1. Perfect Skin Regimen: Always wash your face before bed, or the dirt and oil will get into pores and cause zits.

2. Keep your hands off your face.

3. Apply moisturizer only where you’re dry. Choose a non-comedogenic formula (won’t clog pores).

4. Wear oil-free make-ups.

5. Eat protein (like salmon or tofu) and nutrient-rich green veggies everyday. And the vitamin C in citrus can actually help pimples heal faster.

6. Water works! At least eight cups of water a day and more if you exercise, it helps detoxify and hydrate your skin from inside out.

7. Aside from water, juice from apples, carrots, cucumbers and pineapple are also recommended.

8.  Avoid cigarettes! When you take a puff, the nicotine constricts blood vessels, slowing the flow of oxygen and blood your skin needs to be healthy.

9. Getting plenty of beauty sleep, about eight hours is ideal for most people.

10. Change pillow case often.
