reapply sun screen every 2 to 3 hours. don’t use anything under 30.

use a different exfoliator for your face than you do for your body. your face needs one that’s not as aggressive

you might start to break out more upon using a new, good product. this is normal. let the bad stuff be flushed out and keep using it. This does not include things like moisturizers or tonics!

I know it’s annoying but drink. your. water.

don’t use coconut oil on your face if you’re prone to acne and/or have oily skin.

don’t let the water in the shower hit your face too much, the pressure damages the skin on micro-level - a little is fine, just don‘t let it directly hit your face the whole time you‘re in there.

change your pillow sheet every 3 days (oily skin) to once a week.

stop touching your face for god’s sake.

don’t forget to treat your neck too!

regularly exfoliating your hands will slow down hand aging, too (neck & hands are most telling about actual age when older for most people).

if something doesn’t work, throw it away or gift it to someone else. don’t keep using it. 

start using a serum if you can afford it - it‘s not necessary but very beneficial.

matcha tea contains waaaaay more antioxidants than your average green tea so that one will get you more health benefits, too!

honey & salmon are good for your skin. also limit your dairy intake. 

try to (deep) cleanse your face in the evening if possible to get rid of all the stuff that has collected on your face during the day.
