14 Tips for Achieving Baby Smooth Skin

Good skin is more than just solid genetic luck — it’s a mix of diet, skincare products, and protection techniques that will have people wondering just how you’ve discovered the fountain of youth. Here are the most foolproof tips for getting baby smooth skin, starting today.

1. Drink plenty of water

Hydrating is pretty much the first and biggest step when it comes to improving your skin. Even people with chronic skin conditions will find that drinking water helps flush out toxins and waste, which ultimately lead to blemishes and blackheads. It also makes skin dry and causes a loss of elasticity.

2. Always take off makeup

Even if you just wear a little bit of makeup, it’s very important to remove it before bed. Try to do so with a gentle cleanser that doesn’t strip your skin of natural nutrients and oils that can actually maintain your grow.

3. Use that SPF

The faces of women who wear sunscreen compared to those who haven’t is jaw-dropping. If you leave the house, no matter the season, you should always wear sunscreen. Not only will this protect you from skin cancer, but it can stop premature aging and acne too!

4. Cleanse twice a day

Cleaning your face is as important as taking off makeup. Use a gentle cleanser (only once a day if your skin is very sensitive) and remember to wash, since doing so removes dead cells and build up of oil. Clean with freshly washed hands in circular, outward movements and gently pat dry.

5. Eat healthy

Lots of junk food means pimples and patchy, unhealthy looking skin. Lots of fresh fruits and veggies means natural radiance, and a smooth, even look throughout. If you drink and smoke a lot, your skin will also suffer — smoking stops free flow of oxygen in your blood and can cause you to prematurely age, while alcohol causes swelling and dehydration.
