9 Steps Towards Healthy and Beautiful Skin

9 Steps Towards Healthy and Beautiful Skin

© Noah Buscher

Healthy and beautiful skin is nearly everybody’s dream, as it is quite a powerful tool. Your skin can determine how people treat you and your esteem. Agism is a common problem, and the appearance of your skin can make people start drawing lines and putting you on the elderly scale.

Your skin’s health lies in your hands. That is why we created this article to help you to start your journey toward beautiful skin. Read on to learn how nine steps can change your skin for the better.

 

1. Eat Well

We all love food. And everybody will tell you that they try hard to ensure that they eat well daily. But, how “well” have you been eating? It is not a matter of getting satisfied or eating every time you feel hunger. Eating well entails a balanced diet with the nutrients in the right proportions.

For glowing and healthy skin, you need to eat a generous amount of vegetables and fruits. Vitamin E is necessary for maintaining a moisturized skin, and you can get it from nuts. Iron and Vitamin B12 are also essential for ensuring your skin is healthy and shiny.

 

2. Choose Your Soap Wisely

I know how we like to use artificial scent trying to fight the body odor. While it is not an offense, picking soap based on its smell could become offensive for your skin. Various types of soap have a diverse range of chemicals and alkalinity levels. Choose the wrong soap and you will start your journey to damaging your skin.

For the starters, common soap, free from artificial additives, is ideal for the shower. The skin on your face is thin, and it could be allergic to alkaline soaps. When cleaning the face, use a mild soap and rinse with plenty of cold water. Hot water is not recommendable for your skin.

 

3. Get Outdoors

People have already misinformed you that the sun sends UV radiation that can damage your skin. But they failed to tell you the mega benefits of sunlight. The sunburn, which you can prevent with a mineral sunscreen, might be real. However, it depends on a person’s skin, the climate, your dressing, among other factors.

Doing some outdoor activities is good for your health and an improved skin tone. The sunshine and fresh outdoor air help the skin to manufacture vitamin D. This vitamin is essential for protection against skin inflammation and infections.Besides this, you can also buy Jwoww Tanning Lotions at Discount and give your skin a breeze.

Outdoor activities also involve the engagement of most of your body muscles, improving circulation and respiration, which lead to general health and appearance improvement. When you are not exercising or working outdoors, sit under a shade instead of retreating to your room. You can also add large windows at your office to allow maximum sunlight and air to enter the room.

 

4. Remember to Drink Water

Hydration is mandatory for everyone who wants to stay healthy. The amount of water an individual needs varies depending on the health condition, age, gender, and amount of exercise. During a rigorous activity, I can consume more than 10 liters a day – but remember that I sweat a lot and feel thirsty quickly.

When you do not drink water, your body becomes dehydrated and the skin becomes dull and wrinkled. It also dries out and starts to crack. This is not to mention other hazards like the body drawing water from the brain cells which puts your general health in jeopardy.

 

5. Exercise More Often

One of the best and natural ways to improve your skin is by ensuring that you sweat. I know many people fear to sweat because of how it is associated with body odor. However, exercising helps your body to get fit, healthier, and strong.

When you sweat, your body helps to clean out the pores on your skin and get rid of any “expired” oils under your skin along with excess salts and toxins. The clean up prevents skin inflammation and infections like rashes and acne.

 

6. Quit Drinking and Smoking

Alcohol and cigarettes are among the biggest skin enemies. Drinking and smoking cause wrinkled and saggy skin, especially on your face. Cigarettes contain chemicals that irritate the skin and block your skin cells from getting sufficient nutrients and Oxygen, making them die faster. Your skin then becomes older quickly and loses its glow.

Drinking alcohol is a culprit for dry skin. It deprives your skin of water and nutrients, making it start aging slowly. As you know, dry skin is easy to get infected and damaged by sunburns.

 

7. Exfoliate

exfoliation for healthy and beautiful skin

Our skin frequently generates new skin cells and, as these new cells grow, dead ones get accumulated on the skin’s surface. These dead cells further result in a dull skin.

It is very important to frequently exfoliate your skin which will help in removing these dead cells. And, as a result it will not only give your skin a brighter appearance but also allows your skin products to penetrate more effectively in your skin.

Exfoliation is good but remember not to be harsh on your skin as it can damage your skin.

Always be gentle while doing that, try using a natural scrub like ground oatmeal which will gently exfoliate the skin.

 

8.Natural oils

Many of us won’t like the idea of putting oil or even any oily product anywhere near our faces, especially in the case of those who have oily skin. However, non-comedogenic oils can actually help to clear out skin pores, lessen sebum production and naturally moisturise the skin.

Oils such as coconut oil & almond oil make great natural moisturisers, whereas jojoba oil is a great multi-functional oil which is highly effective for acne-prone and oily complexions, as it can help to normalise sebum production.

Jojoba oil is great for moisturising but it can also be used as a makeup remover and cleanser. You can also replace your regular eye makeup remover with this oil.

 

9. Get Quality Sleep

We work hard to make ends meet and save for our unknown future. But too much work with little rest is an enemy to our health. The body produces more collagen (the protein necessary for the renewal of our skin and other body tissues and muscles) when you are asleep. During nighttime, the skin also cleans up dead cells and replaces them so that your skin remains a youthful glow.

Doctors recommend an average of seven to eight hours of quality sleep. You also need to sleep at regular times to help your brain remember the right time to shut off many functions and focus on building up your body tissues and improving your health and appearance.

 

Summing it Up

While it is essential to do everything to ensure that you maintain healthy and beautiful skin, you need to understand that the basics are natural and easy to implement. Before you rush for a skin surgery or treatment, consider cleaning up your kitchen and rewrite your recipes.

Knowing that the Earth has the right conditions for supporting life at its best explains why we have trees around to purify the air, why the sun shines for 12 hours a day, and the reason water exists in liquid form. Make use of these natural resources to improve your skin health and wellbeing.
