Tips on Getting and Keeping Clear Skin

Everyone gets the occasional zit, but how can we keep our skin blemish free longer? Here are some easy tips to achieve a clear complexion.

• Drink lots of water. Water is essential for a healthy body and it's great for your skin. It'll leave it glowing and zit-free.
• Cut soda and greasy foods out of your diet. Poor eating habits accomplish nothing, and are a big part of breakouts. Replace soda and fatty foods with water and foods high in vitamins A, C, and E (ex: salmon, blueberries, carrots, etc.)
• Keep a skincare routine. Find skincare products that work for you and establish a routine. Keeping a routine puts your skin on a healthy schedule. Remember to limit the items you use.
• Wash your hands frequently. All the grease and oils from your food will linger on your fingers till you wash them off.
• Which brings me to...Don't touch your face. This is a BIG factor in zits.
• Love and protect your skin. Use a moisturizer with SPF or apply sunscreen each day, quit smoking, and exercise.
