As a beauty influencer, she is constantly asked for her best beauty tips. After years of experimentation and research, she has curated a list of five beauty tips that she swears by. These tips are easy to follow, affordable, and effective. So, without further ado, here are her top five beauty tips:
- Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate!
We all know that drinking water is essential for our overall health, but it is also essential for our skin. Water helps to flush out toxins, which can cause breakouts, and keeps our skin looking plump and hydrated. Aim to drink at least 8 glasses of water a day, and if you’re struggling to drink plain water, try adding some lemon or cucumber for added flavor.
- Always use sunscreen
Sunscreen is a non-negotiable when it comes to skincare. It protects our skin from harmful UV rays, prevents premature aging, and reduces the risk of skin cancer. Make sure to apply sunscreen every day, even on cloudy days. Look for a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30.
- Double cleanse
Double cleansing is a game-changer when it comes to removing makeup and impurities from your skin. The first cleanse removes makeup, dirt, and oil, while the second cleanse cleanses the skin more deeply. Use an oil-based cleanser for the first cleanse, and a water-based cleanser for the second cleanse. Your skin will thank you for it!
- Use a facial roller
Facial rollers are great for reducing puffiness and promoting lymphatic drainage. They are also perfect for applying serums and moisturizers. Use a facial roller every morning to depuff and contour your face. I recommend keeping your facial roller in the fridge for an added cooling effect.
- Get enough sleep
Getting enough sleep is essential for our overall health and well-being, but it also plays a significant role in our skin health. During sleep, our body repairs and regenerates itself, which means our skin repairs and regenerates too. Aim to get at least 7-8 hours of sleep every night, and if you’re struggling to fall asleep, try some relaxation techniques like deep breathing or meditation.
There you have it, her top five beauty tips. I hope these tips will help you achieve healthy, glowing skin. Remember, beauty starts from within, so take care of your body, mind, and skin, and you will radiate beauty inside and out.
