The beauty industry, especially the skin care industry, is starting to overload with products – some might feel a little overwhlemed with what is available on the market today. Serums, scrubs, night creams, eye creams, day creams, this-and-that creams … Don’t know about you, but I’m confused!

However, no matter what new ‘miracle cream’ comes into the market, there are 5 skincare tips that will always make your skin look amazing:
1. Sunscreen is a must. It helps prevent skin damage that ages you, and of course skin cancer. The best is to get an SPF 15 or higher.
2. Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize. I wrote more about this in my post, Preventing Signs of Aging Tips, it tells you how to keep every part of your body looking healthy, younger and soft.
3. Remove makeup throughly. Remove all traces of makeup before you sleep. Also, try not to cake on too much foundation that might clog pores and result in blemishes and zits.
4. No smoking! Smoking will dramatically age your skin, amongst other things!
5. Get your beauty sleep. You know what they say … Beauty sleep is just that – you feel fresh, look fresh, and your body is energized and healthy. What can possibly be better for your skin?!
The image above is Clinique’s 3 Step skin care system, which is what I swear by! (Minus the 2nd step though). What are your top skin care tips?

I do agree that sun screen is a must. Ever since I sstarted using sunscreen about a year ago, I’d noticed that my skin has a less “leathery” look and feel to it. Thank you for the reminder!!!
Sunscreen is #1 in my book, as well as all the doctors I’ve been seeing for my skin. That and moisturization. Great post. I will bookmark this, this is a good one to keep for the archives
Thanks for your comments, girls! I will have to be more religious in my sunscreen. It is VERY important but somehow I always seem to forget
I suppose I’ll have to quit smoking now… Good job on the site! Btw is the skin care regime the same for guys (except for step 3)?
Hey Prince Charming!
Thanks for your comment. Yes! If you wear makeup, then include step 3!
