At DERMI we talk a lot about achieving healthy skin – but what does healthy skin actually look like?
Forbes estimates that the average American sees more than 4,000 ads per day. How many of those ads showcase a woman with smooth and poreless skin, no matter how old she is?
With all we are exposed to today, it can be hard to know what healthy skin looks like. Contrary to popular belief, it isn’t possible to have skin like a newborn baby or skin that is poreless. The ads we see are deceiving, so today I’m going to share what healthy skin is and how it varies from person to person. Here are 5 ways to recognize what healthy skin looks and feels like.

Healthy skin does not have breaks on its surface. Sometimes cracks and breaks occur from dryness, vitamin deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, or other skin issues. For example, eczema and acne can also cause broken skin. If you have persistent cracks or breaks in your skin, it is important to get to the root cause.
If you have minor cuts or scrapes on your skin, you can use topicals to help heal skin naturally like comfrey and vitamin E. For open wounds, be sure to clean them thoroughly and seek medical attention if they don’t heal or you develop redness that spreads. Taking vitamin C and zinc orally can help speed up wound healing.
No matter what tone your skin is, healthy skin will have a consistent color and even skin tone. Sometimes skin discoloration is caused by hormonal imbalances or nutritional deficiencies – and it can be embarrassing to deal with hyperpigmentation, uneven skin tone, age spots, or melasma. You may see these issues if you are an Amber skin type.
Oxidative stress may seem unavoidable, but with the right routine, you can protect and repair your skin. Start using antioxidant skincare, shield your skin from the sun, and embrace a healthier lifestyle to reveal a radiant, youthful glow.
