Your average water intake should be minimum 3.5 liters daily. The more you drink water, the more is the glow!
Use a safe sunscreen daily: The ultraviolet rays are the primary cause of skin aging. To protect your skin, use a mineral-based sunscreen that is SPF 30 or higher. Apply it as the final step in your daily skincare routine every morning. If you have very sensitive skin, do not forget to reapply it every two hours.
Exfoliate: A very mild exfoliation helps to dissolve the dead cells on the skin’s surface leading to glowing skin. Do not use a harsh scrub or cloth.
