Tackle your skincare issues and follow our tips regularly to get beautiful skin naturally.
Excited, happy or stressed, it’s your face that gives you away. Whether you have time for intensive skin care or not, pamper yourself by acing the basics:
Do’s and Don’ts for glowing skin
1. The Golden Rule
Do: Make sure you always remove your makeup before going to bed. If left on overnight, makeup clogs the pores which may cause blemishes and blackheads.
2. Sun and Skin
Do: Apply sunscreen with SPF of at least 30 that blocks both UVA and UVB rays. Since a lifetime of sun exposure can cause wrinkles, age spots and other skin problems, you have to protect your skin from the sun. Make sure your sunscreen is ‘noncomedogenic’ or ‘nonacnegenic’ so that the product does not block pores.
3. You are what you eat
Do: Eat fresh fruit, greens, enough protein and vitamins. A diet rich in vitamin C and low in fat and sugar promotes radiant skin.
Start a low-sugar diet, which can keep insulin levels down, allowing cells to maintain a healthy balance!
Don’t: Eat spicy food, salt, fried food but prefer rice, oats and apples instead.
4. Sweat It Out!
Do: Exercise regularly. Running and jogging will give your body the necessary blood circulation and also accelerate the “cleansing” process of your entire body. You will notice a glow on your face after working out.
Don’t: Skip skincare before and after a workout.
5. Beauty Sleep
Do: Try to sleep at least 8 hours every night. If you don’t, your skin gets tired and you get eye bags.
Don’t: Forget to wash and moisturize your face before going to bed. For dry skin, use milder alcohol free cleansers. Apply moisturizer and avoid hot water as it dries out the skin excessively.
6. H2O = Water
Do: Hydrate yourself. Drink plenty of water daily, at least 8 glasses! Also, eat fruits and vegetables that have high water content such as watermelon, cucumber, orange, strawberry, grapefruit and melon.
7. Goodbye Acne
Do: Wash your face with warm water, two times daily, gently massaging your face in circular motions. Make sure facial cleansers do not contain hydroxyl acid and other ingredients that might burden your sensitive skin.
Don’t: Pop your pimples, because they can lead to swelling, redness and even scarring. If you wear glasses or sunglasses, make sure you clean them frequently to keep from clogging the pores around your eyes and nose.
