I think today I just want to be in touch with my ladies sense.... Well there is nothing new actually but maybe can come up as a reminder to all of you ladies. Finding out this article in Shine website (it was in Yahoo). About a few things that ruined our skin
Because since lately I realized that my skin become kind of dull and maybe look a little old(?). And I have spending mostly of time (and money!) to get a little glow and radiant of my skin. But after reading this article I just realized that I might giving too much thought over what was outside my skin, not inside.
So lets share this
common knowledge of a things that ruined our skin...
5 things that can ruin your skin (a friendly reminder)
1. Unprotected sun exposureIf we could be tan for the rest of our lives, we SO would, but tanning causes premature aging, fine lines, and unpleasant big brown splotches and freckles all over your skin (also: skin cancer. Scary!). This is why we should all be using moisturizers with SPF 30--and don't forget to slather it on your neck and hands, as well. They're two places with delicate skin that's prone to aging young.
2. SmokingBetween the drying out and the toxins and the oxygen-zapping and the above-the-lip, pucker-inhale wrinkles, smoking does absolutely nothing good for your skin and really just makes you look old and gray-faced before your time.
3. BoozeOoh. I bet you liked those four Mojitos last night, but you know what? Your skin hated them. Alcohol dehydrates the skin, it can cause tiny red veins to rupture on your visage, and make you look as blotchy and flushed as Nick Nolte in a mugshot. To combat this: Down a glass a water between spirits, and limit consumption to just a couple of booze-y beverages per night.
4. SugarDear chocoholics, cookie monsters, and anyone who regularly polishes off a pint of Chunky Monkey: Sugar messes with your skin's collagen; it can lessen its repair function and speed up elasticity loss, leaving your face dull and saggy. Curb sweet tooth cravings by turning to natural sugars like those found in fruit or, even better, snack on a handful of almonds which are packed with both antioxidants (good for skin!) and protein.
5. DehydrationYou know the rule: You need 8 to 10, 8-ounce glasses of water a day. As annoying as this is, it's just enough to keep your organs flushed and functioning and your skin hydrated from within. The second part of the hydration-equation is experimenting with skincare regimens until you find the right one for your budget and skin type. Essentially all you need is a mild cleanser, a good day moisturizer with SPF and slightly thicker night cream that's packed with vitamins and will give you skin-healing benefits while you sleep.

http://shine.yahoo.com/channel/beauty/Totally a simple things that can ruin our skin, ladies. As for me, the most 'crime' that I done for my skin is sun exposure, the sugary sweet encounter, and dehydrating. And i think I need to get a little change over my habit of eating much sugar, exposing myself too much to mr sunshine and also to keep myself hydrate all the time ( but don't be too much, excessive drinking water can lead you to death. Believe it!).
And a few more to add, like remove the makeup to let the skin breathe and cleanse the face. So let's all together doing a little deed for our skin for the benefits of tomorrow.
Hmm... didn't you wonder? Why a simple advice can give us a big benefit than having a grand professional help? Leave it to you to think about it.
