Top 10 Skin Care Tips
Healthy skin is really one of the most important
ingredients for beauty-enhancement. This article on
skin care tips is an effort to bring the 10 best skin
care tips to you. The list of skin care tips has been
restricted to 10 because anything more that would
not only be difficult to remember, but also shadow
the more important skin care tips. So let’s see what
these top ten skin care tips are: skin to break, leading to a rough and unattractive
appearance. Use moisturizers/ emollients. Moistur-
izers work best when applied while the skin is still
damp.
* Knowing your skin type is one of the most im-
portant skin care tip. This is important because not
every skin care product suits everyone. In fact, all
the skin care products specify the type of skin they
cater too. * Use sunscreen to protect yourself from sun’s
harmful UV radiations. You can use day-time
moisturizers that have sunscreen built into them.
Use them even when it’s cloudy. UV radiations are
known to cause skin cancer, so follow this skin care
tip without fail.
* ‘Drink a lot of water’. This will not keep your skin
moist but will help in overall upkeep of your health
(and in turn your skin). It might seem a bit awkward
to some, however, this is an important skin care tip.
* Cleanse your skin regularly (1-2 times everyday).
A very effective skin care tip that helps in getting
rid of the dirt and other harsh elements from your
skin. Cleansing is especially important when you
have been out of your house (and hence exposed
to pollutants, dust etc). This skin care tip also advo-
cates the use of Luke warm water for cleansing (hot
and cold water, both, cause damage to your skin)
* Be gentle, after all it’s your skin. Don’t scrub/
ex-foliate too hard or too often. Similarly, don’t ap-
ply too much or too many skin care products. A
must-to-follow skin care tip.
* Keep your skin moist at all times. This is one of
the most important skin care tip. Don’t let your
skin get dry. Dryness causes the outer layer of your
* Avoid the use of soap on your face. Soap should
only be used from below the neck. A small but im-
portant skin care tip.
* A bit of exercise and good sleep are essential too,
not just for skin care but for your health as a whole.
Lack of sleep can lead to formation of wrinkles be-
low your eyes and lack of exercise can cause your
skin to slack. Moreover, exercise and sleep also help
in beating stress. So besides being a skin care tip,
this is also a health care tip.
* Treat skin dilemmas with care. This skin care tip
is about not ignoring any skin dilemmas. Consult
your dermatologist before you go on to use a skin
care product (lest you do end up harming your skin
even more).
* Beat the stress. The harmful effects of stress are
known to everyone, however, sometimes stating the
obvious is essential too (and hence this skin care tip
found its place here). Yes, stress harms skin too. So,
take a break or indulge in a warm bubble bath or
just get good sleep.
