You dream, like many women, of havingsmooth and clear skin? To become the owner of a perfect complexion, you need to learn how to properly care for your skin. After all, it is proper facial skin care that will always allow you to look flawless. Unfortunately, very often skin care comes down to banal washing, and not always correctly. Well, at best, some cream once a week. However, this is clearly not enough, don't you think? Let's try to figure out what is needed for healthy facial skin. After all, care consists of several very different stages. Moreover, in order for the skin to be truly healthy, you need to follow several simple but very important rules. So:
- Water
You know that water plays a huge role inthe human body? And this is not surprising, because the body is more than 90% water. Water is necessary for all organs without exception. Including the skin - if there is a lack of water in the body, it is simply impossible to fully moisturize the skin with creams alone. Therefore, be sure to monitor your drinking regime - an adult should drink at least one and a half liters of liquid per day. And this is without soups, vegetables and fruits. You can drink any liquids, except carbonated drinks and coffee. They help remove fluid from the body and, accordingly, further dehydrate it.
- Clean your face for the night
Unfortunately, very often women neglectregular skin cleansing, finding thousands of excuses. But such negligence has a very negative effect on facial skin. No matter how tired you are, make it a rule to always wash off your makeup and apply cosmetics before going to bed. Of course, only on well-cleansed skin.
- Hair - a source of dust and dirt
Since dirt and dust quickly settle on the hair,Before applying styling products to them, remove them from your face. Otherwise, dust can get on your face and irritate your skin. Many women notice that the skin on their forehead – if they have bangs – is always a little more problematic than on the rest of their face. Precisely because of the hair. By the way – do not forget that dirty hair is not only a very bad decoration for a woman, but also a very dubious friend for her skin. In hot weather, try to completely remove your hair from your face – this will help to avoid skin contamination and acne.
- Deep facial cleansing
Excessive passion for cosmetic procedures,including facial cleansing and the like, can have a negative impact on the health of your skin. Therefore, do not do it more than twice a month under any circumstances. By the way, this also applies to various chemical peels and other procedures. Everything should be in moderation - excessive zeal can lead to skin injury. And injured skin is very prone to the occurrence of various kinds of inflammatory processes. The most reasonable solution is to consult a cosmetologist. He will objectively assess the condition of the skin and give recommendations that will help maintain perfect skin.
- Moisturizing the skin at night
At night the body rests - this isa well-known fact. But did you know that some processes, on the contrary, are most active at night. It is during sleep that the skin is renewed and restored.
