How to Achieve Clear, Fresh, and Younger-Looking Skin Naturally
Do you dream of having clear, fresh, and younger-looking skin without spending a fortune on expensive products or treatments? Well, you can make it happen naturally with some simple and effective tips that you can follow at home. All you need to do is be consistent and patient, and within three weeks you will see a noticeable improvement in your skin. Here’s how to do it:
- Cleanse your skin twice a day: The first and most important step in any skin care routine is to cleanse your skin morning and night with a gentle, natural cleanser that not only removes dirt and impurities, but also treats your skin with an antibacterial ingredient like tea tree oil. This will help prevent and heal blemishes and acne, and keep your skin fresh and healthy.
- Tone your skin after cleansing: The second step is to tone your skin after cleansing with a fine mist that cools and helps close the pores while they are clean. This will also hydrate and balance your skin’s pH, and prepare it for the next step. Let the mist dry on your face naturally.
- Moisturize your skin every day: The third step is to moisturize your skin every day with a very small amount of moisturizer over the entire face and neck. Look for a moisturizer that is suitable for problem skin types and contains antibacterial ingredients like tea tree oil and lavender essential oil. These ingredients are gentle but very effective at clearing the skin from blemishes and acne, and also soothing and calming the skin.
- Get enough restful sleep every night: The fourth step is to get enough restful sleep every night, as this will reflect in the state of your skin. Seven hours is usually adequate. Not enough sleep over a period of time will result in problems that are hard to cure, such as loose skin under the eyes and dark circles.
- Eat a healthy and balanced diet: The fifth step is to eat a healthy and balanced diet, as this is of the utmost importance for clear, fresh skin. Make sure you are getting a good amount of fresh fruits and vegetables, and limit your red meat intake to three or four times a week. Foods that are easily digested will help your system keep your skin nourished and promote fresh, new cell growth. Drink plenty of water too, as this will help flush out toxins and hydrate your skin.
- Exfoliate your skin once a week: The sixth step is to exfoliate your skin once a week with a gentle scrub. When using a body scrub, start at your feet and work towards the heart, as this helps remove toxins. Doing it the opposite way will push the toxins back into your system. Use a very gentle facial scrub on your face and neck, as these areas can be easily damaged. Exfoliating will help remove dead skin cells, unclog pores, and improve your skin’s texture and brightness.
- Try an aspirin face mask: The seventh step is to try an aspirin face mask, as this mask is having amazing results on those people with open pores, pimples, and acne. Crush about 15 aspirin tablets to a powder, mix to a paste with a little water, less than 1 teaspoon, and then apply to a cleansed face. Leave for 20 minutes to work its way into the skin, and then rinse off and apply a light moisturizer. Try this weekly, after a face scrub.
- Use a home steam treatment once a month: The eighth step is to use a home steam treatment once a month to thoroughly draw out impurities from the face. Add boiling water to a basin or bowl and add a few drops of tea tree oil. Place your face over this with a towel covering and gently let the steam open and cleanse the pores. Be careful not to let the steam burn your face. Finish with a tepid face wash.
- Get out into the fresh air and have fun: The ninth step is to get out into the fresh air and have fun, as this will boost your system and your skin will love it. Take a walk, swim in the sea, ride a bike, and enjoy yourself. Exercise will also improve your blood circulation, oxygenate your skin, and release endorphins that make you feel good.
- Take a fish oil supplement every day: The tenth and final step is to take a fish oil supplement every day, as this will help your skin in many ways. Fish oil contains omega-3 fatty acids, which are essential for your skin’s health and appearance. They help reduce inflammation, fight bacteria, unclog pores, and prevent new acne from forming. They also help moisturize your skin, improve its elasticity, and prevent wrinkles and sagging. Cultures that eat a lot of fish have clearer skin, and by now you know that this is great for your skin.
These ten easy tips will help you get that clear, fresh, and younger-looking skin you so desperately want. Remember to make the lifestyle changes you need to, and enjoy the benefits that will come with it. A fresher, clearer, more youthful-looking complexion.
