AmLactin's® Leading Cosmetic Dermatologist Says: The Solution to Softness is More Than Skin Deep, Healthy Habits Help
MAPLE GROVE, Minn., Dec. 4, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Your skin is responsible for more than just keeping your organs in place. In fact, your skin is the body's largest organ, requiring both internal and external care to maintain proper function. Topical products cannot counteract the effects that lax skin care and poor nutrition have on skin. Soft, glowing skin starts from the inside by practicing healthy habits, while proper skin care and a twice daily application of an alpha-hydroxy rich lotion or cream, like AmLactin®, maintains softness on the outside.

"The great variety of products and countless 'beauty tips' available to the modern woman can be overwhelming, causing skin care to seem exceedingly complicated," said New York Cosmetic Dermatologist, Dr. Doris Day. "If I had to narrow it down to one rule, it would be to strike a healthy balance—especially if you suffer from dry skin. Drinking plenty of water and loading up on fruits and vegetables nourishes skin from the inside, while using a moisturizer containing alpha-hydroxy therapy, like AmLactin® moisturizing lotion and cream, helps prevent dryness and irritation on the surface."
To look and feel your best at every life stage, it's important to know the internal and external elements that contribute to dry skin. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle by staying hydrated and eating a balanced diet provides skin with valuable nutrients and ensures your body is getting the fuel it needs to remain active. Regular exercise improves circulation and reduces stress, both of which contribute to healthy skin. It's important to shower immediately after working out and follow up with a moisturizer that contains alpha-hydroxy acid, like AmLactin®.
