How To Have Gorgeous Healthy Skin

Our skin protects our body.   What can we do to protect it?   Practicing good habits is the to key to proper skin care.     Here are 5 tips Doctors advise that we practice to guard our skin against skin cancer, dryness, wrinkles, discoloration and more.

1. Limit Exposure to the Sun

The Ultraviolet rays from the sun harms our skin in many ways and constant unprotected exposure causes skin damage such as dryness, wrinkles, age spots and skin cancer to name a few.    We need to practice using skin care products and wear protective clothing that will help keep our skin looking fresh and young.

2.  Drinks lots of Water

Water keeps our skin hydrated and moist, which prevents chapped skin, flakes and dryness.   Using a moisturizing cream or lotion for your skin type right after you shower is a good habit to develop.    Even though water is good for the skin, too much of it dries the skin out.    So practice taking warm not hot showers limiting them to about 5 to 10 minutes.

3.   Be Health Conscious

Pay close attention to what touches your skin.    

·      Don’t share personal items such as lip balms and toothbrushes.
·      Don’t touch your face with your fingers and wipe the telephone before use.
·      Don’t share drinks with others.

Practicing these will lower your skin’s exposure to germs.

4.  Choose a Tender Skin Care

Use mild cleansers and wash your face twice daily with warm water.   Massage face in a circular motion, rinse, pat dry and apply moisturizer.

5.  Know Your Skin

Observe your skin and pay attention to any noticeable changes such as rashes, dryness and irritations.    If they persists you need to get medical attention.

Doctors also recommend healthy foods that will help us have healthy glowing young looking skin.
