Why We Age & Why we Don't have to !
Our skin is the largest organ in the body. It is the armour that protects our internal world from the external world. It has a language of its own and is constantly communicating with us by showing us visual changes on its surface. Skin problems manifest because there is something happening inside the body that reflects in our outward appearance. Fine lines are one of these changes and the message is clear that the skin is dehydrated.
Most of us when we hear the word dehydration we think lack of water and yes, you would be correct. However the lack of water is only part of the story. The effects of what the lack of water does to the skin cell are a little more complex.
