How To Maintain Healthy Skin

Let's talk about skin care!

As we get older our skin begins to lose it's 'elasticity'.  That's why it is soooo super important to STAY HYDRATED. I'm not talking about those late afternoon diet cokes either. (you know who you are)... I'm talking about good 'ol fashioned, H2O.

In a world full of fun drinks and so many choices, it's no wonder people have such a hard time drinking water.

Wanna know a seceret: The more water you drink, the more your body needs it, + drinking it will become like second nature! So DRINK UP!

Water is so good for the health of your skin. It keeps it  moisturized, fresh + assists in keeping your PH levels balanced.
 You know what else is super beneficial for your skin? LEMON! It is AMAZING for clearing out blemishes, naturally exfoliating + cleansing you from the inside out.
Not only that, it helps with so many other things as well. (all about lemon's post, is coming soon)




Along with staying hydrated, my diet has a ton to do with how well my skin does.
Stick to those healthy greens my friends, they contain so many amazing anti bodies that are fantastic for your skin's health. Green apples, Kale, spinach, green salads, peppers, etc. Besides, when you eat healthy you not only look good on the outside, but most importantly, you FEEL good on the inside. And of course, staying active will always benefit you! Whether it be nightly stretching or yoga, walking a certain amount during the day, or crazy workouts at the gym. It doesn't matter what you do, just get that blood flowing in your body.

Last but not least, wash your face before bed every night! I know there are days when you just feel so exhasuted you just want to pass out. But leaving dirt + oils from your day, on your skin overnight will cause MAJOR breakouts. Not only will it cause breakouts, but it will cause your pores to stretch, increasing chances of your skin losing its elasticity. (which means you'll look older faster) You also want to make sure you are exfoliating 2-3 times a week. Doing it more than that can actually cause your skin to over produce oils + cause you to break out!

Here are some products I love:

Neutrogena- I've always loved their products. They jive well with my skin. Right now i'm using the "Grapefruit Scrub"

Rodan + Fields- Eye cloths. They aren't only amazing for removing pesky eye makeup, but they assist in reducing puffiness, fine lines + wrinkles, + dark circles. WHAT!?  Like the most amazing eye cloths EVER. Click HERE to find your own.

I hope these tips were helpful for you!

Happy Hump Day, my friends!
