PICTURE: PEXELS/ GLOWING SKIN
One moment you’re glowing, refreshed, and the next moment you’re wondering why your face feels like it’s stuck in airplane mode.
The truth is when life becomes too much, our glow is sometimes the first thing to disappear from the conversation and it is easy to attribute this on the weather, stress, or the three extremely strong coffees you had before 10am which can result to your vibe being off, not just your skin.
However, it is not something that is impossible to fix. It just means your body and mind are craving a reset, a little care, a little slowness, and a little less autopilot.
Skintitut claims that both internal (such as skin cell accumulation or hastened aging) and environmental (such as UV exposure, pollution, dehydration, poor circulation, poor meals, or sleep deprivation) factors can contribute to dullness. It can be beneficial to manage these triggers and keep up a good skincare regimen.
According to Fadeout, drinking enough water, getting 8 hours of sleep, exercising frequently, eating a balanced diet full of fruits, vegetables, healthy fats, and lean proteins, and using sunscreen every day are all crucial for having healthy, beautiful skin.
Hydration is essential for preserving the suppleness of the skin and avoiding dryness. A balanced diet high in omega-3 fatty acids, limiting processed foods and sugar, and exercise can all assist to enhance circulation. Protect your skin with a broad-spectrum SPF of at least 30 every day to avoid pigmentation, fine wrinkles, and sunspots, as sun exposure is a major contributor to dull skin, the above website further highlights.
