There are thousands of skin care professionals, dermatologists and even bloggers giving out some great healthy skin tips. While I would love to give you a long list of these tips, there are really only a few steps that will truly transform your skin and bring it back to health.
How to get healthy skin
First and foremost, you must take care of yourself from inside with a healthy diet, eating food for healthy skin, taking vitamins for health, and making time to exercise. There is no doubt that these 3 changes can have a drastic impact on your appearance. Unfortunately most people are looking for a quick and easy fix by continually buying the next big advertised skin care product said to work miracles.
If you are not maintaining your health on the inside, you will not look healthy on the outside. Is your diet filled with sugar, processed and fast foods? If so, your skin will show it. Do you drink or smoke excessively? It may not show in your 20's but let me tell you the last time I woke up to a hangover, I looked in the mirror and almost fell over! You can only begin to have healthy skin once you work on your diet. And only those of us who have, can truly believe this. I challenge all of you to make an effort to eliminate junk food, sugar and fast food from your diet for 2 weeks and I promise you will see significant changes in your skin tone and fine lines.
Secondly, it is important to examine what ingredients you are using on your skin. Using nontoxic chemical free cosmetics and natural skin products is really in my opinion the only way to rid your skin of dullness, inflammation and irritation. It seems do difficult for woman to believe that they can be beautiful without harsh skin regimens or drugs.
The scientific evidence that validates the use of alternative beauty and health products only continues to grow. Society's interest in natural products will only continue to grow also as more and more people realize that unnatural products are causing them to develop even more unnatural syndromes making skin and health worse.
We use harsh products that strip away "bad" oil and peel away "bad" surface skin because we believe scientists are smarter than our bodies. We use blemish creams that kill all of the bad bacteria at the same time drying the skin to the point of lifelessness. Marketers have us convinced that our skin doesn't come with its own antibacterial, antiwrinkle protection. Eliminating the use of harsh chemicals can only help your skin begin to repair itself and bring it back to life.
While many women may never be affected negatively by chemicals in their skin care products, their skin will never become as healthy as it should be. I personally never had skin problems and thought I looked pretty good for my age until I accidentally fell upon a natural product that took it to a whole new place.
As far as expense goes, natural skin products will cost you less in the long run. Much less expensive than all of the junk cosmetics and skin care products building up in your closet that never did as promised, much less expensive than procedures to "fix" your skin problems only making them worse, and far less expensive than all of the clothing, hair appointments and other cover-ups used to maintain the illusion of beauty.
Take charge of your skin health and stop relying on television and magazine ads to deliver honest information. (They don't). Take time to learn and research all of the new innovative natural skin products coming to market today and learn which chemical ingredients should be avoided. The more you know, the better you will look and feel. And one more thing....get some darn sleep.
