Top Ten Tips for a Healthy, Glowing Skin
Tip #1: Drink Water
It is often said that the simplest way to clear and supple skin that is no
longer dry is to drink plenty of water. Water has long been considered as the
most effective natural treatment or an almost free treatment for any skin
condition because of its being alkaline, with pH 7.3. It prevents dehydration
which is capable of producing sebum or oil from the sebaceous glands. Your
skin needs water in order for it to function best, thus doctors and
nutritionists recommend that a daily intake of between 6 to 8 glasses of water
per day is highly needed.
Tip #2: Watch Your Diet
Nutrition plays a vital role in skin health too. Specific foods such as
those acidic foods and dairy products are said to be potent in causing an
allergic reaction in some people. Also, one of the widely debated topics in
the area of nutrition today is chocolates. Some say that chocolate does affect
the condition of the skin, while others say it doesn’t. Whatever the result
may be, the best recommendation is just to follow a nutritious diet that has a
number of fresh fruits and green-leafy veggies, as well as fiber.
Tip #3: Consider Exfoliants
Many experts say that exfoliating your skin is another great way to attain
a beautiful skin. So, try to invest in a good body exfoliant or “loofah”, as
it is commonly called, as it is capable of eliminating the dead skin cells
from your body. Accordingly, this should be done once or twice a week so to
free the skin to breathe. What’s more, exfoliants help to prevent ingrown hair
from developing. However, it is necessary to avoid using any body exfoliant on
the skin on the face. The main reason for this precaution is that the facial
tissue is more sensitive and finer than those tissues of the body. Today,
there is a myriad of exfoliating sponges in the market, as well as a number of
really good exfoliant gels that are especially formulated for the skin on the
face. Nevertheless, one of the necessary things to note is that those people
with skin affected by acne should not apply exfoliating gels or sponges, as
these may aggravate the acne infection. Try to consider those exfoliating
products for acne prone skin in the form of a skin peeling treatment instead.
These products are now commonly offered my most salons anywhere in the world.
And, perhaps what is best to consider is to consult a skin specialist before
undertaking any form of skin peel.
Tip #4: Consider a Healthy Routine for Facial Care
When it comes to facial skin care, getting into a healthy beauty routine is
not bad. Most of the doctors today highly recommend that you cleanse,
moisturize and tone your skin twice every day. When cleaning, never fail to
remember cleaning the area on the neck, including your face. Apply a
moisturizer or neck cream after. Before going to bed at night, always remember
to remove all make up. Clean your skin before you sleep, no matter how tired
you may feel. It was found out that during the night, the skin goes through a
process of elimination and cannot breathe properly if it is clogged with make
up. And, you may also find out that sleeping with your make up on will cause
your skin to “break out” with spots on it. When it comes to shaving for men,
some men may experience shaving rashes. For many, these rashes lower their
self-esteem, but this is actually not a big problem to think about. There are
a lot ways to avoid rashes. Perhaps one of the best is to make sure that when
shaving, the razor strokes are following the direction of hair growth. That’s
simply it! Also, scarring on the face can sometimes be unsightly. To heal a
scar, it is recommended that you use jasmine or neroli essential oils diluted
in carrier oil. This is deemed effective for elimination facial scars, and it
even works on stretch marks too as well. However, if you noticed that the scar
or stretch mark has gone silver or white in color, note that it cannot be
removed anymore. And, if it is pinkish or red in color, there is a great
possibility that it can be healed. When it comes to bruises, there are arnica
creams and ointments out there that are useful in healing bruises. It is also
interesting to know that one way of dealing with bruises fast and effectively
is to use Vicks Vaporub on the affected area.
Tip #5: Heal Your Feet
When it comes to skin care, the feet are often neglected. So, if care you
found no time for a professional pedicure, try to fill a football or basin
with warm water and add your favorite essential oil. Soak your feet for about
fifteen minutes. Then, dry them and apply a rough skin remover onto them.
Rinse this off and dry you feet well. And, if you consider pedicure, simply
add some body cream to your feet for an easy and quick fix pedicure.
Tip #6: Tie Your Fringe Out of Your Face
For many people, trying their fringes out of their faces for a few hours
each day is somehow necessary. The support for this claim is the belief that
it will prevent spots from forming on the forehead, especially if you are
prone to oily hair. It is noted that sometimes, these oily deposits on the
hair can be transferred to the skin which eventually causes the skin to
develop acne or any disorder.
Tip #7: Avoid Too Much Exposure to the Sun
One of the most common precautions when it comes to skin care is avoiding
too much exposure to the sun. As you may know, over exposure to sunlight
causes sunburn. So, while current sunblocks only block out the UVB rays and
still let in harmful UVA rays, it is still wise to cover up before venturing
into the hands of Apollo. If possible, use a wide brimmed hat while tending
your garden to keep the sun from your face.
Tip #8: Exercise
Aside from considering a healthy diet, exercising your body also helps keep
your skin healthy. Note that a proper exercise does not only keep the body fit
by regulating the oxygen; it also improves the glow of the skin as well.
Tip #9: Take Enough Rest
One common problem that face people is stress; the one which is not normal.
It was found out that when a person is stressed, the adrenal cortex converts
adrenal androgens to the hormone testosterone in male and female, which in
turn results in overactive sebaceous glands. These adrenal androgens are
released causing a double amount of testosterone, causing the face to be oily,
while other areas of the body are still dry from dehydration. So, taking
proper rest that includes 6 to 8 hours of undisturbed sleep daily is the best
way to rejuvenate the skin.
Tip #10: Other Helpful Tips for Skin Care
There are a lot of home remedies for skin care. One of the most commonly
suggested is blending the egg white and honey well and then apply them on the
face. Experts believe that this makes your skin smooth and helps to reduce
wrinkles. Also, you should try blending turmeric powder with milk and apply on
the face. This specifically removes the tan and assists in reducing the growth
of facial hair. When it is already applied on the face, scrub it off with a
good face scrub and then wash with cold water. Not the extremely cold water.
You can even keep it overnight. Some experts also recommend blending oatmeal
along with curds and tomato juice for facial care. This is often kept for 20
minutes and washed off with cold water. This is also potent for removing the
tan and keeping the skin light. Did you know that cucumber juice is an
excellent astringent for a beautiful, smooth skin? Yes it is. Applying
cucumber juice on the face helps tighten the skin pores. However, it is
necessary to wash it off after 15 minutes for better result. Another great tip
for skin conscious is to apply Vaseline over the entire body after a shower.
Then, shower again after one hour and repeat this twice a month. This also
improves the condition of the skin.
Finally, you can use glycolic acid (mild peel) and trichloracetic acid
(medium peel solutions. As found out, these peels are safe and not overly
aggressive. They do not necessitate time off from work or social activities,
and these peels smoothen, soften and freshen the skin.
Always note that your skin reflects your health. It is your body’s canvas
and one of its valuable assets. So, for good skin care, start developing
healthy habits that generally protect your valued possession, which the skin,
from the outer and inner forces. Your daily habits mean everything as it is
the only skin you’ll ever get |
