How to get healthy skin?

Healthy skin is an asset and one that every women tries to attain. However, due to bad habits, work, pollutants and an unhealthy diet, women may struggle to maintain a healthy complexion. Here are some quick tips that can help to make your skin look healthier.

Minimal makeup – Wearing heavy makeup every day can cause your skin to discolor, get clogged or and cause acne. Leave heavy foundation for special events, and opt to go bare with just blush and mascara. Although this may seem daunting at first, after about a week or two, you will find that your skin looks a lot healthier because your skin has a chance to breathe.

Face cleansing – Cleansing your skin after a long workday, a night out or after the gym, is a must to remove makeup, dirt, and oil from your skin.

Sunscreen – Sun rays are harmful and can cause premature aging and skin cancer. Look at minimizing your sun exposure and wear a sunscreen with a moderate SPF rating every day.

Exfoliate your face – Exfoliating your face twice a week will help to remove dead skin cells and unclog pores. Look at investing in an exfoliant that matches your skin type or make a homemade one with sugar, honey, and coconut oil.

Moisturize – The level of moisturizing you will need will depend on your skin type and how hydrated you are on a daily basis. Start by increasing your water intake for two weeks and then consider the texture of skin before investing in a moisturizer.
