Keeping your skin healthy is an important part of overall health and wellness. In fact, your skin is the largest organ in your body and plays a key role in protecting you from bacteria, viruses, and other environmental factors. Taking good care of your skin can help promote overall health. Here are some tips on how to do just that!
Regular Exfoliation
Exfoliating your skin helps to remove dead skin cells and other impurities from the surface of the skin. Regular exfoliation also helps to keep your pores clear and unclogged, which can help prevent breakouts. This can be done with a gentle scrub or with an exfoliating cleanser that contains natural ingredients like jojoba beads or walnut shells. Be sure not to overdo it—exfoliating twice a week should be enough for most people.
Moisturize Often
Keeping your skin moisturized is key for keeping it soft and healthy-looking. Moisturizing helps protect the outer layer of the skin from drying out and keeps it looking youthful and radiant. Look for moisturizers that contain natural ingredients like shea butter, jojoba oil, rosehip oil, or aloe vera gel—these will help nourish the skin without irritating it. It’s also important to choose a moisturizer that is right for your particular skin type (i.e., dry, oily, combination).

Maintain A Healthy Diet
What you eat has a direct impact on the health of your skin. Eating a balanced diet full of fresh fruits and vegetables will give you all the vitamins and minerals you need to promote healthy-looking skin. Eating foods high in antioxidants such as berries, dark leafy greens, avocados, beans, nuts, whole grains, fish, citrus fruits are especially beneficial for maintaining glowing complexion! Avoiding processed foods and refined sugars will also help keep acne at bay by regulating hormones that cause breakout.
Taking good care of your skin is essential for promoting overall health—your skin is after all your largest organ! Regular exfoliation helps keep pores clear while moisturizing often keeps the outer layer of the skin hydrated and protected from drying out too quickly.
And finally, eating nutrient-rich foods full of antioxidants provide all the vitamins and minerals needed for maintaining healthy-looking complexion. With these simple steps in mind women over 40 can feel confident knowing they're taking great care of their largest organ - their own beautiful Skin!
