To prevent the spread of COVID-19 (Coronavirus), we are forced to spend much more time indoors than usual. This has both advantages and disadvantages for our skin. On the one hand, we can give you a break from pollution and makeup. However, the time we spend in front of computers, cell phones and other screens is increasing considerably, exposing the skin to a new danger: digital pollution.

Prolonged overexposure to the blue light emitted by the screens of electronic devices can cause symptoms such as dryness, tightness, acne and a dull appearance of the facial complexion.

As if that were not enough, the stress and anxiety generated by cloistering can produce an excess of free radicals that accelerate the loss of elasticity, the appearance of wrinkles and expression lines, flaccidity and blemishes.

The best way to counteract these effects is to establish a daily cleansing and moisturizing routine that ensures the skin receives the nutrients it needs to stay clean and moisturized. Micellar water can help keep the skin free of residues without drying it out, while creams with Hyaluronic Acidare excellent allies to restore the skin’s natural hydration.

As for protection from LED lights, there are options such as CC Creams, which have filters that protect the skin from this kind of pollution while toning it and restoring its radiance.
