Your skin is one of the most important things on your body. Your skin protects you from toxins, diseases and keeps your organs safe. It is a natural barrier that also needs as much care as the rest of your body. Read the article below for some great tips on keeping your skin just as healthy as the rest of your body.

If you are a young teenager, then you should watch what makeups you use on your face. Many heavy makeups can cause your skin to be damaged and break out. Ultimately, you need to experiment to find that makeup that fits your personal skin type so that your skin stays healthy and beautiful.
In the winter, you will notice that the air is very cold and dry, making moisturizing integral to your routine. Moisturizing your face reduces the formation of dry skin cells, which can clog your pores and cause cysts and lesions. Additionally, moisturizer improves flexibility of your face, so that you are comfortable during the day.
To help relieve itchy skin that can happen in winter, keep your skin moisturized. Indoor heat can dry your skin, making the itch worse.

If you want baby-soft skin, it is important to exfoliate the skin to better prepare it for moisturizer. You need to apply exfoliator to wet skin and work from your shoulders down. Gently rub in circular motions to remove the dead skin, and pay close attention to your knees, elbows and heels. Rinse everything off, and then apply moisturizer. This should be done once or twice per week.
People with rosacea struggle with the problem of how to leave for work in the morning without a bright red face. The heat of the shower, the heat of the hair dryer, the rushing around, the cold wind on your cheeks at the bus stop - all these things can trigger flushing. Here are some things you can do. End your shower with a cold blast of water (excruciating, but it works). Let your hair air-dry or shower the night before. Wear a scarf to cover everything but your eyes if it's cold out. By identifying and minimizing your triggers, you can help keep your rosacea under control.
If you would like the appearance of smoother, softer feet, then at bedtime, grab a bottle of olive oil from your kitchen cabinet and rub on a generous amount.

It may not be very attractive to wear cotton socks to bed, but you will reap the benefits with softer, smoother feet in the morning.
During dry winter months, it's important to keep your skin as moist as possible. Dry skin is uncomfortable, unattractive and sometimes, painful. Hand lotion is cheap and will keep your hands moist.

There is no single product that contains an ingredient to which no potential user is allergic to.
