I am a 30-year-old female. Recently, I have noticed that my facial skin condition is not good—it feels somewhat dry and dull, and I've developed some fine lines. I have tried several skincare products, but the results have been less than satisfactory. How can I improve the condition of my facial skin?

Improving facial skin requires comprehensive care and a healthy lifestyle. The condition of facial skin is influenced by multiple factors, including genetics, environment, diet, lifestyle habits, and skincare methods. To improve facial skin, it is essential to address both internal and external factors, providing adequate nutrition and hydration while minimizing irritation and damage. The skin has a strong capacity for self-repair, and skin issues can be gradually improved through scientific care and a healthy lifestyle.

It is recommended to maintain good sleep habits and ensure sufficient rest, avoiding late nights, as staying up late can burden the skin and lead to dullness. Regarding diet, consume more foods rich in vitamins C and E, such as fresh fruits, vegetables, and nuts, which help combat oxidation and promote skin metabolism. At the same time, reduce the intake of oily, spicy, and high-sugar foods, as these may worsen skin problems. Maintain moderate exercise to improve blood circulation and enhance the skin's blood supply. Additionally, pay attention to sun protection and avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight, as ultraviolet rays are a major cause of skin aging and pigmentation. Choose skincare products suitable for your skin type and avoid using products containing irritating ingredients. If facial skin problems persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional promptly.
