5 Tips For Better Skin

I'm skin care obsessed and always looking for the best products for my skin. Lately I've been receiving emails asking for skin care recommendations and tips. What I've come to realize is that there's only so much these lotions and potions can do, your lifestyle is just as important for better skin.



1. Eat Well
It sounds cliche but you are what you eat. I love eating fried and spicy foods, both of which makes my skin pay for it afterwards. Eating more veggies, fruits, and drinking more water helps.


2. Sleep Well
Try sleeping 8-9 continuously every night, it helps drastically. I used to sleep 5-6 hours a night and would get cystic acne all the time.


3. Be Diligent With Skin Care
Set aside some time to massage in your skin care products. I used to be lazy, smearing toners and cream on my face and running out the house. You pay good money for these skin care items, make good use of it.


4. Skin Awareness
Understanding your own skin and how it reacts to products. I have sensitive combination skin with a oily T-zone. I usually do my research before buying a product, just because its expensive doesn't mean its good or good for your skin type.



5. Less Makeup
I love color cosmetics but many are packed with chemicals and may irritate you skin. Let your skin rest when its experiencing an outbreak, don't try to cover it up with more makeup. Make sure to thoroughly clean your skin every night and don't go to bed with makeup on.


Skin improvements are gradual and it'll take some time to see noticeable changes, don't give up if you don't see immediate changes. Should your skin flare up stop what you're using immediately. I hope this was helpful
