How to have soft, clear beautiful skin....and stay young...

Every woman wants to stay young and beautiful their whole life. Anyone reading this has a different opinion?? Hands up or comment below… heheheh.. Anyway, these are half a dozen important rules on how to stay young and beautiful….

 1) Take care of your skin

UV rays are harmful and causes wrinkles and other signs of ageing. Do pay special attention to protect your skin from sun damage when you go on holidays or if you live in a hot humid country like Malaysia.

Exfoliation is also one of the most important secrets of youthful appearance! It is the best way to keep your skin soft and glowing, it helps to keep your pores from clogging (keeps acne under control), helps with uneven skin tone, keeps lines and wrinkles in check…

Invest in good moisturizers and take good care of your skin daily and never leave it dehydrated or lacking moisture.

2) Focus on the bright side of life.

Being happy makes you look young and beautiful, and good positive mood influence the way you look and feel. So, it is important to cultivate positive mental attitude, laugh a lot and chose to be happy. 

So, look at the glass half full instead of half empty, notice all the great and positive things that happen to you and be thankful for them and remember to smile often. This way you will stay beautiful, young and attractive for longer. Or would you rather be a wrinkled old crone who is bitter at life???

3) Exercise

You don’t have to go to the gym or have a personal trainer to stay fit. Just work out 15-30 minutes every day at home. Take the stairs. Take a short walk around the park, the neighbourhood, or be like me…take brisk walks around the shopping malls… LOL…

Exercising is proved to be a great mood booster, it can help you to reduce stress and to keep your skin looking healthy.

4) Eat healthy.

Healthy food seldom taste good and unhealthy food often taste great…. Therefore, not many people like eating healthy but it is a must. You are, afterall, what you eat. Fruits and vegetables are primary sources for antioxidants which is much needed by our body to prevent cellular damage caused by free radicals and also nourish our inside organs.

Before starting your day, eat a nutritious breakfast and try to drink at least eight glasses of water throughout the day. A good nutritious breakfast will keep your body active and prevent it from aging while the water will keep your body hydrated.

Avoid smoking and drinking alcohol.. Your body gets dehydrated when you drink or smoke. Also avoid too much tea, coffee and red wine to keep your teeth looking fabulous.

5) Feel young at heart.

Remember to always play and have fun. Embrace your inner child and “wake up” to the excitement and beauty of life! Feel young and you will be young! That is why I am always 18.. I might grow old but I never grow up.. Heck, even my kids are more serious and older then me sometimes..heheh

6) Get beauty sleep.

Getting enough sleep helps you to boost your energy levels, relief stress and keep your weight down. Getting at least 6-7 hours of sleep every night can help you look a lot younger and feel younger too, than your real age!

Do you know using an Enzyme Scrub Mask would be one of the vital skin care that you perform on your skin to help resolve certain skin problems as well as to achieve healthy and glowing skin. An enzyme mask is perfect for someone like me who has combination skin and is gentle enough to apply all over my face. The natural enzymes in fruits such as pineapple are just amazing at removing dead skin cells.

So naturally I was delighted to receive the new 3Bskin Fruitful Cocktail Basket Enzyme Scrub...and I just love it.... it is gentle and effective on my skin and the scent is just such a refreshing pineapple scent...

Let me share a little about what I found out about enzymes and how they actually help our complexion.... What is great about enzymatic exfoliation is that they are also amazing antioxidants and they (the enzymes) exfoliate and replenish your skin without giving you the  feeling like you’re exfoliating (aka no scrubbing necessary). 

The best thing of all is there will not be any redness, inflammation, or sensitivity to the sun caused unlike certain other products..

So you can be sure the 3Bskin Fruitful Cocktail Basket (Enzyme Scrub Mask) is great for all skin types, especially sensitive, because it can assist clearing your skin in a very gentle and targeted way. 

Even if your skin is prone to irritation or extra sensitivity, the 3Bskin Fruitful Cocktail Basket (Enzyme Scrub Mask) will be a great help for deep cleansing as it’s not as harsh as certain physical exfoliation.

Function:

The gentle purifying granules helps exfoliate skin and effectively lifts away pore-clogging impurities, dead skin cells and oil creating smooth, soft healthy looking skin. This dual-action, purifying treatment decongests, detoxifies and refines revealing a polished, flawless complexion. Contains bromelain obtained from pineapple a proteolytic enzyme which dissolves dead cells. 

Direction:

Apply a generous layer to your face and neck with your fingertips after cleansing and toning. Leave for 5 to 15 minutes. Then gently scrub in circular motion with your wet finger followed by sponge off with warm water.

Lets take a closer look since my selfies of myself in the bathroom can't exactly show the product consistency etc... 

I spread a layer of the 3Bskin Fruitful Cocktail Basket (Enzyme Scrub Mask) on half of my hand.... so you can see the difference. It is white in colour, with some granules in it which I believe are Prunus Armeniaca (Apricot) Seed Powder as well as pineapple enzymes.

The texture is grainy but not too harsh, unlike some products I have used before...

This is how it will look like up close.....Then leave it on your face for 10-15 minutes. You might or might not feel some slight tingling... which is not too uncomfortable... then just use a sponge or your hand and wash it off until there are no more residues left..

You can see the difference.. the left side of my hand on this picture is darker, while the right ride of my hand which I used the 3Bskin Fruitful Cocktail Basket (Enzyme Scrub Mask) is much brighter and cleaner....

I like this product a lot and will be using it and buying it again after this.. and if you want a score from me, I would rate this a 4.5 /5
