FASHION CRIB: STEPS TO ACHIEVING A FLAWLESS SKIN

The skin is a vital organ that covers and protects the skin from heat, injury and infection. It is very important to care for it. A beautiful skin speaks volumes and will always be attractive. Here are some tips on how to attain a great skin

1. Know your skin type: it is very essential to know if one’s skin is oily, dry or normal before using any skin care product. A dry skin will require oily products, while an oily skin will require less oily products.

2.  Remove your make-up before going to bed.: Never leave your make-up on till the next day. The skin needs to breathe overnight and make-up prevents this. It cl ogs the skin pores which may lead to skin problems like blemishes and blackheads. Make-up is best removed with make-up wipes.

3. Follow the CTM(Cleanser-Toner-Moisturizer) routine: A toner and a moisturizer should be applied after using cleanser for maximum benefit. Also, the skin should be exfoliated 2-3 times in a week. Exfoliation softens and brightens the skin.

4. Always apply sunscreen: It is important to keep the skin away from the sun. Exposure to the sun for a long time can cause wrinkles, spots, blemishes and other skin problems. Always ensure to apply sunscreen with SPF 15 that blocks UVA and UVB rays. Sunscreen blocks the harmful rays from causing damage to the skin.

5. Healthy habits: Practising healthy habits is important for the skin. One of these healthy habits is drinking water. Hydration should never be underestimated. Exercising regularly also helps a lot. It is advisable to eat healthy foods, fruits and vegetables. It is also important to get enough rest and sleep.

6. Stick to your skin care routine: A smooth and blemish-free skin cannot be achieved overnight. It is a gradual process that may take time. Patience and consistency is the key to get the desired result. _Foyin Ejilola
