TIPS FOR TAKING CARE OF YOUR SKIN.
1)- Avoid overexposure to the sun! Less is more when it comes to sun exposure! Overexposure to the sun's rays can lead to an increase in skin cancer not to mention ugly lines and less elasticity. Look younger! Sunbathe less!
2)- Refrain from smoking Have you ever gotten up close and personal to a heavy smoker? There skin tone is loose and a yellow hue is present. This yellow appearence is due to nicotine depositing on the face. The result is that you appear older. I hope that by appealing to the aesthetic reasons against smoking may actually make you stop.
3)-Wash your skin daily. Believe it or not, some people hold the misconception that since our face doesn't actually touch anything in the same way as our hands do, then it is not necessary to wash it. Fact: Our skin is the largest organ of the body. Our skin 'breathes' not in the same way as our lungs do, but it receives and discharges all sorts of substances including dirt! Therefore, not washing your skin on a daily basis can lead to blackheads, clogged pours, etc. leading to an unhealthy look to your skin! 'Bad' skin says to the world around you that you are unhealthy whether you are or not. So by the simple action of washing your skin daily or twice, you can change how you perceive yourself and how you present yourself to the world!
4)- Moisturize daily. The reasons are the same for those who do not wash their face. Additionally, having a well moisturized face can protect you from what mother nature throws at you. A well moisturized face (oily skin too!) maintains the integrity of the skin. Good skin integrity helps prevent cracking and exposure to bacteria that may infect your face! So, please apply moisturizer daily!Good skin care also includes eating right, relieving stress, and daily exercise. You should also consider avoiding consumption of large quantities of alcohol and junk food. Good skin reflects your lifestyle. A healthy 'glow' means that you are taking care of your skin from the inside out.
