1: Drink water.

Water cleanses your body, helping eliminate toxins. It also hydrates you and rids your skin of dirt and oils. Try to drink half your body weight in ounces.-- For example, if you weigh 100 lbs, drink 50 oz of water each day.

2: Use natural cleansers.

Facial cleansers with too many harsh chemicals can actually be harmful to your skin. Harsher chemicals have been known to strip paint off of walls and bleach certain fabrics. Using natural, organic cleansers will help your skin clear up faster and can be much more effective than unnatural cleansers.

3: Ensure a proper, nutritious diet.

Eat lots of fruits, nuts, seeds, beans etc. Eating healthy, along with taking in the right vitamins and micro-nutrients can do wonders for your skin. Try going vegan for a week to see what it does for you.

4: Wear less makeup.

Wearing too much makeup will be damaging for your skin in the long run. Chances are people don't notice skin breakouts when they first see you. If you have to wear makeup, use natural and mineral makeup only. I know what your thinking. I skipped this step but if you really wanna do it, go for it.

5: Don't stay in the sun for too long.

Try to limit your exposure to the sun during the middle of the day (10:00 AM - 2:00 PM). If you must be in the sun for extended periods, be sure to wear protection. A wide-brimmed hat is best. Sunlight on your skin is a great source of vitamin D, but it it can also lead to wrinkles and skin cancer. Remember to use natural sun screen, 15 SPF or higher.

6: Exercise at least 15 minutes a day.

Exercising properly can make your skin glow. Be sure to wash your face after your exercise routine: Sweat and dirt can clog your pores.

7: Be sure to wash your face properly.

Wash two or three times a day with a face wash and, sparingly, follow-up with toner applied directly to the affected areas. When washing your face, especially when washing off make-up, splash on cold water first as it helps to tighten the pores. Then apply cleanser or mild soap and rinse with warm water. Follow with a quick cold water splash. Warm water opens the pores of your skin, exposing your face to a build-up of bacteria, dirt and make-up. Open pores let foreign matter into your body where it can sit close to the surface or be absorbed deeper into the pores. If your face is not washed properly, the foreign matter-- dirt, oil and bacteria-- can get smudged across your skin during washing process. Improper washing way only spreads the germs and does not effectively eliminate unwanted dirt and build-up. Splashing the face first with cold water contracts the pores, sealing them off from further contamination, thus facilitating the complete removal of dirt and build-up without contributing to the spreading of dirt and bacteria. Rinsing with cold water after washing tightens the pores to seal them off from further exposure.
