Top 10 Skin Care Tips
Healthy skin is really one of the
most important ingredients for beauty-enhancement. This article on skin care
tips is an effort to bring the 10 best skin care tips to you. The list of skin care tips has been restricted
to 10 because anything more that that would not only be difficult to remember,
but also shadow the more important skin care tips. So let’s see what these top
ten skin care tips are:
1. Knowing your skin type is one of the most important skin care tip. This is important because not every skin care product suits everyone. In fact, all the skin care products specify the type of skin they cater too.
2. ‘Drink a lot of water’. This will not keep your skin moist but will help in overall upkeep of your health (and in turn your skin). It might seem a bit awkward to some, however, this is an important skin care tip.
3. Cleanse your skin regularly
(1-2 times everyday). A very effective
skin care tip that helps in getting rid of the dirt and other harsh elements
from your skin. Cleansing is especially important when you have been out of
your house (and hence exposed to pollutants, dust etc). This skin care tip also
advocates the use of Luke warm water for cleansing (hot and cold water, both,
cause damage to your skin)
4. Be gentle, after all it’s your
skin. Don’t scrub/exfoliate too hard or too often. Similarly, don’t apply too
much or too many skin care products. A must-to-follow skin care tip.
5. Keep your skin moist at all
times. This is one of the most important skin care tip. Don’t let your skin get dry. Dryness causes
the outer layer of your skin to break, leading to a rough and unattractive
appearance. Use moisturisers/ emollients. Moisturisers work best when applied
while the skin is still damp.
6. Avoid the use of soap on your
face. Soap should only be used from below the neck. A small but important skin
care tip.
7. Use sunscreen to protect
yourself from sun’s harmful UV radiations. You can use day-time moisturisers
that have sunscreen built into them. Use them even when it’s cloudy. UV
radiations are known to cause skin cancer, so follow this skin care tip without
fail.
8. A bit of exercise and good
sleep are essential too, not just for skin care but for your health as a whole.
Lack of sleep can lead to formation of wrinkles below your eyes and lack of
exercise can cause your skin to slack. Moreover, exercise and sleep also help
in beating stress. So besides being a
skin care tip, this is also a health care tip.
9. Treat skin dilemmas with
care. This skin care tip is about not
ignoring any skin dilemmas. Consult your dermatologist before you go on to use
a skin care product (lest you do end up harming your skin even more).
10. Beat the stress. The harmful
effects of stress are known to everyone, however, sometimes stating the obvious
is essential too (and hence this skin care tip found its place here). Yes,
stress harms skin too. So, take a break or indulge in a warm bubble bath or
just get good sleep.
