Glowy skin is all the rage, but unfortunately winter is pretty rough on skin. Instead of that glowy complexion, you may be suffering with dry, tired-looking skin. And while there are plenty of beauty products out there to help you get that instant glow, there are natural ways, too. Keep reading for 5 ways to get glowing skin naturally.
Stay Hydrated
No matter how many beauty products you use, if you’re not drinking enough water, your skin will be dry. Plan and simple. So, try to cut back on dehydrating beverages like coffee and soft drinks, and fill up on water and tea instead.
Go petroleum-free
Petroleum is an oil by-product, and while it’s not terrible for your skin and lips, there are other naturals oils that can be better. So, consider swapping your chapstick with ones made with other natural oils like beeswax, coconut oil, jojoba oil and cocoa butter.
Try jojoba oil
Every skin type needs the right facial oil. It all depends on how dry or oily your skin is naturally. But a good place to start is jojoba oil. It doesn’t clog pores, and it soothes skin naturally.
Try a natural exfoliate
Exfoliation helps to increase circulation in your skin and it also helps to remove dead skin cells – both of these benefits hep to give you a glowy complexion. So, consider making your own exfoliant with sugar and coconut oil with a drop of your favorite essential oil.
Eat leafy greens and dark berries
Just like it’s important to stay hydrated for glowy skin, it’s also important to increase certain food groups. The nutrients and fiber in dark leafy green vegetables, along with the antioxidants in dark berries help to keep your skin clear and radiant.
