Great skin care is all about things you can do for your skin, but there’s some things you shouldn’t do to your skin.

There so many things you can do for your skin, and your skin’s overall health. And I’ve talked about these before.

However one of the most important basics of skin care is to know what NOT to do to your skin.

Skin is extremely sensitive. It is the largest organ in your body, and is the organ, or outer reflection of yourself that everyone sees. If your liver or your kidneys or your stomach are unhealthy most people probably won’t notice, unless they’re extremely perceptive perhaps.

But if your skin is unhealthy EVERYONE notices. Just ask anyone with pimples.

So to look great you need great looking skin. Here’s 2 things you must avoid if you want great looking skin.

1. Sunburn. Sunburn is one of the worst things you can do for your skin, especially if you repeat the experience regularly. At worst it can lead to skin cancer, at best it damages sensitive skin cells and leads to skin damage which will show later in life.

Cover up or use a good sunscreen, and stay out of the worst daytime sun.

2. Smoking. There’s so many parts of your body that are damaged by smoking, but it includes your skin.

You’ve probably heard how smoking damages the vascular system. Ie damages your body’s ability to transport blood. Well damaged ability to transport blood also affects your skin.

Because like anything else the continued supply of fresh life giving oxygen to your skin via your blood is essential to long term skin health.

So whilst there’s some things you must do to maintain healthy wrinkle free skin, like using the best skincare products you can get, there’s also some things to avoid.

And don’t forget good diet and plenty of exercise too. Read the rest of this entry

It’s winter, it’s cold, but you still need to take care of your skin. Winter skin care.

We’ve talked a lot about taking care of your skin. By taking care of your skin we don’t necessarily mean using the best skin care products, although that’s a big part of it. We mean taking some basic day to day steps to care for the health of your skin.

And one of the biggest ones is avoiding sunburn. Sunburn is one of the worst things you can do for your skin. Sunburn damages your skin in many ways, and speeds up the skin aging process. And at worst it can kill you from skin cancer.

But now it’s winter, you couldn’t get sunburned in winter could you? Yes of course you could. Scientists are beginning to understand more and more how easy it is to get burned by the UV rays from the sun, and this includes winter. Yes you can get sunburned in winter.

And the easiest place to get your skin burned in winter is in the snow. Snow reflects the rays of the sun, they bounce right back up at your face and as well as getting burned on the face you can also get sunburned under the chin.

Yes, believe it or not, you can get burned under the chin, and it hurts. But it’s as bad as sunburn anywhere else.

Remember, sunburn is one of the worst things you can do to your skin, summer or winter.

So make sure you take care of your skin in winter too. Protect yourself from the sun with a good hat, long sleeved shirts and, where absolutely necessary, sunscreen.

Of course you need to use the best natural skin care products you can get, that’s an all year round requirement, but that’s not enough.

Protect your skin from sunburn all year. You’ll be glad you did. Read the rest of this entry
