Stay hydrated... and consider your diet

This one is a biggie — and one my mom says is often discounted by most people. What we put into our bodies makes a major difference on how our skin appears and looks. Hydration is essential to stay youthful and healthy, as well as keeping our skin clear. When I've struggled with acne, my mom is the first to point a finger to my diet and encourage me to be more mindful and pay attention to what causes flare-ups. With her help, I've identified dairy and citrus fruits as culprits and cut them out of my diet completely. Thanks mama!
