Skin Detoxing: 7 Facts To Know About This Bonafide Trend
Sometimes you get so busy with life that you forget some self-care for your body and skin. The skin is the largest organ in the body holding in place and protecting all the other organs from harm. Like any other organ, the skin tires from its work and needs some rejuvenation once in a while. Every day, you want to wake up with fresh, relaxed and soft skin. Sometimes this may not be the case. You will experience a rash, a dry skin, uneven tone, a sensitive skin, a sagging skin, dark circles on the eyes or an acne breakout.
The following are causes of dull skin with uneven complexion;

Diet
An unbalanced diet will not supplement your body with the nutrients it needs. The overall effect will be seen on the skin because it doesn’t get the minerals it needs as antioxidants. Processed sugars are one of the culprits to skin breakouts and acne. Consumption of excess processed sugars will lead to inflammation of the skin.
Lifestyle
Excessive alcohol consumption and smoking of cigarettes bring a long-term effect on the skin. The alcohol deposits in the kidney slowly reduce the ability of the kidneys to flush out toxins in the body. When this happens, you start experiencing breakouts on the skin.
Hydration
Water consumption is essential to your body. If you don’t drink enough water the kidneys are not able to properly flush out the toxins in the body. There is too much acid in your body, and this ends up causing dry and sensitive skin.
Clogging Of Pores
The pores help the skin to breathe and excrete toxins in terms of sweat. Sometimes, especially after a long day, you forget and sleep on your makeup. Makeup and oils block the pores that are supposed to be the breathing point of the skin. This leads to skin dehydration and breakout.
Stress levels
Stress lowers the rate at which the body functions. It also increases the sebum in the blood and eventually starts to show up in your skin. Redness and inflammation on the skin is a result of stress.
Pollution
The air is filled up with pollutants which in one way or the other will get in contact with your skin. Harsh chemicals and excess ultraviolet light will cause abrasion of the skin, which reduces the protective gear. Your skin finally breaks out.
Neglect
Your work possibly takes the most of your time such that you forget a regular visit to the hairdresser & beauty salon. This is the place where all your skincare problems are taken care of. If you go for a long while without giving some attention to your skin, then the next thing fighting skin breakout, acne, pimples and black spots.
If you are going through such an experience, then you need to give your skin a break and detox. There are several ways you can use to remove the toxins on your skin including:
Balanced diet
A health meal full of vitamins, proteins and antioxidants will do better to the skin. Do you want glowing skin? Then you have to watch what you put on your plate. Stay away from junk foods and stick to more vegetables and fruits. Water should be incorporated into your healthy meals to ensure that your skin is properly dehydrated.
Skincare
Your skin is something you should clean thoroughly. Start by exfoliating to remove all the flakes in the skin and then cleansing. This means that you should invest in a good cleanser to help you remove the dirt that recollects on your skin during the day. Cleansing should be a daily routine, especially for those who use makeup. Skin therapists will recommend that using double cleansers is better and advice that it is important to know your skin type as you purchase a cleanser. Use a good toner after the cleansing process.
Lifestyle
Maintain a healthy lifestyle. Cut down on processed sugars, keep off from alcohol, and do regular exercises. The skin releases impurities and toxins from the body through its pores in the form of sweat. This helps the body keep fit and the skin glowing. Reducing stress levels and having enough sleep will also help you in the skin detoxification.
Stay off harsh chemicals.
Soaps have chemicals that reduce the oils in the skin. Avoid many chemicals and long hot baths on your skin.
Facial treatments
There are good facial treatments in the market that will help you rejuvenate your skin. However, there are still treatments you can make and use at home. A good example is an egg and honey treatment. Honey is rich in natural antioxidants, and eggs help soften your skin.
Bottom line
Having a smooth young-looking skin is something everybody would want. Watch out for when your skin wants a detox and have some time for it. Detoxifying will help your skin get rid of all the toxins and impurities on the skin.
