Beauty is skin deep – everyone has heard of this saying. However, the significance of skin goes far deeper than that. It is a common belief that skin is only the outer visible layer, but skin is actually considered by the doctors as an organ. Skin serves as a shield between you and the legions of bacteria and viruses all around you. It helps in protecting you from cuts, scrapes, cold and the sun.
It is essential to care for your skin, not merely to look and feel good but to stay healthy as well.
Here are a few tips that can help you achieve a glowing, flawless and healthy skin:
You Are What You Eat
You’ve probably heard this one before. This is not merely true for staying physically fit but also for achieving glowing skin. Maintain a balanced diet. Include loads of vegetables and fruits, all the while making sure you consume sufficient vitamins and protein.
Detox Your Way to Healthy Skin
Detox can do wonders for your skin. Skin detox can help cleanse your skin and assist it in getting rid of the impurities from your body. As a result, your skin will feel and look better. According to your skin type, you can find a skin detox that can work best for you. For instance,
• Drinking lemon water to help your skin flush out toxins
• Eliminating alcohol and sugar for a few days to give a break to your skin
• Limit junk food that causes water retention and swelling
• Apply mud masks
Keep It Clean
The best way to get a glowing skin is to keep it clean. It is important to wash your face with cold water and use a cleanser regularly to get rid of all impurities. Investing in a good cleanser is the best way to cleanse your skin. Look for a product that not only cleanses, but also exfoliates and refreshes your skin.
Scrub It Up
A good scrub removes the dead skin from your face leaving it smooth and glowing. Wipe your face with a toner after the scrub to remove any traces of dirt and oil. This will help you get that polished and radiant skin. Opt for a Set which includes a scrub and a toner for all skin types.
Sweat It All Out
Nothing like a good workout to get your skin glowing! Jogging, running, swimming, dancing or doing any physical workout enhances your blood flow which in turn improves your skin. Just make sure you splash your face with cold water after your workout to remove impurities.
Moisturize, Moisturize, Moisturize!
This can’t be stressed enough. You must keep your skin hydrated to keep it healthy and glowing. Moisturizers help in hydrating the skin and keep signs of aging at bay. I recommend an anti-aging Moisturizer as it also fights against radical damage of the skin while keeping it hydrated for up to 10 hours.
You Need That Beauty Sleep
This is the obvious but most neglected way of achieving glowing skin. Proper sleep improves your physical, as well as mental health. It allows your body to initiate its self-healing process. Ensure you have a proper sleeping pattern to get that healthy looking skin you desire.
Remember the Golden Rule
Do you know what the golden rule is? Always, always remove your makeup before you sleep. This enables your skin to breathe overnight and heal itself. Not removing your makeup can lead to clogging of pores, which results in blackheads and/or blemishes. Don’t be lazy and take a few minutes out to clean your face of all makeup.
Just with a bit of effort, flawless and healthy looking skin can be achieved. Investing in good quality products is essential to get that beautiful skin you always dreamed about.
