Does your heart die
a little every time you see that airbrushed model puckering her pink, glossy
lips, and her skin looking as if it’s been specially manufactured at a shop
that boasts of super-awesome skin? Join thousands of women if it does. Just to
let you know, getting flawless skin isn’t as impossible as the little pessimist
in your head is telling you. We share with you 10 tips that will help transform
your skin into the breath taking vision you have in mind.
1. Eat
Healthy:
You’ve heard it a
million times before, so there must be some truth to it, don’t you think? The
lesser fried and processed foods you eat, the lesser your skin has to work to
keep it oil-free and healthy. It’s up to you now.
2. Cleanse
Well:
At the risk of
sounding like an overrun fairness cream commercial, dirt, grime and pollution
can indeed leave your skin looking dull and lifeless. Your skin needs a
rigorous cleansing regime with the right products to ensure that it remains
clean and supple.
3. Exfoliate
Like A Boss:
Apart from daily
cleansing, your skin needs to rid itself of all the constantly-accumulating
dead skin, dirt and grime that simple cleansing cannot get rid of. Hence,
exfoliating with a good scrub (we suggest walnut or apricot) at least once
every two days is absolutely necessary.
4. Pamper Your
Skin:
The best way to
show your skin that you love it is to pamper it as much as you can. Apart from
following a regular skincare regime, regular clean-ups, massages and such
treatments will help increase blood circulation and refresh your skin.
5. Drink To
Your Heart’s Content:
Fluids are the
elixir of our body systems. Whether it’s just water or juices from a bunch of
fresh fruits, drink as much as you can and as much as you want to. Hydration is
the key for well-nourished, soft and glowing skin.
6. Hide from
the Sun:
There’s no real
point of helping your skin so much from the inside if you’re not going to
proactively also help it from the outside. Cover yourself when you’re out in
the afternoon sun. If you need to soak up the sun, do it early in the morning
when the harmful UV rays aren’t yet out.
7. Clean Your
Hair:
Sometimes, bumps,
acne and other skin problems can be caused due to dandruff from the hair coming
into contact with the skin. So, wash your hair with a medicated anti-dandruff
shampoo to take that extra step towards healthy skin.
8. Go Natural:
This is another
piece of advice that you’ve probably heard so many times, that you doubt its
authenticity. Well, don’t. Natural skincare products are definitely safer than
chemical ones for the simple reason that the chances of side effects with them
is drastically low compared to synthetic ones.
9. Use
Skincare Products Judiciously:
Just because you’re
using natural products does not mean you go overboard. Give your skin a
breather once in a while. Ditch that all-natural mineral makeup and go natural.
Your skin will thank you; that’s a guarantee.
10. Don’t
Stress So Much:
You can do all of
the above and still be fretting over why your skin isn’t as flawless as all
those ads and this post said it would be. Do you know why? It’s because you’re
stressing over the fact that it isn’t. Stress causes excess oil secretion,
which in turn, causes your skin to absorb more dirt that in turn leads to skin
problems. You do the math now.
Remember, the most
beautiful part of you is not what you look like, but what you are within. Inner
radiance is what reflects on the outside, so as long as you’re happy on the
inside, nothing can stop your skin from flaunting it.
