Give Your Skin A Real Boost With These Handy Tips

Healthy skin is just as important for most of us as a healthy body, but today there are so many potions and promises on which to spend so much of our hard earned money on, that it's almost ridiculous! I want to offer some solid healthy skin tips, especially considering the Phoenix climate.

In order to best care for your skin, be sure to keep it moist at all times by using a gentle non-oily moisturizer. Allowing your skin to become dried out will cause damage to the outer layers, which can result in a rough, unattractive look. Moisturizers work best when applied while the skin is still damp from cleansing.

Give yourself a spa day, every now and then. There are so many great spas in Phoenix. Not only will a facial, mud mask or detoxifying body scrub, help you release stress which is good for your skin, it will also give it a day of pampering. Try to save up each quarter and make it a special occasion.

Drink less alcohol. You should cut back on the alcohol unless it is for a truly special occasion. Drinking can cause your pores to enlarge and can increase oil production in your face. It also will make you dehydrated the next day which can cause skin to appear dull and unattractive.

Basic skin care and health can be achieved through many ways and we hope you have found at least one way within this article. Keep these tips and advice in mind the next time you are walking down around a Phoenix skin care store and contemplating those price tags and all of those impossible to pronounce ingredients!
