Decoding the Science Behind Skin Tightness

Researchers at Stanford have uncovered the mechanism behind the sensation of skin tightness after using cleansers and the relief felt after moisturization. The study found that cleansers strip lipids, causing the skin's outer layer to contract, while moisturizers increase water content, leading to swelling. These mechanical changes affect mechanoreceptors below the skin, which send signals to the brain, interpreted as skin tightness. The researchers were able to predict skin tightness based on changes in the stratum corneum and their analysis correlated closely with human trials. This understanding could help improve skincare formulations and potentially be applied to non-verbal communication devices.

Dermatologists' tips for preventing and treating razor burn

Experts provide tips on how to avoid razor burn, a common skin irritation caused by improper shaving techniques. They recommend using a sharp, clean razor and shaving cream or gel with emollients to minimize friction and moisturize the skin. After shaving, it is important to moisturize with products containing hydrocortisone and emollients to soothe and hydrate the skin. To treat razor burn, products like Cortizone-10 Maximum Strength Anti-Itch Creme, Aquaphor Healing Ointment, and CeraVe Moisturizing Cream are recommended. Proper shaving techniques include softening the skin with warm water, exfoliating gently, shaving in the direction of hair growth, and moisturizing afterwards.

Top Moisturizers for Tretinoin Users, According to a Dermatologist

Dermatologists recommend pairing tretinoin with a moisturizer to prevent damage to the skin barrier. Tretinoin is a strong retinoid used to treat acne, fine lines, and dark spots. It is important to use a moisturizer that suits your skin type and to start slow when using tretinoin. Those with dry skin may tolerate lotion formulas of tretinoin. Retinoids make skin more sun-sensitive, so daily sunscreen is crucial.
