Taking good care of your skin is so important, not just as for your appearance. As the largest organ (In adults, skin accounts for about 16 percent of total body weight and covers a surface area of approximately 22 square feet (2 square meters)) - our skin is essential to our general health, therefore I love to advocate it as part of our healthy lifestyle :). If you take care of it, it can help take care of you, it's as simple as that. And it is absolutely worth the time and energy to take care of your skin on a daily basis (and that does not mean you have to put on all the expensive creams and lotions onto it - just to learn and know what suit you best and keep it to minimum :)).
1. Skin care to me, equals healthy lifestyle
Those who take the time to wash their face in the morning and at night are more likely to be making healthy choices throughout their day. Skin care can be combined with a thorough oral care and hair care routine. Doing all of these things may help motivate you to even eat better and exercise as well. It all adds up to a happier, healthier you. And here is me - tend to inspire you to do all that!! Let's be honest - it is a pretty well-known fact that you will feel better when you look better, right? ;) Having a daily skin care routine helps you to look your best and put your best foot forward when you go out into the world. Whoooohooo.
2. Prevention over dealing with problem
When it comes to skin care, there is no question that prevention is easier than fixing a problem. Doing things like wearing sunscreen, washing your face daily (believe me or not, I only wash my face with natural hard soup and thats it ;)). and using a good moisturiser after shower can prevent invasive treatments down the road. But heyy, neglect can result in many preventable problems.
3. Having beautiful skin as you get older
That only means making smart choices throughout your life and I mean it. Do not over-complicate, just take care of it as natural as possible. Just as doing the right things now can help you down the road, bad skin care choices can have lifelong impacts.
4. Remember that skin sheds daily
Even if your skin is glowing and beautiful today, there is no guarantee that will be the case tomorrow. This is because your skin cells are shedding on a daily basis. The skin that is revealed in the future can be dull and full of imperfections unless you are utilising a proper skin care routine, and hydrate and drink plenty of water!
5. Do not compare your skin to others
Especially to young generation (in their 20s ;)). You may as well know people that splash some water on their face and call it good (in fact I am not far away from that either ;)). This may work well for them, for me (maybe), but for some not. The fact is that everyone is different, and most people are going to need to do more than that to keep their skin looking healthy. You probably have a good idea of what it takes to keep your skin at its best. If you do not know exactly what type of skin you have, it is important to find out. And once you find out, make sure you follow your own path of taking care of it daily.
And remember, skincare come from the inside, which means again - priorities. And by priorities I mean eat and drink healthy, exercise daily (if possible) and in general get rid of bad habits and transform them little by little until you feel confident and happy in your own body. If you are going to take care of it, you will get that in return. Trust me!
Until next time, S.
