Beauty Sleep

Most of us need 7 to 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep to function well. We all need our beauty sleep and a well rested night rewards our faces with a glowing brightness. However, at some point, we all do get dark circles and blemishes due to tiredness and lack of enough sleep. The  ABOTANIQ Dark Spot Diminisher is a great product that helps even skin tone by direct application on the problem areas. 

Water is our friend

I’m sure we’ve all heard this before. There is a reason for the saying, water is life. Drinking lots of water, on average, 2 liters per day ensures the body remains hydrated and keeps the face looking and feeling supple. Water also helps to flush out harmful toxins from our body.

Sun Exposure

Too much sunlight can wreak havoc on our delicate skin. Avoid being outdoors during the hottest hours of the day, 11-3pm, and always wear skin screen with UV light protection. Over- exposure leads to damaged skin and an increase in wrinkles.

Eat more fruits and vegetables

Fresh fruits and vegetables contain anti-oxidants that help the body naturally fight the ageing process. Trade in the lunchtime sandwich for a salad and keep some fruits such as blueberries or grapes at your desk that you can keep munching on during the day. Include more vegetables such as Spinach in your diet. Spinach is an excellent source of iron, which helps transport oxygen efficiently keeping your skin healthy. Avocado is also a great source of Vitamin E and B complex vitamins that repair and protect skin from free radical damage.

Cleanse, Tone, and Moisturize

These are the three laws in the makeup world. Always cleanse, tone and moisturize your skin every day. Remove makeup and clean your face every night, use under eye cream to protect the most delicate skin that is under your eyes. For those days you have dark circles, recommended to try ABOTANIQ Dark Spot Diminisher to conceal imperfections and keep you looking youthful.
