Standing upright with a lot of confidence and believing in yourself are important aspects so that you feel good about yourself. After all, when radiating security you radiate beauty. However, every woman who stands in front of a mirror can say that beauty secrets also count. Take note.
To stay well you do not need the most expensive, or the most complicated, or the most painful. Experts argue that most of us should only pay attention to a few basic beauty secrets that can help you look and feel good without spending a lot of time or money.
Tip # 1: Never underestimate the power of moisturizers
It does not matter if your skin is dry, normal, or oily. You do not have to invest in many creams, with just one product that is good you can have a dream skin.
"Sometimes all you need is a good moisturizer and a mild cleanser to take years off your face," says Rhoda Narins, MD, professor at the University of New York and president of the American Society of Dermatological Surgery. 'When the skin is dry, each wrinkle is accentuated, making you look older'.
If you're in your 20s or 30s, doctors say, moisturizers will give you the protection you need to prevent premature aging, says Park Avenue plastic surgeon Darrick Antell, MD.
But then, what is a 'good' moisturizer for you? Dermatologist Carlos E. Crutch field III, MD, says: 'It is a product that adds moisture and seals what it has achieved, allowing the skin to produce more moisture.' What you need is to see what cream you should choose according to the individual needs of your skin.
If the skin goes from normal to dry, look for moisturizers that contain alpha hydroxides. They help the skin produce more moisture on its own, says Crutchfield, an associate clinical professor of dermatology at the University of Minnesota School of Medicine.
If the skin is very dry, products that use a technology called vesicular emulsion are suggested. "This technology uses microscopic spheres that constitute layers that alternate moisture and water, obtaining continuous hydration," says Crutchfield.
If the skin is oily, look for a soft and light moisturizer. 'Fat is not moisture; so you have excess fat you still need to moisten. '

Tip # 2: Sunscreen is the best Anti-aging product.
Before seeing a plastic surgeon, before spending half the salary on anti-aging creams, put on sunscreen. We all know that sunscreen reduces the risk of skin cancer, but do you also know that it is an amazing beauty secret that helps maintain a youthful skin? People who get very exposed to the sun cringe long before their time.
Without the protection of the sunscreen, if you expose your skin (even if only for a couple of minutes) every day in the sun (and not necessarily a sunny day, as UV rays pass through these gray clouds), in a short time you will see changes remarkable in the skin, says the American Academy of Dermatology.
'Not only will more wrinkles and lines appear, but also spots and veins'. The skin becomes rough and loose, all thanks to the sun. Crutchfield advises choosing a sunscreen with SPF 15 or more. Apply every hour or two, and use regular sunscreen before putting on makeup.

Tip # 3: Choose your cleaner wisely.
If what you use daily to clean your face is soap and water, you can reconsider your cleaning strategy. Dermatologists say that one of the best beauty tips is to use a mild cleanser and use it sparingly.
Washing your face too often - more than twice a day - can cause you to damage the natural lipid barrier, which is the protective mantle that keeps your skin lubricated to look and feel healthy.
'Once the protection is lost and the impermeability barrier is interrupted, the skin becomes dry'. This, in addition to making you look old, can cause itching, burning and stinging, says Crutch field. Wash your skin no more than twice a day and choose your cleanser wisely.
And periodically use an exfoliate to remove the dead cells that dull your skin. Here we leave you the favorite recipe of our editor, based on coconut oil, natural and delicious.
