Healthy Skin Tips

Mind is All

Many women are very concerned about how healthy their skin is. It is common to use different chemicals to moisturize, shrink pores, and peal. Which can be fine and good, however most women miss the tips that can really help to get their skin healthy. By following these simple tips you can really increase the health of your skin.

First and foremost, drink more water. This may come as a shock but one of the best things you can do for your skin is make sure you are hydrated. Carry a water bottle around with you. There are some arguements on how much water you should be drinking. Some recommend eight glasses a day while others use a formula where you take you weight divided by 2, and that is how many ounces (for example 150 / 2 = 75 ounces). No matter which one you chose, making sure to drink a lot of water is important. If your skin stays hydrated from the inside you skin will look considerably more healthy on the outside.

Wearing a good 30 SPF sunscreen is another good tip for your skin. The healthy tan days are coming to an end, as data shows the damage the sun is causing to skin and the premature aging. Using a sunscreen with spf 15 or higher is a key to dealing with this. This also has the benefit of helping to reduce the chances of melanoma, a deadly disease.

Tip Three involves eating correctly. More and more research is coming out about this all the time. Books such as Feed Your Skin Starve Your Wrinkles are beginning to bring this research more to the main stream. Eating antioxidant rich foods like fruits and veggies along with high oil foods like nuts can help to slow down aging and improve your skins health.

So don’t toss out all of your skin care routine, but keep in mind that you need to start from the base to truly get healthy skin. None of these tips are hard to include into your routine.
