Top Beauty Advice:

Hydrate

Drinking at least 2 liters of water daily not only helps flush out toxins inside the body but also hydrates the skin and prevents lip-cracks and wrinkly lips. This is definitely the most basic and easiest way to hydrate from within.

Block & Protect

The number one way to prevent skin aging is to apply sunblock daily. Minimum requirement is at least SPF 50 before leaving the house and you’re good to go. Some women reapply sunscreen every few hours to make sure that their skin is well protected from UV rays. There are also lip balms available in the market which have SPF to protect the lips from the sun.

Moisturize

This is the best defense against dryness. Make sure you apply enough moisturizer after shower to seal in the moisture that your skin just absorbed.

Never Sleep with Makeup On (Never Ever)

Aside from the fact that it’s so gross, sleeping with makeup on causes premature wrinkles, breakouts, dry skin, clogged pores and chapped lips. If these reasons don’t keep you from breaking the bad habit, I don’t know what will.

SLEEP

Stress ages the skin and can cause dull complexion and acne. skin and in a busy world like ours, it may be a bit difficult for busy women with goals to achieve at least 8 hours of sleep daily. But this is one ofthe most effective ways to eliminate the bad effect that stress had on our skin. So sleep at least 8 hours daily in order to achieve that younger and clearer skin. After all, it’s always better to arrive late than ugly.
