The habits you need for long-lasting beautiful skin

Hi ladies,

So summer has ended and now we all return back to normal life – what a shame! Perhaps over this time we’ve allowed ourselves to relax, be a bit lazy, and paid less attention to our normal beauty routines, instead just enjoying the glorious sun. In today’s article I want to talk about how to keep and build on habits which help you to maintain youthful and glowing skin – even if you think you don’t have the time!

The most basic habit is to keep a positive attitude. Sometimes I hear women say: “I’m still young, I have children, I do not have time to really take care of myself. It doesn’t matter though because when I get older I’ll just inject botox, use wrinkle cures and all will be well.” This is the biggest mistake in my opinion.

It’s never too late to start looking after your skin, but I want to remind you that beginning to treat the skin as early as possible will result in longer lasting beauty and it will require less investment in the future than the costly procedures to remove wrinkles and such later in life.

Did you know that Leather matures in just 25 years? On average, from age 25 your skin begins to age too. It seems that you might have only just finished the fight with youthful acne and oily skin, yet now it’s time to moisturise and nourish your skin, because the aging process has started (blame mother nature!).

In aging the skin loses elasticity, wrinkles begin to appear, and additionally pigmented spots form. This process can not be stopped, but the acquisition of good habits, maintaining and nurturing the skin can keep it glowing and beautiful for a very long time.

So if you want beautiful skin you must accept the requirement of skin care routines in the same way as you accept brushing your teeth every day. At first it may bother you and you’ll probably find yourself a lot of excuses: “I’m too tired”, “nothing will happen if I don’t wash my make-up off before sleep tonight”, etc.

Here are a few tips to help you out:

• Put on the bathroom shelf eye makeup remover, cleanser, toner and day cream. When you see them all there it’ll remind you that you MUST apply them daily!
• On the bedside cabinet have some eye and night creams so you can complete the daily beauty routine just before bed. It will take no more than 2 minutes to do, yet just this habit will ensure your enjoyment of long lasting beautiful skin.
• Finally, keep your positive attitude! Know that if you stick to these habits you will keep your skin looking younger for longer.

Afterall, don’t we all wish that when we’re older ladies, we can look in the mirror and mutter to ourselves “Damn! you look good!” 🙂

Today I started with what is most important, in my upcoming blog articles I will be talking about more in-depth and step-by-step skincare routines as well as what skin care products you should use depending on age and the time of year. I’ll also talk about the most commonly made mistakes, the benefits that each facial care product gives to our skin and how not to get lost in the confusing maze of products offered by the cosmetics industry! Be sure to check back soon for those!

I hope you enjoyed the information this time, have a lovely day!
