Some women are surprised by the condition of their skin that looks dull. Even though various skincare products with expensive prices have been diligently done.

Avoid Smoking
Having healthy skin can also start by leaving bad habits such as smoking. This greatly affects skin conditions and aging.
It is certain that smoking has a bad effect on the skin. The difference between women who smoke and non-smokers is on average different. Women who smoke will look older than those who do not smoke. It is very different when seen from the texture and appearance of the skin.
Cigarettes contain many chemicals that are very bad for the skin, they can inhibit the supply of oxygen to the skin, and wrinkles will appear more clearly in the lip area.

Beautiful Doesn't Have to Be White
It cannot be denied that in society, the assumption is often found that the whiter the more beautiful.
Now it is widely heard from consumers who use skincare that there is a benchmark that white is beautiful. So even those with mercury are willing to be used for the sake of glowing and white.
In fact, each person genetically has a different skin type. For example, a person with brown skin will not be able to become as white as someone with less melanin.
In other words, well-groomed skin does not mean it has to be whiter.
