Stay out of hot water

A steamy shower may feel great, but It is one of the worst things you can do for your skin.Not only does the heat strip essential oils, but it creates a mild burn.Blood vessels respond by dilating in an effort to cool the skin, causing flushing and ruddiness.When you are in your twenties, you can take a hot shower, be red and swollen and recover in an hour, but in your thirties, it may take 2 hours, says Alexiades Armenakas.By your forties, your skin just does not have the ability to shrink back to its original state so you stay ruddy all the time.
