Looking for a great natural healthy skin remedy? You should start with your lifestyle. You've probably heard it before but it does matter what you eat, getting enough sleep, exercising and having a regular skincare regimen. These are all necessary to your skin health.
Fruits and vegetables feed your body the nutrients it needs including antioxidants. These antioxidants fight free radicals in your environment that destroy your cells aging you quicker. You want to get rid of them!
According to Prevention magazine, you can cut an apple in half and cover one half with lemon juice and lets it sit for four days. The lemon juice is full of antioxidants and vitamin c and keeps the apple fresh-the half that isn't treated with lemon juice, well it turns brown and sags. Think of what they do for your skin!
Getting exercise will keep the oxygen flowing through your body which gets the nutrients from your diet where they need to go and it makes your skin glow.
And you know if you don't get enough sleep you look tired and fatigued. That only increases skin problems like dark circles under your eyes and dull looking skin.
Any part of a healthy lifestyle should include a good skin care regimen too. Regular cleansing and moisturizing will keep your skin looking healthy.
You need to cleanse your skin at night to remove dirt accumulation and make up so your pores won't get clogged. You need to cleanse it in the morning because your body has been renewing itself and leaving a filmy residue on your skin over night.
Moisturizing is important because this helps to keep your skin balanced and hydrated. If you use a moisturizer with antioxidants like Vitamin E and Active Manuka Honey you'll be fighting aging and keeping your skin healthy. Remember the apple example above!
There are lots of natural healthy skin remedies you can try including using cucumber slices or cooled tea bags to relieve puffy eyes. To try either of these, you just need to lie down and put the cucumber slices or tea bags (used, cool) on your eyes for 10-15 minutes. The drawback is you could fall asleep of you're really tired! Plus, remedies like this are short term.
You could also make your own face masque using yogurt, just smear plain yogurt on your clean face and leave it for 10 minutes. It'll help to hydrate your skin which keeps it looking young.
For a longer term natural healthy skin remedy, you can choose skincare products with ingredients to boost your collagen and elastin proteins. These will naturally firm your skin and help your face to maintain its shape. There are face masques, cleansers and moisturizers that will boost your collagen cells and "feed" your skin those important antioxidants.
