Helpful Skin Care Tips For You

Skin Care TipsI am excited to share with you these helpful skin care tips. To begin this look into the depths of our skin, let’s first note that our skin is the largest organ in our bodies.  It must protect our internal organs, and remove any toxins that we may ingest. With today’s modern diet, that is easy to do.

It is an obvious fact that our skin is the part of us that gets the most exposure. Our skin has to deal with all of the outside lements such as the sun, the wind, and the cold. It also has to face the critical eyes of our co-workers, our family and our friends on a daily basis.

Therefore, we should want our skin to reflect the Lord’s glory, continually. Beautiful, radiant skin will bring Him great glory! To handle all this pressure, take a good look at my skin care tips below.

External Skin Care Tips

To get started with some tips about skin care, I want you to know that it is really rather simple to take good care for our skin. To maintain our skin, we must keep it clean from birth until death do us part.

Our part in this process is to be sure our bodies are cleansed daily. Natural chemical-free soaps and cleansers are a great start.

Our faces are much more delicate than the rest of our body. To ensure our pores are kept clean, we should wash our faces daily and use a moisturizer to avoid drying out our facial skin.

It is also important to keep our hands clean since we are constantly touching our faces. Dirt that gets on our face can easily clog up our pores and caue blemishes.

While it is important that we give our faces special attention, we must not neglect the skin care needs of the rest of our bodies. Again cleansers such as body washes and hand soaps should be free of harsh chemicals. I also suggest that you avoid these anti-bacterial hand cleansers because they also kill helpful bacterial on our skin.

Our skin needs to be protected because it protects all of the organs in our body. When our skin begins to fail, it opens the way for our insides to be compromised.

Because our skin can absorb chemicals and other things in the atmosphere, we need to be extremely careful about what we expose it to. Be cautious and use protective coverings when handling cleaning chemicals such as bleach and ammonia.

The queen of effective skin care is a steady supply of moisturizer for our skin. Depending on the type of climate you live in, you should take into account the climate you live in and your skin type.

Since skin tends to be much drier in the winter months, we must be sure to apply extra moisturizer during these months. We need to remember that our whole body needs moisturizing, including our feet.

Our skin can give us signs telling us whether we are caring correctly for our skin. If our skin becomes flaky, it is not getting the moisture it needs. If you are experiencing flaky or tight skin, add more moisturizing time to your daily routine.

Also remember, when your skin is dry, those wrinkles show up so much more obviously. Moisturizers and nourishing skin oils are worth the investment.

Internal Skin Care Tips

While what we put on our skin is extremely important, we have all heard the following expression, “You are what you eat.” This is an important aspect that many people have neglected. Your skin will reflect the consequences of your poor dietary choices. What we eat will show in our face and all over our body. A healthy diet will lead to heathy skin.

Some simple skin care tips related to your diet include drinking plenty of water on a daily basis.  Water is an essential indredient in beautiful, radiant skin, and tops the list for what we need to do for our skin.

How simple is that? I know you have heard this before, but make sure that you drink at least 8 glasses of water a day.

Other diet related skin care tips include adding fresh vegetables and fruits to your meals as often as possible. Avoid the bleach processed foods and soda drinks if possible.

In closing, spend time with the Lord.  I love this song I used to sing with my kids when they were younger. “My body is a temple and Jesus lives within it. My body is a temple of the Holy Spirit.”

Ultimately, our bodies are supposed to be temples of God! If we can keep this in mind, it won’t be hard at all to do everything necessary to keep our skin glorious!

I believe that you will see improvements in your skin if you follow these SKIN CARE TIPS.
