Are you trying to achieve naturally healthy, glowing skin? Follow these 10 tips from BREVENA to make big differences in your skin with small changes to your routine:

1. Stay away from bar soap. While it may leave you feeling “squeaky clean,” bar soap strips your skin’s natural barrier against bacteria and the elements, leaving you with imbalanced oil production, dehydrated skin, and more. Instead, use a face cleanser that complements your skin type and the season.
   
    
2. Get your beauty sleep. Eight hours of rest each night gives your skin the chance to recharge, repair and produce new skin cells more efficiently, while also keeping dark eye circles and puffiness at bay.
   
    
3. Use eye cream. The area around your eyes is the first thing to potentially show age and stress. The skin around the eyes has a different tissue structure with different concerns than the rest of your face. Eye cream helps with dark circles, puffiness and lines.
   
    
4. Drink water. Even though drinking water does not replace the need for moisturizing cream, it’s still vital for your skin to look and feel its best.
   
    
5. Use SPF. Just because you’re not tanning at the beach does not mean you don’t need sunscreen. It is the little bits of sun exposure every day that add up over the years and can lead to lines, wrinkles and brown spots.
   
    
6. Exfoliate regularly. Look for glycolic acid or lactic acid in your exfoliate if you have dry or combination skin, or salicylic acid if you are prone to breakouts or blackheads.
   
    
7. Get your vitamins. While taking vitamin pills orally helps your internal organs, you should apply antioxidant serum daily to help your skin look younger and prevent damage.
   
    
8. Moisturize. As the seasons change, change your moisturizer. Changes in temperature and humidity affect our skin differently, so we need to adjust our skin care routine appropriately.
   
    
9. Oil up. Anti-inflammatory oils hydrate and plump the lines in your face, and balance dry and oily areas. The proper oils also help prevent breakouts.
   
    
10. See an esthetician for seasonal facials. Esthetician’s can help customize your skincare routine. They can serve as a resource for you to become more educated on healthy skin tips and what ingredients your skin needs to glow.
