This is because the stimulation caused by the friction increases cell production, including that of pigment cells. A good way to reduce postural friction is by regularly hydrating your skin with moisturisers or serums that contain hyaluronic acid or ceramides. If you have normal or combination skin, she recommends a facial massage with almond or peach kernel oil for 10 minutes, once every 10 days.
