We all want good skin but honestly I don't believe there's just one secret formula. Just what works for each individual, IMO. But I am happy to share some things that have worked for me and how I've improved my skin texture. We all want that smooth, healthy glow... I know, me too! There are a few things that work for my skin, I've tried many brands, masks and moisturizers and always will because I simply love skincare products but the one thing that has worked the fastest for me [when in desperate need] is using homemade treatments. But remember, everything depends on your areas of concern, skin texture and of course, genetics.
Here are some easy ways to improve your skin texture instantly:
1. Facial oils are my best friend. I use them mostly at night because I have combination skin and my T-zone tends to get oily naturally but now a days we have amazing oils that don't over grease you anyway. These are some brands I use: Pixi Rose Oil, La Mer Face Oil and a Vitamin E Oil. Not all at the same time, just depends on the day I am having.
2. Make a brown sugar scrub at home! Add honey + coconut oil... I shared my mom's recipe HERE.
3. Greek yogurt adds so much moisture. Check out THIS Pinterest idea for details.
4. Water, water, water! I am guilty of forgetting to top my water intake daily but I do drink water every single day, at least 3 bottles a day. Water is your bestie... hello hydration!
5. Sheet masks are life... easy peasy, even right before bed, no rinsing needed. I love the Yes To brand, which is sold almost everywhere. I use the coconut one;)
If you follow me on IG, you know that my skin was not it's usual self last week. It felt extra dry - even for winter, so dull and I was having breakouts per say... they weren't actual zits but more like little bumps. But this has never happened to me so I did what I do best in times of beauty emergencies and clicked on my Pinterest app. Guuurl, I found the best Greek Yogurt Face Mask, you can use different ingredients for different concerns so I headed to my local Target to get some plain greek yogurt and avocados. Added olive oil, honey and voila! I did it twice over the weekend and I can see a big difference instantly. En serio! Here's the little tut video I posted on my IG.
