Get Glowing Healthy Skin in Five Steps

Get Glowing Healthy Skin in Five Steps
1. Don’t leave home without sunscreen. Research shows that the best sunscreen is one with a broad-spectrum of sun
protection factor (SPF) of 15 or higher. Meaning it will help shield you from the sun's dangerous UVB (causes the burning
of the skin) / UVA (causes 90% of aging of the skin and a risk of skin cancer) rays. Sunscreen works in one of two ways…
by scattering the light and reflecting it away from your skin or by absorbing the UV rays prior to them reaching your skin.
However, SPF rating only refers to the blockage of the UVB ray. Sunscreen doesn’t have a rating factor for blocking UVA
rays. You will need to look for at least one the following the ingredients for UVA protection: ecamsule, avobenzone,
oxybenzone, titanium dioxide, sulisobenzone, or zinc oxide. Any of those should work beautifully.
While choosing the best sunscreen is important, perhaps even more crucial is using it correctly -- something a lot of us
don't do. For the best protection apply 1 to 2 ounces (the size of shot glass) of sunscreen on your body 20 minutes
before going outdoors [so your skin can absorb it completely] and every two hours to any exposed skin after that.
2. Fight the signs of aging with retinol.
It is possible to have lovely radiant skin without
the help of surgery or fillers. The secret is retinol,
a topical form of vitamin A that effectively
eliminating the appearance of wrinkles and fine
lines by removing old cells in a course of 35-57
days. By promoting cell turnover it aids in
producing new, plump and healthy cells.
3. Don’t underestimate diet, exercise and sleep.
Eating a healthy diet that consist of antioxidants,
(vitamins & minerals) can lead to healthy skin
according to HealthCentral.com. It is well known
that water is essential to proper cell health.
Water keeps your skin hydrated and helps
remove toxins. While on the subject of toxins,
working out and getting plenty of physical
activity not only benefits the body, but also the
skin. Exercise increases blood flow and gives a
rosy glow to the skin. A good sweat session will
also help release toxins from the body. Help
your body regenerate, be sure to schedule 7 to 8
hours of sleep per night and you will wake up
looking radiant.
4. Don’t fall for fads and the latest skin trends. There are
a lot of trendy products out there that are not clinically
proven to be effective and can easily cause
disappointment not to mention waste your hard-earned
dollars. Research products and their ingredient to
determine if the product is just receiving marketing hype
or if it is something you would want to put in your
arsenal of weapons against aging skin.
5. Find a Dermatologist. If you are looking for expert help for
a specific skincare need or have a skin issue that isn’t
responding to over-the-counter lotions, seek out a
dermatologist. Like all physician, dermatologist specialize in
specific skincare – find one that specializes in your skincare
need(s) and verify their credentials.
