1. An overlooked Skin Care tip is to protect yourself from the sun! Skin Care begins first by not exposing your skin to the most dangerous element -the sun. Use sunscreen and avoid direct sunlight between the hours of 10 and 2.
2. Don't -- I repeat -- don't smoke. Your skin is a large organ and it needs a lot of circulation. Smoking impairs skin care dramatically. That's why smokers' skin looks dull and gray. It is near impossible to practice good skin care while smoking. Instead of having oxy-generated blood delivered to the surface of the skin, the skin receives poisons and oxidants.
3. Start your daily skin care plan by Hydrating. Hydrate your skin by drinking only water at the beginning of the day and throughout the day.
4. As you can tell from prior tips, proper skin care can be influenced by a lot of environmental factors including stress - Protect yourself from both emotional and environmental stress.
5. Take care of your face by washing your face twice a day using a cleanser containing AHA's in the morning and a cleansing milk in the evening.
6. Don't neglect certain areas of the skin. Skin care includes the Elbows, heels, and neck. These parts of your body that have been exposed to the elements over the years need exfoliation and moisturizing. Try using a body wash containing AHA's and vitamins to exfoliate and nourish your entire body. Skin care literally is from head to toe.
7. Touch your face less and wash your hands more! It's very tempting to pick, poke, squeeze, and scratch your skin in front of the mirror. But the more you traumatize the skin, the greater your risk of infection and scarring. Apply treatment products for skin care and let them work.
8. Keep your makeup clean. Replace the sponges in your compact, and clean your brushes on a regular basis.
9. You are what you eat. Often, oily skin, dry skin, and other skin problems can also result from an improper diet or not eating/absorbing adequate nutrients! A nutrient tip to counter or supplement your current diet is to take Vitamin C. Vitamin C in a daily dosage of 2000 mg is recommended to help maintain and prevent the appearance of "broken blood vessels." Vitamin C is one of the building blocks of blood vessel walls and helps strengthen them. This leads to more resilient skin.

10. Keep your skin care regimen simple. And when you do add a new product, do it gradually so your skin has time to adjust. Skin care does not work with over indulgence or overuse. So adjust your skin care program as needed to apply the right amount of products that you need.
