Basic Skin Care
- Keep it clean.
- Avoid laying on your face. Try getting used to sleeping on your back.
- Drink eight glasses of water every day to hydrate your skin.
- Use an alcohol-free toner to clean out pores.
- Don’t tug and pull the skin around your eyes. Be Gentle.
- Don’t take steaming hot baths or showers because it has an immediate drying affect. Keep it short.
- After bathing, pat dry your skin and apply a body lotion to seal in the moisture.
- Save heavier moisturizers for nighttime. Use light ones under make-up.
- If your skin is sensitive, it’s best to look for products & cosmetics that prevent irritation.
- Use a humidifier in the Winter and dehumidifier in the Summer.
- Exercise will increase your circulation and give your skin a healthy glow.
- Never pick a mole. If one looks suspicious or is bothersome, your dermatologist can remove it with a very simple procedure and run a biopsy.
- For bags underneath your eyes, throw a couple of spoons in the freezer for about 10 minutes. Relax and apply to your eyes to reduce swelling. Read more tips for bags and under-eye circles here.
- Exfoliate your skin once a week including your neck.
- Rinse your face in cool water to close your pores. This will help reduce their size.
- After showering, apply lotion to your elbows, knees and feet.
- A simple home remedy for blemishes is antibacterial soap.
- Lemon juice doubles as a facial mask and pore-reducer.
