Let’s take about skin care. A lot would ask: How to keep our skin healthy and young-looking? And I think almost all dermatologist and skin care experts would agree that proper nutrition and skin care routine is necessary.
I had acne breakout back in 2003, and it took a while for me to get rid of them. My self-confidence was really low. And, even if I am past that breakout, I haven’t faced a full body mirror. I mean, I rarely look in the mirror. When I passed by a boutique with a wall mirror, I somehow felt dismayed. When I got home, I decided to really take a good look at myself in front of the mirror. I was in disbelief that my skin looks older than they are. I look older than I am.
There was even a time when I bumped into a co-parent and after few minutes of talking to her, she exclaimed that she thought we are of the same age. But I am in fact seven years younger than her.
I realized that stress and irresponsibility caused me losing that “beauty”… that “glow”. As it has been said, age is just a number but if its seen in your skin, then it’s a problem!

My skin has aged and even if I have a jar of anti-ageing cream. if I am not responsible enough to use it religiously, then nothing will really happen. Aside from the wrinkles and crow’s feet, there were tiny scars and pimples present. Not to mention the black and white heads that anyone would want to squeeze out. I have browsed for skin care products and tips on how to take care of it too. There are many ways to take care of our skin, I learned.
I have a really oily skin ever since and would always wash my face to get rid of the dirt and oil. I have read that there are 400 millions of bacteria in an oily skin! Bacteria in my face! Oh no!
Skin Care Needs
Nowadays, there are many innovative skin care tools and products we can use to really clean our skin. Innovations like these is really of great help, especially to moms like me. As we age, we really can’t help but feel and see it through the eyes or the skin. Products as such will help us not just take care of our skin but also improve our self confidence if not completely bring it back.

Wow! This is helpful, parehas po tayo as I also deal with oily skin. I also stopped using benzoyl peroxide noong college ako, dangerous pala yan. =(
I never tried using one, I just use skin wash for oily skin and the tried some facial scrub that claims to help stop excessive oil. =)
I’d love to grab this infographic for my beauty blogs. really helpful! 🙂
Yes sis, go ahead! It’s something you can always look back into.
I am aging too and this makes me sad. I will try to exercise this weekend.

Yes, we gotta take care of our skin. The signs of skin aging shows up years later after the sleeping with make up, late nights out and poor diet. Your’re right, lots of water can really help.
I’ve learned a lot from today just visiting blogs!! this is cool! though some of them I’ve read before as well. well eating healthy regular exercise and keep on smiling rather than be angry for something not so important is my advice haha!
So milk has been used for skin care even during the time of cleopatra…i wish i have a tub in here…
actually exfoliating was like a scrapping gently our first layer of skin to undeepen the scars
interesting trivia…i have the oiliest skin so i have the most bacteria 😉
I love the facial toning exercises! Great info graphics! – learned a lot!
Sking is the largest organ of our body and the first barrier against infection.. thanks for posting! =)

i did the facial exercise while reading ur post…thanks!
you also have to drink a lot of water to revitalize your skin. water is essential for overall wellness.
very informative:) The sandpaper is intriguing. Been using that to remove scratches in our car, I never really thought that it would fit my skin too:) LOL! but no, I’m still a bit adamant, maybe it’s just so off and really quite new to my ears:)

while it is true that age is just a number, it would not hurt if we age gracefully. Hehe!
