Five Easy Steps to Younger Looking Skin

• Water.  While we all know that we should drink plenty of water, did you know that if you don’t have enough minerals, even when drinking eight glasses of  water you can still be dehydrated?
• Simple solution: add a few grains of sea salt or mineralized salt to your next glass of water. Do this once a day until you are fully hydrated again. What does “fully hydrated” look like? Look at the pad of skin between your thumb and first finger, if the skin is wrinkled you’re dehydrated.
• Sleep.  We all need it and few of us get enough.  Most people have periods of their lives where they struggle to fall or stay asleep.
• Simple solution: Have a Pre-sleep ritual.  Turn off the TV and read. Drink warm de-caf beverages in the winter, or cool sips of water in summer. A warm bath helps you unwind.  Write down whatever it is you need to remember, then put it out of your mind.  Finally, a list of everything you are grateful for at this moment.
• Sunscreen. We all know we need to use it. What you may not know is that it breaks down after several hours.  Also, most people don’t use enough product -you need one teaspoon  just for your face, neck, and décolleté.
• Simple solution: Measure the amount the first few times you apply sunscreen.  After a few times you should be able to “eye ball” the correct amount.
• Exfoliation.  What is it and when do you do it?  This is the process of removing dead skin.  As we age we don’t shed our dead skin as quickly as we did in our youth. But, you can also do it too roughly or too often and cause irritation and redness.  Your method or product needs to be matched to your skin type.  Sensitive skin types and Rosacea need special methodology with little to no friction. 
• Simple solution: Get professional recommendations that match the product to your skin type.  Most people don’t radically change skin types over their lives so once you know your skin type because your skin was professionally analyzed you should be able to safely exfoliate at home.
• Facial Expressions.  Do you think with your eyebrows in the frowning position? 
• Simple solution: Smile! You use more muscles frowning, than you do smiling! A happy face looks so much younger than an angry, grouchy face.
