The Secret To Glowing Skin

With the latest at-home facial peels and a few key makeup moves, you’ll flash your best and brightest complexion.

You don’t often think about cell turnover, but that behind-the-scenes process determines your skin’s luminosity. “The reason skin looks so bright in your teens is that it doesn’t have mounds of dead cells on its surface,” says Dr Neal Schultz, a dermatologist from the US. “At that age, dead skin cells fall off every 28 days. But by adulthood, some cells hold on for 40, 50, 60 days.” Not only does skin look duller from those old cells, but slower cell turnover also triggers less collagen production, resulting in a loss of firmness and more wrinkles. Luckily, there’s a way to turn up your turnover and get your glow back: An at-home peel.
