Are you expecting your skin to magically glow up since you have been indoors sans makeup? While skipping makeup and letting your skin breathe is a great way to keep your skin healthy, it isn’t enough. We have just what you need — the right habits and tips for glowing skin. Follow these and get that wonderful, dewy glow… without your no-makeup makeup.

1. H20 is your best friend

While applying good products can help your skin glow to a certain level, you have to work harder than that. And you may have heard this a million times but drinking water is really one of the best ways to get glowing skin. Those eight glasses of water will work their magic like no other product. Keep your water bottle handy at all times and sip away.

2. A glass of warm water in the morning is the best detox

One of the best tips for glowing skin is not just hydrating your skin but also detoxifying it. And having a glass of warm water at the beginning of the day goes a long way in getting that glow. It flushes out all the toxins in your body giving you a hydrated and healthy glow from within. You can always mix up some ingredients and make yourself some delicious detox water if you aren’t a fan of plain warm water.

3. Apply sunscreen religiously

One of the most important habits to follow, and not just for glowing skin, is to always use sunscreen. Whether you are indoors or outdoors, never skip your SPF. To protect your skin from sun damage and exposure, opt for a sunscreen that has SPF 30+ and PA+++ protection. And you can always go for lightweight options instead of the ones that leave your skin feeling greasy and oily.

4. Double cleanse to get the job done

Makeup or no makeup, even if you have just sunscreen on your face, don’t cleanse only with your regular face wash. When you wash your face directly after putting makeup or sunscreen on your face, chances are it won’t get removed completely. One of the most useful tips for glowing skin is doing a double cleanse. First, use your makeup remover to clean your skin and then go ahead with your face wash or cleanser. This will ensure proper removal of the products and clean your skin thoroughly.

5. Follow a proper skincare routine

While it is good to keep switching up products in your skincare routine, it is important to have one in the first place. Sticking to a regular skincare routine or practice will ensure that you have clean and hydrated skin. Giving undivided attention to your skin regularly, instead of doing it once in a blue moon, will reflect in your later years as well.

6. Move those facial muscles

Facial massages and exercises are a great way of stimulating the blood flow in your face. Doing so reduces swelling, and the movement will keep your skin tight. Going around in circular motions while massaging your face will help uplift your skin and give you a healthy glow.

7. Stop popping those pimples

No matter how tempting it is to pop a pimple, it only makes those zits worse. Popping pimples can leave scars on your face and make your skin look textured. Doing so also causes redness, inflammation, and swelling. And it not only damages the skin tissues, this action also makes the bacteria go deeper into your skin.

8. Skip the carbs

What you eat eventually shows up on your face and body. If you are constantly consuming foods with high sugar and carbs, you might as well say goodbye to clear and glowing skin. Following a healthy nutritious diet ensures that you get the vitamins and minerals your body and skin need.

9. Get your beauty sleep

Beauty sleep is not just a term, it’s a whole concept that most of us are far away from understanding. Getting quality sleep and just sleeping for 12 hours straight are two very different things. Getting eight to nine hours of healthy sleep is important for your skin to look radiant and fresh. 11pm is the perfect time to go to sleep so that your skin cells get enough time to repair and regenerate.

10. Sweat it out

Who doesn’t love a natural, post-workout blush? Working out and sweating is one of the most effective ways of getting rid of toxins and unclogging your pores. Start working out on a daily basis and try not to do it on a treadmill with the AC on. Go for a run in the park or sweat it out by doing cardio at home. And you will not just have glowing skin but a healthy body too.
