Extract 4
Genetics play a big role in the way our skin develops, determining its color, pore concentration, thickness, even the number of veins and nerves situated in its deepest layer. Yet your skin s well - being not only depends on a really efficient , scientific skincare routine, but on a healthy lifestyle too. Getting enough sleep is important, for example because this is the time when skin works especially hard at repairing itself. Lack of it leaves skin looking dull. If you re suffering from insomnia, the chances are that stress is a significant factor. Whereas happiness makes skin glow, stress makes skin show the worst side of its nature. Spots, pimples, eczema, blotchiness and flakiness : these are just some of the stress

Luckily, one of the best ways of reducing stress is also very beneficial to skin : getting more exercise. Both aerobic exercise such as tennis, dancing , and jogging , and anaerobic exercise like stretching and yoga, are highly beneficial, because they improve circulation.

The problem can be as simple as a lack of vitamin C, which plays a vital role in collagen formation and cell repair. Although vitamin C is found in fresh fruit like melon, oranges, and even in tomatoes. the body cannot store it. Therefore, it needs regular supplies. Other important vitamins are the B group, especially B2 and B12 and
vitamin E, along with zinc. But vitamin and mineral supplements are not the complete answer. The best way to obtain a balanced mix of vitamins and minerals is to eat the freshest, most natural foods. A diet rich in unsaturated fats such as olive oil rather than butter, unprocessed fiber, raw fruit and vegetables and low - fat protein such as fish and chicken will provide everything your skin needs. If you can cut out caffeine. smoking and alcohol, so much the better. Do not forget to drink as much water as you can each day : six glasses at least. It helps every organ in your body function better, aiding digestion, circulation and even excretion of toxins through the skin s pores.
