Summer is almost here! It’s time for fun in the sun and good times! We all want to look our best this summer, from the way we dress to having perfect looking skin. Today I’m going to discuss six tips to help you have healthier looking skin.
1. Use a Treatment like Differin® Gel. Differin® Gel is the first and only prescription strength retinoid for clearing and preventing acne, and it is now available over the counter. It’s the newest advancement and ingredient in the OTC acne category in over 30 years! The product works to clear breakouts from deep in the pores where they start to prevent breakouts before they begin, and over time the product helps to restore your skin’s texture and tone. Differin® Gel is not used in the same way as a spot treatment. In order to get the best results, you should apply a thin layer all over the face, once a day, every day.
Please use caution when using Differin® Gel with more than one acne treatment or glycolic acid product because this could lead to irritation.
You can find Differin® Gel in the skincare aisle at Walmart. Go to Differin.com to get $2 off Differin® Gel and use it on your next shopping trip to Walmart!
A few weeks ago, I shared a photo where I highlighted some of my acne prone areas, and today I’m sharing an after photo taken eight weeks after using Differin® Gel.
2. Use a good cleanser. Wash your face twice a day with a cleanser that fits your skin type. The makers of Differin® Gel also have a cleanser that works well in combination with the Differin® Gel.
3. Drink Plenty of Water – Your body needs water in order for your cells and organs to function properly, and your skin is the biggest organ you have. Drinking plenty of water also helps you to eliminate toxins, and it helps your skin to stay hydrated and maintain its elasticity.
4. Stay out of tanning beds and limit your sun exposure. Too much UV exposure can cause premature aging of your skin, including wrinkles and age spots (as well as putting you at risk for skin cancer). When you are out in the sun, it is important to use a good sunscreen to protect your skin.
5. Use a good moisturizer. Along with cleansing and treating your skin, it is important to use a moisturizer, such as a day cream, bb cream, or evening moisturizer. I like using a tinted moisturizer with a sunscreen to moisturize my skin and protect me from sun exposure.
6. Limit cosmetic use. Obviously we all want to look our best, but if you are spending the day at home or just making a short trip to the store, then go bare. Not wearing makeup will allow your skin to breathe. Also, many of the makeup products we use can actually clog pores, and many of them contain hazardous chemicals and toxins. Limiting use of these cosmetics should help the appearance of your skin and your overall skin health. You could also switch to cosmetics that contain only natural ingredients.
