How to Get Smoother Skin Naturally
If you want smoother, more radiant, and youthful-looking skin this season, make a few tweaks to your daily skin care regimen and you'll start to see some positive changes within a week. You need to exfoliate your skin regularly but it can be easy to overdo it. Choosing the right scrubs and exfoliating tools will help you maintain soft and smooth skin without causing damage or triggering breakouts. Enhance your natural beauty by using products that contain natural ingredients - from scrubs and cleansers, to masks and toners, you can get smooth, beautiful-looking skin with products infused with vitamins and natural extracts.
Use these tips to get smoother skin, naturally:
#1: Pick out a good scrub for the season. Use a face scrub that contains naturally-derived ingredients so you aren't clogging your pores or damaging your skin during the exfoliation process. Willowbark is a natural source of salicylic acid which is known to detoxify the pores. It's one of the key ingredients in the Neutrogena Naturals Purifying Pore Scrub. This scrub is very gentle but effective for all skin types and works by buffing away dead skin cells sitting on the skin's surface. Use it regularly to give your complexion a boost.
#2: Use the right tools. Whether you choose to use a scrub or just want to use a detoxifying cleanser on a regular basis, make sure you're using the right tools. A natural facial buffing sponge can be great for buffing down skin without being too aggressive. Just make sure you clean out this sponge thoroughly after each use or it will become a hotbed for bacteria. You could also use a dry washcloth or dry brush to gently buff away skin cells before you use any type of cleanser, mask, or light scrub. Dry scrubbing the skin helps to boost circulation and will also make your skin look smooth.
#3: Get into the exfoliating habit. I usually adjust my skincare regimen by season because my skin reacts differently to the Florida climate each season. The cooler temperatures of winter and very hot, humid days the rest of the year do take their toll on my skin by either drying it out or triggering breakouts. Exfoliating at least once per week during the warmer months and up to twice per week during the winter months can help to keep glowing all season long. Get yourself into a consistent routine using products made with naturally-derived ingredients and your skin will stay smooth and look radiant.
