1. KEEP YOUR SKIN HYDRATED
It is essential to keep our bodies hydrated. Drinking lots of water not only quenches your thirst but also replenishes the body’s cells and promotes healthy blood circulation to keep your skin hydrated and a healthy complexion. Water removes the toxic substances from your internal body to keep the skin cells hydrated and moisturized which will prevent wrinkles, darkness, pimples, blemishes, etc. Drink 6-8 glasses of water per day.
2. GET ENOUGH SLEEP
Deep sleep nights are the best way to keep your face healthy and glowy. When you go to sleep your skin produces new collagen, which prevents sagging. Sleeping, at least 8 hours a day can improve the complexion of your skin by regenerating the damaged cells and repairing them. So try getting enough sleep.
3. EXFOLIATE
Exfoliation can help to prevent clogged pores and fewer breakouts. Collagen is the key to glowing and vibrant skin. Long-term exfoliating can increase collagen production, promote skin elasticity, minimize the appearance of wrinkles, and fine lines, and maintain healthy skin. And maintain a daily skincare routine.
4. DO NOT OVER-EXFOLIATE
over-exfoliation can cause burning, irritation, redness, breakouts, and inflammation. So, it is highly suggested to not over-exfoliate your skin. If you are a new chemical peel user, I highly recommend using it once a week. gradually increase up to twice a week, not more than that.
5. HEALTHY EATING
What you eat, reflects on your skin. Eating healthy not only keeps you active but also nourishes your body from within. A healthy diet can prevent the formation of wrinkles, and fine lines, which can make us look significantly older. Eating good foods can affect the production of collagen and give a younger-looking skin. Foods rich in antioxidants, green vegetables, fruits, vitamin C, A, E, and K can protect the skin from the harmful effects of free radicals, promote faster healing, and improve skin texture. Other foods rich in zinc, and omega-3 fatty acids should be consumed to keep your skin healthy and glowy.
6. AVOID CRASH DIET
A crash diet is a way of losing a lot of weight very quickly by limiting how much one eats. Frequently losing and regaining weight can cause sagging, wrinkles, and stretch marks. If you’re considering trying a weight loss plan, it is always best to eat a healthy and balanced diet. Better consult with a dietitian.
7. AVOID SMOKE
Tobacco smoke contains thousands of toxic chemicals that can damage the cells of your skin and lead to signs of premature ageing. Smoking can cause deeper wrinkles on the face, particularly around the mouth and lips, around the eyes. So, start to avoid smoking.
8. STRESS
It also affects your natural skin health. Uncontrolled stress may result in skin ageing and make your skin look pale. Apart from skin ageing, decreased immune function may make you more prone to microbial infection. So always try not to take any stress as it may take away your skin lustre and lead to dryness and moisture loss.
9. ALWAYS USE SUNSCREEN
Harmful Ultraviolet rays from the sun can cause tanning and damage the skin’s elastic and collagen tissue. Lost elasticity makes the skin look old, sagging, and wrinkled. Exposure to UV rays also increases developing risk of melanoma, a type of deadly skin cancer, including freckles, skin discolouration, pigmentation, and age spots, sunspots. So, it’s necessary to wear broad-spectrum, mineral sunscreen with SPF 50 or higher whenever you are going outside to avoid your skin getting harmed by harmful UV rays. Rather wear sunscreen daily in the morning as the last step of the morning skincare routine. Sunscreen not only protects skin from harmful UV radiation but also slows down the premature skin ageing process. Always reapply every 2 hours. Always read the ingredients before buying sunscreen. Choose the right sunscreen.
10. EXERCISE
Regular exercise makes you active and helps you look younger. Because exercise boosts your blood circulation. So, when you jog, walk, dance, or perform Yoga, your body’s heart rate increases, and simultaneously the blood flow and the nutrients in the blood are delivered to your skin cells. It nourishes your skin from the inside and makes it look well-nourished. Moreover, the blood flow towards the tissues detoxifies your whole system resulting in a better complexion of the skin.
