How can I get a DEWEY complexion?!?

Question

I'm 19, but I feel as though I have very little of a youthful glow or a nice, dewey healthy complexion. How can I get one??? What makeup products work?

Answer 1

Use a quality lotion.

Answer 2

Get a good aerobic exercise (jogging, running, walking fast, dancing) at least3-5 times a week, drink lots and LOTS of water. Nothing makes skin look great by cleansing it and keeping it moisturized on the inside and out, with lots of pure spring water.

A facial scrub like St. Ives Apricot scrub once or twice a week is great at buffing away dead dull skin. Makeup wise, mix a little moisturizer with your foundation, use very little powder, and a complimentary blush for a youthful, "dewey" look.

Answer 3

patweet has some good advice with the proper diet and water intake... lots of water (8 glasses a day)... and you could use olive oil, pure cocoa butter or Vaseline to get that dewey complexion you're looking for. It's cheaper than the store bought stuff, and when you look at the label for moisturisers you will notice that most if not all contain some form of alcohol... alcohol will dry your skin out. That's why I use the natural oils to moisturise... and at 36 years old, I don't have a wrinkle on my face. :) good luck!

Answer 4

Exfoliate once ever week or two. Clinique has a face cream called "total turnaround", which is a moisturizer that actually helps exfoliate. It is quite expensive...about $33(US) per jar, but lasts a long long time.

Answer 5

EAT LOTS OF FRUITS AND VEGGIES AND DRINK LOTS OF WATER. NO JUNK FOOD OR POP. DON'T SMOKE. SMOKING ZAPS A WOMAN'S SKIN OF MOISTURE,AMONG OTHER THINGS.
EXFOLIATE ONCE A WEEK.
BRING A POT OF WATER TO BOIL, TAKE OFF STOVE, PUT A TOWEL OVER YOUR HEAD AND STEAM YOUR FACE, DON'T GET BURNT.
AS FOR MAKEUP YOU PROBABLY DON'T NEED MUCH, BUT TRY A TINTED MOISTURIZER, TRY TO SKIP THE POWDER.
