How to Have Perfect Skin As a Teen
Everyone wants skin that just glows, right? Adult products are usually
too expensive or just plain wrong for young skin. So here is a skin care
routine that won't blow your budget, but will keep you feeling great!
Drink water
Drinking water clears all the toxins from your skin and prevents it from drying out. Take a water bottle with you to school. Resist the urge to glug soda or juice when you're thirsty. Instead, have a sip of water. Not only does this help your skin, it improves your overall health.
Eat healthy and exercise
The skin reflects overall health, so if you nourish your body with
plenty of exercise and good, healthy food, your skin will look great as
well. Try to consume healthy fats, oils, and proteins every day. Make
sure to include fruits and vegetables. At lunch, pick up an apple or a
banana and opt for a side salad instead of French fries. Try to walk
home or take a quick walk around the track. If your parents or a friend
drives you home, ask them to drop you off a block or two away from your
house so you can walk home. Enlist in a sport.
Cleanse your body
When taking a shower, you want to buy a soap or shower gel that is good
for your skin.Unscented soaps are best. Shower gels are best for smooth
skin, but there are plenty of bar soaps that work great as well. Follow
the directions on the shower gel bottle to wash yourself with shower
gel. With soap, put the soap under the water from the shower to get it
warmed up. Then rub it between your hands. Rub the soap all over your
body and rinse off.
After cleansing your body, take a blast of cold water from the shower head for smooth beautiful skin. Only one blast doesn't make you cold, but it makes a big difference.
Cleanse your face
Pull your hair back and splash your face with cold water to wake your
skin up. Put some cleanser on your fingers and rub it in upwards
circular motions around your face. Use a product that is specific for
young skin and your skin type. Rinse well by splashing water on your
face again, being careful to remove every last bit of cleanser. Pat your face dry with a paper towel, hand towel, or even a bit of toilet paper. DO NOT RUB! Even though using toilet paper on your face sounds disgusting, it's very gentle and doesn't cause irritation on your face.
Use a toner
Toners are inexpensive and can be found at your local drugstore. If you
can't buy toner, feel free to use a little bit of rice water for a fresh
face. A toner will pick up everything in your pores that the cleanser
didn't get out (dirt, oil, makeup). It will leave your skin feeling
refreshed, smooth, tight and springy. But make sure there's no alcohol
in it because that will make your skin more oily and dry!
Moisturize
Moisturizing is key. From school to sports, we can lose the moisture in
our skin pretty easily. Moisturize after cleansing and toning so your
skin stays soft and smooth. Also, moisturize your skin after showers.
Try to find a moisturizer with at least SPF 15. Also, a night
moisturizer made for after your nighttime wash can help to renew your
skin while you sleep. When moisturizing your skin, take an amount the
size of a pea.
Exfoliate twice a week
Buy a scrub, loofah, or just use a wet washcloth. Rub your face and body
with the item of your choice during a hot shower. If using a scrub,
follow the directions on the package. This gets rid of dead skin and
makes your skin glow.
