Habits for Healthy Skin
 
 

The skin on the face requires special treatment and a daily skin regime in order for the skin to look and feel it’s finest. There are certain things you can do to keep your skin healthy and supple. The key to having soft, smooth, clear, and glowing skin is constant and regular proactive maintenance of the face.

Good skin care such as avoiding the sun, washing your skin gently and applying moisturizer regularly can help delay the natural aging process and prevent many skin problems. These simple skin-care habits will help you protect your skin to keep it healthy and glowing for years to come.

Balanced Diet
Eat a nutritious, well-balanced diet that includes lots of water for good skin hydration.

Exfoliate
it is important to exfoliate at least 1-2 times per week. This aids with skin renewal and improves your skin's elasticity.

Protect yourself from the Sun
For the most complete sun protection, use all three of these methods:
- Avoid the Sun during High-Intensity Hours.
- Wear Protective Clothing.
- Use Sunscreen.

Don't Smoke
Smoking accelerates aging of your skin and increases wrinkles. Skin changes from smoking can appear in young adults after 10 years of smoking.

Wash your Skin Gently
Cleansing is an essential part of caring for your skin. The key is to treat your skin gently.
- Use Warm Water and Limit Bath Time.
- Avoid Strong Soaps.
- Avoid Irritating Additives.
- Remove Eye Makeup Carefully.
- Pat dry.

Moisturize Regularly
Moisturizers help maintain your skin's natural moisture levels. They work by providing a seal over your skin to keep water from escaping or by slowly releasing water into your skin.

Shave Carefully
Shaving is a common and inexpensive way to remove unwanted hair. But shaving can cause skin irritations, especially if your skin is thin, dry or very sensitive.

For a smooth shave:

  • Press a warm wash cloth on your skin before shaving to soften the hair. Or shave after a warm bath or shower.
  • Don't shave dry skin, which can cause razor burn. Apply shaving cream, lotion or gel before shaving to protect and lubricate your skin.
  • Use a clean, sharp razor. If using an electric razor, don't use the closest setting, which can aggravate the skin.
  • Shave in the direction of hair growth, not against it.
  • Rinse your skin afterward with warm water.
If irritation does occur, apply a lotion that doesn't contain ethyl or isopropyl alcohol. Though alcohol and alcohol-based products may feel cooling, they don't really soothe irritated skin because the alcohol evaporates rapidly from the skin.


Winter Tips for Healthy Skin
Try steaming and facial masks periodically (once every two weeks) to give your skin extra hydration and deeper cleansing. Steaming opens up your pores and helps with releasing any toxins trapped underneath the skin, and also gives your skin the added water and hydration it needs this time of year. Facial masks immediately after steaming help draw out dirt an toxins released from steaming, and will leave your skin feeling healthy and clean. Make sure you moisturize your skin afterwards with a well-hydrating balm or other oil or lotion-based moisturizer.

Maintaining glowing, young looking skin is simple once you make it a regular routine in your life. If you follow these tips for healthy skin, you will likely see improvements over the course of several weeks. Remember that healthy skin is the combination of a well-nourished and hydrated body, along with a good daily facial cleansing and moisturizing routine.
