A simple skin tip

Today's skin tip is You have to do more then just wash!

We would see this problem alot, people would come in saying "I wash my face with this every night and my skin still sucks". Well, just like you don't just brush your teeth you floss and mouth wash as well to make sure your teeth are white and healthy. The same goes for your skin.

When you only wash, your just removing the surface. The makeup/dirt/oils/debris. So once you have washed your face you haven't even touched your skin. After your face is clean, this is when you want to apply any of your treatment products (serums, masks,). If you don't have a specific treatment product, the next best thing is to just wash your face again. That way at least the ingredients of the face wash will be able to penetrate into your skin.

Also, make sure you are washing your face a minimum of two times a day. Once in the morning to clean off any dirt oils and sweat from the night before. And so you have a fresh surface to apply makeup onto. And another at night to clean off makeup and everything from the day. Also, it's a good idea to wash after any activity that makes you sweaty, such as going for a run, or any activity that exposes your face to certain chemicals, like chlorine when swimming.

Remember, my skin tips are little things iv'e learned in school and after. I will always try to give simple tips that will cost very little to nothing. Just things you can incorporate into your daily life to help your skin. Of course there are great products and treatments you can get, however most of those require a bit more money and maintenance. I may share some of those one day, just not for now.

A Simple Skin Tip

Today I wanted to share a pretty simple tip, to help you get beautiful skin! When I went to school for esthetics we got all kinds of great tips, from the simplest of things to the best products, to amazing treatments. I thought today we would talk about one of those very simple things you can do every day to help your skin & I promise it wont cost hardly anything.

This amazing tip is....Pillow Cases. When I first heard this I had a huge DUH moment, why didn't I think of this? So think about it. All those oils, dirt, & products that are in your hair. Not to mention left over make up if you didn't wash your face before bed, sweat, drool, anything from your pet if they lay on your bed, and pretty much anything else you can think of. They are sitting on your pillow cases, and your face is laying on them all night long. It irritates your skin, and can cause breakouts. So what you do, is go out and buy a bunch of cheep pillow cases [I prefer white ones since there is no dye & they are easy to bleach, but you can choose any color that matches your decor in your room] and then change your pillow cases often! At least 2 times a week. & you can save the fancy pillows cases that came with your bed set for when you want to show off your room! Now you have a fresh clean place for your face all night long. Now this won't be the one thing that will give you 100% perfect skin, but it will definitely help by keeping out all those impurities from clogging your pores and irritating your skin. It definitely helped me and made some difference in my skin!

Try it out, let me know if this helps you at all. Or at least makes you feel a little fresher and cleaner when you wake up in the morning :D
