The skin’s importance is often overlooked by about a half of the world’s population – mostly men – although this is rapidly changing. Even so, most of those who do worry about their skin are mainly interested in the areas that show like the face, neck and hands.
However, the skin is not only the largest organ on the body (human or otherwise), it is also the membrane that literally holds us together. On a recent visit to a dermatologist, I described a small cut on my hand as ‘nothing serious’. The dermatologist’s response surprised me. “Your skin is not only there to keep bodily fluids in”, he said, “but to keep pathogens out. Every time that barrier is damaged, it makes it easier for bacteria to get in. Bacteria can cause infections such as sepsis and blood poisoning which can be irreversible and so lethal”. I am no longer so blasé about nicks and scratches as I once was in my silly, macho male way.
Skin is also very sensitive to what is going on beneath it, which means that acne, pimples, dry or oily skin are early warnings of underlying problems. The problem for most people is that they treat the symptoms – the outbreak – rather than the underlying cause. This is hardly surprising, since skin care companies make hundreds of billions from selling creams, potions and lotions to mask these symptoms. This effectively allows the condition to continue.
Having said that, continuous, regular skin care started from an early age is a good thing. However, you need impartial information from a specialist before deciding what kind of skin care regimen to follow. Just doing what one’s parents do, or gathering a basketful of products from the local pharmacy is not good enough.
Do your own research, and ask the right people, before you decide on how to protect yourself.

What To Do If You Suffer From Skin Allergies
Are you reacting to something? Occasionally, people are reacting, but do not know it, because an allergy can show a reaction externally, say, on your skin or internally, say in your lungs or throat. You may become allergic to practically anything including yourself, although that condition is very rare fortunately.
The most prevalent sign of an allergic reaction is a skin rash, which is normally red and occasionally very itchy too. You could apply a cream or some kind, but the only truly effective way of countering it is to eradicate the cause and the first step to doing this is finding out what you are reacting to.
So, take notice and take notes on when you see your allergic reaction. Is it usually in the summer? Is it after eating? Is it after playing with the dog? Is it when you sit near the bird cage? Is it when you do the housework? These all involve common allergens.
By the way, in case you are thinking about it: most people are allergic to housework (or do not like doing it), but I am talking about the dust that doing housework throws up, not the actual work itself.
In fact. the most widespread allergen is dust, because the majority of house dust is made up of skin, both human and insect. Dust attracts dust mites and people are frequently allergic to them as well.
Other particles in dust may be soil, pollutants, smoke, paper, fabric and stone. Coal dust is especially harmful, as coal miners can substantiate. However, for most people, pollen and dust mites are the main difficulty. Pollen is usually more ubiquitous in the summer.
Another prime cause of rash at home is detergent. If you have been using the same laundry powder for years and then change brands, your body might react to the new chemical mix in the new powder. The same could be true of shampoo and make-up.
There are recognised procedures for discovering what you are reacting to. Your physician or a dermatologist can help find your allergen the most quickly, but you can buy DIY kits and get advice at the chemist’s as well.
