INNA CODRU , SEPTEMBER 21, 2018

It is the duty of our skin, in particular, to be able to acclimatize correctly to the new environment, temperature, humidity, etc. As a good worker, this body will do its best to let you know when it needs more support. The only problem is that this intercourse can often manifest itself as rashes, dryness, or sudden onset of sensitivity, and this problem can get worse over time. Therefore, if we want the skin to take care of our health, then we will take care of the health of the skin itself.

The good news is that one of the most beautiful things about skin that we all know about is that it can heal itself. Therefore, the most important thing you need to do is to learn to understand exactly how and in what case this happens, so that healthy and beautiful skin becomes your calling card.

One of the most common culprits for skin problems in most of the clients of beauty salons is their mobile phones. While social networking, checking email, playing games and using other apps, people spend an average of five hours a day holding onto their smartphones. All sorts of nutrition, diet and health apps can be easily downloaded to your phone, but unfortunately skin science doesn't progress as fast as Android or IOS updates. But recent research confirms that phones and smartphones have a profound effect on the largest organ in our body.

Let's try today to pay attention to the reasons why your phone can be called the culprit of a sudden skin imbalance. And let's see how we can quickly fix the situation:

CIRCADAL RHYTHM SLEEP DISTURBANCE

If you have not downloaded a blue light blocker for your smartphone, or if you do not set it to “night mode” at night, your phone screen will emit blue (another name is “blue”) light. Blue light is a range of the visible light spectrum, defined as having a wavelength between 450 and 495 nm, which is very close to violet in its spectrum and yet considered a short wavelength.

The potential damage that prolonged exposure to light with these characteristics can have begins with the increased retinal sensitivity it can cause. This is starting to interfere with our body's ability to release the right amount of the hormone melatonin so that our bodies can naturally de-stress during sleep. In turn, this light can disrupt our circadian rhythms, tricking our subconscious into feeling like we are still heavily awake and working rather than curling up and getting ready for sleep. This lack of rest can show up on the condition and appearance of your skin, making it look dull, tired, and aging.

Solution . There are many things you can do to protect yourself from this blue "phone" light. This includes purchasing some protection, such as blue light-blocking glasses, or setting the necessary settings on your devices to go into "night mode" at certain times to protect your eyes from excess blue light. You can also download a blue light blocker like f.lux for your desktop computer.

It is also very important to maintain an immune-boosting diet rich in antioxidants to reduce the potential impact of oxidative stress. Regardless of your work schedule, it's important to set boundaries for yourself by deciding to limit your use of smartphones and other devices as much as possible, especially before bed and immediately after waking up.

VECTORS OF BACTERIA

Since our hands are constantly in contact with the screens of our smartphones, and besides that, they come into contact with many other devices and objects (door handles, bank cards, money, etc.), not to mention the fact that many people take their phones with them to the bathroom and the toilet, an invisible but significant amount of all kinds of bacteria, can begin to accumulate on the screen of your mobile device. Although many of you are accustomed to cleaning your phone screens daily, bacteria still do their job.

Over time, dirt, liquids, bacteria, and many other substances can get into and settle into the microscopic crevices of your phone, so it's important to keep them clean as well. If this is not done, then all this set of accumulated bacteria can migrate to the hands, and then to the face, and cause contact dermatitis, which can manifest itself as a small rash on the skin or an excess accumulation of comedones (clogged skin pores), which will further lead to to acne and blemishes.

Solution . Start by determining what materials your phone or smartphone is made of. This will help you find the best solution for daily cleaning. If you have a rubber phone case, then remove it and wash it with liquid dish soap and wipe it with a warm damp soft cloth. If you have a fabric case, try using an old toothbrush to gently clean the surface, and if possible, just launder it gently. Another safe and quick way is to use isopropyl alcohol by soaking or spraying it.

As already mentioned, many people carry their mobile devices around with them, and use them in the toilets and bathrooms and in the kitchen, and in many other places with a large accumulation of bacteria. In addition, not everyone has the habit of washing their hands between such visits, and many do not even think about the fact that it is advisable to periodically clean your smartphone. Therefore, bacteria have a great chance to increase and strengthen their colonies. Therefore, cleaning the surfaces of your mobile device daily, or at least weekly, will greatly reduce the chances of a buildup of aggressive bacteria over time.

WHEN YOU TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF, DON'T BE DISTURBED TO "EMPTY"

If you take a holistic approach to skin care into account, emotional well-being plays a fairly important role in maintaining skin health. Skin care includes some care for your nervous system, which will help to achieve, for example, optimal blood supply to the skin of the face.

Solution . Again, try to train yourself not to grab your smartphone as soon as you rub your eyes in the morning, and it's also useful to train yourself to avoid using mobile devices when you go to bed. All this can really make a huge difference.

The availability of vast amounts of information through our smartphones and the Internet can encourage us to sit online for hours on end and compare our lives with the lives of other people, which can make us feel like we are less important than we really are. You begin to feel a certain anxiety that your life is not as interesting and rich as that of other people, although this is far from being the case. And experiences never led to anything good, including the condition of our skin.

Such unreasonable worries have a negative effect on the nervous system and, as a result, on the skin. Do not neglect your health and mental health in particular, so do not compare yourself with others, this is a pointless activity - do yourself a favor and use your smartphone for more fruitful activities. Follow these guidelines and cherish who you are, and your skin will thank you for it.

"TEXT-NECK" SYNDROME

Text-Neck or "text-neck" syndrome is exactly what happens when a person is with their neck constantly bowed to a smartphone. This is how this syndrome develops, as a result of which there is a constant pain in the neck, which gradually arises due to the fact that we constantly tilt our necks in front of our smartphones, computers, tablets.

Medical schools teach that the neck is a funnel that connects the lymphatic systems of the head and face to the rest of the body. The experience of working with clients of most doctors suggests that the correct work of the neck helps to avoid the appearance of pain in the neck and headaches, and also AFFECTS HEALTHY SKIN COLOR. Why? Because the neck is a highway from the internal organs to the face - if it is constantly tense or blocked, then the lymphatic system and the blood supply system cannot supply the skin with beneficial compounds and substances as they should.

Solution . You can easily prevent the problems associated with "text neck" syndrome by avoiding osteochondrosis and discoloration of the skin by using the correct posture while working with your mobile device. Yes, it is correct posture that is the most obvious and correct way that will help both prevent danger and help eliminate problems that have already arisen.
