It doesn't need to be expensive or time consuming to restore fresh and youthful looking skin. There are many ways to rejuvenate your skin, even if you are on a budget or have a busy schedule. Here are some helpful methods to revitalize your skin:
These gently remove dead skin cells from the face, leaving it smooth and radiant. They allow moisturizers to soak deeper into the skin. Exfoliating creams are available for hands, heels, and feet at most stores and pharmacies.
Face masks can be homemade or bought in stores. Face masks work by hydrating the skin, reducing the size of pores, softening the skin, and drawing out excess oils from the skin. To create a face mask at home, you can use honey, oatmeal, or eggs. Mud masks and clay masks are two options.
Moisturizers are essential in turning dry skin into soft, supple skin. Antioxidants, like retinol or Vitamin C, help repair damaged skin cells and can even slow down the aging process. Hyaluronic acid helps moisturize and smooth out the skin. Alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) like citric acid and lactic acid can also exfoliate skin.
Sunscreen isn’t just for when you’re going swimming. Apply it each day to protect from sun damage. Some moisturizers even add SPF into their formula.
Just like the rest of your body, skin needs vitamins to stay healthy. Vitamin A repairs damaged skin tissue. Vitamin C minimizes wrinkles. Vitamin E improves dry skin and reduces wrinkles and fine lines. Vitamin K may help reduce bruises and dark circles.
Choose foods that are rich in vitamins and antioxidants. Also, drinking enough water everyday will prevent dry skin and keep it soft as well.
