Astral Skin Care Tips

Astral creams have provided exceptional skin care at an economical rate for many years. With Astral, skincare doesn’t have to be a complicated task, because there are simple little ways to keep your skin healthy.

Drink plenty of water. Drink a minimum of 8 glasses of water a day to provide your body with the hydration necessary for good health and beautiful skin. Water helps to plump up your skin and keep it looking fresh and bright. Watery fruits and vegetables are a welcome addition. Cucumbers, lettuce, apples, and berries all carry plenty of water and will keep your skin clear and clean. Herbal tea and lime water are also plus points if you want clear, blemish free skin.

Eat a balanced diet. When you feed your body the nutrients it needs, your skin will show it. A diet that contains plenty of fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains will have positive effects on the quality of your skin. Some skin-friendly foods are:

  • blueberries
  • tomatoes
  • green tea
  • strawberries
  • fish and seafood
  • brown rice
  • banana
  • orange
  • papaya
  • mango
  • lemon
  • nuts
  • avocados
  • green vegetables

Get daily exercise. Exercise improves your circulation, benefits your overall health, and keeps your skin glowing. Vigorous exercise that makes you sweat clears the skin of impurities and gives it a healthy hue.

Sleep well. Nothing can take the place of a good night’s sleep i you wish to have skin that is clear and vibrant. Getting 7 to 8 hours of sleep each night will help your skin to stay fresh and youthful looking. Shower with warm, not hot, water. Good for the soul, but not necessarily the skin, hot showers tend to dry out and toughen the skin. Cool water on the other hand tightens and tones the skin. Keep the really hot baths for the special occasions and try to keep the water at a reasonable lukewarm temperature for showers on a regular basis.

Go easy on soapy products. While there’s a lot of emphasis in the skincare market on the daily use of scrubs and washes, don’t forget that these detergents carry particles that dry out the skin, leaving a residue that makes it look dull. If you shower more than once a day, try foregoing the soap for one shower and use plain water instead.

Exfoliate the skin with a quality body scrub with fine grains 3 to 4 times a week. Keep the skin bright and cheery by clearing off the dull looking top layer of dead skin cells.

Moisturise daily. Within 10 minutes of stepping out of the shower moisturise your skin to lock in the moisture and protect it from drying out throughout the day. Astral cream contains skin-nourishing ingredients and is perfect as an all-over moisturiser. It will help to keep your skin soft and supple giving it a more refreshed look and feel.
