Spring has arrived, and it’s time to shed those layers and expose some skin! Is your skin in top condition and ready to withstand all the extra attention? If it’s looking tired and sallow after a long, hard winter, don’t despair. Here are some tips for getting a healthy, all-over glow:
Eat your veggies: A recent study suggests that eating lots of carotenoid fruits and vegetables, such as carrots, tomatoes, figs and cranberries, gives your skin a sunny, healthy glow that is more appealing than a suntan. The study had people rate the two types of facial color, and found that most people preferred the color created by a healthy diet than that created by tanning. Carotenoids are powerful antioxidants that boost your immune function and help your body fight off disease and deterioration.
Stay hydrated: Without proper hydration, your skin can become dull and lose elasticity. Poor hydration will also emphasize fine lines. Make sure you stay properly hydrated, inside and out. Try to drink at least eight glasses of water per day, and make those eight glasses really count by drinking high-quality purified, ionized water from your Alkal-Life system. Pure alkaline water will absorb into your body and skin more completely, and deliver powerful antioxidant effects why rehydrating.
Cleanse and tone: After a long winter of cold, sunless days, your skin needs a wake-up call. Try the Rejuvena ultrasonic treatment to deep-cleanse and tone dry, sagging, lifeless skin. Rejuvena uses an ultrasonic vibration of 30,000 volts per second to penetrate the skin’s upper layers and deliver stimulation that improves circulation, tautens the facial muscles and acts to slough off dull, dry skin and impurities.
The foundation of clear, glowing skin is a healthy, hydrated body. By eating a healthy diet rich in antioxidants, drinking lots of pure, ionized water, and treating yourself to a stimulating ultrasonic facial treatment, you’ll be ready to reveal fresh, revitalized skin this spring.
