How many of these do you do on a daily basis?
Nothing will age you faster than sun damage. Wear sunscreen every day, rain or shine. There are two types of damaging sun rays: UVA, which are responsible for aging the skin; and UVB, which are responsible for burning it. Make sure your sunscreen has protection from both.
Because it's the #1 most important thing you can do for your health, not to mention there is nothing that will keep you looking fresher.
Because you really don't want a day's worth of toxins, dirt and oil on your skin for 8 extra hours. This bad habit will cause breakouts, dull looking skin, enlarged pores and irritation.
Nighttime is prime time for using skin care products. At night, your skin creates new cells and works to repair itself, and you can give it a little boost with the right skincare products. Retinoids, alpha hydroxy, glycolic and lactic acid help your skin shed old cells, create new ones, fade dark spots and produce more collagen. But never forget to moisturize! Your skin needs constant hydration, and these ingredients can be drying.
From the food we eat to the beauty products we use, you wouldn't believe how many toxins and harmful products we are putting on and into our bodies every day. Try to choose organic food always, and organic skincare products whenever possible!

Not getting enough water can lead to all sorts of healthy issues, no to mention your skin, hair and nails will look tired if you're dehydrated. Drinking plenty of water (half your body weight in ounces, to be exact) will give you plump, glowing, acne free skin, shiny hair and strong nails.
We spend so much time on skincare for your face, that we often forget about the rest of our bodies. The rest of our skin needs attention too, and moisturizing is super important. Make an effort to moisturize each night before putting on your pjs. Your skin will thank you.
