How to maintain a natural facial and skin glow

The rate at which ladies invest in beauty products these days is quite alarming. Every girl you meet out there has a perfectly made up face with neat eyebrows and hideous spots nicely concealed.

Beauty products are meant to accentuate your strong features and make you look smashing. But to my unbelief, it’s for total transformation of individuals nowadays.

This could be seen with the ‘before and after’ pictures of the ladies. Of course, it’s quite understandable that the before and after pictures are meant to show the neatness of the individual in having herself made up but at the same time, it looks ridiculous and one can’t help but wonder if it was actually the same lady that was snapped and put under the ‘after’ tag.

It has become a major point of concern nowadays as men break off engagements and even deny being married to certain ladies when they are unable to recognise the women without them having their face tightly made up.

Below are tips that could be useful in maintaining a natural facial and skin glow:

• Keep your face and skin clean and free of dirt by washing up at least twice daily to remove extra oil and impurities from skin surface.
• Facial scrubs and cleansers could be used from time to time to treat the face. Facials help to improve severely dehydrated skin with rich emollient nourishing mask.
• The use of harsh creams should be stopped. Most of these creams have ingredients that have long term effect on the skin.
• During a breakout of acne or pimples, avoid using foundation or any other beauty products. But if you must, wash it off at the end of the day. Oil free cosmetics should be used during this period.
• Exfoliating the skin with a gentle scrub gives the skin a smoother surface.
• Healthy diets help give the skin and the face a glow. Fruits and vegetables could be included in one’s diet.
• Apply moisturizers that reduce dryness or peeling of the skin. Popping of pimples with the hands often results in black spots and a spread of the bacteria to another surface of the skin.
• The use of well formulated sunscreen should be implored from time to time.
• No matter how tired one is, it is important that one rubs off every make up from the face by washing with water or cleansing with wipes.
