What are your tips for healthy skin? If I had to list a few of mine…
1. Get Plenty of Sleep, you’ll need to get your rest, 8 to 10 hours each night
2. Don’t Smoke, not only can it wreak deadly havoc on your body, it can ruin your skin! If you don’t smoke, great! If you do, add this to your list of reasons to quit, and get started quitting today, right now!
3. Wear Sunscreen every day, skin cancer kills more young women than any other form of cancer, and it’s so tragic because it’s so preventable!
4. Wash at the end of the day, your skin takes a lot of abuse every day, from pollution to sun damage to having to wear all that make-up. Reward it, and keep it looking fresh and healthy, by following this tip for pretty skin: wash it at the end of the day!
5. Avoid harsh chemicals, did you know some of the skin cleansers you use can actually irritate and age your skin? Yikes! Check the labels and make sure your skin care products (especially washes) don’t contain sodium lauryl sulfate, a popular foaming agent.
6. Eat Well, we are what we eat, and according to my dermatologist, if you eat a lot of junk food, your skin will tell on you.
7. De-stress, stress can take its toll on your skin, leaving it looking dull, tired, and aged. De-stress regularly with yoga, meditation, or just a good run or cry
8. Start early, the earlier in your life you start caring for your skin, the longer it will look its best. Don’t wait until your skin looks and feels aged and tired — start your good skin habits now!
