Is it possible to visibly firm up my skin?

Body Fit Anti-Cellulite Contouring Expert

Is your skin looking a little loose? Are you noticing your lines are more prominent than before? These issues could be caused by a number of problems, however, the most likely scenario is that your skin is starting to sag.

1. What causes skin to sag?

When it comes to skin starting to lose its appearance of firmness, we can attribute it to a number of causes: aging, weight fluctuations, sun exposure, and more. These factors can take a visible toll on our bodies, but luckily the right skin care regimen can help reduce visible signs of skin aging. Incorporating a skin firming lotion, anti-aging cream, and skin exfoliation can help noticeably smooth the skin and leave it supple and youthful-looking.

2. How can I make my sagging skin appear smooth?

There is no immediate cure for saggy skin, and even the best anti aging cream isn’t going to miraculously turn you into a teenager overnight. But with nourishing, smoothing formulas for face and body, it’s possible to improve the appearance of your skin. Finding the right skin care regimen and making lifestyle changes to stay fit will help your skin appear visibly smooth, radiant, and supple.

3. Create the best skin care routine

One of the first things that you must do in order to improve your skin tone and the health of your skin, is to put an in-depth, effective skin-care routine into your everyday schedule.

Clarins Body Fit Anti-Cellulite Contouring Expert, which is powered by 8 amazing plant extracts, such as organic Quince Leaf, is a great start on the journey to healthy-looking skin. Use this cellulite-targeting treatment gel daily - in addition to working out regularly - and your skin will look and feel supple and smooth.

Start by doing skin exfoliation once or twice a week. Regularly using a body scrub will help boost the action of any products you apply afterward. Try an exfoliator that works well on all skin types, such as Exfoliating Body Scrub for Smooth Skin with bamboo powder, or the Tonic Sugar Polisher exfoliator, which gently sloughs away dead skin cells and is perfect for sensitive skin to. In addition to exfoliating weekly, apply a moisturizer with contouring benefits daily. Whether you prefer a gel, cream, or something milkier, there's a wide range of different textures to choose from. You might try a lightweight formula like our Extra-Firming Body Lotion or our rich, indulgent Extra-Firming Body Cream.

There are targeted products that tackle specific areas such as the Bust Beauty Firming Lotion and the Bust Beauty Extra-Lift Gel. These products are highly effective on targeted areas. Finally, you can finish off your routine with Tonic Body Treatment Oil, made from 100% plant extracts. As soon as you get out of the shower, apply a few drops of the oil to wet skin, gently massaging it in before rinsing with cold water.

You should also look into a hydrating face cream for your everyday routine, such as the Clarins Extra-Firming Day SPF 15 to feel young and refreshed throughout the day. This Age-defying moisturizer is suitable for all skin types, and includes a Broad Spectrum SPF 15 sunscreen to boot!

4. Get exercising

When trying to figure out how to get smooth skin, one of the simplest and most effective methods to consider is simply exercising. When you exercise, the blood rushes through your vessels and replenishes your skin with fresh, oxygenated blood. Having a good workout routine should include weight training; muscle creates and firmer and tighter look, which makes it an excellent addition to your usual cardio burn. It’s recommended to workout at least 3 times a week if you want to see the big improvements that can be achieved.

5. Improve your diet

There’s no point in working out if you aren’t going to complement it by eating healthy food and drinking plenty of water. Amino acids and essential fatty acids are found in foods rich in good fats like avocado, salmon, and nuts.

Collagen and elastin, which are essential to restore and revive sagging skin, are found in protein-rich foods like chicken, beef, eggs, nuts and bone broths - remember to try and buy natural, organic or grass-fed products where you can for the best results. A good helping of fruits and vegetables each and every day, alongside a lot of water will keep your skin healthy and hydrated.

Giving up smoking is a great idea for your overall health and will help your skin recover and bounce back to a youthful glow. Remember that alcohol dehydrates your body and the toxins can dry out your skin and leave it feeling saggy and dull. Drink alcohol in moderation and always rehydrate your body after a heavy night.
