But maintaining good skin health isn't as straightforward as it may seem. The condition and appearance of our skin stem from a multitude of internal factors, like our genetic make-up, the foods we eat, and how much exercise and rest we get, as well as external factors, like how we treat our skin, and the ways in which we are for it.

Your skin needs water to stay soft and supple. Your body needs water to stay hydrated. Most importantly, drinking enough water keeps skin rejuvenated and refreshed.

Take Skin Supplements.
Collagen is the main protein in your skin and helps it maintain its natural strength and elasticity. When you reach the age of 25, collagen depletion increases, which is why you need to take collagen supplements. Lustre™ Tablets with Marine Hydrolysed collagen, Vitamins A, C and E, plus phyto-nutrients makes skin healthier and younger-looking from within. The ageing-process is slowed down as cell-regeneration is encouraged.

Overzealous washing and scrubbing can dry out the skin and cause it to become irritable. Remove make-up and cleanse your face before going to bed.

Refrain from touching your face with your fingers, which could have picked up germs and other residue from the surfaces they have become into contact with. Wash your hands thoroughly before applying anything to your face. If you have pimples, acne and cold sores, do not touch or pick at them. Popping pimples can aggravate the infection, cause more swelling and redness, and even result in scarring.

Practise good hygiene habits.
