How To Care For Your Skin Effectively

By Almira Louise L. Placido


You do not have to use a facial mask or get facials to have great skin. It is much more about a proper routine of skin care, as well as protecting yourself from damaging sun rays. In this article, we will share some ideas for taking good care of your skin and attaining a glowing complexion.

Never use too much makeup! Foundations, powders and other makeups can clog pores. This can cause acne, or make your current situation worse. It has even been known to cause an infection, sometimes, if it is applied on top of acne. Think about not wearing any makeup, at least until the complexion clears. Do not try to hide blemishes using concealers or toners.

Reduce how much makeup you use. Make-up clogs the pores and can irritate the skin. This can make the acne you suffer with even worse. It has even been known to cause an infection, sometimes, if it is applied on top of acne.

When you're heading outside to enjoy the summer, try applying sunscreen to your face using a sponge applicator instead of your fingers. It will assist you in making sure the sunscreen soaks into your skin. Also, it ensures you don't leave a film behind due to over-application.

Your skin will look better if you drink lots of water. If you do not drink 8 glasses of water each day, your skin cells will start to be deprived of water and starve. Once this takes place, your skin will look dull and lifeless, becoming itchy and dry. To prevent this from happening, and to make your skin resilient, be sure to drink enough water regularly.

In order to help protect your skin against sun damage, you need to make sure you always wear sun protection with a value of 15 SPF or more. Sunscreen can prevent skin damage, sunburn and wrinkles. Wearing sunscreen daily can prevent aging and the development of fine lines and wrinkles, and keep your skin looking young and healthy.

A tissue test can identify your skin type. This test is most accurate in the morning after you first wake up. Place the clean tissue on your face; let is sit for just a few seconds. Remove the tissue and look for the oil on the tissue. If there is no oil, then your skin is normal or dry. If there is oil in certain spots, then you have combination skin. If there is oil over most of the tissue, then chances are, you have oily skin. This knowledge will be useful as you go to select skin care products.

Facial sun damage that causes aging may be treated in a number of ways. These options include chemical peels, laser abrasion, and dermabrasion. These procedures can be used alone or combined with other procedures. Less invasive procedures such as the application of alpha hydroxyl acids and vitamin C creams or lotions can be helpful in improving the appearance of skin that has been damaged by the sun.

If you wear eyeglasses every day, they should be cleaned on a weekly basis. The dirt and grime that's left on your glasses clogs up pores. Clean the bridge of the glasses with a simple soap and water application.

Mix your own sunscreen into the liquid foundation that you wear during the day. Many foundations on the market are manufactured with SPF ingredients already in them. If you do not have that kind then make your own. Add a few drops and make sure to mix it in completely.

Always carefully read sunscreen labels before buying. Sunscreens contain very different ingredients. An effective sunscreen that protects your skin from UV rays should include one or more broad-spectrum ingredient like zinc oxide, avobenzone or titanium dioxide. Read the labels carefully to make sure the sunscreen you select does not contain anything that could harm your skin.

These tips are just a start for better skin health. Skin makes a first impression on strangers. You will feel better about yourself and relate better with others when you are confident about the appearance of your skin. Make use of these tips, and experience a dramatic improvement in your skin.
