Keeping your skin radiant is important… especially if you want to look 20 instead of 50. There is the obvious way to prevent your skin from getting damaged and drastically aging: drinking a lot of water, staying out of the sun, eating well and getting sufficient rest. But, in order to fight the skin battle with full force, there are a couple products that are useful to have.

I think everyone likes the way their skin feels after a 10 minute sauna session, but it's not always practical and convenient to get to one. The Conair Facial Sauna System is a compact sauna you can take anywhere. It's a small feather-light mister that will open up your pores in order to perfectly clean and freshen the skin. The moisturizing mister includes a facial tool with two attachments: a rotating brush to exfoliate the skin and a sponge to apply moisturizer. The attachments don't necessarily need to be used, but they are nice to have just in case. The little sauna system is a quick and efficient way to open the pores, and get the skin prepped for an at-home mini facial. Its nice to save $100, and avoid leaving home.

The sauna system will freshen up the skin, making it super smooth. To take full advantage of your refreshed skin, it's a smart idea to apply a mask on the face and neck. An amazing and affordable one is the Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque. This mask helps dry up acne and rinse away the dead skin, resulting in tighter, smaller pored looking skin. Being mint, the mask will also smell and feel very refreshing.

For those of you who require, or are looking for, a daily skin routine I recommend the great working Neutrogena Complete Acne Therapy System. The pack comes with three tubes of skin treatment. One of them is an oil-free day lotion, the second tube is a skin polishing cleanser that contains Salicylic Acid and Benzoyl Peroxide, and the last product is a miracle-working skin therapy package for night time. All three products are there to help with any skin blemishes, and will show results after four days of usage. If you order soon there is a $5 off promo code offer (use promo code NTRGDSCT).

You can get shiny healthy skin without emptying your wallet!
