Skin Care and Ethnicity: Hispanic and Asian Skincare Practices

Skincare News Magazine continues to highlight the importance of ethnic-specific skin care by spotlighting Hispanic and Asian skincare practices.

Sacramento, CA, October 04, 2006 --(PR.com)-- For skincare and ethnicity, educating readers about the importance of ethnic-specific beauty and skin care products goes beyond just addressing the needs of the African-American community. Skincare-News.com’s latest article, “Skin Care & Ethnic Beauty Spelled in 3 Letters: HBC (Pt. II)”, highlights the need for ethnic-specific beauty and skincare products for Hispanics and Asians as well.

This version of the article picks up where it left off by expanding on the diversity within the Hispanic community and what skin care practices they need to be aware of. While Hispanic skin care can be similar to African-Americans, some guidelines transcends all color barriers… practicing the use of sunscreen is one of them: 

Wear Sunscreen. Having dark skin does give you an advantage when it comes to the sun's harmful rays, but being ignorant and not protecting your skin will make you a victim of skin cancer just like anyone else. Wearing sunscreen will also help fight against the common skin care problem of dark spots that can result from hyperpigmentation. 

To the general public, Asian skin seems flawless, smooth and problem-free when it comes to skincare. But as the article points out, that couldn’t be further from the truth. Asian skin is not only acne prone but very sensitive. One of the biggest challenges for Asian women when it comes to beauty and skin care deals with makeup and foundation.

Build Your Foundation. Needless to say, Asian skin tones are more yellow and while more ethnic-specific skincare and makeup products are becoming available, there are still individuals out there who are buying the wrong shade when it comes to powder and foundation. For Asian skin, use a base that is predominantly yellow but not too warm or orange. For Asian skin that is paler, mixing your regular base color with a yellow-based foundation will help you achieve a more natural look.

While finding a good and effective skincare regimen won’t happen overnight, the article goes on to explain why it is necessary to shop around:
It’s not easy to find your miracle skin care product but trial and error is necessary to find items that will benefit your skin in the long run. Treasuredlocks.com advises trying facial skincare products for at least two months to see if it works. If you have acne or other severe skin care problems, consulting with a dermatologist is a better alternative instead of spending hundreds on ineffective products. Once you find a treatment that works for you, create your own daily skin care regimen and stick to it. 

According to skin care expert, Dania Mallette, there was too much information on ethnic-specific skincare to just do only one article. “After I wrote the first article, I felt it still wasn’t complete. Instead of doing one long article, I thought it would be a better idea to break it up and address each ethnic group separately. I couldn’t have gotten the point across any other way, in my opinion. This information is vitally important for those ethnicities who have no idea how to deal with their skin.”

Razor bumps are a problem that we really don,t talk about. However, for those who have to deal with them on a daily basis, razor bumps can make shaving a nightmare. To compound the problem, many skin care companies have ignored the issue of razor bumps because this problem is limited to only a small number of skin types, most notably, African American men because their beard hair is typically curly and rounded. According to treasuredlocks.com, "60-80% of black men suffer from razor bumps." How can we stop these bumps? By understanding how they form and by shaving properly, the impact of razor bumps can be significantly reduced.
