It is so important every day to make sure to take care of your skin, especially the skin on sensitive areas like your face. Of course, one way to do that is with our relaxing facials at Suede Salon and Spa, but there is more to it as well. In this article, we want to address various ways that you can make sure that your skin stays bright, healthy, and youthful as possible throughout the rest of the year.
A Refreshing Facial
Of course a facial can help keep your skin healthy, but why? Well, there are a lot of different kinds of facials. Different facials can treat different things from dry skin to acne, oily skin, scars, and more. You can even get them customized at some salons to fit your specific skin needs perfectly. When you get a routine facial you get consistent, breathtaking results.
Use Sunscreen Right
Sunscreen is a must all day, every day, any time of the year. Sunscreen is not just for protecting your skin from harsh sunburns. It is also a preventative for certain cancers and other skin conditions. The sun's rays, while beneficial in some ways like vitamins, can be very harmful from UV rays as well. So soak up vitamin D safely and use sunscreen with a high SPF. When you do look for sunscreen though it is also good to check out the ingredient list and make sure there is nothing in them that you are allergic to if you have sensitive skin.
Exfoliation
Exfoliation is a great way to care for your skin but it is important to remember not to do it every day. Weekly exfoliation of the skin to get rid of oil and skin buildup and product residue is a great way to keep your skin healthy and glowing. If you do it too much however you can end up irritating your skin. So only do it once or twice a week as needed.
Eat Healthy, Nutritious Foods
A healthy diet will affect your whole body, including your skin. Keep yourself hydrated with plenty of water, and if you find that they help your skin you can even try fish oil supplements. Eat a well-balanced diet of fruits and vegetables- though obviously do not be afraid to eat yummy foods too. Enjoying your food is a part of eating. Just make sure to have a healthy balance, listen to your body, and avoid any foods you suspect may be causing skin problems. If you experience any problems with certain foods make sure to speak with your dermatologist or a doctor.
Utilize Serums
Serums are scientifically developed for the benefit of your skin. They can add brightness, even your skin tone, and help with the hydration of your skin as well. They are also specially developed to address certain skin conditions and blemishes that you may find painful or simply annoying. For a youthful glow, you could go with a brightening serum, or find one that fights age and wrinkles for an anti-aging effect.
Cleaning Routine
Having a set time and routine for cleaning your skin is important. Building up that habit makes sure that you will do this every night. To avoid it is to ask for disaster- especially if you are prone to breakouts. Using a gentle cleanser every night, followed by a moisturizer, is the most simplistic skincare routine we can recommend. It will clean your skin and re-add lost moisture which is the most important thing, and you can add on to this routine as you need.
Relax
There is nothing more likely to cause you a breakout than stress. Stress activates your hormones and hormones can cause acne. It is important to take time to rest, let your hair down, and live in the moment for a while every so often. This is not only healthy for your skin, but your mind, heart, and the rest of your body as well.
