How To Get Naturally Glowing Skin: #1: Let Your Skin Glow From Inside Out
We continuously underestimate the power our lifestyle holds over our skin. Think about it —
drink less water and our skin gets dry, eat a lot of junk and get puffy skin, stress out and deal
with acne breakouts, exercise and get the glow. We like to put a lot of effort into curative
skincare which is great. Keep it going! However, there’s a lack of preventive lifestyle measures
that we do for our skin. We are here to put an end to that.
In order to get you started on that, here are some lifestyle tips on how to get naturally glowing
skin:
#1: Let Your Skin Glow from Inside Out
What you put into your body is as important as what you put on your body. Here are several
universally-recognised nutrients and vitamins for healthy skin, and few of their common sources:
Vitamin A: Butter, eggs, and cream
Vitamin C: Broccoli, citrus fruits and spinach
Omega-3 fatty acids: Chia seeds and walnuts
Biotin: Yeast, dairy and avocados
Silica: Oats, cucumber and onions
Vitamin K12: Broccoli, fish, and eggs
Probiotics: Yogurt and kefir
Vitamin E: Sunflower seeds, almonds, and spinach
So, make your way to the supermarket, stock up on these ingredients, and be.amazed!
#2: Water is Your New Best Friend
We simply can’t stress on this one enough – it is easily one of the most effective healthy skin
care tips. Think about how you feel weak and sluggish when dehydrated. The skin is the largest
part of your body and feels the exact same way.
Water hydrates the skin and delivers essential nutrients to the skin cells. Furthermore, in addition
to the twin benefit of bringing elasticity to skin texture and replenishing skin tissue, water also
helps in delaying the visibility of ageing signs like fine lines and wrinkles.
It truly is a powerhouse. So, set reminders, stick post-it notes, or accessorise your work desk with
fancy water bottles!
#3: Don't Stress It
There's a reason why stress acne is called 'stress acne’. Stress brings about the rush of a hormone
called cortisol. Cortisol triggers your oil glands to produce more oil which makes your skin
more prone to acne and other skin problems.
While there are multiple ways to tackle stress, try finding out what’s causing it in the first place.
Sometimes, it might be more than just a stressful job or relationship.
Find someone you can really open up to. It might be your mother, your sister, or a friend, a
mentor, a therapist.
#5: Sweat it Out
Exercising helps in lifting up the face, increasing blood circulation for healthy and glowing skin,
and flushing out toxins from the body. It also helps nourish skin cells, keeping them vital.
Note: If you are suffering from any dermatological conditions such as acne, rosacea, or psoriasis,
you might want to talk to your dermatologist before hitting that track!
