We all want glowing skin. However just like anything in life it does take some real effort. We are often in awe when we see models with perfect skin and attribute their beauty to great genes. The truth is that we can all bring out our inner beauty. Every one of us has an internal glow ready to be unleashed. I have set out on a journey to find out everything and anything there is to know about having beautiful skin while radiating from the inside out. Here is the first step to my journey which I would love to share with all of you.
I asked our Lavish Life expert Dr. Laurie Tadlock about some common skin care mistakes that could be destroying our skin.
Here is what she said:
Skin is resilient but it is important to treat it gently:
a. Don’t over scrub or use a harsh product to cleanse your skin – you can accomplish the same thing with a gentle lotion cleanser
b. Don’t pick at acne lesions –itwill not make them go away faster and may result in scarring.
c. Don’t keep switching products without a good reason –if you find a regimen that works stick with it
d. Don’t forget to take off your makeup at night – even if you only cleanse once a day, this is the time todo it.
e. Don’t forget your sunscreen – even in the winter UVA rays penetrate through your driver’s side window.
A few simple steps and you are on your way to glowing skin! At Lavish Life we love Aqua Reveal’s face water peel for that gentle exfoliation your skin deserves.
More tips to come. Stay well and know that you are beautiful!
