7 Skin Care Tips to Achieve your Best Skin Ever!

So you exfoliate, cleanse, and moisturize your skin to keep it fresh and healthy. But are you sure you’re performing these steps properly? Your beauty routine should work to improve your skin, not to damage it. We found the best ways to nourish your skin with a great skin care regime.  Follow along for your best skin ever!

1.    Avoid Products with Chemical Ingredients

If your skin is sensitive, go for products with natural substances or natural plant extracts. It’s important to avoid products with unnatural ingredients, dyes, or parabens.

2.    Avoid Exfoliating Excessively

Does your skin often dry out, break out, or become red after cleansing your face? These are only a few signs indicating that you over-exfoliate. Exfoliation doesn’t mean using a harsh face scrub or rubbing your skin for hours. That actually causes inflammation, which leads to premature aging of the skin. You simply need a gentle cleanser and a soft washcloth to rub your skin lightly. This will not only cleanse your skin thoroughly, but will help lock in its natural moisture. Our Radical Skincare Hydrating Cleanser has natural calming ingredients, like chamomile, which soothes the skin for a clear and hydrated complexion. For an even deeper clean that’s still gentle on your skin, use our Radical Skincare Age-Defying Exfoliating Pads. These exfoliate away dead skin cells, while also gently removing wrinkles and reducing pore size.

3.    Application Techniques That Will Leave your Skin Looking Youthful

The way you apply your moisturizer has more impact than you may think. Instead of using downward motions while applying night cream or your morning moisturizer, try using a soft, light touch and always in an upward motion. Remember, this is the only skin you have, so be gentle!

4.    Beauty Products with Free Radical Protection

Try using a high potency antioxidant serum that can protect your skin from excessive dryness and free radical attacks. Free Radicals are the #1 cause of aging and cannot be neutralized by just one antioxidant. You need a cocktail of antioxidants to defend against the many different  kinds of free radical.  

5.    Never leave the House without Sunscreen

Exposure to harsh UV rays can take away your skin’s freshness, radiance, and elasticity. Never leave home without applying a SPF 30 or higher. There are many sunscreens out there, but our Radical Skin Perfecting Screen is a three in one blend that not only protects your skin from UV rays, but helps perfect wrinkles and acts as a primer for your favorite makeup. Try our chemical free  Skin Perfecting Screen SPF 30, that’s light enough to allow your skin to breath and potent enough to protect your skin all day long.

6.    Use Alcohol-Free Toner

Alcohol can eliminate moisture from your skin and lead to dead cell buildup. This not only makes your skin dull but can also cause greater oil production and even breakouts. Our toner is alcohol free and will leave your skin feeling fresh and light.

7.    Use Luke-Warm Water when Cleansing

Using extremely hot or cold water in your beauty routine will do more harm than good to your skin.  Always use luke-warm water that is similar to your body temperature, so that your skin is being nourished instead of treated harshly
