Our skin needs time and care for it to regenerate. Without this, improving our skin condition is an absolute impossibility. This is why we need to ensure the below basics to make time for the skin to heal itself.
- Drink a lot of water
- Sleep well
- Exercise
- Follow a good skin care routine. There are many options like exfoliation, scrub, etc.
- Remove your makeup before you sleep every night.
Healthy Diet for Healthy Skin
Our skin is what we eat! Without the right nutrients, our skin cannot undo the damage that it sustains on a daily basis. The right quantities of all the ingredients need to be consumed for the skin to portray health and the fairness to show. Eat fruits with vitamin C for the antioxidants. Balance your diet to get the right amount of proteins and unsaturated fats along with vegetables to get the right portions of nutrients for your skin to naturally care for itself.
Sun Protection and Care
The basic lesson here is not to step out into the sun without protection. The effects of the harsh sun rays and the UV radiation that we are exposed to when you step out of your home are tragic to the skin. That is why you need to use a sunscreen.
Always apply a sunscreen before stepping out. An SPF of at least 30 or more depending on your skin type. UV rays darken and damage your skin. So make sure you reapply every four or five hours.
