Hey girls! Your skin is possibly the most important thing about your look, because even if you are slim, have great hair
and nice features, if your skin is lacking and covered in pimples and dry patches, your skin will make you look really bad.
Follow these tips to get your skin glowing!
Basic Care
Wash your face in the morning and at night, and after
excercising. Use cleanser, toner, and moisturizer (and eye makeup remover at night) that is made for your skin type. Also,
at nighttime put some sort of zit medicine on any pimples, such as the stuff clean and clear makes. If you have acne, use
something like pro-activ, it really makes a difference, and you will be so much happier once you see it. Drink at least 8
glasses of water a day (or 4 water bottles) to make your skin glowy and smooth from the inside out. Try not to touch your
face or pick at it, because that causes pimples and scarring.
Extra Treats
Once or twice weekly, exfoliate
your face and put on a mask. This makes a huge difference in your skin! I luv the St. Ives stuff for exfoliator, it works
great. Pick a mask that does what you want, for example, fights pimples, reduces oil, hydrates, deep cleans, softens, silkens,
whatever. When I have time I like to mix up my own masks. A super simple one to try is just to mix up an egg and put it on
your face, it makes your face super soft and clean and takes away shine. Leave it on for 5-10 minutes. Don't try this if you're
allergic to eggs though, or you'll get weird splotches all over your face.
Glow!
To give your skin a sheer,
glowy effect, first put on whatever makeup you normally do, the take one of those shimmer powder duster things and lightly
dust on some peachy-pink or bronze powder on your cheekbones, the tip of your nose, your forehead, or wherever the sun would
hit your face naturally. This is especially pretty in the winter as it perks up dull skin. Or, you could mix the shimmer powder
in with tinted moisturizer to make a pretty, light, sheer base, and use this instead of your usual face makeup. I like to
do this in summer, it looks sooo pretty!
Well those are the tips I follow to get perfect looking, clear, soft, all
around gorgeous skin!
