1. Exfoliate the face
With proper exfoliation, you can ensure your skin is polished and luminous. Normal skin types can exfoliate 2-3 times per week, while more sensitive skin should do 1-2 times per week. Choose an exfoliator with good-for-you ingredients that will not only leave skin fresh, but smelling great too.
2. Exfoliate the lips
Bet you didn’t think your lips needed exfoliation, but to ensure a flawless face and to bring out your natural lip pigment, exfoliate your lips at the same time as your face. Use a Clarisonic ($195, Skinstore.com) or even just a toothbrush to get rid of dead cells to reveal smooth, kissable lips.
3. Get rid of under-eye bags
The eyes tell a lot about your health and well-being, so to enhance your natural beauty and go bare faced, try resting with cucumber slices or green tea bags over your eyes for 10-15 minutes. Even though these are everyday products, they can help reduce inflammation and puffiness.

4. Choose a BB Cream
Instead of wearing heavy foundations or feeling self-conscious about having absolutely nothing on, choose a tinted, ultra-lightweight BB Cream, like Naila MD Suncare BB Créme ($40.95, Nailamd.com). You’re getting skincare benefits like SPF with the perfect amount of sheer coverage.
