REVEALED: Secret to a beautiful skin

Beauty is only skin deep and a beautiful skin is one of the most attractive indicators of beauty. There are some important beauty rituals one has to undergo before achieving a beautiful and flawless skin. We also need to have enough sleep, eat healthy, drink lots of water, avoid smoking and alcohol (if you must drink let it be red wine but not too much).

Tips to flawless skin 

1. Keep skincare simple 

Most people overuse products in their skincare regimens and this is the biggest mistake in skincare. Sometimes people wonder what the problem could be because after making use of all the expensive products they come across, their skin still doesn't look good instead it gets worse. The problem is because they use lots of different ingredients which can easily react and cause irritations. Products needed for a simple skincare are a cleanser, moisturiser and sunscreen. Choose the ones suitable for your skin or better still a dermatologist can help you out. 

2. Don't miss exfoliation 

Use a mild exfoliator because harsh exfoliators may make the skin flaky. Do not over-exfoliate, exfoliation should be done 2-3 times in a week. I prefer using a sugar scrub to exfoliate because it works magic for me.

3. Use Retinoids or Retinols 

A retinoid should be the foundation of any anti-aging beauty regimen. They unplug pores, reduce fine lines, lighten freckles, removes acnes and improves skin texture. 

4. Wear sunscreen 

The sun's UV rays are a major cause of pigmentation. You can get laser treatments to help deal with pigmentation, be proactive with your skin care and wear an SPF (sun protection factor) of at least 15, daily to protect your skin against the sun. 

5. Stop changing products 

Give your products time to work because constant changing of products can be disastrous to the skin. Finish making use of a product first before you decide how well it works, just don't dump it halfway because you feel you cannot see any positive results. 

Note:- If your skin reacts to any product you use, please stop using it immediately. 

You can also swap your products only on seasonal occasion, for instance; if you use an oil-free moisturiser in the summer and swap it for one that is more emollient during the winter it can strip your skin of moisture.
