Martina Gebhardt Intensive Care Caps
Beautiful skin always is an eye catcher. This experience was also made by the Scottish Africanist Mungo Park. Towards the end of the 18th century he travelled the continent that was basically unexplored at that time. The pale Scot was quite a sensation for the natives. Despite tropical heat he wore a lot of clothes. The skin underneath them had the same bright and shiny color as the moon. Several times the brave explorer was guided to the clan chief by the local tribes. In front of him and the other members of the village community he had to strip off his pants. In his travelogue, which became a bestseller in Europe, Mungo Park sweeps this episode of his journey under the table. Influenced by the prudish Victorian England, the explorer was not willing to mention this embarrassment in his memoirs. That certain situation is described all the more entertaining in T.C. Boyle's novel „Water Music“. However one thing is for sure, back then the African tribes were wondering a lot at the pale Europeans. When they rolled up their sleeves while working, their skin turned red after a short time. When the researchers bathed in the river afterwards, you could see their bodies having a funny red and white pattern.
Today, we already know the risks of sun exposure pretty well. Therefore sunburn and sun protection is taken very seriously, since too much sun leaves its marks. And our skin does not forget a thing. It can tell a lot about where we lived and how we lived. So there are truck drivers whose left side of the face looks remarkably older than the right one. As the sun shines right into the face for hours when one is driving by car all day long. While the right side is remaining in the shaded inside of the car, the arms and face on the left side are often exposed to the sun. Without proper sun protection you soon will look old. That is why sunscreen with a sufficiently high sun protection factor is an absolute must in the glove compartment - not only in trucks.
In fact it is relatively easy to protect your skin: you should avoid direct sunlight, counteract dry heating air by frequent ventilation, support your skin with active ingredients and simply live reasonably. This also means to stop smoking, to frequently exercise outside and to get plenty of sleep. In order to retain a youthful skin appearance as long as possible, it is also important to support its moisture balance. One key factor of course is the fluid balance of the body. Those who drink a lot of water, juice and tea and eat a balanced diet, have good chances to support the skin from the inside. Finally, there are factors such as stress or lack of sleep, which often can only be changed to a certain degree. That is exactly why skin care should be a matter of course. The active ingredients of cosmetic products play a key role as well.
