Acne Resource Center - Dry Skin and Acne Dry Skin and Acne There are basically three types of skin: oily , dry and normal. All types of skin are susceptible to acne and the degree of severity depends on various conditions. A large percentage of people have all three types on their face and other parts of their bodies requiring different care for each type. A person with dry skin does not escape acne and winter is the worse time for their outbreaks. Even though acne is more prevalent under the skin rather than on the surface for these skin types, a daily regimen of skin care needs to be followed. As the seasons change so does the skin condition. In the winter moisture is scarce due to the drop in humidity and temperature. Combined with indoor heating and environment, the skin becomes even more dry and irritated. The skin begins itching and flaking around the mouth, nose, shoulders and buttocks. In more severe cases there is cracking of the skin leaving it vulnerable to bacteria and increase of acne. A daily routine of adding moisture to the skin will help offset this problem. Hot showers and baths remove moisture from the skin and should be avoided. The drier your skin, the more you need to use moisturizer. Read the labels to find ingredients including glycerin, mineral oil, linoleic acid or ceramides. For best results apply the moisturizer within five minutes of stepping out of the shower or bath to avoid further drying of the skin. Taking care of dry skin in the summer requires a change in daily routine. The air is more humid and the skin absorbs the moisture better. Sweat and the heat make pores softer, pulling in more bacteria and liquid. At this point, some retinoids should be included in the daily routine, but should be covered with a moisturizer cream and strong sunscreen. Retinoids reduce oil and bacteria that cause acne but can also dry the skin. As an added benefit, retinoids also reduce lines, wrinkles and sunspots in dry skinned people. Tips for setting up a routine. For people with dry skin acne, there are treatments that can be done at home to relieve the flaky skin that appears: In the morning cleanse the skin with an oil-free toner that removes any makeup or lotions left on the skin. Then the person should pat the face and other parts of the body and not rub. Applying a hydrating moisturizer with a sterile gauze square or spray pump helps. Do not use fingers as the bacteria may spread. Even if your skin is dry you will want to use a foundation on your face that is oil-free. A mistake by acne-infected teenagers and adults is in attempting to cover up their blemish with a heavier coat of makeup. This exacerbates the problem. Stick with using a lighter coat; cleanse and apply it more often throughout the day if you wish. Among the oil-free cosmetics you should use are shadow and eyeliner. Acne can find its way to your eyelids and surrounding area that will become unsightly as well as painful. If the makeup increases the need to scratch those itchy spots, keep your bacteria carrying hands away. Instead, use a sterile cloth or gauze and rub gently. If your makeup soaks into your skin and your face becomes visibly dry, use some gel containing ingredients such as glycerin to hydrate that portion of the skin. In the evening, cleanse your skin the same as in your morning routine and then exfoliate. You can acquire exfoliating creams over the counter or from cosmetic suppliers. Exfoliating removes the flakes and scales left on your skin. If you have excessive clogged skin, exfoliate at least three times a week either the entire face or the portions that are affected. Scientists have not proven that dry skin is more prone to scarring than other skin types. But they have found that scarring is closely related to the type of skin you have inherited. They have also discovered that scarring is caused because the blemish was not allowed to heal properly. Acne can leave behind two different types of scarring on both the dry or oily skinned person. The first is the ice-pick scars - deep rough holes in the skin. The second is pigmented scars, which leave a purplish-brown mark at first, and several months later may turn white with raised scar tissue on the surface. If a person is bothered by the disfiguration, they may want to consider an over the counter face peel and if that does not produce satisfactory results in two to three months, then it is time to consult a dermatologist for solutions. The most important thing to remember is to keep the skin moisturized and clean. Truderma Acne Treatment Comes with a risk free money back guarantee. Works Fast. Got Acne? Want Results?

Not only can outside air dry out your skin, but indoor air can damage it as well. The average humidity of a centrally heated home or office is as low as 10%. Dry air robs moisture from your skin, causing fine lines, roughness, chapping, scaliness - even irritation. Tips: Begin with the bath - To protect the skin, keep baths and showers short, and the water temperature warm, not hot. After the bath, seal in precious body moisture by patting yourself dry (don't rub). While skin is still warmer and slightly damp, apply a body oil and then a lotion. (We recommend BOTANICAL BODY OIL, an aromatherapy treatment of ten essential oils that absorbs quickly and counteracts dryness, followed by BOTANICAL BODY MOISTURIZER). Give Your Face the Attention It Deserves When your face is exposed to the harsh outdoors, cleanse with a moisturizing cleanser and tone with an alcohol-free toner. Prepare skin to face the day by applying SKIN-CELL REGENERATOR to damp skin, followed by moisturizers. In harshest weather, add a second layer of moisturizer. Always use moisturizers containing humectants - ingredients that have the unique ability to draw moisture from the atmosphere and bind it to the skin. Lips produce neither oil nor moisture. To prevent damage, wear a lip protector with Vitamin E, such as LANTERNSHINE. The area around the eyes is the first to show signs of aging (don't we know it!) and environmental stress. Apply EYE SOFT for protection and reapply as needed throughout day. Protect Your Skin from the Elements To compensate for water loss while indoors, spritz the MOISTURE MIST during the day. Absolutely drink eight glasses of water each day and supplement with clear soups and herb teas. Remember that coffee, tea, alcoholic drinks and caffeinated colas are very dehydrating. Before blow drying hair, apply moisturizer to face and neck. Aim dryer away from exposed skin. If scalp is dry, avoid the blow dryer for a day or two. Boost the air's water content with certain water-loving plants. Areca palm, ficus and ferns are cheery in winter and help keep skin moist. When flying, offset the drying cabin air with a spritz of MOISTURE MIST every half-hour. Spot treat with FOOT AND LEG THERAPY CREAM to moisturize the hands. Drink as much water as possible on the plane and bring healthy snacks of fruit and whole-grain bread. Before heading outdoors, apply protective layers of WALKABOUT SUNBLOCK #25 Sunblock Moisturizer to the temples, forehead, cheekbones and nose. Then lavish an even layer onto the entire face. Finish with foundation. Reapply sunblock throughout the day. The Golden Door Skin Care line has a product for each of the tips above.

Exfoliation is the ideal way to banish those winter blues. And because Dove's exfoliating bar and bodywash use only the gentlest ingredients, you can enjoy this feeling every day. Why exfoliate? Our skin naturally and regularly sheds its outer layer, but the resulting buildup can leave skin with a dull, flaky finish. Clogged pores can block moisturisers from nourishing our skin and our once silky-smooth, beautiful skin can start to look dry and dehydrated. Not exactly the skin you want to reveal on the beach this summer! Washing daily with a washcloth will remove some of the dead skin cells, but an additional treatment is best. That's where exfoliation can come to the rescue. Benefits of exfoliating Beyond removing those pesky dead skin cells, exfoliation provides benefits even the most luxurious spa in the world would be proud to offer. It can: Improve the texture of your skin Make your skin look more radiant Help reduce lines and wrinkles Reveal healthier-looking skin below Remove pore-clogging dirt Help prevent acne outbreaks Allow moisturisers to penetrate your skin more deeply Many exfoliating products and scrubs on the market today employ harsh chemicals or abrasives like nutshells, pumice stone and glycolic acid. But not Dove. Its exfoliating bar and bodywash contain uniquely formulated blue micro beads and tests have shown they are gentle enough to use every day to smooth away dull lifeless cells and reveal beautifully fresh new skin. And Dove's exfoliating bar and bodywash contain Dove's patented 1/4 moisturising cream to help replenish your skin and make it silk smooth.

FDA Consumer: Alpha Hydroxy Acids for Skin Care: SmoothSailing or Rough Seas? U. S. Food and Drug Administration FDA Consumer March - April 1998; Revised May 1999 Alpha Hydroxy Acids for Skin Care Smooth Sailing or Rough Seas? by Paula Kurtzweil Baby boomers and others who once sought the sun's rays with little thought of skin damage are now paying the price--billions of dollars annually for cosmetics containing alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs). Derived from fruit and milk sugars and served up in creams and lotions, AHAs attract customers with their supposed ability to reduce wrinkles, spots, and other signs of aging, sun-damaged skin. Some scientific evidence suggests they may work. But are these products safe? Since 1989, the Food and Drug Administration has received more than 100 reports of adverse reactions in people using AHA products. Their complaints included severe redness, swelling (especially in the area of the eyes), burning, blistering, bleeding, rash, itching, and skin discoloration. FDA believes reactions from AHAs are probably even more widespread. Past experience suggests that for every adverse reaction report the agency receives, the manufacturer receives 50 to 100. "This would translate into approximately 10,000 adverse reactions being received for AHA-containing products," says John Bailey, Ph.D., acting director of FDA's Office of Cosmetics and Colors. Also, their relative newness (they've been widely available only since about 1992) means that their long-term effects are unknown. An industry-sponsored study found that people who use AHA products have greater sensitivity to sun, raising the specter of greater risk of photoaging and skin cancer. "There are many unanswered questions in front of us," Bailey says. "AHAs are unlike anything else ever introduced onto the cosmetic market on such a wide scale. They are not your traditional cosmetics." In spring 1997, the National Toxicology Program of the National Institute of Environmental Science accepted FDA's proposal to study AHA safety. While FDA awaits the results, expected by the year 2000, the agency is cautioning consumers to take extra care with AHA products: for example, avoiding the sun when possible, otherwise using adequate sun protection, and reporting adverse reactions immediately to doctors or FDA directly. "These are very, very popular products," Bailey says. "Very little about the process restricts their sale. And it's a somewhat alarming idea to put acids on the skin. It raises obvious safety questions." AHAs Are Everywhere AHA cosmetics are believed to have derived from the "chemical peels" that dermatologists and plastic surgeons have used for years. The peels, typically trichloroacetic acid, phenol, resorcinol, and salicylic acid, help remove undesirable signs of skin aging, such as discoloration, roughness and wrinkling. The chemicals cause the skin to lose its outer layer, or peel off, revealing a fresher-looking layer of skin. Known as chemical exfoliation, the procedure is done in doctors' offices so that doctors can control the process and prevent deep skin burns from the highly acidic solutions. Cosmetic manufacturers began to market similar but milder versions of these chemical peels containing AHAs for salon and at-home use around 1989. They quickly caught on, and by 1992, mass marketing had begun. Today, says Lisa Berger, a cosmetic sales manager for a Hecht Co. department store in Washington, D.C., "every [cosmetic company] has AHA products. There used to be only three product lines; now there are 20." The AHAs used most often in cosmetics are glycolic acid and lactic acid, although there are others, and many are used in combination. Increasingly, says Zoe Draelos, M.D., a dermatologist in High Point, N.C., manufacturers are using poly-AHAs, which have larger molecules, and ingredients such as salicylic acid. According to Draelos, who consults for several large U.S. cosmetic companies, these products may produce less skin irritation. Typically, AHA products sold to consumers have an AHA concentration of 10 percent or less. The concentration of AHA products used by trained cosmetologists may run between 20 and 30 percent, while those used by doctors can range from 50 to 70 percent. Though sold to consumers mainly in face and body creams and lotions, AHAs also can be found to a lesser degree in other cosmetics, such as shampoos and cuticle softeners. Available everywhere, from discount pharmacies to fine department stores, the products typically range in price from a few dollars to as much as $60 a bottle. Product Status Some in the cosmetic industry have suggested that AHA products are more than simple cosmetics, coining the term "cosmeceutical" to describe them instead. Under the 1938 Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, cosmetics are defined as "articles intended to be rubbed, poured, sprinkled, or sprayed on, introduced into, or otherwise applied to the human body or any part thereof for cleansing, beautifying, promoting attractiveness, or altering the appearance." Drugs are defined as products intended for treating or preventing disease and affecting the structure or any function of the body. They are subject to premarket review and approval; cosmetics are not. "The term 'cosmeceutical' is not recognized by law," Bailey says. "These products, depending on their intended use, would be regulated either as cosmetics, drugs, or both as cosmetics and drugs." FDA has a particular concern about AHAs because, unlike traditional cosmetics, AHAs seem capable of penetrating the skin barrier. In reviewing the limited data on AHAs, FDA concluded in a 1996 report that certain formulations of AHA products can affect the skin in a manner similar to that of chemical peels--that is, increasing cell turnover rate and decreasing the thickness of the outer skin. The effect depends on the product's pH level (a measure of its acidity), the AHA concentration, and the AHA vehicle cream, as well as how the product is used (for example, frequency of use and where on the skin it is applied). Sun Sensitivity An additional concern arose as FDA prepared its 1996 report on AHA safety: Some people who had reported adverse reactions cited increased sun sensitivity. In addition, one industry-sponsored study found that participants whose skin was exposed to 4 percent glycolic acid twice daily for 12 weeks developed minimal skin redness with 13 percent less ultraviolet (UV) radiation exposure than normal. Three participants developed minimal redness with 50 percent less UV exposure than normal. Another study that looked at the effects of glycolic acid on production of sunburn cells (markers for UV-induced skin damage) found that people who received the AHA product in the presence of UV radiation experienced twice the cell damage in areas where the AHA had been applied than those who were treated with the non-AHA product. FDA's concern is that people who are sensitive to sunlight may be particularly susceptible to UV rays, which can damage the skin and, over a long period, can cause skin cancer. In 1997, the Cosmetic Ingredient Review Panel--the cosmetic industry's self-regulatory body for reviewing and addressing safety of cosmetic ingredients--concluded that the AHA's glycolic acid and lactic acid and their related chemical compounds are safe for use in products intended for consumer use when: the AHA concentration is 10 percent or less the final product has a pH of 3.5 or greater (lower numbers indicate greater acidity) the final product is formulated in such a way that it protects the skin from increased sun sensitivity or its package directions tell consumers to use sunscreen products. For AHA products used by trained cosmetologists, the Cosmetic Ingredient Review Panel concluded that formulations of glycolic acid and lactic acid at concentrations of 30 percent or less and a pH of 3.0 or greater intended for only "brief" use at one time followed by thorough rinsing and daily use of sun protection are safe. The panel's conclusions actually serve as guidelines for cosmetic manufacturers, Bailey says. "This means that each manufacturer of an AHA product should conduct appropriate testing on their products to measure whether or not the product increases the sensitivity of the user to UV radiation and, if so, should add sun protection to their product and warn consumers to take extra steps to protect themselves at all times." Meanwhile, FDA continues to study AHA safety. Later this year, scientists with the National Toxicology Program and FDA will use hairless mice to study the effect of AHAs on the risk of cancer associated with sunlight and UV radiation. The study will run for about three years. Depending on the outcome of FDA's investigation, Bailey says, the agency may or may not take action against AHA products. "The absence of action by FDA to date doesn't mean that there won't be any in the future." Use with Care Considering the questionable safety status, FDA and dermatologists advise consumers who use AHA products to follow these precautions: Always protect your skin before going out during the day. Use a sunscreen product with an SPF (Sun Protection Factor) of at least 15. Wear a hat with a brim of at least 4 inches (about 10 centimeters). Cover up with lightweight, loose-fitting, long-sleeved shirts and pants. Buy products with adequate label information: for example, a list of ingredients to see which AHA or other chemical acids are in the product; the name and address of the manufacturer or distributor, which can serve as the contact if a problem or question arises; and a statement about the product's AHA concentration and pH level. The first two pieces of information are mandatory; the third is optional. Consumers can call or write the manufacturer, however, to get information about a product's AHA concentration and pH level. Buy only products that comply with the Cosmetic Ingredient Review Panel's 1997 recommendations--that is, products with an AHA concentration of 10 percent or less and a pH of 3.5 or greater. Do a skin-sensitivity test on a patch of skin if you are a first-time user of any AHA product or are using a different brand or a product with a different concentration or pH than you are used to. Stop using the product immediately if you experience adverse reactions. Signs of adverse reactions include stinging, redness, itching, burning, pain, and bleeding or change in sun sensitivity. Even mild irritation is a sign that the product is causing damage, FDA's Bailey says, despite what the manufacturer may indicate on the product label. "Cosmetics shouldn't sting or cause irritation," he says. If you have an adverse reaction, see a dermatologist. A dermatologist can tell you whether an adverse reaction is from the product or is an indication of an underlying disease, such as skin cancer. Dermatologists also can recommend appropriate skin-care products, and they will report your case, keeping your name confidential, to FDA's adverse reaction monitoring program. You also can report your adverse reaction yourself to FDA. Reports can be made to local FDA offices, listed in the Blue Pages of the phone book or to FDA's1ffice of Consumer Affairs at 1-800-532-4440 . + Have the label and any other packaging information on hand. Be prepared to give the name of the product, the name and address of the manufacturer or distributor, and any identifiable product code numbers. Also be prepared to state where and when you bought the product, if you can remember, and whether you saw a doctor. "We'd like to know about it even if it's only a mild reaction," Bailey says. Bailey adds that these precautions are important until AHAs' safety is better known. "We are told that AHAs are here to stay," he says. "But they are not reviewed for safety before they are put on the market. And we don't have enough information to say that they are safe." Paula Kurtzweil is a member of FDA's public affairs staff. Ingredient Terms Here are some ingredient terms that indicate a cosmetic contains alpha or beta hydroxy acids. Alpha hydroxy acids: glycolic acid lactic acid glycolic acid + ammonium glycolate alpha-hydroxyethanoic acid + ammonium alpha-hydroxyethanoate alpha-hydroxyoctanoic acid alpha-hydroxycaprylic acid hydroxycaprylic acid mixed fruit acid triple fruit acid tri-alpha hydroxy fruit acids sugar cane extract alpha hydroxy and botanical complex L-alpha hydroxy acid glycomer in crosslinked fatty acids alpha nutrium Beta hydroxy acids: salicylic acid * beta hydroxybutanoic acid tropic acid trethocanic acid Alpha and beta hydroxy acids: malic acid citric acid * From a chemist's perspective,salicylic acid is not a true BHA.However, cosmetic companies often refer to it as a BHA and,consequently, many consumers think of it as one. Approved Treatments for Signs of Aging, Sun-Damaged Skin These are the only products that have been studied for safety and effectiveness and approved by FDA for treating signs of sun-damaged or aging skin: Renova (tretinoin emollient cream). This vitamin A derivative, available by prescription only, is approved for mitigating of fine wrinkles and mottled darkened spots and roughness of facial skin in people whose skin does not improve with regular skin care and use of sun protection. Renova does not eliminate wrinkles, repair sun-damaged skin, or restore skin to its healthier younger structure. Also, the safety of daily Renova use for longer than 48 weeks has not been established, and it should not be used by women who are pregnant or trying to become pregnant. Renova has not been studied in people 50 and older or in people with moderately or darkly pigmented skin. Carbon dioxide (CO2) and Erbium:YAG (Er:YAG) lasers. These medical devices are approved for treating wrinkles. The procedure requires removal of facial skin in a layer-by-layer manner. It is performed under anesthesia by a doctor in an outpatient surgical setting. --P.K.
