Home Skin Care Tips

Your skin is the largest organ of your body and it is the first thing people notice about you. If you have been careless about the skin care, then it is never too late to start taking care of it and repair some damage.

You do not need to run out and buy every skin care and beauty product on the shelves to keep your skin glowing, radiant and young looking with healthy, natural and basic skin care you can do at home.

These tips are simple and practical.

Basic Skin Care

• Keep your skin clean.
• Avoid lying on your face. Try getting used to sleeping on your back.
• Drink eight glasses of water daily to hydrate your skin.
• Use an alcohol-free toner to clean out pores.
• Do not tug and pull the skin around your eyes. Be Gentle.
• Do not take boiling 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.
• For sensitive skin, it is best to look for products & cosmetics that prevent irritation.
• Regular exercise will increase your circulation and give your skin a healthy glow.
• Never pick a mole. If one looks doubtful or is bothersome, your dermatologist can remove it with a very simple procedure and run a biopsy.
• For bags beneath your eyes, throw a couple of spoons in the freezer for about ten 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.
• After taking a shower, 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.
• Beauty rest is no myth. Your skin will be rejuvenated with a good night's sleep.
