The skin is the largest organ in the human body, but it’s one we expect to do its job without support from us. While you eat a range of fruit and vegetables to make sure your other organs are healthy, what are you doing to support your skin and keep it clean and healthy? You can use organic skin care products, but there are also many other things to try.
Wear Sunscreen
Everyone knows that the sun can be fairly intense in Australia, but very few of us do everything we can to help our skin deal with it. Of course, getting that golden sun tan is always nice, but what about the after-effects? Do you want the age spots, sun damage, and melanoma risk that go with it? You can keep your skin clean and healthy by wearing sunscreen. However, do your research and opt for organic skin care products where possible.
Buy Quality Skin Care Products
Everyone likes to get a bargain, but it shouldn’t be at the cost of your skin. If you’re trying to keep it clean, healthy, and smooth, then reach for organic skin care products. Not only do they feature all-natural ingredients and no harmful toxins, but they’re also cruelty-free and far better for your skin. The best part is, they are also as affordable as many well-known skin care brands.
Change and Clean Your Makeup Tools
When was the last time you thoroughly cleaned your makeup brushes and sponges? If you can’t remember, then go and find them and throw them out. The quickest way to put your skin at risk of imperfections such as spots and acne is by continually using the same, unclean brush or sponge. Think about what you are exposing them to every day? Your makeup tools are full of oils, dead skin, dust, and other particles that clog up your pores and damage your skin.
Drink Water
Keeping your skin clean can be as easy as sipping away at your water bottle throughout the day. Your skin is the last to get any water you consume, which can mean your body overproduces oils to make up for the shortfall. Instead of hydrating your skin, it makes it dry and prone to breakouts.
Wash Your Face
Whether you use organic skin care products to wash your face or only water, it doesn’t matter – just remember to do it. Washing your face every day, at least twice, is crucial. When you wash it in the morning, you’re freeing up your pores from all that dead skin and dust that accumulated during the night. And, when you go to bed at night, you’re washing off that makeup, dirt, oil, and grime that sits on your face and wreaks havoc.
Keeping your skin clean is a natural process, but it’s not one that everyone puts effort into doing. Invest in a quality organic skin care product, set up a routine for its use, then make a conscious effort to protect and clean one of your most precious organs, your skin.
