If you have watched hours’ worth of “Get unready with me” videos on YouTube and marvelled at the perfect skin of celebrities, this article is for you. Do you know you too can get that radiant glow on your face just by following a few simple steps? Your skin too can look like a million bucks just by taking care of a few simple things. Read on to find out what you can do every day to get super glowy skin without having to rely on makeup.

Exfoliate the right way: Exfoliation is very necessary to remove the outer dead layer of skin and reveal youthful skin from within. Look for exfoliators which have alpha hydroxy acids, such as glycolic acid. These will effectively take off the outer layer of dead cells which have all the dust and dirt trapped in them, to reveal soft and even skin. You can even try at-home peels after consulting a dermatologist.

Listen to your body: Acne on the surface of the skin often means that the body is not able to release toxins efficiently. Acne is your body’s way of communicating to you that something is not right with its functioning. For a permanent cure to your skin worries, you must take note of your body’s internal functioning as well. You can consult a natural health care professional to find a suitable detox program. You can even try some additional steps at home like drinking warm lemon water every day and completely cutting out sugar and alcohol from your diet to eliminate toxins.

Antioxidants: You can apply antioxidants onto your face to minimise the damage caused by environmental pollutants. Two great antioxidants for this purpose are green tea and grape seed extract. They play a big role in helping skin look younger and brighter by protecting the skin (from sun, stress and pollution) as well as boosting the collagen production. You should also make it a habit to use products infused with Vitamin C and E, as these two combined increases the ability of the skin to protect itself from sun damage.

Coconut oil: If your skin is not particularly acne prone, this is a great way to boost your glow. Coconut oil is very effective in rejuvenating damaged skin and restoring natural glow. It has antioxidant properties which help to heal skin cells. It really helps to even out skin texture and tone, giving you the radiance, you had always wanted.
