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.

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.
And, now that it’s summer here, it is also best to drink plenty of water and apply skin care products that will protect us from the harmful effects of UV rays. Age is something unavoidable, the best way to deal with it is to live it – cleanse, tone, moisturize, exfoliate, exercise – keep it young & healthy!
