TOP 10 MOST USEFUL TIPS TO PROTECT YOUR SKIN

Here is the simple steps to protect your skin.

TIPS.1 EXERCISE

Aside from considering a healthy diet, exercising your body also helps keep your skin
healthy. Note that a proper exercise does not only keep the body fit by regulating the
oxygen; it also improves the glow of the skin as well

TIPS.2 TAKING REST

One common problem that face people is stress; the one which is not normal. It was
found out that when a person is stressed, the adrenal cortex converts adrenal androgens to
the hormone testosterone in male and female, which in turn results in overactive
sebaceous glands. These adrenal androgens are released causing a double amount of
testosterone, causing the face to be oily, while other areas of the body are still dry from
dehydration. So, taking proper rest that includes 6 to 8 hours of undisturbed sleep daily is
the best way to rejuvenate the skin.

TIPS.3 Avoid Too Much Exposure to the Sun

One of the most common precautions when it comes to skin care is avoiding too much
exposure to the sun. As you may know, over exposure to sunlight causes sunburn. So,
while current sunblocks only block out the UVB rays and still let in harmful UVA rays, it
is still wise to cover up before venturing into the hands of Apollo. If possible, use a wide
brimmed hat while tending your garden to keep the sun from your face.

TIPS.4 Drink Water
It is often said that the simplest way to clear and supple skin that is no longer dry is to
drink plenty of water. Water has long been considered as the most effective natural
treatment or an almost free treatment for any skin condition because of its being alkaline,
with pH 7.3.Your skin needs water in order for it to function best, thus doctors and
nutritionists recommend that a daily intake of between 6 to 8 glasses of water per day is
highly needed.

TIPS.5 Watch Your Diet

Nutrition plays a vital role in skin health too. Specific foods such as those acidic foods
and dairy products are said to be potent in causing an allergic reaction in some people.
Also, one of the widely debated topics in the area of nutrition today is chocolates. Some
say that chocolate does affect the condition of the skin, while others say it doesn’t.
Whatever the result may be, the best recommendation is just to follow a nutritious diet
that has a number of fresh fruits and green-leafy veggies, as well as fiber.

TIPS.6Facial Care

When it comes to facial skin care, getting into a healthy beauty routine is not bad. Most
of the doctors today highly recommend that you cleanse, moisturize and tone your skin
twice every day. When cleaning, never fail to remember cleaning the area on the neck,
including your face. Apply a moisturizer or neck cream after.

TIPS.7 Exfoliants

Accordingly, this should be done once or twice a week so to free the skin to breathe. What’s more, exfoliants help to prevent ingrown hair from developing.However, it is necessary to avoid using any body exfoliant on the skin on the face. The main reason for this precaution is that the facial tissue is more sensitive and finer than
those tissues of the body.

TIPS.8 Experts Advice

There are a lot of home remedies for skin care. One of the most commonly suggested is
blending the egg white and honey well and then apply them on the face. Experts believe
that this makes your skin smooth and helps to reduce wrinkles.
Also, you should try blending turmeric powder with milk and apply on the face. This
specifically removes the tan and assists in reducing the growth of facial hair. When it is
already applied on the face, scrub it off with a good face scrub and then wash with cold
water. Not the extremely cold water. You can even keep it overnight.

TIPS.9 Heal Your Feet

When it comes to skin care, the feet are often neglected. So, if care you found no time
for a professional pedicure, try to fill a football or basin with warm water and add your
favorite essential oil. Soak your feet for about fifteen minutes. Then, dry them and
apply a rough skin remover onto them. Rinse this off and dry you feet well. And, if you
consider pedicure, simply add some body cream to your feet for an easy and quick fix
pedicure.

TIPS.10 Tie Your Fringe Out of Your Face
For many people, trying their fringes out of their faces for a few hours each day is
somehow necessary. The support for this claim is the belief that it will prevent spots
from forming on the forehead, especially if you are prone to oily hair. It is noted that
sometimes, these oily deposits on the hair can be transferred to the skin which eventually
causes the skin to develop acne or any disorder.TRY IT.
