5 Secrets to Healthy, Glowing Skin


In the bright lights and on the big screen, celebrities often look like the picture of health and beauty. While we know that's not always true, we all covet glowing, healthy looking skin; but what does that really mean? To understand the hollywood glow, you have to look at the composition of skin, which is actually quite simple. The largest organ in your body consists of 70% water, 25% protein, and 5% fat and that’s important to remember when attempting to take care of it. Dehydrated skin is one of the major causes of most aesthetic skin problems. In the summer months it doesn't matter whether your skin is oily or traditionally dry, you still need extra moisture. That glow we often see celebrities with isn't just the product of good genes, it comes from hours in the makeup chair, spa bed, and salon station. Luckily, there are steps you can take that will give you that hydrated glow at home, without the VIP experience.
