Styling through good skin care routine
This is because external and internal factors such as the weather, diet, stress, weight gain or loss among others all contribute to impacting the texture and look of our skin.

Here are some few tips that can help you with regard to caring for your skin.
Prevent sun damage
Sunscreen is the real fountain of youth. Get into the habit of applying sunscreen or a lotion with minimum SPF 15 to 30 for protection daily.
If you don't like taking the time to put on both moisturizer and sunscreen, buy a moisturizer with sunscreen
Cleanse your face gently
Don't clean so much you dry it out. Always remember to moisturize your neck as well.
Often times we leave that aspect out of our skin care routine.
Live a healthy lifestyle
Quit smoking. Few common items age the skin as effectively as tobacco.
Reduce stress when possible and take a vacation if you can. Remember you don’t have to leave town to achieve this.
Send your kids off on vacation to your parents or relatives on vacation if you can and use the time they are gone to rest and revitalize your skin and yourself.
Sleep at least eight hours each night to revitalize your skin.
Eat a healthy diet
A healthy diet can help you look and feel your best. Eat plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean proteins.
The association between diet and acne isn't clear but some research suggests that a diet rich in vitamin C and low in unhealthy fats and processed or refined carbohydrates might promote younger looking skin.
That is most ladies dream!
Water
Make sure you drink a lot of water so your skin won't look dry.
Water rehydrates the fluid we lose through sweating. It also contains vital elements found to be great for the skin.
