It turns out that these bad habits can really negatively impact your skin along with other aspects of your health. Whether your reason to drop these bad habits is to save money, live healthier, lose weight, etc.-- we'll give you yet another reason to drop those habits! 

• Smoking- Did you know smoking is one of the top aging accelerators for your skin? And more than that, it's the fastest acting of those three. Noticeable aging sets in after only 10 years of smoking!
• Drinking Excessively- Of course your class of wine with dinner or an occasional social drink will not harm you, an excessive consumption of alcohol over time can dehydrate your skin, making it appear dull and dry. 
• Not Getting Enough Sleep- While the obvious immediate effect on your skin is puffy-eyed complexion, a more lasting effect is your body's stress that will produce the hormone- cortisol which can increase breakouts, breakdown collagen and age the skin.
• Skipping Your Workout- Working out is key in giving your skin a healthy glow by increasing blood flow which helps nourish skin cells throughout the whole body while also decreasing stress.
• Poor Diet- By not eating enough antioxidants, healthy fats, or by eating too many carbohydrates, you are taking away your body's ability to protect, nourish, moisturize and improve your skin!

Now it's time to just do it- whether it's your resolution or not, it's time to kick those bad habits to the curb. Your health, appearance and the sanity of your skin depend on it!
