5 Ways to Keep Your Skin Glowing Between Facials
May 03, 2024
We all strive to maintain a beautiful, youthful complexion, but that can often be a challenge in today's busy world. Stress, pollution, and a diet on the run can often lead to premature aging and other skin concerns. One powerful skin rejuvenation tool is the facial. Regular facials clean away dirt and bacteria while removing dead skin cells and stimulating collagen production to help keep dull skin and fine lines and wrinkles at bay. But what about in between your scheduled facials? What can you do to keep your skin glowing?
1. Establish a Skin Care Routine
Whether you schedule facials every month or every other week, how you care for your skin in between facials is just as important. During your first facial visit, your esthetician at Alora will work with you to determine a facial schedule that will help meet your facial goals, while also recommending skincare products that can help you maintain your glow in between facial treatments.
2. Always Remove Your Makeup
Whether you had a full day of work or went out on the town with friends and all you want to do is jump into bed for some much-needed sleep, you must take the time to remove your makeup before tucking yourself in. When you go to bed with your makeup still on, it works its way into your pores, leading to breakouts or other skin concerns. Your nightly skincare routine should always begin with taking off the day and revealing fresh, clean skin.
3. Stay Hydrated
Hydrated skin is healthy skin and you must maintain good hydration both inside and outside. Keeping your body hydrated not only helps your overall health but helps keep your skin glowing. Many people recommend at least half a gallon of water intake per day, but you may need more depending on your weight and activity level. Keeping your skin hydrated doesn’t stop there. It is also important to wash your skin with cool to lukewarm water (hot water dries the skin out) and apply moisturizer lotions or creams regularly. Your facial esthetician will often recommend the best moisturizers for your skin type.
4. Eat a Healthy Diet
Eating a well-balanced diet is not only good for your overall health, but it also plays a role in how your skin looks. For example, if you eat greasy junk food, you are likely to experience breakouts or notice a dull skin appearance. A diet packed with antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables, along with fiber and healthy fats will help keep your skin looking great!
5. Never Forget the Sunscreen
While an evening skincare routine is essential to remove makeup and keep your skin hydrated, a morning routine that includes
sunscreen
is just as important. Even on one of our many cloudy days, sunscreen is essential. Not only does it help prevent sunburn and reduce the risk of skin cancer, but regular sunscreen use helps reduce premature aging, promotes an even complexion, and keeps your skin healthy.
