Why Healthy Skin Matters
Between ultraviolet rays, harsh winds, dry conditions, germs, and other environmental stressors, your skin faces daily challenges. It’s important to recognize that your skin is your body’s first line of defense against external threats. Maintaining a consistent skin care routine can do more than enhance your complexion – it can play a key role in supporting your overall health.
Here are just a few potential advantages of healthy skin:
- Protection against external damage (e.g. bacteria, chemicals, and environmental hazards)
- Regulation of body temperature to encourage internal balance
- Sensory perception, alerting the body to potential dangers
- Vitamin D synthesis, which is essential for bone health and immune function
- Early detection of health problems1
