  Use a daily face wash and moisturizer that is balanced for your skin type. Most skincare products are formulated for more than one type of skin and you can choose which one best fits your skin.
  For instance, for skin that is oily and plagued with blemishes, Clean & Clear daily face wash and accompanying moisturizer is a great choice. Always remember to cleanse your face after wearing makeup as neglect in this area can lead to blemishes and clogged pores.
  Utilize a cleansing body wash and moisturizer formulated for your skin as well.

  Wear sunscreen every single day. Even if you don't plan on going out in the sun, harmful UV rays can get to your skin even when you're indoors. Sun damage can cause sun spots, freckles, wrinkles and even skin cancer. Wearing sunscreen every day helps to combat the damage the sun can cause.

  Drink plenty of water each day. Experts recommend at least eight glasses a day, containing eight ounces of water. Drinking water helps flush your body of toxins and purifies your skin. No vital organ can function properly without water and our skin is our body's largest organ.
  Drinking water replenishes and hydrates your skin, giving it a healthy glow and clear complexion. If water is not your favorite drink in the world, try adding a twist of lemon or lime to make it more palatable.
