It’s no secret we all want glowing skin. Radiant skin suggests health and vibrancy, and it just looks beautiful. Some people are willing to go to extreme lengths to attain a clear and luminous complexion, such as undergoing dermabrasion. Fortunately, most people do not need to take the risk involved with undergoing invasive procedures. Healthy skin takes effort, but there are natural and friendly ways to achieve the beautiful, shimmering skin of your dreams.
If you want your skin to go, try these four tips now:
Chapter Overview
1. Hydrate Your Skin Inside-Out
Your skin needs you to deliver moisture to it in two ways, internally and externally. The internal method is to drink water, which helps your entire body function well and stay healthy. Strive to take in eight to 10 glasses of water each day in a refillable water bottle that you can carry easily so that you can drink on-the-go. Add plenty of ice for an extra chill and some texture in your bottle. If plain water is boring for you, add a squeeze of lemon, lime, orange or cucumber to add a dash of flavor to your drink.
The external method means applying a topical moisturizer since a lack of hydration can cause your skin to appear dull and expose fine lines and wrinkles. Find a high-quality facial moisturizer, and apply it morning and evening to give your skin a hydration boost at the surface.
2. Cleanse Your Skin
Find a gentle cleanser to gently wash your face as a refreshing and invigorating way to remove debris such as dirt, makeup residue, and pollution particles that clog pores and leave your face looking dull and tired. Take the time to cleanse your face morning and night. Place a small amount of your favorite facial cleanser in the palm of your hand and lightly applying it to your face in small circular motions, starting from your hairline and moving inward to make sure you don’t miss a spot.
3. Exfoliate Dead Skin Cells
Exfoliation might seem like tough love for your skin, but with the right products, it only helps your skin thrive. It is a safe process when you use exfoliation products that contain alpha-hydroxy acids, such as glycolic acid. Use an exfoliant like a facial scrub two or three times each week, or commit to a chemical exfoliation like a face peel once each week.
4. Make Vitamin C a Priority
Vitamin C has many positive impacts on the human body, especially when helping skin glow and radiate. There are many benefits of vitamin C for skin specifically, including helping to eliminate discoloration and combat the negative effects of sun exposure. It is a crucial component in boosting your immune system and achieving and maintaining optimal skin brightness. The only problem is that vitamin C production slows as a natural occurrence in the body throughout the aging process. Thankfully, an increasing number of skincare companies add this vital ingredient to skincare products and routines to reduce the visible signs of aging. Add a range of products that include vitamin C, such as your sunscreen and brightening complex.
Start Glowing with Your own Skincare Regimen
Helping your skin look fresh and luminous takes some work, but it is worth the effort to take good care of your skin with inside-out hydration, cleansing, exfoliation and products that include vitamin C. The routine will become a natural part of your effort to look and feel great each day.
