THE FACE
The skin on the face requires more care than the skin on any other part of the body, because most of the time it is uncovered.In addition, there are large number of sweat and oil-producing glands concentrated on facial skin.The human face evokes a special interest in oneself and in others. A newborn, despite his visual limitations, already shows a special interest for his mother's face. It is known that there is a specific area of the brain charged with analyzing and recognizing faces. When that part of the brain is altered, familiar faces are not recognized. This disorder is known as prosopagnosia.
Without a doubt, what stands out the most about the human face is its ability to express emotions and mood: Happiness and sadness; serenity and fear; peace and strife; pleasure and pain, and so many other emotions are expressed better through facial muscles than with speech. In addition, these facial expressions are universal, and it has been shown they can be picked up by people from any culture, tongue or age.
Facial expression is truly a universally valid language, a system of non-verbal communication that brings all humans together; and one more piece of evidence of the singular origin of the human species.
However, in addition to emotions, the face is the most obvious expression of the condition of a person's physical and mental health. Many diseases and conditions are reflected in the face.

HYDRATION

Recommended Products
