But it is not an overnight miracle. The flawless, blemish and acne-free skin that you’ve always desired is no more a dream, but a reality.
Here are some brilliant beauty tips for face to get that glow you’ve always wanted. Ever wondered how to get glowing skin? We’ve rounded up expert skin care tips for keeping blemishes at bay and enhancing your natural beauty. Whether you have time for intensive skincare or not, pamper yourself by acing the basics.
The Golden Rule
Do:
Make sure you always (and we mean always) remove your makeup before heading for your beauty sleep. The skin needs to breathe overnight. And makeup prevents that, as leaving it on overnight clogs the pores which may cause blemishes and/or blackheads. Don’t possess a makeup remover? Just put some olive oil on a cotton pad and gently massage the oil onto your face to get rid of the makeup and dirt.
Don’t:
Forget that exfoliation is indispensable. At least once or twice a week, exfoliate your skin to remove the layers of dead skin, as so to treat it as a double cleanse, sure to leave you with a more healthy glow and brighter skin. You can also apply a paste of walnut in powder form with yogurt to exfoliate your skin, as the antioxidants present in walnuts help remove dirt and promote radiant skin.
Sun and Skin
Do:
Apply sunscreen with SPF of at least 15 that blocks both UVA and UVB rays. Since a lifetime of sun exposure can cause wrinkles, age spots, and other skin problems, you have to protect your skin from the sun. And if you are one who makeup, could get makeup products with Spf inside and do the layering tactic to make prolong the sun protection effect.
Don’t:
Skip the sunscreen, whether its cloudy or cold utside (no excuses). If you’re heading to a beach or around reflective surfaces like snow or ice, lather your skin up with some more sunscreen with SPF of at least 30.
You are What You Eat
Do:
Keep a note of what you put on your plate. Consume more fruits and greens for sufficient protein and vitamins. A diet rich in vitamin C and low in fats and sugar promotes radiance to our skin. Consider a low-sugar diet, which can keep insulin levels down, allowing cells to maintain a healthy balance.
Don’t:
Eat spicy and fermented foods, salt, citrus fruits, fried food. Instead of flavoured blander foods such as rice, oatmeal, and applesauce.
Sweat It Out
Do:
Exercise regularly. Running, jogging and yoga will give your body the necessary blood circulation, and also accelerate the cleansing process of your entire body. You will notice a glow on your face after working out. Racing against time? Just take a brisk walk around the block.
Don’t:
Skip skincare before and after a workout. Apply a toner to help minimize oil production before heading out. Exfoliate after, and then apply shea butter or olive oil to moisturize the skin.
Beauty Sleep
Do:
I know that nowadays teens tend to sleep late. Try to sleep at least 8 hours every night. If you don’t get enough sleep, your skin gets tired just like you – it sags and you get bags. So don’t risk it. You can also apply honey on your face twice or thrice a week to naturally soothe and heal your skin.
Don’t:
Forget to wash and moisturize your face before going to bed. For dry skin, use milder cleansers that are free from alcohol. Apply lots of moisturizers, and avoid hot water as it dries out the skin excessively.
H2O to The Rescue
Do:
Hydrate yourself. Drink lots of water daily, at least 8 glasses if not more. Also, eats fruits and vegetables that have high water content such as watermelon, cucumber, orange, strawberry, grapefruit.
Don’t:
Ignore rose water. It helps prevent and reduce eye puffiness in the morning, maintains pH balance and naturally hydrates your skin if you spritz it on during the day.
Say Bye-Bye To Acne
Do:
Wash your face with warm water, three times a day, and gently massage your face in circular motions, ensuring that the cleanser contains alpha hydroxyl acid or beta hydroxyl acid.
Don’t:
Pop pimples cause it can lead to more swelling, redness, and even scarring. Feel a pimple is on its way? Just clean the area with rose water, and place a chilled green tea bag for 10 minutes. Also, if you wear glasses or sunglasses, make sure you clean them frequently to keep oil from clogging the pores around your eyes and nose.
Go Back to Your Roots
Do:
Use Ayurvedic scrubs to nourish the skin, and help it breathe better. Luckily for you, everything you need is already in your kitchen. 2 tbsp chickpea flour, ½ tsp turmeric powder, a pinch of camphor and sandalwood with some rose water/milk/water is your perfect skincare pack.
Don’t:
Neglect the basics. Just breathing right could rid you of spots and pimples. “Sudarshan Kriya” is a breathing technique which incorporates specific natural rhythms of the breath that harmonize the body, mind, and emotions. This helps in releasing accumulated stresses, and each individual’s experience is different.
Spa Day Everyday
Do:
Have a regular skin care regimen. For dry skin, use a fresh cherry mask. Apply the pulp of fresh cherries on your face before going to bed. Leave for 15 minutes and wash with lukewarm water.
Don’t: Forget to pamper yourself. A gentle facial massage with oils could work wonders. Depending on your skin type, choose oils from mustard, coconut or almond, as they are excellent nourishing agents which help to get glowing skin. Better still – switch on some soothing instrumental music. After 20 minutes, what do you have? Beautiful skin and a relaxed you.
Healthy Habits
Do:
Take out time for yourself, and try to avoid stress as much as possible. Have you ever noticed that when you are stressed, you tend to break out more? This is because stress causes your body to produce cortisol and other hormones, making the skin more oily. Practice stress management techniques like breathing exercise, yoga, and meditation. The more you meditate, the more you radiate.
Don’t: Neglect your jawline and facial muscles. For just 5 minutes a day, perform a few simple facial exercises You can jut out your lower lip in such a way that wrinkles are created on the chin, then lower your chin to your chest. Another exercise that works wonders is to look up towards the ceiling and pout. It stretches out the muscles making the skin more firm.
You’re dressed to perfection, yet you need something to complete the look. Your smile! While we spend so much time and energy on honing our bodies and looks, we forget to express our inner joy and happiness. Keeping a smile on your face will help maintain the tone of your facial muscles and skin.
