 Q: Dear Dior, I'm Asian like you. How should one take care of Asian skin?
A: Asian women tend of have more melanin in the skin, which protects it from the sun. I'd still recommend using sunscreen of SPF 30 or higher daily. However, the increased melanin also means we're more susceptible to darkened blemish scars. Generally, it takes Asian skin longer to heal from these scars. It is also essential to take note that even if Asian skin is generally thick compared to other races, it is also very sensitive, making it susceptible to environmental damage, hormonal changes, and inflammation. Use products that are gentle, with soothing ingredients and antioxidants, and age-preventative benefits. Using hydroquinone skin-brightening products help even out skin tone and diminish hyperpigmentation, giving skin an overall brightening effect. Some Asian women dislike our innate yellow undertone but the only fix (temporary) would be to apply on a purple correcting primer or makeup base to cancel out skin's yellowness. Studies show that women with yellow skin tones are actually found to be more attractive, so I say let's embrace our yellowness!

 Q: Hi Dior, I like to wash my hair everyday, but I keep on hearing that it's bad for your hair. Is this true?
A: I also like washing my hair everyday. Who can blame us with the humid and hot weather we need to deal with everyday? To answer your question, no, washing your hair daily isn't a bad thing, but there are a few things that you should be aware of. Over-washing your hair can strip your scalp from natural oils, making your hair look less shiny. Also, if you're using shampoo that has a very strong formulation, then your hair has a tendency to dry out if you wash it everyday with that shampoo.The people who benefits more with everyday washing would be those with fine or oily hair as if they don't, their hair has a tendency to look greasy. If you're hair fits this description, then you should look out for shampoos and conditioners that are designed to target fine or oily hair. If this isn't the case and you just like shampooing daily, then it's important that you use a good quality shampoo and conditioner to prevent your hair from drying out, especially if you are blow drying it after every wash.
