“The skin on the scalp, needs the same amount of care, as the skin elsewhere on the body”.
While there is something to be said for aging gracefully, many of us wish that we could find the ‘Fountain of Youth’ when it comes to caring for our skin and hair. Shiny, healthy hair and clear, radiant, supple skin have long been associated with good health, attractiveness, success, self-confidence and overall well-being. The good news is; it is never too soon nor too late to start an anti aging regimen. Here are some useful tips you can add to your routine:Scrub a Dub – Dub: Light exfoliation at least once a week, polishes the skin, minimizes dullness and acne, and helps to give a radiant glow.
Beauty Sleep: During sleep, our skin replenishes itself. Sufficient sleep reduces Cortisol, a stress hormone which is the main culprit in acne flare-ups. Sleepless nights can also cause skin to look dull, irritated, and create dark under-eye circles that would make a Amy Winehouse envious. Getting at least 6-8 hours sleep at night, can improve your complexion and skin tone, and make for a more rested and healthy appearance.
Vitamin Cute: A good vitamin regimen contributes to overall health, cell turnover, better skin, hair and nails; as they give the needed boost of nutrients that we may not be getting in our daily diet.
Night Creams & Serums: Night creams contain slow-release compounds, that replenish the skin’s elasticity and moisture, and repair the skin’s cells. Facial serums which have become even more popular lately incorporate the power of concentrated acids (such as Salicylic, Glycolic, Lactic) in addition to retinoids and other powerful ingredients to repair, and chemically resurface the skin at a deeper level.
Eat Healthy: Being mindful of the type of foods we eat, will contribute to a key part of our anti aging regimen. Increasing our intake of antioxidant and nutrient rich foods such as nuts, fish, leafy greens, fruits, and healthy oils will contribute to more youthful, supple radiant skin.
