How to Get Really Gorgeous Skin

You can fix age spots, stretch marks, varicose veins, and other unsightly spots. Here’s how.

Smooth tough areas
“Moisturizers with high concentrations of urea are great for rough elbows, knees, and feet. Urea works to pull moisture into the skin while also breaking down dry, scaly spots.” —Amy Wechsler, MD, assistant clinical professor of dermatology at the State University of New York Downstate Medical Center

Try: Bioelements Calmitude Sensitive Skin Moisturizer ($35).

Hydrate from within
“One of the reasons young skin looks so smooth is because its cells are strong and retain water well, preventing dehydration. To improve the health of your skin, try taking glucosamine supplements—they boost the production of water-binding hyaluronic acid in the skin—and omega-3 fatty acid supplements.” —Howard Murad, MD, associate clinical professor of dermatology at the University of California, Los Angeles
