Modern technology has made our lives simpler. But everything has its own advantages and disadvantages. These computers are not as harmless as they seem to be. All screens emit radiation or electromagnetic fields (EMFs) on many different frequencies. These EMFs can be extremely harmful to your health. If not taken proper precautions it can even cause severe health conditions like cancer. Here are few tips to protect your skin from computer radiation.
* Face PackRadiations can absorb the dust in the air due to the static electricity which causes pores to clog. Give a treat to your skin once a week by applying face mask as it will build a shield layer to your skin. You can use different types of face-packs made from ingredients such as tomato, pineapple, honey and more.
* SunscreenIf there is one product in which investing would never go waste then that should be sunscreen. Apply sunscreen twice a day minimum or every four hours. Sunscreen is not just for outdoors but is equally effective inside closed walls as well.
* Under eye gel
Human eye is extremely sensitive and is the most affected in this case. Narrowing your eyes to look at the screen better can lead to wrinkles around your eyes. Applying gel or cream at the under-eyes and eyelid area will prevent the skin from water loss, under eyes “bruises” and swollen eyelids.
* Take regular breaksSitting in front of the computer for long hours is anyway not good for your overall health. So taking a break every 2 hours can lower the risk of over-exposure to these radiations. Try to turn away from the monitor for sometime in a day, to breathe some fresh air.
* Wash your faceNo matter how much we try it is difficult to keep these hazardous radiations at bay for a long time. Hence washing the face in the evening will help in removing the dust instantly without allowing it to stay on your skin for long.
