How can I have smooth, spot free skin?

I really want skin which is hydrated, smooth and no pores or spots. Whenever I try sport cream on my forehead, it dries it out in a couple of days. I've tried drinking water, it helps a bit but my legs are still dry. My forehead has some spots on them and on my face I have these pores and little bumps which look clear spots. How can I get rid of it, without buying lots of products? Any natural remedies or food?How can I have smooth, spot free skin?
Keep your body healthy and it will come out in your skin. I know its an old clich茅 but it really is true. I have the problem that I don't like fruit and veg very much and I don't like to exercise and I don't like water, but on the occasions where I have really put my mind to sorting myself out (force feeding myself fruit %26amp; veg and drinking flavoured water) it has worked and I have felt so much better about myself. My face cleared up and my skin glowed.





Eat healthily, exercise, invest in a good facial sauna, take some good vitamins (visit holland %26amp; barratt) and away you go... Good Luck!How can I have smooth, spot free skin?
Face: Pro activ. Body: Baby oil gel ( and yes they have baby oil gel; it keeps skin moist and smooth.)
I share your pain. My skin is ultra dry, too. I find that using a thick, creamy body wash such as Olay's Body Ribbons when in the shower and then using Aveeno's Daily Moisturizing Lotion after your shower. Both heal your skin quickly and effectively. For your face, use Neutrogena's Visibly Even Night Concentrate. It's mostly to make your skin tone more even and healthy looking, but it does help with dry spots. It's jam packed with soy and vitamin c so it will also help to heal your skin quickly.





If you want to take a oral remedy, then take fish oil. It helps dry skin and it is actually prove to show to clear your skin of pimples. Unfortunately it can take a while to kick in.





I hope this helped you!
Simply drink 8-10 glasses of water, it really works.


Moisturise your body morning and night in a cream of your choice.


Your pores are more difficult i think there was an advert that claimed a certain product could close them up more (not completely however) - sorry dont know the name of it.


As for natural remedies look up alternative and natural remedies on ask.com.
bit of TCP sort it out. Have you tried cuddling a badger?
i recommend doing this. once a week take a washcloth and some exfoliating product like st.ives apricot scrub, then gently massage your face with it. when i did this i noticed my face got smoother, acne scars lightened, pores smaller,
I would suggest upping the amount of Omega Oils (3 %26amp; 6) that you have in your diet. The quickest way is a spoonful of Udo's oil each morning - your skin will be so soft after a week - you won't believe it!


Then I would recommend using Neals Yard Wild Rose Balm on your face - it comes with a little muslin cloth - so you're exfoliating - its organic and smells heavenly! Your face will be smooth and glowing. Good Luck!
Genetics play a big part in this, failing that expect to get a lot of diet advice
Avocado's are good for your skin, as is yoghurt. Also oily fishes are good for your skin. You can buy a great supplement from Holland and Barrett called Skin, Hair and Nails. It is their own brand and it is fantastic! Cod liver oil capsules are also good for skin but they don't taste too great if you are not a fish lover!!!


Other good foods include nuts, seeds and berries.


good luck with it x
There are quite a few good points given but...rarely does one have spot free or perfect skin, you're not alone.


here are some suggestions: (inexpensive), for body: go to healthfood store and ask for ';cold pressed olive oil'; (wont have oder), to create you're own lotion, get ';musk oil'; pour olive oil into a plastic squirt bottle and add drops of ';musk oil'; until it has scent to you're liking, now you have a great and inexpensive and personalised Lotion. Can be used all over. We use it in Salons for body massage.


The bumps, sounds like embedded white heads, if so, will need to be extracted by a professional Skin Technician.


Do try to drink lots of water and if you dont like vegies, drink a V8 juice daily or twice. Hope this helps.
Sometimes spots can derive from cysts in your ovary.Better if you ask a dermatologist or gynecologist.Because in case taking the pill can be a solution. Then do not eat/drink: junk food, fried food,alcholic drinks,etc. Clay masks help,but you can even make your own mask (my grandmom teaches): a bit of milk shaken with some lemon juice.Leave it for some time on the spots.
firstly , using sport cream will deffo not help - in fact what is it? Does sport cream exisit?? Humm!





Anyway I know many people who have this problem - however becuase they look so bad I do not know them anymore!!! But dont take offence at this.. I am just picky - no pun intended!!





I find if you shove your head down a toilet loo and flush it - the nasty bacteria on your face will mix well with toilet bacteria!





Good luuck!!!
Salmon is great for your skin and along with drinking water which you're already doing.





Maybe you're not exfoliating enough and all the dead skin is staying trapped on your face from all the lotions you've been putting on?


Try a loofah for your legs, that'll exfoliate them nicely, along with another exfoliatant for your face.


Don't itch your legs! You may be doing that as well from the dry skin, I know itching feels amazing but it'll be even worse after





I guess for nice skin it's all about taking care of it. I'd start with a gentle face wash for, maybe one made for sensitive skin? If you're still dry and then try a face wash made for extra dry skin.


Don't load on your make up, that'll clog pores big time.


You can never get rid of pores, they're naturally on your face - you can make them smaller though


Go to the drug store and ask for a face wash, astrigent and then lotion. Wash your face in those 3 steps. Face wash is there to get all the grim off, astrigent will tighten pores and lotion will moisturize.


Good luck
Forget about puting gunk on it. Drink loads of water, eat plenty fruit and vegetables, wash regularly and exercise well.
Proactive is ok but clear.now worked much better for me. Like proactive, it's a three-step system, but the way I understand it, the molecules are smaller so they get into your pores more easily -- I just know I've seen the difference in my own face. You can get it from www.jewel.mychoices.biz -- just use the search field at the bottom of the screen to find it. Hope this helps.
Pro-active is rubbish and a rip off... it might work to begin with but then your skin will get used to it and the spots will return. I know it sounds like something a mum would say but honestly, the simply solution is eat healthy. It really does work i swear.
Nature's Beauty products. They are excellent on dry skin.
Here's what i use. I had acne really bad, spots everywhere, big cystic ones, small ';sandpaper'; type bumps, everything! I use Apple Cider Vinegar. I wash using soap, pat dry, and then apply ACV to my face with a cotton wool ball. Don't worry about the smell, it will go after a couple of mins. It is great for smoothing out the skin tone. Also I use Oxy on the Spot cream, which kills the bumps you talk about. It is drying, as you say, but if you use Sudocrem over the top (which is a nappy rash cream) it will stop the drying and is great for soft skin. I promise you these 3 things will sort out your skin!
I agree with the eat well and exercise brigade. Of course a lot of it is genetic (and hormone related), so there's only so much you can do.





Try to avoid lotions and potions - these are really unnecessary and I'm sure the chemicals are no good for us. If you do want to use cosmetic products check out what they have at Lush. Loads of natural stuff, no (or little) preservatives, not animal tested and really friendly helpful staff.





Above all, avoid products tested on animals: what's the point of having good skin if it's the result of causing harm to other creatures?
Plenty of water. Do not use perfumed soaps. Try porage oats mixed with aqeous cream - this acts as both a moisturiser and an exfoliant.
wash with oil of olay face cleaner麓s they are really good , you drink lot麓s of water . plenty fruit and veg less sweet product麓s . early night麓s and a nice hot flannel on your face will open the pores . Leg麓s lot麓s of moisturising cream day and night , especially when coming straight from the shower
evening primrose is supposed to be really good for spots...
My mother always washed her face with soap and COLD water all her life. She always had lovely skin.
Drinking 8-10 glasses of water, fresh salads fruits and vegetables are the key to beautiful skin. You must have atleast 5 portions of fruits and vegetables in your diet everyday and try to have a rainbow (Different colours of fruits and vegetable). Olives and avacados moisturise your skin from with in. Once a week steam your face. Cleanse your skin with mild moisturising soap. Dont forget to exercise atleast for 20 min everyday.
Try puritycosmetics.co.uk. It is made from natural ingredients and looks really good!

Drink loads and eat healthy!


Also, do you shower alot? I used to take two showers every day (I like sports) but since I cut it to one my skin has been alot healthier.
PROACTIVE!
pro Activ. is soooooooo good.
Your diet is sooooo important. lots of fruit and veg, esp olives and tomatoes, alchohol is ok in moderation and you need real sunshine like spain, 2 to 3 hours a day.


make up is a lie. if you want it for real you have to live it.
