The Best Guide to Getting Smoother Skin: 5 Tips that Help

We all have some things in common when it comes to our skin. However, we can surely say that we all share a craving for silky and smoother skin. Isn’t that right? 


While we all want to have smooth skin, many environmental factors just keeping us from getting there. From sun exposure to dry air - everything can cause your skin to be rough. 


The first question to ask is: what causes rough and dry skin? The answer is not that simple, since many factors can cause our skin to be rough. Eczema, damaged skin barrier, and lack of hydration are just some of the problems that occur. You also need to know that ingredients in your skincare products can lead to flaky, dull, and rough skin. 


If you want smoothly ageless skin, then make sure to stay away from potentially harmful ingredients such as denatured alcohol. SPF should always be the last step in your skincare routine, and you should be careful with exfoliating, cleaning brushes, etc.


Here are our favorite tips that are tested and proven to get smoother skin. 


Choose a Right Moisturizer

One of the crucial things that all dermatologists agree about is choosing the right moisturizer for your skin. Even though there are many on the market, you should pick the one that is tailored for your skin type or certain problems you have. 


You don’t need the most expensive moisturizer - just the one that is right for you. Search for those that have a mixture of ingredients that will plump your skin and hydrate it. Look for the ingredients such as glycerin, hyaluronic acids, squalene, and ceramides. 


Dermatologists point out to incorporate hyaluronic acid into your daily skincare. It helps your skin to retain moisture and also works on the appearance of smooth skin. 


Protect Skin with SPF Creme

This might sound a bit obvious, but you should really put a sunscreen whenever you are leaving the house. Protecting your skin and body from the harmful sun rays is just another way to get smooth skin. 


If you are thinking about sunbathing, make sure to avoid time between 10 AM and 4 PM. Seek for a shade, use protective sunglasses, clothing, and a hat. The effect of harmful sun rays can be more than visible on both the face and body.

Incorporate a Vitamin C Serum

Incorporating Vitamin C serum into your morning routine can be beneficial for your skin. Vitamin C has anti-aging properties, makes your skin look brighter and smooth. It also protects your skin against free radicals, that come inside our bodies or external environment. 

 

When you use Vitamin C daily, it should boost collagen production so your skin looks flawless. Keep in mind that the Vitamin C serum will be a sun protector as well. Unlike the cream, it penetrates deeper into the skin and is water and rubbing-resistant. 

 

Exfoliation with AHA and BHA 

Dermatologists suggest exfoliating with both Alpha Hydroxy and Beta Hydroxy acids. Exfoliation with AHA can start the skin’s renewal process, with new and younger skin cells appearing, so your skin looks healthier overall. This is not all. AHA helps even your skin tone, skin texture, and it also reduces hyperpigmentation. Use AHAs in the morning and start by exfoliation once a week. 

 

If your skin is oily, then you should try exfoliation with BHA. These acids will remove the residues that hold dead skin cells and improve the look of your face. BHA is great for cleaning clogged pores, improving flaky and dull skin. BHAs can be used morning and night.
