What is your best skin secret?

Question

I think that my skin is almost perfect (in comparison to before) but just not quite to the perfectly smooth and even point. I have reduced the red blotches, sun freckles and lessened my acne scars by about 2/3 using alpha hydroxy acid and moisturizer. Now I just need to get that last 1/3 to go away.

I know we all want skin like this:

but what do YOU do to make it that way naturally?

Answer 1

I use Aveeno daily moisturizing pads and the lotion, it does wonders.

Also, you could use Clean&Clears astringent for a quick cleansing.

Answer 2

Im not saying I have perfect skin, but keeping healthy was really what improved it for me. Eat lots of fruits and drink lots of water. I also reckon clean and clear blackhead stuff works really well for keeping blackheads at bay if you use it night and day.

Hope I helped.

Answer 3

there's no way to make your skin like that girl's skin in the photo. they photoshop everything so the skin looks perfect. (they do that for every model)

my secret is to just wash my face morning and night and drink lots of water. i get a few zits now and then but they're pretty rare.

Answer 4

This is super cheap and really works.  The aspirin mask.  You need a bottle of non-coated aspirins.  They have to be non-coated.  They're about $1 for 100 at Walmart.  Take about 5 or 6 in the palm of your hand and drip water on them to form a paste.  It doesn't take much water before they start to dissolve.  

Put the paste on any problem areas and let it dry, about 10 minutes or when it starts to flake off.  Wash it off with a lukewarm washcloth.  Rinse really well.  I do it at night because it will turn your skin pink but that fades by morning.  You can actually do it all over your face for a cheap exfoliator but only do that once a week.  You can put it on problem areas a couple times a week.

If I have a breakout, I put the paste on at night.  By morning, it is almost gone.  By the following morning, it is barely there and this is even those cystic under the skin kinds.  I use it once a week to prevent breakouts and it's only when I forget that I have breakouts.  The salycic acid is the same thing in many products but it's stronger and works better alone, than with all those other ingredients included.

I read this on some forum years ago and thought something this cheap and simple couldn't work.  I was amazed!  Now I tell all my friends about it.  One had really bad skin and it cleared up in about a week.

Then we all have read it but don't do it.  Drink lots and lots of water!  It really does help your skin.
