Does your skin feel paper-like rather than plump? As we get older, the skin can become thinner and more fragile, and look crepe-like. If you want to get rid of crepe skin, Eminence Organics is here to help.
What is Crepey Skin?
Crepey skin is characterized by its fragile and thin texture, similar to fine wrinkled paper. While it resembles more common fine lines and wrinkles, this type of skin tends to appear over larger areas and emerge where the skin is most fragile, such as under the eyes and on the upper inner arms.
What causes Crepey Skin?
Aging, sun damage and lack of moisture All contribute to changes in skin texture, including the development of crepe skin. With age, our body produces less collagen and elastin – the proteins that give the skin its firmness and elasticity. Over time, exposure to UV rays helps break down collagen and elastin, making the skin sagging, thinner, and wrinkled. And our skin produces less oil with age, which contributes to drier and paperier skin.
How to get rid of Crepey Skin
According to Healthline: "The earlier you treat crepe skin, the easier it is to make a noticeable change in appearance, texture, thickness and support." Here's how to adjust your Eminence Organics skin care routine to improve the appearance of this skin problem:
1. Exfoliate regularly
Livestrong recommends exfoliating the skin every night with a product that contains AHAs that help dissolve dead skin cells, moisturize the skin, and fade the appearance of fine lines. We recommend the Acin Peeling Peeling by Eminence Organics Firm Skin, which both deeply hydrates and minimizes the visible signs of aging for firm-looking skin.
