Your skin health is influenced by many factors, such as stress, sun damage, and pollution. These stressors slowly chip away at your smooth complexion and it becomes rougher, wrinkles appear, and the skin begins to sag. Smooth, flawless skin is not always easily achieved after puberty hits. Skin discoloration, hormonal acne, or sunspots are just a few unpredictable things that happen to your skin. If you desire smoother skin, here are some tips to improve your skin’s texture.
Diet
Refined carbs, alcohol, and processed foods all play a part in the destruction of good bacteria in your gut, leading to inflammation that can show in your skin. By eating more berries and bright-colored fruits and vegetables, you will help your skin stay free of free radical damage. For smooth, radiant skin, add fish with high omega-3 fatty acids to your diet.
Sleep
Rest is extremely vital to your skin health. Your body repairs and recovers from daily stresses while you sleep. Not getting enough good quality sleep can cause premature aging of your skin. Exhaustion shows by dry, sallow, and sunken in skin. Beauty sleep should be a top priority.
Exfoliate
Although your skin naturally sheds dead skin cells every month or so, sometimes they don’t shed entirely. This results in flaky, dry patches, and clogged pores. Exfoliation is removing dead skin cells from your skin’s surface by using a granular substance, a chemical, or an exfoliation tool. Cleaning and exfoliating two times a day is quick and efficient, and you can say goodbye to dull, dry skin.
SPF
SPF is one of the most important things you can put on your face and skin. Sunblock stops sunburns, and helps prevent redness and uneven skin tones, reduces wrinkles, and keeps the skin supple for a more extended period of time. Remember, slather on the SPF every day!
Vitamin C
Vitamin C infused moisturizers and serums can be found just about everywhere skincare is sold. Be sure and add this powerful antioxidant into your daily skincare routine. These Vitamin C products will reduce scar tissue, age spots, and reduce pigmentation while repairing and protecting the skin from environmental damage. Your skin will stay young, soft, and fresh.
Chemical Peels
If you are looking for an at-home treatment for your skin, try a chemical peel. Although it sounds scary, it is simply a skin-resurfacing strategy where you apply a chemical solution to the skin to remove the top layers. Collagen production is bolstered as the skin is stimulated for regrowth. The texture and pigment of the skin will be evened out.
Oils
Add face oils into your nightly skincare routine to regulate sebum production in the skin. The benefits are balanced, ultra-smooth, and supple skin. Face oils help reduce wrinkles, protect your skin, shrink enlarged pores, and help banish zits.
Hydrate
Water should be your best friend. Water helps flush out toxins, keeps you hydrated, and plump up your cells. Plan to drink at least eight to ten glasses of water per day and to eat at least five servings of vegetables or fruit.
