We spend nearly one-third of our day at our workplace. However, most women fail to realize the damage incurred by their skin at office. In fact, taking good care of their skin at office is one of the prime skin concerns of working women. It gets very difficult to maintain a fresh face all day long and what is more daunting is to make sure your skin is well protected and looks good until the evening.

Here are some factors that impact the skin along with tips to take care of your skin at office and make sure you look as fresh in the evening as you look when you walk into the office in the morning!

Stingy Air

Just as fresh air is good for the skin, indoor air is bad for it, especially if your office building has been designed for energy efficiency. In that case, there would be only one air supply that carries air filtered though miles of ducts. This means that you are sharing your air with everyone else. The lack of fresh air combined with the drying effects of indoor heat and air conditioning has severe impact on the skin and makes it dry and itchy.

Skin Care Tips

Apply Skin Serums
After you have a shower, apply a topical serum that protects your face from free radical damage and other environmental stressors. You can try using iS Clinical Super Serum Advance that contains a blend of vitamins and antioxidants.

Moisturize
Apply a good moisturizer that suits your skin type and also forms a barrier on the skin in order to lock in the moisture. Make sure you apply the moisturizer before your make-up for a better result. You can try the Kinerase Cream. It is an anti-aging cream that improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and increases the skin's capacity to retain moisture. NIA 24 Skin Strengthening Complex is yet another great product. It is a superb cream that is neither too light nor too heavy. There is a visible reduction in wrinkles and fine lines with regular use. This is because it enhances the barrier function of your skin and accelerates the repair process by supplying moisture.

Use Sunscreen
Don't let the office environment be an excuse to skip sunscreen. The UV rays of the sun can penetrate through windows and they can also affect you when you are commuting to work. Therefore, make sure you wear sunscreen at all times irrespective of the place. Try Nia 24 Sun Damage Prevention SPF 30

Drink Water
Water helps to keep your body hydrated and it further shows on your skin. Ideally, you should drink about six to eight glasses of water in a day.

No Time from Work

This is perhaps the most popular reason quoted by women for their failure to take good care of their skin at the office. You are never to busy to look beautiful! Follow a skin care routine that is easy as well as effective. A great idea is to look for multi-tasking products!

Use a Cleanser
No matter how simple and concise your skin care regimen is, the first step should definitely be effective cleansing. Get hold of a good cleanser that deep cleanses your skin pores and removes all the impurities without leaving your skin dry. Look for one that has anti-acneic properties as well. Try Obagi C-Cleansing Gel that gently conditions the skin with Vitamin C and removes all signs of make-up, oil residues and accumulated impurities leaving your skin fresh and clean.

Use Double Duty Products
Instead of having many products for different skim concerns, consider using double duty products that will not only save you time but also save you lots of effort. A great pick would be La Roche Posay Anthelios SX. It is a non-greasy moisturizer and Sunscreen all in one and offers Broad Spectrum (UVA/UVB) protection.
