Healthy Habits for Healthy Skin
Yes, there are things you can and should be doing daily for healthy skin. For starters, limit the amount of sun you are getting, especially between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. when the sun is the strongest. This will help reduce wrinkles, age spots and other skin problems.
Seek the shade, use sunscreen and wear a hat to the beach!
You can also refrain from smoking, which can make your skin look older and contribute to wrinkles. If you smoke, really try to quit.
A diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean proteins will help too. Some research also suggests that a diet rich in Vitamin C and low in unhealthy fats and processed foods can promote healthy, younger looking skin and help you avoid adult acne too. And drink up--water, water and more water. Your skin will thank you.
Moisturize your skin and cleanse with warm water instead of hot will also make a difference. Pat your skin dry or blot with a towel. This will help retain moisture.
Finally, manage your stress. It does make a difference. Sleep, relax, set limits, scale back and your skin will thank you.
