Younger looking skin Beauty Secrets

Younger looking skin is one of the most coveted things in this day and age. It is quite apparent that young and healthy looking skin is a naturally attractive attribute of any person.

While aging of skin is inevitable, you can certainly slow down the process of aging. Few human attributes signal health and youth like a clear, glowing complexion.

We all start out with a similarly clean slate skin-wise, but by the time you reach your 20s -- and definitely in the decades that follow -- your skin will start to reveal what type of lifestyle you've lead.

 In reality, though, your skin will start to show wear and tear long before that. Some of this may be related to your genes -- if your mother was wrinkle-free until she turned 65, you may be too -- but more so, it's related to how you live.

 Read on to know more about some secrets which can help you to get younger looking skin.

 Pare Down Your Beauty Products Overtreating your skin with multiple products is one of the most common problems.
 1. One gentle everyday facial cleanser.
2. Two good moisturizers -- one with sunscreen for day, and another for night.
3. An exfoliant to use two or three times a week.

 Limit Intense Sun Exposure Exposing

Your skin to intense sunlight for an extended period of time may result in sunburn, which you always want to avoid. Sunburned skin is more susceptible to damage and may age more quickly. During the hottest hours of the day, typically this is between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., be sure to limit your sun exposure by wearing a wide-brimmed hat or other protective clothing, particularly during the summer months. Using sunscreen is not a good way to limit your sun exposure; in fact, sunscreen is one of the LAST things you want to put on your body. Sunscreen is a toxic chemical that can cause problems in your system and increase your risk of disease. Remember that sunlight is not something to be avoided. You need sunlight in order to stay healthy. The key is to gradually build up your resistance to the sun by going out slowly in the beginning of the season, perhaps 10 minutes at a time to start, and always avoid getting burned.

 Relax Your Facial Muscles
 If you frown (or smile broadly) often, over time lines will form where the muscles tend to contract. Try to become aware of any tense muscles in your face and make a conscious effort to relax them. Similarly, sleeping on your face may cause wrinkles to appear over time because of the continuous pressure and pulling of your facial skin. Try sleeping on your back or varying your sleeping positions so that you don’t create permanent creases in your skin.

 Get Plenty of Omega-3 Omega-3 fatty acids

Are essential to healthy skin, but unfortunately most people are seriously deficient. Making sure you get enough omega-3 in your diet, by taking fish oil or cod liver oil regularly, will help to keep your skin looking vibrant, young and healthy. Omega-3 fats help to normalize skin lipids and prevent dehydration in the cells. This keeps skin cells strong and full of moisture, which can help to decrease the appearance of fine lines. Fatty acid deficiency can manifest in a variety of ways, but skin problems such as eczema, thick patches of skin, and cracked heels are common. Plus, omega-3 fats may have an anti-inflammatory effect that can help to calm irritated skin, giving you a clear, smooth complexion. Aside from taking a high-quality fish oil or krill oil, you can also indulge in delicious, omega-3-packed Vital Choice salmon--the only fish I’ll now eat. Although I don’t recommend eating most commercial fish due to mercury contamination, the Vital Choice brand of salmon, which comes from the cold, pristine waters of Alaska, proved to contain less than .1ppm of mercury and no other toxins when we had it lab tested. If you choose to eat fish from another source, please be sure it has been independently lab-tested and found to be safe to eat.

 Avoid Cigarette Smoke

 Whether you smoke yourself or are around people who do, cigarette smoke exposes you to damaging free radicals that will accelerate the aging process by damaging the microcapillaries in the skin. This limits the skin’s ability to absorb nutrients, which accelerates wrinkling and aging. Antioxidants, such as those found in fresh vegetables and fruit like organic blueberries, can help to fight free-radical damage and will naturally promote healthy, young-looking skin. A diet with plenty of vegetables will also provide plenty of micronutrients and antioxidants, which will limit damage from the sun and accelerate the skin’s repair processes.

 Research has shown that the antioxidants in vitamins C and E can protect the skin from sun damage and help reduce damage in skin cells caused by harmful free radicals, which contribute to aging skin. Similarly, we have long known that the B vitamin biotin is responsible for forming the basis of skin, hair and nail cells, and vitamin A -- found in many fruits and vegetables -- maintains and repairs skin tissue. Without an adequate supply of these vitamins, you may notice it in the appearance of your skin, hair and nails." 3 Coconut Oil Using virgin coconut oil as you would any lotion is an ideal way to rejuvenate skin. Not only does it prevent the formation of damaging free radicals and protect against them, but also it can help to keep the skin from developing liver spots and other blemishes caused by aging and overexposure to sunlight. Coconut oil keeps the skin’s connective tissues strong and supple, which helps to prevent sagging and wrinkles, and in some cases it might even restore damaged or diseased skin.

 Coconut oil 

Will not only bring temporary relief to the skin, but it will aid in healing and repairing, unlike most lotions. The coconut oil can help bring back a youthful appearance to your skin by removing the outer layer of dead skin cells, making the skin smoother. The skin will become more evenly textured with a healthy "shine." And the coconut oil will penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin and strengthen the underlying tissues. Naturally, you need to choose a high-quality coconut oil that is free of chemicals and is not bleached or hydrogenated, all of which can irritate your skin, if you want to experience the maximum healing effects. My team and I here researched coconut oil extensively until we found the ideal source--one that is certified organic and made from the freshest coconuts. I now highly recommend and offer you what is clearly the premier brand of virgin coconut oil in the United States, Tropical Traditions. If you decide to use another brand of virgin coconut oil, be sure it meets these requirements.

 Reap the Benefits of Physical Activity Get Moving for Better Skin, Better Sleep Do

At least 30 minutes of physical activity today, and schedule some time for a few more active half hours over the next few days. Whether it's taking a class at your gym, going for a power walk with friends, taking a bike ride, or playing Frisbee in the park -- there are lots of options for doing your body good. Choose something you enjoy. There's no point in being miserable.

 Spend Quality Time with Friends or Family Spend time

Today with people you care about. If you love to cook, invite them over for a scrumptious meal. If you don't want to cook, go out. The point is to get together with people who are meaningful in your life -- who make you laugh or inspire you -- and share stories and time.

 Healthy Skin Comes From Within

 Virtually no salve, cream or treatment can do for your skin what a healthy lifestyle can. If you want a smooth, glowing complexion, the type that makes your friends want to know your "secret," there really is no better way. By eating right and protecting your skin from damage, you'll have visibly healthier, younger looking skin, no matter what your age. Plus, these same steps that give you a healthy complexion offer benefits that are much more than just skin deep -- they'll help you get healthier overall, too!
