How to get smooth and fair skin is the most commonly asked question, especially amongst youth. The skin reveals a lot about the health and hygiene of a person. It can be referred as the covering of our body, which can be compared to the wrapper of a gift. The more attractive the wrapper, the more nice the gift seems. Just like that, the clearer and smoother the skin, the more beautiful the person appears. Thus, it is very important to pay attention towards it. Getting a clear skin just requires a bit of effort and minor changes in your daily routine to induce that glow.

Retouching skin is rarely an easy task. There are no absolutes when it comes to making skin look the ‘right’ color, smoothing out wrinkles, or reducing blemishes and blotchiness. This tip will take you through one popular technique for smoothing skin texture for a younger, smoother look.

Sea salt removes dry, flaky, dead skin
Wet face (or anywhere on the body), apply a couple of tablespoons of sea salt, then gently massage with a wet washcloth or fingers. Focus on the T-zone and cheeks, but avoid the eye area. After one or two minutes, rinse with cold water to tighten the pores. It is important to do this regularly, or face-creams will not penetrate.

Skin Sauna
A good deep cleansing treat is to give your face a sauna. This is especially good for congested skin. You need to fill a bowl with near boiling water and add four drops of each of the essential oils recommended for your skin type.

NORMAL: Mandarin and Lavender.
OILY: Lemon and Eucalyptus.
DRY: Rose and Camomile.

Place a towel over your head and hold it over the bowl from a distance of about 30cm for a period of around two minutes. This opens the pores and prepares it for a face mask. You should not use a face sauna if you have sensitive skin, are pregnant or suffer from asthma.

Wrinkle Remover
Green Thompson seedless grapes! It has one of the ingredients in those big time expensive wrinkle creams. All you do is cut a grape in half and gently crush it on your face and neck. Make sure that you get the "crows-feet" and the lines around your mouth. Leave it on for twenty minutes or so and rinse with tepid water and pat dry. Repeat every day and before you know it... those nasty old lines will be hard to find! Don't forget to drink at least 8 glasses of water daily. And... eat veggies rich in Vitamin A, such as carrots, celery and spinach. If you can, try and get at least 8 hours of sleep every night.
