Knowledge and Persistence leads to success I have always been fascinated by the question 'why some people can and others can't?' I spent years trying to figure this out. At first it was mainly for myself. I remember growing up with little confidence and under the impression that others were more capable than I was. The fact was that this impression was true. It was true because i believed it. If you believe something than that belief will pave your life.

TIPS TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR SKIN
· Sunscreen is the real fountain of youth. Get into the habit of applying sunscreen or a lotion with minimum SPF 15 to 30 protection daily. Remember the sun's rays can still be damaging in winter months as it reflects off snow. If you don't like taking the time to put on both moisturizer and sunscreen, buy a moisturizer WITH sunscreen.
· Use homemade masks to moisturize your skin. They're easy to make, and they really work! For instance, a mixture of grapes, lemon and egg white is very helpful for oily skin and honey promotes the healing of ulcers and burns.
· Washing your face with plain refrigerated yogurt every night makes most acne cases vanish within a few days.
· Carefully choose your facial scrub to match your pore size. The type and size of the grains in the face scrub can actually make the difference between exfoliated and irritated skin.
· Avoid stretching or pulling on the delicate skin near your eyes when putting on creams or cosmetics. This delicate area shows age markings like wrinkles much sooner than it should when subjected to too much rough handling.
· Never coat your entire face in foundation. Chances are, you only need a little bit in areas you are most self- conscious in.
· Wash all cosmetics off as soon as you know you will not be going out again and avoid wearing cosmetics whenever possible to give your skin a rest.
· Change the applicators and clean the brushes you use to apply make-up on a consistent basis. Bacteria and oils can build up in these places and then be spread back on the skin each time make-up is applied.
· Never pick at a blemish. Many poor results come of picking at breakouts, such as scarring, infection, or permanent enlargement of the pore. You are also more likely to get another breakout in the same place over time.
· Avoid touching your skin as much as possible.
· Clean your cellphone and any other device that may come in contact with your skin.
· Oil blotting sheets can help absorb oil through the day so you are not tempted to re-apply powder or foundation, or overwash your face.
· Vitamins are essential for healthy skin, especially vitamins A, B, and C. Vitamin E helps to improve the complexion when applied externally.
