As humans we get the raw end of the deal, don't you think? Ponder this for just a moment, we all start off with gorgeous, flawless skin right out of the womb. Then as we get closer to 30 the nightmare begins. It's true when they say; beauty is wasted on the youth! Why can't we start off old and wrinkled and get more radiant as time goes on?! So, is there a solution to this unjust supply of flawlessness? Maybe not a complete obliteration of aging skin, but there are ways to delay the challenging effects of time. If you would like to keep your skin looking its best for as long as possible, you need to develop a skin care plan of attack and then stick to it. Here are 6 basic steps to help you achieve and keep healthy-looking skin. Step #1: Skin Assessment Perform a skin evaluation to determine what issues you are dealing with your skin right now. If you're like most people, time and sun worship have already done some damage to your skin. It's that whole raw end of the deal thing; it happens to the best of us as we go throughout our lives. Before you can begin to plan a skin care routine, you need to know what your problem areas are. Examine your skin and take note of what needs attention. Step #2: Products and solutions Find out what skin treatment products are on the market over the counter to help clear up whatever skin problems you may be coping with. Be it acne, dryness, wrinkles or blemishes, you need to make sure you choose targeted products for your particular needs. Look for heavy hitter ingredients like vitamin An and C which are known to show visible improvements on the skin. There are many affordable and effective skin care products available at your local drug store, but buyer beware, not all skin care products are made equal. Don't just relay on the sales person to know what's right for you, they're usually not experts. Invest some time and shop around before just putting anything on your face. Step #3: Do it right When you purchase your skin care products you won't have the luxury of a skin care specialist to go over how to correctly use the products with you. Make sure you follow the directions precisely. Do patch tests even though you think you've got skin of steel. You never know what side effects you could develop. To get the most benefit, make use of them the right way or they may not be as effective especially if you purchased them from your neighborhood store. Also, you never know how long the products have been sitting on the shelf so be aware . Carefully read and follow all the directions for how much to use, how to apply and how frequently to administer each treatment. Step #4: Seek professional advice Seek out a dermatologist to diagnose and treat any skin conditions you can't take care of on your own. There are some skin conditions that just cannot be treated effectively with over-the-counter products alone. Get the advice of a skin care professional, and properly use whatever doctor prescribed remedies they give you. Step #5: Wash your hands Don't ever touch your face without washing your hands first. Bacteria are your worst enemy when it comes to your face, and your hands have a ton of it. You touch so many things throughout the day that are swarming with these invisible little microbes that wreak havoc on your skin. Avoid touching your face as much as possible, and only put your hands to your face if they have been cleaned with soap or hand sanitizer. And don't get me started on going to bed without washing your face! Step #6: Consistency After you have developed your skin care plan, keep up with it on a daily basis. The treatments are only going to work if you consistently use them. Don't be lazy! It can be hard to commit to and keep up with any new daily habit. On the other hand, if you stick with it for a few weeks, it will steadily become as natural as brushing your teeth. It is common that your skin will not stay baby smooth permanently. But you can definitely fight aging skin every step of the way. Use the suggestions in this article to come up with a skin care routine, and then follow it every day to attain healthy-looking skin. Fight aging every step of the way! Take the Skin Assessment Test and find out what products work best to keep your skin healthy and youthful for years to come
