Have you decided that this is the year to really take care of your skin? Are you on a budget and can not afford to get a facial from a professional? Good skin is very important, it is the largest organ we have so we must take care of it! Well, here are some tips to get your skin ready to glow!
Your skin is recovering from the winter blues! It has a tendency to be dry, dry dry! It is very important to wear a hydrating mask for 30 minutes a week! You do not have to purchase an expensive brand, but the more natural ingredients the better. You can research a few brands to see what works for you in your budget, but make sure the mask says hydrating. If you can not afford a mask, apply pure aloe vera to the face for a half hour. Tip: Steam face before mask so it can help open pores.
Purchase a high grade olive oil and apply a small amount no larger than a size of a quarter, then apply on face after cleansing each night. This will help soften your skin at night.
It is important exfoliate twice a week, if you do not then your cleanser and moisturizer will not be able to work correctly and penetrate your skin. This will cause dead cells to sit on top of the skin and make your face appear very dull. If you can not afford an exfoliator, you can substitute by using oatmeal and honey as a gentle exfoliator.
Lastly, and always drink plenty of water…
We all know we hibernate in the winter, but with spring around the corner you want to start looking your glowing best!
