When I was younger, I was one of those girls with
"problem skin". As a result, even though I was
considered attractive, even though my mother assured
me every day that eventually I would grow out of it,
even though I was smart at school, none of that
mattered.  Being smart wasn't the problem when I
looked in the mirror at my zits. When you have beautiful
skin, your skin is only  1%  of what makes you "you".  
But when you have problems with your face, you feel
like it's 100% of your identity.  You wake up and you go
to bed with the same questions.  How do I get good skin?
How do I clear my face up, finally? Is there any
effective natural home routine that will give me clear
skin?

Good skin comes from good nutrition and good daily
grooming routines. Here are the Top Tips from my
personal experience and research for getting great skin.





















1.  Steam.  Skin is made up of hundreds of thousands of
pores. Bacteria enters your face through a pore. There,
it settles, irritates the pore, and causes an infection. The
infection may get mixed with oil from the skin, and is
then expressed on the surface of your skin as a big red
and white pimple.

Steam is the first step in opening your pores. Get a good
at home steam machine or use a pot of hot water. You
can then put the pot on the floor, put a towel over your
head and bend over the pot for at good steaming of your
face.  Be careful of course, not to burn yourself.
Alternatively, you can just take a nice warm bubble bath
to open up your pores safely.

If you ever get a professional facial, you know that it
begins with a gentle steaming of your face. That's the
reason. To open your pores.

2. Kill the Bacteria. Use a
home remedy to kill acne
bacteria or buy a professional product with some form of
acid to kill the bacteria at the bottom of the pores, if you
have acne.

3. Mask. Use an
appropriate mask to control your skin.
If your skin is oily, use a clay mask. If it's dry, use a
moisturizing mask.

4. Eat for good skin.  The same
foods which support
great hair also support great skin. Eat plenty of
vegetables, fish and nuts. Avoid red meat or keep it to a
minimum. Red meat clogs your skin pores. In fact, all
saturated fat is horrible for your skin. So avoid red
meat, butter, margarine, all of it.  Drink 8 glasses of
water a day.
