6 signs your skin is tired

If you’re feeling exhausted and run down then chances are, it’s showing on your skin. Here are six signs your skin is tired and in some desperate need of some TLC:

  1. Patchy makeup

Are you noticing patches of foundation that just aren’t blending into your skin no matter how hard you try? While the type of foundation you’re using could be the reason, it’s more likely that your skin is dehydrated and/or suffering from dead skin cell build up, which is preventing your foundation from blending and making you look cakey rather than seamless.

  1. Breakouts

Pimples and blackheads are primarily caused when oil and dead skin build-up, blocking your pores. So, if you’re breaking out all the time, it’s time to treat yourself to a treatment like HydraFacial MD to get rid of all that congestion and create a more even canvass.   

  1. Enlarged pores

While our pores naturally expand as we age, we can enlarge our pores before their time through not properly taking care of our skin. Like with breakouts, a build-up of dead skin cells and oil can expand our pores. Again, HydraFacial MD is an excellent treatment to give your skin a good clean, extraction and exfoliation. Add some LED light therapy for an even brighter result.

  1. Skincare not working

If you’re applying your moisturiser and your skin still feels tight afterwards then, chances are, it’s not absorbing properly. Once again, this could come down to the quality of the moisturiser you’re using, but it also could be because your skin’s in need of a good exfoliation to remove dead skin cell build up. A good skin resurfacing treatment like Clear+Brilliant is a great way to gently correct uneven skin texture and tone.

  1. Skin tone is dull and lifeless

Dull and tired skin is a sign of dehydration. First of all, make sure you’re drinking plenty of water. Secondly, look for a revitalising treatment that reintroduces hyaluronic acid back into your skin. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in our bodies that attracts and binds water, resulting in deep hydration.

  1. Fine lines are more prominent

Finally, if you’re noticing fine lines more then, like with the above, your skin is likely lacking hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid plumps and hydrates the skin, smoothing your skin and reducing fine lines and wrinkles. A treatment like skin needling will help to stimulate collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid to help prevent and manage the signs of ageing.
