It is tempting to begin and end the conversation on how to achieve healthy, glowing skin by saying “establish a good skincare and health routine”, but of course there are a great many factors that must be considered for this to come to pass, so let's waste no time delving into some of the most important tips for building a skincare routine that will make healthy, glowing skin a reality for you.

Tip 1 – Choose the right exfoliator

Exfoliating on a regular basis ensures that you remove any dirt and grime or dead skin that has a dulling effect, clearing up congestion and revealing the bright, smooth natural surface of your skin. This superb facial exfoliator does an amazing job thanks to its key active ingredient of highly concentrated AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acid). The role it plays is to smoothen fine lines, fade age spots and other discolourations, all of which promotes healthy looking skin with a natural glow.

Tip 2 – Find a good aesthetician for a regular facial

There's little point looking a million dollars if you don't feel a million dollars too. A high quality facial can help with both, so use your contacts, friends or carry out some online research to find an aesthetician in your local area with a reputation as healthy and glowing as you'd like your face to be. A regular bit of pampering like this can also do wonders for your mental health.

Tip 3 – Don't forget to exercise and eat well

Products are great, but your skin health will certainly suffer if you neglect your exercise routine and have an unhealthy diet. Vitamin C is especially important when it comes to skin health, while ensuring you eat enough foods containing Omega-3 is also key. Omega-3 fatty acids help regulate the skin's production of oil, leading to more balanced hydration, fewer breakouts and reducing the signs of ageing. Oily fish is a great source, while walnuts provide a great alternative for nut-lovers and vegans or vegetarians. Exercise is equally important. You only need look at the complexions of top Olympic athletes to see what regular exercise can do for the skin.

Tip 4 – Choose a quality cleanser

Most of us live lives in which our faces are subjected to all manner of daily pollutants, especially through any form of daily commute. A morning and evening cleanse with a great foaming cleanser will make the world of difference. Make sure the cleanser (and any products you choose) match your skin type.

Tip 5 – Make moisturising a ritual

The importance of moisturising when it comes to promoting healthy, glowing skin cannot be overstated. When choosing a moisturiser for you, make sure you opt for something that offers all-day protection and suits your skin type. The most common skin type is definitely combination, so it makes sense to recommend a moisturiser that suits this skin type. The Biodroga MD CLEAR + 24h Care for impure combination skin comes in the form of a gel that serves to reduce oily patches on the T zone while providing drier areas such as cheeks with oil and moisture. They also do great moisturisers for those with dry skin.
