Do you spend a lot of time and money on skincare treatments? You are not alone; With everything you invest in your skincare, you need to know that your routine is effective.
The most obvious sign of a good skincare routine is visibly healthy skin. It should be hydrated but not oily. Furthermore, it should not be breaking out. Ditch any product that makes you break out right away. With the right treatments, you should notice a difference very quickly.
However, if your main skincare goal is to slow down aging or diminish the signs of aging, it can take a long time to determine whether you are getting positive results. Instead of waiting, check your routine to see if it meets the fundamental requirements: hydrating your skin, preventing UV damage, and boosting antioxidants.
Researching products and their active ingredients thoroughly is one way to take your skincare routine to the next level. A dermatologist will help you determine your skin’s precise issues and assist you with building an effective skincare routine. By choosing tried-and-true products that target your specific concerns, you can feel confident in your routine.

Whether you are young and have vibrant skin or older and experiencing signs of aging, it is important to invest in the health of your skin. We have put together five important tips that will help you achieve healthier skin that glows. Remember that consistency is key!
Drink More Water
It is essential to hydrate your skin by consuming a sufficient amount of water every day. How much water should you drink? You should set your goal between half an ounce and ounce of water for each pound you weigh, according to WebMD. If you weigh 170 pounds, you should try to consume anywhere from 85 -170 ounces of water a day.
Exfoliate Your Skin
A no-brainer here – Exfoliation removes dry and dead skin cells and improves blood circulation to reveal your healthy and glowing skin. The best way to exfoliate your skin for healthier skin is by using a loofah every day to keep ingrown hair and scaly skin under control. While you’re in the shower, gently scrub bumpy or flakey skin with a circular motion to remove dead skin cells.
Take Short Lukewarm Showers
While taking a long hot shower may feel amazing to help relax your muscles, it can actually do a disservice to your skin. According to Healthline, hot showers can dry out and irritate your skin. Hot water makes it easier for the skin to dry out and worsen conditions like eczema. For healthier skin, take shorter lukewarm showers for happier, healthier skin.
Apply SPF Sunscreen Daily
We all know that UV rays are harmful to our skin. Applying sunscreen every day to your face and any other areas of your skin that are exposed to the sun will protect you from those harmful UV rays. Make sure to find and apply a product with at least SPF 30. At Simplicity Laser, we love using ELTA MD UV CLEAR BROAD-SPECTRUM SPF 46. Applying sunscreen may seem tedious, but the results are huge while on your pursuit for healthier skin.
Keep Your Hands Off Your Face
In general, this is a great rule of thumb, especially in today’s world with the spread of COVD-19 and other germs. Your hands touch many surfaces throughout the day and accumulate dirt and germs. Once you touch your face, you have transferred everything on your hands to your face. Keeping your hands off your face is a lot easier said than done but once you make it a habit your well on your way to obtaining healthier skin.
