Your skin is something that often gets neglected. But when people look at you, it’s often one of the first thing that people notice. There are things that everyone should do each and every day to keep their skin looking good, so here are some tips for you to follow.
- Clean and cleanse your skin
Cleaning your face daily is essential. This is because it removes dirt, grime and make up, a build up of which can cause problems from blackheads to acne. Soap and water is all you really need. If you can’t find a soap you like, consider going to a soap manufactory (called โรงงานผลิตสบู่ in Thai) to have the right one made for you. Give your face a good clean every night before you start a skincare routine.
- Use a toner
A toner is also a good thing to use on your skin. It refreshes your skin, helps it stay taught and also removes any last traces of dirt.
- Moisturise
Moisturiser isn’t just for people with patches of dry skin. There are a number of benefits to regularly moisturising:
- It can help minimise the appearance of blemishes
- Lines and wrinkles are reduced if your skin is hydrated
- It can prevent further wrinkles from appearing
- Your skin stays plump, which keeps you looking younger
Moisturiser is inexpensive and comes in lots of different varieties, so there is no reason not to moisturise daily. While your face is important, you should also focus on areas like elbows and knees, which can get dry and cracked.
- Drink plenty of water
If you want to do something amazing for your skin, consider giving up tea, coffee and fizzy drinks, and swap them for water. Hydration can help your skin look so much better, and it can help with a number of skin conditions, so make sure you’re getting eight glasses of water a day. Opt for herbal tea if you’re bored of plain water.
Looking after your skin is important. As you get older, there are a number of skin conditions you can develop. While some are a natural part of ageing and due to things like hormones, others can be kept under control with the right diet, plenty of water and a good skincare routine. You can take many simple steps to improve your skin, from drinking enough water to hydrate you inside, to getting into a good routine with cleansing, toning and moisturising. You’ll soon notice the difference good skin can make.
