8 Ways to Improve Your Skin Health
Your skin is your body’s largest organ, so it’s little wonder that positive skin health is something we all strive for. Here are eight easy ways to improve your skin health.
Drink Water
You’ve heard this before, with good reason. Drinking a minimum of two litres of water each day is key crucial for maintaining hydration, which not only assists our body in doing so much, but also works to improve skin elasticity and appearance.
SPF, Every Single Day
Sunscreen is paramount, but in Australia? It’s imperative. Wearing a SPF 50+ every day is something that everyone – regardless of skin type – should be doing, even on the overcast days. And don’t forget to reapply throughout the day.
We all know that sun damage can a major contributor to premature skin ageing, and wearing SPF 50+ every day is your best bet to combat this.
Be Consistent with Skincare
A consistent skincare routine can go a long way. It’s important to use products that are designed for your skin type and suited to tackle your concerns, however it’s just as important to use these products consistently.
We all have a night here or there when we might forget a certain step, or reach for the most convenient option, but as much as possible, stick with the daily routine you follow both morning and night.

Eat a Balanced Diet
A balanced, nutrient-rich diet is always a good idea for a multitude of health benefits. In particular, there are so many foods that skin really loves, including avocados for essential fats and vitamin E, berries for antioxidants and vitamin C, as well as nuts and seeds for omega-3 fats, vitamin E and zinc.
Eight Hours of Sleep
During sleep, our bodies are busy at work repairing and regenerating skin cells, and producing collagen. These three things ensure our skin looks fresh and revived, as well as assisting in keeping skin firm and elastic.
Stress Less
We know this is easier said than done, but stress really can upset your skin. Where possible, try to balance the everyday stresses of life with a moment of meditation, breath work or yoga.
Don’t Do Your Skin a Disservice
