Five simple habits to getting flawless skin

NEWS24.CO.ID - To getting health skin, there are some simple ways. You don’t have to live at the spa, spend money on expensive products, or change everything about your beauty routine in order to have a glowing, healthy complexion. 

Because as quoted from RealSimple on July 18 2018, dermatologists share the simple secrets to achieving perfect skin. And the ways is very easy, and you can try at home.

1. Protect your skin from sunlight
As we know, sunlight is the cause of at least 80 percent of the signs of aging, such as freckling, skin thinning, wrinkles and some facial lines, and can contribute to the development of skin cancer. So have to looks more younger ?

You can protect your skin daily using sunscreens that block both UVB and UVA light, and re apply every two hours that you’re in the sun. And try to avoid direct sunlight during the hours when UV rays are the strongest (usually between 10 am and 4 pm).

Not only used sunscreens, you must used protective clothing and sunglasses.  

2. Sleep at least 7 hours a day
If you’ve ever woken up with dark circles under your eyes, it's not good for your skin. Because, a lack of sleep can contribute to periorbital hyperpigmentation, a.k.a. “raccoon eyes.” 

3. Moisturize regularly
Maintaining the water content of the skin is crucial for healthy skin. Moisturizers slow down water loss through the superficial layers of the skin and strengthen your skin barrier.

If you have sensitive skin, look for products with “ceramides,” one of the three types of lipids or fats in the skin. 

4. Know how to relax
Chronic tension and physical stress causes surges of cortisol in the body, a hormone that can break down collagen and elastin, ultimately leading to wrinkles. Stress can also worsen certain skin conditions, like psoriasis or rosacea.

5. Lay off the excess sugar
That daily candy habit isn’t just damaging your waistline; it could be aging your face. Foods with a high glycemic index (think about sugary sweets and white carbs) create an increase in cortisol through a process called “glycosylation,” where sugars bind to collagen and weaken it.

6. Have a regular workout routine
If you want a fresh-faced glow all the time, you’ll need to exercise a few hours a week getting sweaty. Aim for a minimum of 30 minutes of activity at least five days a week. 

So, how to create beautiful skin from the inside ?

You must making sure your diet includes healthy fats (like olive oil), omega 3s (found in walnuts and salmon), antioxidants (greens), and vitamin C (berries and citrus fruits).

And also try to fixing up a kale salad and salmon for dinner, with a berry mixture for dessert, because it’s a great recipe for healthy skin.
