Tips for Healthy Skin

Good skin care doesn’t have to involve a complex routine. Basic steps go a long way to
giving your skin the pampering it deserves, according to the Mayo Clinic.
 Protect it — The sun is one of the leading causes of skin damage and aging. To
protect your skin, apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher,
wear protective clothing such as long sleeves and a hat, and seek shade when the
sun is strongest — between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.
 Hydrate it — Keeping your skin hydrated is essential for a healthy complexion.
Drink plenty of water throughout the day and use a moisturizer appropriate for
your skin type.
 Be gentle — Cleansing, toning, and moisturizing, are the building blocks of a good
skincare routine. Avoid using harsh products when cleansing. They can strip your
skin of its natural oils. Use a toner to help balance your skin’s pH and a
moisturizer to hydrate.
 Sleep — Sleep is important for overall health, including the health of your skin.
During sleep, your body repairs itself, including your skin. Aim for seven to nine
hours of sleep each night to help your skin look its best.
 Eat right — What you eat has a direct impact on your skin. Include a variety of
fruits and vegetables in your diet, as well as lean proteins, healthy fats, and
whole grains. Avoid processed foods and excessive sugar, which can cause
inflammation and breakouts.
 Don’t smoke or drink too much — Smoking and excessive alcohol consumption
can have negative effects on the health of your skin. Smoking can cause
premature aging, including fine lines, wrinkles, and a dull complexion, while
excessive alcohol consumption can dehydrate the skin and lead to redness and
puffiness.
 Relax — Remember that your skin is an organ and stress can trigger negative
responses. In the case of skin, that includes breakouts and other problems.
Maintain a healthy state of mind, set reasonable limits, and do things for
yourself.
