Are you not always stressing about how to deal with the dullness of your skin? You might be going to all kinds of skin studios and getting all kinds of skin treatments but to no avail! Do you know why that happens? That is because you are not getting to the root of the actual problem.
The source of the problem is not external but internal. So how can you fight this problem externally? To give your skin that healthy glow the most effective step is to drink lots of water. Water cleanses your system by washing off all the toxic substance in your body. It helps in clearing bowels which when not effectively cleaned leads to an outburst of pimples and acne. Water keeps your body hydrated and does away with dullness and roughness of skin.
Doctors suggest at least 10 to 12 glasses of water everyday. Just drink the regular amount of water daily for ten days and you will see a difference in your skin.

Pregnancy is the time when one must exercise extreme caution and care to protect yours and your child’s health. Following are a few things that you should make sure you avoid doing to protect your child’s health.
You must never smoke or be around people who smoke as it may result in fetal deaths, abortion or pre-term births. Another thing to be avoided is having alcohol, as it could result in FAS (Fetal Alcohol Syndrome) which basically implies mental abnormalities and even retardation. Avoid illegal drugs to prevent your child being affected by physical damage like defects in the eyes, facial features, damage to the nervous system and more. Also avoid taking over the counter or prescription drugs, including aspirin, unless your doctor specifically allows you to.
Even if you are fond of hot-dogs, avoiding them during pregnancy is better, as some studies prove. Caffeine in your system should also be kept to a minimum or cut off completely. Also, electric blankets, X-rays, junk food, Vitamin A supplements and water beds should be avoided completely. Fumes from house paints and cleaning products, sauna, hot baths, cats, stress, herpes, microwaves, and the like are also harmful to your baby’s health.
