Some of us might think that skin-care routines are for ladies. But if you are into business like me, fetching million dollar deals are worth the time spent doing your own facial cleansing and routine checkup. Don’t ever forget that your first impression always lasts longer in your customers’ head than you would expect. A good look with nice clean facial skin may prove to be your ultimate prerequisite in striking your negotiation deal. Here are some of the do’s and don’ts in getting perfect skin.

Do’s of perfect skin

Do exercise. Physically fit people look good and feel good. Exercise improves internal circulation to bring oxygen and nutrients to the skin. This makes skin firmer and better nourished, as well as slowing down aging. Regular exercise also helps prolong your life, build self-confidence and reshape your figure. Your improved circulation will help to calm nerves and promote a more revitalizing sleep. Move more, feel younger, and look better!

Do use products. Cleanse your face everyday with cleanser, toner and moisturizer. There are literally hundreds and hundreds of different brands and makes to choose from, but always use products suitable for your skin type, whether it is oily or dry. Have a good consultation from a skincare expert to determine the most suitable type of product for your skin.

Do drink water. A major cause of skin winkles is water loss from the skin. Water hydrates your skin, keeping it moist, soft and supple. Drink at least 6 to 8 glasses of water a day. If you are like me, bring a small bottle of water in your briefcase so you can always have water to drink whenever you go.

Do rest. Lack of sleep makes your skin look dry and dull, and your eyes will become puffy. When we don’t have enough sleep or rest, we feel tired and listless. We need an average of 8 hours of sleep every night, but many of us have only 5 to 6 hours. The effects of inadequate sleep will start to show as you age.

Do eat properly. Keep your vitamin up by eating at least 5 portions of fruits or vegetables daily. If you are not getting enough vitamins from good, take multivitamin supplements. Stay away from fatty foods, as they will make your skin greasy.
