To have clear glowing skin it is essential that you follow a regular skin care program as well as a healthy diet. A good skin care plan is essential to keep your skin clear of all blemishes while a nutritious diet helps to keep your entire body – including your skin, healthy.

You will need to use a face wash, a face scrub and a moisturizer on a regular basis.

You can buy a good cosmetic face wash that is meant for your skin type and suits your skin. Not all face washes meant for your particular skin type will suit you, so experiment with several until you find one that cleanses your skin without leaving it either too dry or too oily. You can also use your own homemade face wash for glowing skin.

Use fresh tomato juice as a base for your face wash. If you have oily skin add an equal quantity of lemon juice to it; if you have normal skin, mix an equal amount of honey and if you have dry skin mix an equal amount of a mixture of honey and coconut milk. Use a cotton ball dipped in this face wash to massage your face thoroughly but gently. Rinse you face with lukewarm or cold water and allow it to dry naturally. Use this face wash at least twice a day to keep your skin clean of all dirt and grime. Mix the juice of a single lemon and a couple of spoons of sugar. This is the base for your face scrub for glowing skin. If you have dry skin, you can add a little avocado paste to this mixture. This will provide your skin with additional fatty acids and prevent your skin from excessive drying. Use this scrub every alternate day to exfoliate your skin and get rid of the uppermost layer of dead skin cells. You can mix a few drops of olive oil, almond oil and jojoba oil to 3 tablespoons of water. Shake this mixture up well and use this liquid as a nourishing moisturizer.

Your daily diet will have to include plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. You should also cut down on your intake of sugary or white flour products. These often cause your skin to look dull and lifeless and have also been known to trigger acne outbreaks. Make sure that you restrict your intake of fried foods as they contain large amounts of unhealthy fats. Do not cut out fats from your diet completely but make sure that you consume healthy fats like those found in fish and flaxseed oil.
