4 IDEAL DAILY SKINCARE TIPS FOR FLAWLESS SKIN

Your skin is the largest organ in (well, on) your body, so it makes sense to take as much care of it as you can. If you don’t look after your skin, it won’t just be uncomfortable and perhaps even painful for you, it can also have a huge effect on your appearance. Skin that is neglected can appear dry, flaky and patchy, along with being more prone to fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging. What’s more, a bad skincare routine can also increase the risk of an outbreak acne. So, what can you do during your day to day routine to help your skin stay in perfect condition? We’ve listed some of our IDEAL tips.

Eat a Healthy Diet

Many people believe that to get great skin, it’s important to put a lot of focus into the products that they are using on it. But, whilst using the right creams and lotions on your skin is important when it comes to improving its condition, it’s also vital that you consider what you are putting into your body, since this will have an even larger effect, from the inside out. For example, drinking plenty of water is crucial for keeping your skin hydrated, which will have a direct effect on its elasticity and help you to avoid skin dryness and wrinkles. You should also aim to eat a diet that is rich in foods with high amounts of vitamins and antioxidants, such as fresh fruit and vegetables.

Use a Good Anti-Wrinkle Cream

For many people, anti-wrinkle or anti-aging cream isn’t something they consider until they realise that wrinkles have begun to appear on their skin. However, whilst good products such as Environ from The Skin Gym can help to reverse the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles when used correctly, it’s best to remember that starting as early as possible to stop wrinkles, rather than waiting until you need to get rid of them, is the best choice when it comes to keeping your skin in the best condition. After all, prevention is always better than cure.

Sleep Well

If you’ve been looking for an excuse to sleep more, then looking after your skin is the perfect reason. Since your skin replenishes and repairs itself overnight whilst you are in a deep slumber, the more sleep you get at night, the better you will look and feel. Aim to get at least seven hours of sleep per night, and take an hour before bed to wind down, put the phone away, and do something relaxing.

Supplement Your Diet with Omega 3

Fish is obviously a good source of omega 3, however eating it all the time might get a bit boring. Therefore you might want to look into supplementing your diet with omega 3.  Omega 3 is known for being an anti-inflammatory and can help with everything from psoriasis to acne.  It does this by healing damaged skin, preventing the hyperkeratinisation of sebum follicles, and decreasing insulin-like growth factors.  While you can get omega 3 from a balanced diet, most people in the western world do not eat as much omega 3 as they should, hence why supplementing is a good idea.
