4 Ways Cold Weather Can Benefit Your Skin

Often times when we think winter, we think cracked hands, dry skin, basically all the unsavory skin conditions that the cold inflicts on us. But, since there are many more months of cold weather ahead, we have looked into some of the perks of freezing temperatures. Here are 5 ways that the cold actually helps your skin!

1. Helps Keep Pores Clog-free.

The great news is that the cold weather helps reduce and keeps pores less visible and refined. Acting as a sort of tonic or astringent. the cold weather slows down the secretion of sebum which reduces acne and keeps the shine away.

2. It Can Improve your Sleep.

Getting a full night’s rest is necessary for skin health and wellness, from reducing under eye circles to keeping your skin glowing. High heat during the nighttime is proven to disturb sleep whereas the cold supports the body’s natural temperature drop during sleep. Research shows the colder the temperature in the room, the better sleep you will have.

3. It Can Reduce Puffiness

The cold promotes blood circulation in both the body and the face, which reduces inflammation and swelling!

4. It Can Help With Anti-Aging.
The cold enhances your complexion and rejuvenates your skin. It also slows down the aging process—think of cryotherapy spa treatments or splashing cold water on your face in the morning—and keeps skin tight and vibrant.

3 Foods to Avoid on a Clear Skin Diet

Keeping your skin clear can be a challenge. Between weather changes, stress management, and hormones, maintaining clear skin can sometimes feel impossible. What if we told you there was something you could do to better control the clarity of your skin? Well, you are in luck because your diet is a major influence on your skin. Here are 5 acne causing foods to steer clear from this fall.

Dairy

Dairy products are the biggest culprits when it comes to causing acne. If you are breaking out on your neck, chin or jawline, chances are your intake of dairy is to blame. Why dairy? Dairy products increase your body’s release of insulin and other growth hormones.

Bananas

Sugar, in general, is not good for clear skin and bananas are especially high in sugar. Too much sugar leads to inflammation of the skin which often leads to acne and redness. People who remove sugar from their diet oftentimes see a difference in their skin in just one week.

French Fries

The notion that greasy foods cause acne used to be just a myth. However, studies have proven that greasy foods are a direct connection to acne. French fries have a glycemic index of 75 which means it has the ability to drastically change your body’s blood sugar. Elevated blood sugar increases insulin which increases excess oil and skin cell production and leads to clogged pores and breakouts. In addition, the high presence of salt dehydrates your skin.

The cleaner the diet, the clearer your skin will be. To feel great on the inside and outside, avoid these three foods. For more information on ways to keep your skin clean and clear, contact us at Forever Young Body Clinic. Book an appointment with one of our skin care specialists today.

3 Ways To Add Pumpkin To Your Skin Care Routine

The transition from the summer heat to brisk fall weather can certainly take a toll on your skin. Although stocking up on a quality moisturizer is beneficial, the key to keeping your skin fresh and healthy may be sitting in your backyard. Autumn is the best time to take advantage of pumpkin and its skincare benefits.

Pumpkins offer the benefits like:

• Help promote cell turnover
• Brightens & smooths skin
• Is a natural source of zinc which fights acne
• High in fatty acids and vitamin E

Regardless of the skin type you have, pumpkin-based products can help! Here are a few ways to incorporating pumpkin into your fall skincare routine:

1. Pumpkin Spice Body Scrub

Everyone needs a good exfoliant! They are great for getting rid of dry, dead skin and can help bring back a natural glow. However, it is important to moisturize after any scrub.  If you don’t have a moisturizer, simply add a few teaspoons of rich plant oil to your Pumpkin Spice scrub recipe.

• 1 cup sugar
• 1 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/4 cup organic canned pumpkin (or homemade pumpkin puree)
• Mix sugar, nutmeg, and cinnamon together. Mix with pumpkin. Apply to skin and scrub in a circular motion, and rinse.

2. Pumpkin Puree Moisturizer

This moisturizer should be made in small batches because it will get moldy if left unused. It should be stored in the fridge

In a large bowl mix:

• 1/2 cup canned pumpkin
• 1/2 cup coconut oil
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Store in the fridge and use just like a regular moisturizer!

3. Pumpkin Flesh Facial

It sounds a bit odd, but you can toss pumpkin puree right onto your skin and leave it be for several minutes and be doing some good for your skin.

If you have a little more time, try this facial:

• 2 tablespoons of canned pumpkin (puréed)
• 1 tablespoon of soy yogurt or ¼ teaspoon of soy milk
• ½ teaspoon of brown sugar
• ¼ teaspoon cranberry juice or
• ½ teaspoon oatmeal

Since autumn is the season of pumpkin, put it to good use! Try these DIY seasonal skin care treatments and let us know how you like them.

DIY Beauty Hacks To Try This Weekend

The weekends are for relaxing and making time for a little TLC. While you’re enjoying your a few days away from the realities of the work week, we have a few fun and luxurious beauty tips that are sure to brighten up your weekend and your complexion. These weekend beauty tips are just a few from our list of DIY favorites.

Make Your Skin Glow: On Sunday night, mix a pinch of turmeric with 2 tablespoons of honey in a small cup. The combination of the turmeric and honey will create a paste that will be applied like a facial mask. Apply the mixture to your face and neck to stimulate blood flow, draw out toxins, lighten dark spots, and kill bacteria. Leave the mixture on your face for 15 minutes for radiant skin all week!

Say Goodbye to Dark Circles: Look for an eye treatment that contains caffeine and keep it in the fridge until you are ready to use it. Cold temperatures (or anything cold for that matter) constrict blood vessels and is simply perfect for reducing under-eye puffiness. Then, the caffeine detoxifies the skin under your eyes and breaks up any baggage. Lightly dab the cream onto your under-eye area as soon as you get out of bed Saturday and Sunday to look more awake on Monday.

Enjoy your weekend but head into the upcoming work week feeling like a glowing goddess. Spent a few moments this weekend caring for and loving yourself.  If you need a little extra something for your skin, book an appointment with us! We offer amazing facials, spray tans and so much more.
