Someone like to protect their skin by more skin care cream, and some people want to make natural skin care. It is caring for your skin in a natural and chemical-free way. 'Natural skin care' advocates enabling the skin to take care of itself (without any assistance from synthetic materials/ chemicals). 'Natural skin care' is about inculcation of good habits in the way you lead your day to day life. A lot of natural skin care measures are actually the same as those for body care in general. Well the first and the foremost natural skin care measure is - 'Drink a lot of water'. Around 8 glasses of water is a must everyday. General cleanliness is another inexpensive way of natural skin care. Regular exercise is the next thing on the cards. Healthy food and eating habits are also recommended for natural skin care. What do you like to do for your natural skin care? How do you protect your skin?

hi kevinll, Nice tips for natural skin care! I think, drinking the right amounts of water will definitely help improve our skin's elasticity and texture. I do protect my skin naturally by avoiding myself to sun exposure. Eating fruits and vegetables that are rich in vitamins A, C and E are great ways to combat skin aging. Moisturizing our skin daily with natural products that are mild to use are important as well like, coconut oil, milk and other natural scrubs or expoliants. I do think that, apart from natural remedies, the best way to protect our skin from harsh elements are by using sunblock creams and moisturizers. I honestly don't think that the things I have mentioned are enough, we still need to use products that are readily available over the counter. In my case, I only use products that are mild to the skin and made from the finest ingredients but at an affordable price.
