Pretty Is As Pretty Does!
Posted in: Uncategorized
Everyone wants to look younger, but many of us at work have habits that keep us from having great skin. Look around the room at work and see what everybody looks like. Sun damage is the obvious skin killer. Heavy smokers are five times more likely to have wrinkles than non smokers. Also, these people are more susceptible to skin cancers. Therefore, smokers have a slower healing time than non-smokers. Too much drinking can ruin your health and your skin. Alcohol can cause your body to become dehydrated and make your face puffy. Enough sleep, I strive to get at least 6 hours a night. But, according to this study, you should try to get at least 7 and 8 hours of sleep per night. I don’t think very many people actually get enough sleep. When you get enough rest your complexion is brighter and your eyes and not red. The dark circles and bags under the eyes really take a toll on your skin. Stress is the real killer. If you are exposed to a lot of stress in your life, your skin will suffer and you will look pale. Slower oxygen speed to get rid of toxins faster. Diet, look at the person munching on that jelly doughnut sitting next to you. You are what you eat. Eating a healthy diet makes your skin look clear and healthy. After reading this article, I realized that most of us don’t take care of ourselves. When you are 18 and in college you think that you can rest later. Why miss anything? When you are in your 30’s, you realize that you should have taken better care of yourself. Men are now using “Botox” and other products to retain their youth. Ironic ? You have heard the saying, “I can sleep when I am dead.”
