The Best Skin Care Products & Tips

It may be true that “beauty is only skin deep”, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t make a valiant effort to create beautiful, healthy skin.

Skin is the largest organ of the human body, offering us protection from the environment. That said, it’s our responsibility to properly care for this vital organ. Not only to ensure it works efficiently (by releasing toxins through sweat and protecting us from diseases), but also to make sure it looks good (as it’s the first thing people notice when they greet us).

Some skin disorders are hereditary, and therefore cannot be avoided, just treated (by Dermatologists). But, other skin problems can be diverted with proper prevention and maintenance.

The most common causes of skin damage are:

• Sun Exposure
• Lack of Sleep
• Poor Diets and Lack of Nutrients
• Excessive Alcohol
• Lack of Moisture
• Free Radicals
• Mental and Emotional Stress
• Toxins and Pollutants

Each of the above causes can be addressed, which will significantly improve the overall look and appearance of your skin, since skin is a reflection of the internal and external state of your well-being. To help you in your quest for beautiful skin, below are the 2012 ‘Best of Beauty’ award-winning skin care products from Allure Magazine.
