You probably know that your skin is your largest organ? So what is the best way to care for it? Perhaps you are dizzy from the thousands of different products all claiming to know what it best for your beautiful skin. Since our skin protects us & keeps us so lovely we thought it was important to look at what your skin really wants and needs.
Often, it is easy to overlook the importance of our skin. Our skin is incredibly important as it offers us protection from the outside world, while still absorbing important nutrient and vitamins from the environment. For these reasons it is very important to look after our skin. Here are some easy tips to keep you looking youthful & your skin healthy.
- Reduce Stress
Stress is something that over times causes wear and tear on the body. This goes for the skin as well as other organs. When trying to improve the state of your skin it is important to try and eliminate unnecessary forms of stress. Stress can trigger breakouts, hives and even rashes. Chronic stress over time leads to worry lines on the face. This can be easily combatted by practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, self-hypnosis & mindfulness. Studies have shown that breathing consciously, 10 breaths in the morning and 10 at night, works to reduce the emergence of wrinkles.
- Healthy Diet
Diet is one of the most important contributors towards our state of health. What goes in our bodies is reflected on the surface of our skin. When considering diet, it is important to eat a variety of foods which will nurture and sustain your skin with a variety of vitamins and minerals. In addition, be on the lookout for foods high in oils or fats. These foods are absorbed by the body, but excess amounts will be stored as fat in cells, or be excreted through the pores of the skin. When pores are blocked or damaged, then the excess oil will pool within the skin and skin problems will result. By changing your diet to eat foods with little or no oils, fats, or sugars, your skin will reflect your internal health.
- Hydrate
Often many people do not relate a healthy state of hydration with healthful and youthful skin. Water is something that helps our body, particularly our skin, stay supple and malleable. When we are dehydrated, over time our skin loses its tightness. This may even cause the skin to become dry and cracked in certain places. Moisturizing with natural organic products as well as consuming higher quantities of water will reverse this effect. Try drinking a minimum of six glasses of water a day in order to hydrate yourself completely.
Mother nature is best when cleansing, moisturizing & applying products to your skin. After all what goes on you is also processed in you. Why not choose natural oils & products such as olive & ricebran oils, organic essential oils & clay’s that support your immune system?
