skin beauty secrets
Most people like to look good, don’t they? After all, if we know we look good, then we feel good. An attractive appearance boosts your self-confidence and it’s no secret that attractive people are generally more successful in life. In fact, there are many jobs where it is almost necessary to look attractive, such as a pop star, an actor, a TV personality, a sales representative, a receptionist, etc.
We all want to look good, and our most important feature is our face, and healthy skin is an important factor that contributes to an attractive face. To get that healthy glow on your complexion you need to take care of your health in general, but more specifically you should pay attention to the following tips;
o Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated. Drinking up to eight glasses of water a day is recommended to help keep skin supple and allow all necessary repair and renewal processes to continue unhindered.
o Eat a healthy and varied diet to provide your skin with all the nutrients it needs. Particularly important are micronutrients such as vitamin A for collagen production and vitamin C. Collagen is the matrix or substructure that helps support the skin, and there must be enough collagen to do this. As we age, our natural ability to produce collagen declines, allowing skin to sag and sag with the formation of wrinkles. Other factors can also negatively affect collagen formation.
o Keep away from the sun. There is ample evidence that sunlight is one of the main agents of skin aging. It causes the breakdown of collagen and therefore wrinkles, and is also responsible for brown spots, often seen on the back of the hands and face. If you are a woman and your face is especially important, you should always use a little sunscreen, even in winter. Most modern makeup incorporates sunscreen, but you should check yours and, of course, stay out of strong direct sunlight in the summer months. In Australia there has been a huge increase in cases of skin cancer in recent decades, which can be directly attributed to sun exposure as people seek to develop a natural tan. For the sake of your skin, you should settle for a fake tan.
o Do not smoke because the combination of heat around the mouth along with muscle movements cause excessive wrinkles with typically deep fissures that eventually appear in the upper lip area. Heat and smoke also cause discoloration of the skin around the mouth that is difficult to reverse.
o Get enough sleep, otherwise your body doesn’t have enough time to repair itself and this will tend to show up on the skin first. You may experience dry, dull skin and flaking of the skin on your scalp (dandruff).
o Exercise helps blood flow and general health, which is reflected in skin health, so it’s important to get some regular exercise.
The condition of your skin is more important than many realize. While we may not consciously recognize a healthy complexion, it is an important part of our appearance. Certainly, we can’t help but notice an unhealthy complexion when we see it, and whether we admit it or not, a person with a pimpled face is at a social disadvantage.
Taking care of your health and the health of your skin helps you achieve your goals in all walks of life.
