I'd like to share with you some tips (dont's) of skin care.

1. Don’t Smoke. Not only does smoking restrict blood flow but the
toxins
from the smoke encourage free radical formation. This not only damages
your skin but also allows wrinkles and fine lines to be more
prevalent.

2. Don't Drink excessive alcohol. Although it’s nice to celebrate with
a
few Margaritas every now and then, making it a lifestyle leaves you
with more than a nasty hangover the next day. Aside from damaging your
liver, alcohol slows circulation and dehydrates the body leaving skin
looking older and less lively.

3. Don't Stress out! Easier said than done, I know. Stress causes
breakout on the face that, in turn, leads to even more stress and even
more breakouts! It’s a vicious cycle. Invest in some Yoga classes or
tell the kids to watch a movie while you slip into a nice warm bath
after a long stressful day. Your skin will thank you.

4. Don't Bake in the sun. What’s that sizzling sound? Although a day
at
the beach and blistering sunburn may sound like a great idea, your
skin is screaming for help. UV rays intensify free radical formation,
which, as stated earlier, leads to a more aged look. Get to know SPF
protection. Use it wisely and it will treat you well.

5. Don't Take Too Much Vitamin A
You may have heard that vitamin A helps cure acne. What you may not
know is that if you take too much of it, vitamin A can accumulate in
your liver to dangerous levels and cause serious health problems. It’s
best to get your vitamin A in moderation, from whole foods. Good
sources include leafy greens (like spinach and watercress) and orange
veggies (like sweet potatoes, pumpkin, and carrots
