SKIN CARE 101

They say the highpoint of beauty is at age 16. Well, I don't doubt that, it's absolutely true that the skin is most radiant in the youthful years of a woman's life. Not to say that middle aged women don't look radiant but in order to have fabulous skin even way above your teenage years, it's important to take care of your skin now. This is why we've decided to give you quick and useful tips for a great skin!


TIP #1 on our list is to drink lots of WATER... this is very important, as water rejuvenates and replenishes the body. It's important to have more than 8 glasses of water everyday. Occasional sodas won't harm you, everyone loves a lil' sugar, no doubt, but no drink can ever be substituted for water.


TIP #2 DO NOT sleep with make-up on your face...this can clog the pores of your skin. It is essential to take off your make-up before you sleep at night. Always use your make-up removing wipes first before washing your face.

TIP #3 EXFOLIATE!!!! In order for your skin to breathe and also to remove the excess oil in your skin, use a good exfoliating facial scrub! A good choice is the deep exfoliating scrub from the clean and clear range of products. Other good ones are dermalogica and queen helena facial scrubs.
A few people use more traditional methods like a mixture of sugar and milk (btw, sugar's a scrub!). However, I'd advice that you use products that have been made/tested to suit your skin type.

TIP #4 Use good soaps, body creams and oils that suit your skin type, whether it's oily, dry, sensitive or normal. Some people prefer to use more natural products like the Natural Saturdays body butter, which keeps the skin looking natural, healthy and flawless.
Always stick to a particular soap and body cream that works for you. Find out what works for you!

TIP #5 Visit your dermatologist! Some people have more complex skin problems such as acne that they can't deal with on their own. If that's your situation, don't panic! A good dermatologist can help you find your way to a better skin. With the right skin products and vitamins, it's possible to get rid of the acne or whatever it is and have a fresh and healthy skin, trust me; I've seen it happen before!

With these 5 quick tips it's also important that you REST, try not to stress yourself... We hope you've enjoyed our quick tips to a healthier and more radiant skin!
