How You Can Get Completely Clear Skin in One Week?

Getting completely clear skin in a week is quite a lot to ask of your skin. At times, it can take many days or even weeks to completely get rid of a mark on the skin.

Moreover, the exact condition of the skin varies from one individual to another which makes it difficult to tell exactly what to do to make the steps towards clearer skin, but I can tell you ways to make your skin appear healthier within one week and what you can do to improve overall health of your skin and avoid future blemishes.

Step 1: Have a Dermatologist to determine your skin type, nature and recommend a skin care line suitable for your skin type. No matter the condition of your skin, you need to be following a procedure that is formulated for your type. This is the first step to seeing improved skin clarity and one that people often overlook. Using a line not formulated for your skin type can lead to more problems that you may not have dealt with otherwise.

Step 2: Exfoliate 2 times a week. Use a mild scrub (Honey Almond Scrub by Repechage is one of my personal favorites). Make no more than 3 passes over the face/neck. Over-exfoliating will cause you to start sloughing off live skin cells which can lead to inflammation and other problems. Exfoliating will help resurface skin texture and smoothe fine lines and wrinkles.

Step 3: Use a toner and moisturizer AM/PM. A lot of people don’t use these as a part of their regimen, but they are both very important to one’s routine. Toner helps to regulate body pH level as well as hydrate the skin. Toners with humectants and botanicals can really help nourish the skin. Moisturizers need to be the finishing part of any regimen as they provide a protective layer over your skin to fight infection/environmental factors as well as seal in moisture.

Step 4: Add a serum into your plan and wear sunscreen. Serums such as those with vitamin E can really help plump up your skin and fights free radicals, reducing the signs of aging. Another good ingredient in serums is hyaluronic acid (helps lock in moisture and improves collagen synthesis). Wearing sunscreen everyday will also aid in the prevention of premature aging.

Step 5: Properly care for blemishes. If a pimple arises (and you are not oily skin type) be sure to keep up with your weekly exfoliation and spot treat the blemish. Do not apply harsh ingredients to your entire face. Only to the infected area. Do not pick at the blemish and make sure to still moisturize at the end of this treatment.

Step 6: Get a monthly facial. If you can keep a monthly facial appointment, then invest in yourself. Your skin is your body’s largest organ and it needs to be taken care of properly so that it can continue to function properly and protect you. If you can’t go monthly, try for every change of season. Your Dermatologist can monitor how your skin is progressing and if the needs to be any changes in your regimen arise. They will also provide you with treatments your skin may be needing that you would not otherwise perform at home.

Weekly use of a mask can also give your skin a nice glow as well as many other benefits! You should be able to start seeing some results within a week by following these steps. Just know there is no quick fix to damaged skin. Follow these steps and you will surely see a befitting results.

Note:
You don’t have to see these steps as burdensome which will make you reluctant in taking them, relieve yourself of any stress and take the steps. Have it at the back of your mind that your health is your most valuable asset.
