Remove your makeup before you go to bed. Your body and skin use the time you're asleep to rejuvenate and repair. By sleeping with your makeup on, you are suffocating your skin and not allowing it any oxygen to breathe, and therefore repair itself. Take the time that you need to remove your makeup before heading to bed. Gently exfoliate your skin with a natural bristle brush before bathing for great looking skin. This clears away skin cells past their prime to reveal smoother skin, increases circulation, and helps decrease inflammation caused by pimples. Banishing toxins throughout your body goes a long way in making your skin appear youthful and evenly toned. An excellent way to soothe your skin after a long week is to apply a honey mask. When honey is applied to the skin, it can treat redness and give the skin a healthy glow. Such masks boost your general appearance, and weekly use can lessen your blemishes as well.
