Exercise daily using calisthenics. Breathe deeply.
Cleanse and tone the skin twice daily.

Top 10 Skin Care Don’ts
1. Avoid indoor tanning. It can cause skin cancer and premature aging.
2. Do not smoke. It can kill you.
3. Stay away from the sun from 10 A.M. – 4 P.M., when its rays are their most dangerous.
4. Avoid stressful situations. Proper planning prevents anxiety.
5. Do not eat junk food.
6. Avoid processed foods with a high nitrate, sugar and sodium content.
7. Do not eat fried foods.
8. Do not use soaps and avoid benzoyl peroxide, hydrogen, retinoic acid and glycolic acid, because they reduce the protective barrier of the skin.
9. Do not pick and scratch your skin. It removes a barrier and may cause infections.
10. Do not overdue anything – remember less is always more.
