5 tricks for perfect skin

How to achieve perfect skin? Are there gestures, more or less daily, that help us keep it smooth, polished, plump, and free of impurities? The answer is yes! In this article, we reveal some simple tricks that will help you significantly improve your skin or simply keep it... perfect!

Sunscreen SPF 30 when necessary

"Even if the sun is not visible, it doesn't mean it isn't there. Ultraviolet rays can be potentially harmful to the skin, which is why whenever you find yourself spending time outside, outdoors, you should wear protection from these rays. There are now many creams on the market that have an SPF factor capable of providing protection from direct or indirect rays."

In the absence of a product of this kind, the risk is that of premature skin aging and the appearance of spots that then require great effort to be eliminated.

However, be careful: wearing an UVA-UVB filter when spending the day indoors is of no use. We resort to this type of product when we spend hours outdoors where the risk of exposure to rays is high.

Don't forget exfoliation 

Exfoliation consists of the removal of dead cells found on the outermost layer of our skin. This type of treatment allows the "younger" layer of skin to be revealed. From the very first time the scrub is performed, an improvement in skin brightness and texture can be noticed; the skin will immediately appear smoother and more refined to the eye and touch; any small spots or skin discolorations will appear diminished, and the complexion will look younger and fresher.  

This "cleaning" is therefore a real boon for the skin, and for this reason, it should be done about once a week, with differences based on the type of exfoliation we are going to perform (chemical or mechanical).

Moisturize

Water is synonymous with hydration. However, the water that makes up our skin tends to evaporate due to environmental factors. If our skin loses water, it consequently also loses its elasticity, softness, and firmness. For this reason, it is necessary to apply a product daily that ensures the supply of water needed for our skin to remain plump.

But not only that, moisturizing creams also ensure the creation of a sort of barrier that, in addition to preventing water from evaporating easily, protects it from potentially harmful external factors such as smog, cold, or heat.

If the skin is not adequately hydrated, it is also more prone to "breaks" and therefore to the formation of fine lines and various signs of loss of elasticity. For this reason, external hydration through creams is essential to keep the epidermis intact.

Thorough cleansing 

Having perfect skin means, first of all, having skin free of impurities. However, this is only possible through proper daily cleansing.

A type of cleansing that has recently been gaining a lot of credit from those who try it is called double cleansing. The latter consists of using two types of products in this phase of skincare: one oil-based and one foaming. The first type of product is used to dissolve makeup and capture the impurities that have accumulated on our skin throughout the day (smog, sweat, and so on); the second foaming product, on the other hand, serves to remove the oils that were useful for capturing impurities but must in turn be eliminated to avoid the risk of settling and causing new impurities.

Regardless of the technique you prefer to use to cleanse your skin, what is important is to pay adequate attention to this step to perform a thorough daily cleaning. This type of activity is indeed the foundation for always perfect skin.

Balanced diet

As mentioned earlier, water is truly essential for skin hydration. Its intake should not come only from the outside but also, and above all, from the inside. Drinking at least 1.5 liters of water a day is crucial for our entire body and also for our skin.

Furthermore, we must also pay attention to the foods we eat: a balanced diet will ensure that we do not lack any nutrients, and our skin will thank us as well.

Among the foods that help keep the skin perfect are salmon, red fruits, eggs, and dried fruit.
