Everyone dreams of flawless and glowing skin. Having good skin is a great asset and boosts a person’s confidence and self-esteem. Today’s cosmetic industry is flooded with skin care products all claiming to give you a flawless youthful and glowing skin. Many of them can cause a hole in your pocket.

Well, costly is not always the solution when it comes to skin care. What is more important is adopting a good skin care regime combined with a healthy diet and an active lifestyle. Moreover, chemicals in over the counter skin care products can sometimes disturb the delicate pH balance of the skin, so one should be cautious while choosing skin care products.

There are plenty of safe and natural options available to make your skin shine naturally. Let’s look at a few of them:

  1. Water remains on the top of the ‘to-do list’ when it comes to skin care. Drink 8 to 10 glasses of water for glowing skin.

  3. Cleanse your skin with a cleanser and damp cotton every day before washing and apply a light moisturizer. Follow this routine regularly for best results.
