How to get beautiful skin on this Valentine's Day

 

Oprah Winfrey had this to say about beauty and just being you: “The next time you look into the mirror, try to let go of the story line that says you’re too fat or too sallow, too ashy or too old, your eyes are too small or your nose too big; just look into the mirror and see your face.

That is exactly what you should do when your goal is to make an honest to goodness evaluation of your skin. You shouldn’t make up a flaw when it really isn’t there in the first place but, you also must not deny that an imperfection exists when indeed it is there staring back at you.

It’s striking a balance of sorts.

Beautiful skin can be elusive, and it seems that achieving it is so much farther the more you try to pursue it. So, how exactly can you enjoy the skin you’ve always dreamed of owning? Good question! Here are your top answers:

Embrace your skin.

You can’t hate your skin and demand for it to love you back. It plays a fair game, you know? If it’s healthy, glowing skin that you’re after, then start by building a healthy relationship with your skin. Work with it and not against it because you’re the one who can make adjustments, and guess what, it can’t.

Treat your skin as a component of a bigger system. 

Your skin is part of your body. It is a team player. It behaves and reacts in accordance with the rest of your body. Therefore, if you want to derive only the ideal benefits of a youthful radiance and smoothness from your skin, you are required to treat your body well.

Respect your body by leading a healthy lifestyle, nothing less. Health requires healthy sources of fuel so feed your body that. Engage in physical activities that should keep your blood and much-needed nutrients cycling around your body without blockages or hindrances of any sort. Uphold your personal health by skipping vices that suffer your body.

Think beautiful and be confident.

Everything we are all starts in the mind. If you think you’re beautiful, you become beautiful, and not if you think otherwise. Self-esteem is having a high regard for oneself. If you think highly of yourself, you will invite the same high level of respect from people around you. You have to believe that your body reacts to your thoughts too. Confidence is what gives you a natural glow and an attractive “X-factor”.

Practice proper skin care and hygiene.

No shortcuts because there are no bypass roads leading the way to a healthy skin, and you know that that is the foundation of beautiful skin. Cleanse, tone and moisturize —three steps you must perform every day and every night. The rule of thumb is to minimize inflammation because that leads to damage and multiple signs of skin ageing. You can achieve that by eliminating the harsh ingredients from your skin care products but also by using the right kinds of topical treatments and by ingesting the right kinds of nutrients like antioxidants, vitamins and healthy fats.

Observe healthy sun time.

You need a daily dose of sunlight to keep your body and your skin healthy. Get your dose of Vitamin D without burning. Beyond 15 minutes, sunscreen is a must. Yet, your best protection from UV is staying in the shade as much as you can.

Get sufficient amount of sleep. 

If you’ve been chronically missing out on a good sleep. Try to sleep in at least 7 hours every night, and perhaps even a 30-minute nap at midday, for the next few days and you’ll notice the healthy difference sleep makes to your skin in time for Valentine’s Day.

Schedule an intense treatment.

Whether you’re planning on a DIY or booking a facial, the first thing you should know is what your specific skin needs are and then what specific treatments can address that. Dark marks call for a brightening mask. Wrinkles require laser treatments. Every skin type will benefit from a deep exfoliation every once in a while.

Red Lipped Golden Look For Valentine

CONCLUSION.

Aiming for beautiful skin may seem superficial but, in reality, it does have implications on bigger things like self-esteem and self-confidence.  Without these two, it’s just difficult, impossible even, to be beautiful. This Valentine’s Day, work on your skin but also, work on your character and personality. A good combination will spell out “beauty” — the kind that you’ve never seen before.
