Five Minutes to Younger Looking Skin

Five minutes a day is all it takes to have younger, healthier skin. Here are five industry secrets that really work without adding any time to your daily routine.

Would you like to take ten years of your face in just five minutes? These ten simple beauty tips will achieve that goal on a daily basis while saving you tons of application time.

  1. Exfoliate

    As skin dries, skin cells die and adhere to newer healthier skin. By using a mask once a week, you remove dead skin cells and expose the younger skin beneath.

    Timesaving Tip

    Put a facial mask, netted body sponge, and liquid soap in your shower. Use it every few days to exfoliate dead skin while also reducing soap scum residue in your shower.
  2. Moisturize

    Blend moisturizer on the back of one hand and foundation on the back of both. Instantly, the small wrinkles on the back of the moisturized hand will fade while remaining prominent on the other. By simply using moisturizer before foundation, the moisturizer fills wrinkles making you look ten years younger instantly.

    Timesaving Tip

    Use a sponge to apply your foundation. It will keep your hands clean, and blend flawlessly at the same time.
  3. Protect

    Although tanning is fun, UV exposure is one of the most detrimental aging components because it simultaneously dries and damages skin cells. Using sunblock with SPF 15 allows you to still gain color while protecting yourself from premature aging.

    Timesaving Tip

    Use a foundation or facial moisturizer with sunblock.
  4. Humidify

    In the winter months, the air becomes dry, as does your skin. By using a humidifier during the winter, you can reverse the moisture content to the air and your skin.

    Timesaving Tip

    Use the humidifier at night to return moisture to your skin.
  5. Choose the Right Products

    By using UN-scented products with Vitamins C & E, you are going a long way in preventing and reversing the aging process. Scented products usually contain alcohol, which dries the skin and speeds aging. Vitamins C & E are both antioxidants that reduce cell-damaging “free radicals,” preserving skin cells and allowing them to grow and reproduce. By simply choosing unscented products with Vitamins E & C, you encourage healthy skin growth and reverse the aging process.

    Timesaving Tip

    Take vitamin E & C tablets daily to reverse aging from the inside out.

Each time you use these tips, your skin will give the illusion of healthy vibrancy instantly. Follow these tips on a daily basis and within 14 to 30 days (depending on the products,) you will see smoother, healthier, younger looking skin.
