General Skin Care
General skin care – What needs to be done to keep skin healthy and beautiful.
Skin is the most exposed part of our body and it demands special care around the year. Skin care is basically of two types, one is general skin care and second one is special skin care. While general skin care includes daily cleansing, exfoliation, toning, and moisturizing of skin, special skin care includes skin treatment as per the skin type and discrepancy in skin tone.
Special skin care includes application of face pack, skin treatment facial, Botox, treatment, ozone treatment etc. Normally special skin care is done in salons and beauty parlors under special care of beauty experts.
On the other hand, general skin care is the everyday skin care routine and it is to be done on regular individualistic manner. There are many skin care products available off the shelves. You should purchase these products depending on your skin type and of course your budget. However, it is wise to use organic and herbal based products because chemical based skin care products tend to prove harmful in the long run ultimate effect.
Alternatively, there are some home-based product recipes for general skin care which can be easily made at home. These natural products are not only effective in their impact but are pocket friendly as well for the user.
Cleansing is the initial part of general skin care routine. It is an important part of skin care process because it is the initial foundation of skin pampering. Cleansing should be done by soap-free herbal cleanser and depending on the skin type one has to select the cleaner for optimum effect. Cleanser cleans the dirt and oils accumulated on the skin surface. Deep cleansing lotions or gels are the effective methods for the intensive cleansing process because these products clean at the deep level of skin pores and keep all the pores open.
Next to skin cleansing comes the step of exfoliation process in general skin care. This is the process for removal of dead cell layers from the skin surface. Exfoliation process not only removes dead skin cell layers, but also helps to rejuvenate new cell generating process and reveals fresh and blemish-free skin tone. Exfoliation is a sound way to prevent wrinkles and age spotsĀ thus it is to be done, if not regularly, 2-3 times in a week with gentle exfoliating cum scrubbing lotions.
In general skin care schedule, the process of toning is done to tone the skin as well as to close the open pores. Toning can be done by market available toners. Otherwise water, melon juice, orange juice, or cucumber juice on skin works as good natural skin toner.
When the toning process is over, now it is time for skin moisturizing phase. Generally, application of intensive moisturizer can beat the induced dryness of skin, and depending on the skin type the use of moisturizer should be carried on around the year. For example, those who are more exposed to air conditioning impact should use heavy moisturizer around the year to prevent dryness of skin tone. When we use moisturizer, we take care of the outer layer of our skin.
However taking care for outer skin surface does not promote a viable solution for healthy skin from inside. Adequate consumption of water and diluted fruit juice keeps the body cells hydrated. Consumption of water initiates better flushing out of body toxins and promote a beautiful, flawless, and soft skin tone.
Balance diet, regular exercise, stress free life and regular 8-hour sleep are the supportive processes to promote general skin care effect. However it is wise to use sun block cream at the time of outdoor activities.
Consumption of lemon juice and honey in the morning in empty stomach helps to maintain a flawless skin tone. It is one of the best natural diet remedies for healthy and beautiful skin around the year.
