It goes without saying that bright, healthy skin is something that we all want, where it gets a little tricky is when we start looking deeper into what it takes to actually achieve healthy skin. As the New Year has just started, the team at Ona would like to challenge you to creating New Year’s resolutions to help you achieve the skin that you’ve always wanted. While some of your resolutions will be difficult to maintain, like saving up for that new house or volunteering more than twice a month, you’d be surprised just how easy it is to commit to some of the things that will get you the skin you’ve been craving.
Drink More Water
Water makes up a good portion of how great your skin looks, and this is easily one of the easiest resolutions that you can make for this new year. Aside from providing you with healthier looking skin, this resolution will keep you hydrated and flush your body of toxins, which is actually the reason that it allows for your skin to look so great! On top of that, you will gain elasticity to your skin, which is what brings that younger glow that everyone wants. Make a resolution to remain hydrated and stay on top of the water levels that you should be drinking.
Update Your Skincare Products
When you’re working on having beautiful skin, you are desperate to find a product that works for you. In doing so, you wind up buying more products than you need, most of which do more damage than good to your skin. After a while, you wind up with a huge stash of products that leave you with damaged skin and, usually, a cabinet full of useless products. If your resolution is to finally have the skin you’ve always wanted, start by going through your skin care products and tossing any products that have done more harm than good to your skin. This is a good time to stick with the saying “out with the old, in with the new”. Invest in a product that’s shown results, even if it isn’t the cheapest on the market. You’ll be glad you did once your skin is receiving all of the nutrients and care that it needs to stay healthy.
We’re only just getting started on the resolutions that you can make to maintain healthy skin this year. Make sure to check out blog out in the coming weeks that will have even more, quick and easy ways to obtain the healthy skin you’ve been craving, given right from our team of skin care professionals here at Ona.
Wear Sunscreen
Sunscreen is one of those things that was never cool when we were young, but what became even less cool as we grew up was cancer and sun spots. If you’re looking to care for your skin long term, meaning that you’d love to have healthy and clean looking skin down the road, sunscreen is a must. Even when you are thinking that you’re going to be out for only a short amount of time, putting some on your face is a great idea. There are even some products that you can check out that moisturize while protecting your sun. These are fantastic products to invest in.
Wash Your Makeup Brushes
This is one of those resolutions that we’re all guilty of breaking, and it’s because it’s a hard thing to remain consistent with if you aren’t sticking to it throughout the year. While it may be a bit more difficult to remind yourself to sit down and wash your makeup brushes every once other week or so, this is one of the resolutions that you can make that will trump many of the advanced skin care techniques simply by providing your face with clean tools for applying makeup. Once you get into the groove of doing it, you’ll see just how difficult it is to put this off and let your brushes build up gunk.
As we got started writing these out we realized just how important caring for your skin is, and how many resolutions there are that could provide you with a lifetime of difference by committing to them. The skin care resolutions are going to carry on into blog posts this coming February, because we do believe that many of you could commit to them and see the benefits from such small changes. Make sure to check back soon, we can’t wait to share even more advanced skin care tips with you!
