THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT SKIN HYDRATION

Human skin is affected by environmental factors all year long, so skincare is just as important in warm weather as during cold autumn and winter months. You need to hydrate on the surface and from within, at the same time.

Our skin shields us from extreme weather conditions, chemicals, injuries, pollution and bacteria, but while protection is a natural feature of this organ, it also needs to be taken care of in order to function properly. Therefore, skincare is not only important to preserve looks but also to stay healthy.

The significance of a personalized skincare routine

A daily facial skincare routine is extremely important, as skin needs pampering each morning and evening to stay youthful and pretty. In order to create an effective routine, you need to be familiar with your own skin type. We recommend asking a professional aesthetician about which products you should use, and what works best for you. At BeautyPest Inc., we can help you with product selection and offer you custom treatments.

Does beauty actually come from within?

We are all familiar with the saying that „beauty comes from within”, which is true, as one’s lifestyle can have major effects on the state of their skin. However, being conscious about proper nourishment gets you one step closer to beauty. Try consuming more protein, such as poultry, fish, eggs and low-fat dairy, as they boost your collagen levels and keep your skin firm, smooth and elastic; while omega-3 fatty acids – found in saltwater fish and nuts – will reduce inflammation in your entire body.

A daily intake of fresh fruits and vegetables is also a must, and now that it’s springtime, they are available everywhere. Fresh, raw foods full of antioxidants will balance out the ageing and cell damaging effects of free radicals. Also, don’t forget consuming enough liquids! If your body is deprived of water, you become thirsty, your skin tone turns dull, dry and wrinkly, no matter how much you moisturize. Staying hydrated will keep your skin beautiful.

Nowhere without SPF!

The best advice we can give is never to leave home without SPF, and start each day with applying it. Besides protecting your skin, if used on a regular basis, it can also prevent wrinkles, lines, hyperpigmentation and dehydration.
