JAKARTA - This dull skin condition can be influenced by several factors including an unhealthy lifestyle, genetic factors, environment, or sun exposure. To overcome the problem of dull skin, there are several ways you can do as below, launched Healthline, Friday 15 July.

Clean Your Face Regularly

This is one of the most basic ways to deal with dull skin problems. Make it a habit to clean your face regularly to avoid the buildup of residual dirt that causes dull skin.

Avoid Hot Water

Hot water can strip your face of natural oils, which can cause dry, red, and irritated skin. Instead, use warm water to rinse your face. Also choose a facial cleanser that contains ingredients such as coconut oil, shea butter, or almond oil to help retain moisture.

Exfoliate

Regular facial exfoliation is highly recommended to overcome the problem of dull skin. Exfoliating can help remove dead skin cells and the remnants of dirt stuck to your skin. In addition, exfoliating can also make your skin look brighter. You can exfoliate 1-2 times a week.

Use Face Mask

Using a face mask two or three times a week can make your skin glow. Look for masks that contain antioxidants, hyaluronic acid, shea butter, or other ingredients that have a moisturizing function. Be sure to read the instructions before using a face mask.

Use Moisturizer

Applying moisturizer twice a day with the right products can help keep your skin healthy and treat many types of dermatitis. Moisturizers can repair and protect the skin barrier from damage. Look for moisturizing products that contain ceramides. The ceramide content can draw water into the epidermis to help tighten the skin and prevent moisture loss.

Use sunscreen

Although many people think that the application of sunscreen actually makes our face look duller, in fact sunscreen can protect our skin from exposure to UV rays which is one of the causes of dull skin problems.

Try to use sunscreen regularly every day before you go outside, or even when you are indoors where your skin is exposed to direct sunlight.
