Healthier, younger looking skin is the best sign that you’re enjoying great health generally. Overall health is vital. Despite being in the peak of health, if you neglect your skin it will soon start to look old and wrinkled, which isn’t a good look for anyone. Thankfully, there are things you can do to keep your skin looking even better. We’ve sourced one hundred of the best sites on the internet with tips for having fabulous skin all the time. They cover a huge range of topics and are packed with all the essential skin health information you’ll ever need.
“Always read labels – Arm yourself by reading labels. Look for products free from fragrances and paraben preservatives, two common causes of irritation and flare-ups.”

“Don’t rely on your healthy tan – Tanned skin will forever contain cells whose genetic structures have been permanently damaged by the sun.”
“Cut way back on processed foods and sugars – They promote inflammation, a biochemical process that damages the normal production of dermal cells.”

“Take more Iron – Without adequate iron, hair can shed excessively and the hair shaft itself can become brittle and broken.”

“Simplify your makeup routine. Stick to the basics: mascara, lip gloss, concealer and switch to a bronzing blush to show off your natural beauty this summer.”

“Just add honey – To soften stubborn dry patches on rough elbows and knees, opt for a rich, hydrating scrub.”

“Bump up your vitamins – One of the best things you can do for your skin is to increase your intake of antioxidants, which helps protect skin from free radicals.”

“Say yes to cream, No to lotion – Cream products are oil-based and contain humectants, which lock-in moisture, while lotions are usually water based.”

“Use gel application – Topical gel application helps in managing symptoms related to varicose veins such as inflammation, pain, swelling, itching and dryness. Topical application-noninvasive has patient compliance.”

“Avoid picking, squeezing, and popping – Picking, popping, and squeezing can turn a minor breakout into a major problem — a permanent acne scar.”

“Make friends with glycolic or salicylic acid – Moisturizers that contain glycolic acid or salicylic acid will help remove dead skin and keep your pores from clogging.”
