Getting perfect skin is perfectly easy...

Your skin - we treat it pretty badly when you think about it.

If you live in a city, then whenever you are out and about there are lots of pollutants, dirt and other nasties in the air that are bombarding against your skin all of the time.

These dirt particles might not be obvious but for instance if you take the London tube you can probably even smell the dirt and in extreme circumstances if you blow your nose after being somewhere dirty you can actually see it!

Faced with this, what does it mean?

Well two key things - one is the need to wash the face regularly to get pollutants off the skin, and the second is to use a good quality moisturiser to put the water and goodness back into the skin.

Those are the two key insights - you need to wash your face more!

Now this provides a problem for some women at work, as caked in make-up and foundation, it is hard to do as you have to take your face off and then put it back on again straight after. So what's the recommendation here then?

Well, it is the other key fact - that wearing make-up is part of the reason people have bad skin!

Yes ironically the more you wear it the more you need it, which is good for those that make and sell the products of course. That's for two reasons, first most make-up stops the skin breathing as easily, so the pores can get blocked more easily, and secondly the particulates in the air like bits of dirt find it easier to stick to the make-up than they do just to plain skin, which then can sometimes lead to spots and so on.

Therefore if you want really good and perfect skin there are three things to do:
- don't wear make-up on your face like foundation and so on
- wash face regularly
- use a good quality moisturiser twice daily

It might sound scary not to wear make up, but if you follow these tips and have that lovely skin, then you'll be the envy of your friends because you don't need to wear it!
