A lot is written about skin care. All the time. What is good, what is bad and what works? From our point of view, holistic skin care is the way forward - remembering that the skin often reflects how you and your body feel. That you can help it on its way with the right skin care products, nutritional supplements and food. What will YOU focus on in 2020 when it comes to yourself and your skin?
We have created a 2020 skin care guide that easily takes you through the skin care tricks that are good to know.
When the skin bears the mark of sugar, alcohol and Christmas stress
It's no secret that the month of December can be hard on body and soul. Completion of projects at study/work before the Christmas holidays combined with a host of events and parties with lovely food, alcohol and sweets. And if you eat fairly sensibly on a daily basis, it can quickly cause challenges for the skin when it tries to get rid of waste products - often through the skin in the form of blackheads, acne and eczema.
White January
In recent years, more and more people have avoided alcohol in the month of January in an attempt to let the body rest under the name "white January". We believe more in a balanced intake all year round, but if you're up for a challenge, give it a try. After all, you can choose whether you want to give up alcohol, sugar, wheat or something completely different during January. Either way, the body can benefit from a bit of rest after a hectic December.
Top up with the good nutritional supplements
Another thing that can support your body - and your skin, is food supplements. In our view, they help to provide all the good vitamins and minerals that you may be deficient in. Organic oils, multivitamins, hyaluronic acid, lactic acid bacteria and collagen all help to support your skin and make it look even more healthy and vital. Several manufacturers also make tablets that specifically boost the skin, hair and nails.
Cleanse and exfoliate your skin
As a really good 2020 skin care routine, you must clean the skin well in the morning and evening, but also more thoroughly 1-2 times a week. Some prefer a scrub that cleans the surface of the skin. We recommend one clean with enzyme peeling , which creates small channels down to the subcutaneous tissue, which can therefore better accept the subsequent product in the form of serum, oil or day cream. In this way, you get all the good things like with a scrub, but you also get just the extra in the form of the channels that open down to the subcutaneous tissue, where products otherwise have difficulty penetrating.
Move
Movement is not only good for the skin. It is actually good for everything - bones, muscles, joints, blood circulation and not least your mood. Get the blood circulating with running, yoga, boxing, reforms or a brisk walk. It all counts.
Beauty tools
2019 was full of inspiring articles and posts about beauty tools. And the hype around beauty tools doesn't stop in 2020 - whether you're into face rollers or the slightly more advanced gua sha stones, it's an excellent routine to incorporate into your 2020 skin care. You get to strengthen your connective tissue, microcirculation, blood circulation and the cell tissue in the skin. And you will quickly be able to see the difference in your skin before and after using beauty tools. There is simply more flow in the skin and you can see it!
And we hope you have the most wonderful year!
