Healthy skin, contrary to popular belief, is NOT costly! There are many inexpensive ways to ensure that your skin is kept in tip-top shape. All it takes is a little time and consistency.

Healthy skin begins by taking care of yourself inside and out

1. Keep your hands away from your face. Hands carry germs that are often transferred to your face.
   
2. Eat a lot of dark orange and dark green foods to get Vitamin A, which helps promote healthy skin: carrots, sweet potatoes and broccoli are a good start.
   
3. Don’t let unusual moles or birthmarks go unchecked. See a doctor immediately if you notice any changes in colour or texture or if the skin starts to itch, hurt, scab or change in any other way.
