Do you ever look in the mirror and feel like your skin could use a little more glow? Uneven skin tone, dry parts, blemishes, and breakouts. Where do those all come? Is glowing skin just about skincare?
Let's dive deep into overall skin health together. Here are four essential keys to reaching healthy, glowing skin.
1. Nourish and Hydrate Your Body from the Inside!
You need to learn how to nourish your skin from the inside first! As long as you eat junk food or fast food, nobody can help you. So, one of the vital issues for glowing skin is eating clean and healthy.
Make sure you have fresh salad greens on your plate every meal. In addition, eat plenty of seasonal veggies and fruits. A balanced diet with fruits and vegetables will help protect your skin's cellular damage and cleanse toxins.
Especially foods rich in minerals such as zinc and potassium are significant for balanced skin. In addition, beta-carotene, lutein, selenium, and zinc are essential for healthy skin cell development, help skin rejuvenation, and combat uneven skin tone.
Drinking water is vital for optimal body health. It also helps nutrients reach the skin through proper blood flow. Our skin has three layers — the outer layer (epidermis), the underlying skin (dermis), and the subcutaneous tissue. If the epidermis doesn't contain enough water, our skin will lose elasticity and feel dry.
Lack of hydration may cause dryness, breakouts and uneven skin tone. Drinking enough water is also very important to clean your body and eliminate toxins.
2. Move and try to get sweaty!
Healthy blood and lymphatic circulation are necessary for optimal body and skin health.
Movement is one of the critical steps to healthy blood and lymphatic circulation. Getting sweat also helps our skin filter toxins out of the body, boosting our immune system.
Don't be a perfectionist. Just start and do what you can do. Do you like walking with your dog? Do it; do it consistently. Do you like yoga? Just do it even 5 to 10 minutes better than nothing. Regular exercise and moving will help your body's circulation and eliminate toxins.
