Do's and Don'ts For a Healthy, Glowing Skin
1. Taking hot showers
We all love languishing in a steamy shower but hot water can damage delicate facial skin.
"If you're prone to redness the heat can weaken capillaries making redness worse so aim for a tepid temperature," the Daily Express quoted Shula Starkey, founder of Ark Skincare, as saying.
2. Stressing out
It's well known that stress has a negative effect on health but it adversely affects your skin too. Try yoga and deep breathing techniques and treat your skin to a destressing product.
"The stress hormone cortisol is your skin's worst ageing enemy and as we age levels rise.
"Avoid coffee and alcohol to relieve stress as it will only ramp up cortisol levels," said Starkey.
3. Rushing your cleansing routine
The new trend of cleansing in a hurry using packet wipes has many skin experts cringing.
"Inadequate cleansing can lead to bacteria build-up and skin break-outs," she said.
4. Dieting
Sticking to a strict low-fat diet can age and dull skin. Good fats are crucial for skin health, repair, moisture and flexibility.
