Beautiful and healthy skin while you sleep, garnished with water, vitamins and enzymes.
The skin is an important factor in our well-being. In addition, the appearance of the skin says a lot about the condition of the body, for example whether it lacks vitamins. Skin care can be very simple. Here are 10 tips for beautiful and healthy skin.
Tip 1: The right cleaning
The be-all and end-all of beautiful skin is proper cleansing and care. Dirt, dust, sweat, skin oils, sebum and also make-up should be removed daily so that the pores remain free and bacteria do not multiply.
For this, however, a "cat wash" with water is not enough, as only water-soluble substances are removed. An essential factor of skin cleansing is the removal of sebum. Bacteria are also bound in sebum, which should definitely be removed. This applies all the more to oily skin and skin with a tendency to impurities. It is recommended to use a facial toner.
Tip 2: Beauty sleep
Many people think there is nothing to the term "beauty sleep", but everyone knows it: one night with little sleep and the skin already looks pale and lifeless. This is because a lot of growth hormones are released, especially in the deep sleep phase, which also cause the skin cells to regenerate. On average, 7 to 8 hours is the optimal length of sleep so that the skin can recover optimally.
Tip 3: Healthy food for healthy skin
In order to do something good for one's skin, a lot of fruit and vegetables should be on the menu, as they provide the body with many trace minerals, important vitamins and antioxidants. These things ensure fine skin and prevent wrinkles from forming. Vitamin C is of great importance because it tightens the connective tissue. Among other things, citrus fruits and rose hips contain a lot of this vitamin. Vitamin E is responsible for delaying skin ageing and can be found in nuts, for example.
Vitamin A prevents dry and flaky skin.
Tip 4: Water - The underestimated cosmetic
Did you also know that water is the beauty secret of most beauty idealists? Drink at least 2 - 3 litres of water daily and after a period of only a few days you will notice an improvement in your skin's radiance.
If the body lacks water, the skin immediately reacts by losing elasticity. A lack of water over a longer period of time worsens the skin's ability to defend itself. Gradually, the top layer of the skin, the epidermis, changes, the skin becomes cracked and rough. And soon the first wrinkles are visible.
In addition, water revitalises the skin's appearance. Water is also absorbed by the skin, e.g. up to half a litre when showering.
Tip 5: Facial massage
A facial massage is a simple but effective beauty remedy. On the one hand, such a massage calms and counteracts stress, on the other hand, the skin is well supplied with blood and looks healthy and rosy.
The simplest facial massage is to stroke the skin with the fingertips. For tiredness, it helps to tap different parts of the face with your fingers.
Tip 6: Peeling
Peeling removes dandruff and sebum deposits. The skin is well supplied with blood again and gets a rosy colour.
Tip 7: Avoid alcohol and nicotine
Alcohol causes the body, and thus also the skin, to be dehydrated and cells that are responsible for detoxification to be damaged. The result is sallow, unhealthy-looking skin.
Nicotine leads to vasoconstriction and thus not only puts a strain on the heart and circulation, but also prevents adequate blood circulation to the skin.
Tip 8: Use sunscreen
Sun rays damage the skin, causing rapid ageing, pigmentation spots and, in the worst case, skin cancer. Therefore, it is more than sensible to use products with high UV protection, especially when exposed to the sun. Long and intensive sunbathing and visits to solariums should be avoided in order not to harm the skin.
Tip 9: Avoid "overfeeding
There is also some truth to the saying "less is more" when it comes to healthy skin. Too many substances can cause the skin to react irritably and several different ingredients are not necessarily coordinated and thus lose their effectiveness. If you apply too many creams and the like, it could lead to clogging of the pores.
Tip 10: Fresh air revitalises the skin
Fresh air is not only helpful for the mind, but also for beautiful skin. Oxygen is absorbed not only by the lungs but also by the skin, the cells can renew themselves and you get a fresh complexion.
