We’ve all seen that woman who has the perfect porcelain skin and complexion.

Was she just born with good genes, or is there something else that’s contributing to that natural glow? 

 

 

Wear Sunscreen 

Well, yes, some does have to do with genes, let’s admit. But, there are steps you can take to protect and rejuvenate your skin from years of sun exposure and wear and tear. 

First and foremost,  you need to protect your skin from the sun because too much sun exposure can cause wrinkles, age spots, and even skin cancers. So, always wear sunscreen with at least SPF 30, and try to avoid the sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when the rays are strongest. It’s best to also wear hats, sunglasses, and long sleeves to cover your skin. and to protect it from the damaging rays. 

 

 

 

 

Moisturize Your Skin 

Next, you need to keep your skin clean and moisturized. Wash your face twice once a day with a gentle cleanser that suits your skin type, and pat it dry with a soft towel Don’t rub or scrub your skin too hard, as this can irritate it and strip away its natural oils. Then, use a toner to clean pores followed by a moisturizer that fits your skin type, and preferably contains SPF 30 at least. There are plenty of tinted moisturizers with UV protection to give you a nice light coverage while protecting your skin from damaging rays.

Use Eye Cream 

Opting for an eye cream helps with preventing fine lines of the delicate skin around the eyes which causes crow’s feet and other signs of aging.

 

Skin Masks

Enzymatic masks tend to exfoliate, and clay masks remove toxins and clean pores, so important you know which type of mask is best for your skin type. 

 

 

 

I started using a prescription level skin care system called Musely which has been very effective for my skin. 

 

Eat Healthy 

Most importantly, you need to eat a healthy diet and drink plenty of water. Your skin reflects what you eat, so if you eat junk food and sugar, your skin will look dull and break out. But if you eat fruits, vegetables, protein, and healthy fats, your skin will look glowing and vibrant. Water also helps your skin stay hydrated and flush out toxins so, drink at least eight glasses of water a day, and avoid alcohol and caffeine, which can dehydrate your skin. 

 

 

 

 

As always, you also need to make sure to get enough sleep and exercise, and manage your stress levels. Sleep is essential for your skin to repair itself and regenerate new cells. If you don’t get enough sleep, your skin will look tired and saggy. So, aim for at least seven to eight hours of sleep every night, and avoid using your phone or computer before bed, as they can disrupt your sleep quality.

 

Exercise 

Exercise is also good for your skin, as it boosts blood circulation and oxygen delivery, which makes your skin look healthy and radiant. Plus, exercise can reduce stress, which can cause your skin to break out or age faster. So, try to do some physical activity every day, whether it’s walking, jogging, swimming, or dancing.  And finally, find ways to cope with stress, such as meditation, yoga, breathing exercises, or hobbies. Stress can affect your hormones, which have a deleterious effect on your skin So, try to relax and enjoy life, and your skin will thank you.

These are some of the basic steps you can take to take care of your skin and make it glow. Of course, everyone’s skin is different, so you may need to adjust your routine according to your specific needs. You can also consult a dermatologist for professional advice if you have any skin concerns.
