Avoid touching your face unnecessarily. If you pay close attention, you will notice that you put your hands to your face quite frequently throughout the day. This spreads germs and oils from everything you touch onto your face. Wash your hands and face often to clean off these oils and try your best to stop this bad habit.

 

Sometimes, the best thing to do for your skin is nothing at all. Many people, in an attempt to correct one blemish, go so far that their skin becomes quite stressed, and it shows. If your skin is angry, treat it kindly. Seek out the gentlest soaps you can find - or avoid soap altogether if you can (there are several gentle non-soap cleansers such as Cetaphil on the market). Use an oil-free moisturizer to avoid that tight feeling, and give your skin a break!

 

In this day and age, there is no excuse for not wearing sunscreen every time you leave the house. Skin cancers have become so prevalent that every man, woman, and child should be protected, even if they're only going out for a little while. Fortunately, this choice is made very easy for most women, since most facial moisturizers have SPF 15 sunscreen built in. Others, such as Clinique's City Block, offer an even higher sun protection factor.

 

Always make sure to wash your face of makeup before going to bed. Not only can this get all over your bedding, but it can harm your skin and either cause acne or aggravate your existing breakouts. It basically clogs the skin's pores. Your skin needs the night to breathe and repair itself, so this is counterproductive.

 

Apple cider vinegar can be a natural, and effective, treatment for acne. Use half apple cider vinegar and half water as your toner daily to help your skin maintain the proper pH balance. A proper pH is essential in keeping skin healthy and preventing acne break outs.

 

Learn your skin type. For some it is oily, for others dry, combination and some have extremely sensitive skin. Being armed with this information will give you the knowledge you need to choose skin care products, makeup and even some medications.

 

Exercise for great looking skin. You will get that after workout glow. Exercising increases your blood flow and oxygen levels which also increases the oxygen in your skin. This is vital for skin cell renewal. So pack your bags and hit the gym to turn back the hands of time.

 

As mentioned at the beginning of the article, good skin care has many beneficial effects. Whether you are motivated by the desire to look good or by the desire to avoid skin cancer, limiting the sun exposure is always wise. By taking this article's advice to heart, you will find that your skin will reflect it.
