How can I maintain healthy skin?
: How can I maintain healthy skin? How does drinking plenty of water affect my skin?
ANSWER: Moisture Is Key. Moisture is critical to good skincare because it helps maintain a barrier and creates a flexible, pliable skin that is soft to touch. Your skin knows that moisture is important and uses a variety of methods to retain it.During the winter, the lack of humidity and the wind remove critical moisture from the skin, leaving it itchy, dull and flaky. In the summer, the heat and sun's rays can cause damage via sun burning and peeling if responsible tanning is not followed. The secret is to protect your skin by incorporating a quality moisturizer into your daily routine.Water is the vehicle that delivers essential nutrients to the skin; so moisturize right after your morning shower or bath to optimize your skin's health. If you make this part of your daily routine, you will notice a significant difference within a few days.Additionally, it is important to replenish your skin after tanning in a tanning bed. Take a few minutes to apply a moisturizer or after-tan product; if you are in a hurry to get back to the office, use one of the newer cooling mists on the market, you'll re-hydrate and smell great at the same time. Regardless of your daily activities, there is one ingredient that offers better skincare for everyone-water. Do you remember to quench your skin's thirst with eight glasses of water a day? Not only convenient and clean, this natural necessity often is overlooked when thinking about skincare. Water aids in the elimination and cleansing process of your digestive system, as well as providing you with necessary nourishment. When this system is unhealthy, the skin is usually the first to show it.
