3 Simple Ways to Your Best Skin Yet in 2024

Are you in a constant battle with your skin, seeming like you're stuck in a never-ending cycle of hyperpigmentation, breakouts, dry patches, or dark spots?

 

Oh, we've been there, trust us, and let's be honest often times we  look into the mirror and compare our skin to the "perfect" "flawless" skin of our favorite content creators.

 

Let us debunk what we consider to be a skin myth: there is no perfect skin, there is only healthy skin. Healthy skin is glowing, properly hydrated, and moisturized and it is attainable for you, yes you! ✨

 

So hold onto your beauty blender, because 2024 could be your skin's turning point. Let us let you in on a little secret, it doesn't take a bank-breaking skincare routine, nor does it require the DNA of your family to have "perfect skincare genes". 🙄 Let's start with three simple methods to your best skin yet.

 

1. The Power of Hydration

 

 

First things first, let's talk hydration. We've all heard it but it's true, "Drink more water!" But why exactly is water the key foundation for healthy skin?

Unsurprisingly, it's all down to science. Our skin cells, just like the rest of our body, are made mostly of water, around 60% in adults to be exact.

Without enough hydration, our skin cells can't function well, leading to dull, dry, and sagging skin. And nope, your favorite cup of orange juice and tea does not supply your body with the necessary nutritional intake of water for hydration.

Now, how many glasses of water actually hydrates our bodies, and thus our skin? The answer often cited is eight, but our weight and activity level also plays a role. So, if you want to know how much water you should be drinking based on your personal lifestyle, don't worry we've linked it below for you. 💦

2. A Balanced Diet

Now, don't roll your eyes just yet. We are not saying you need to give up pizza Fridays, or your favorite sweet cheat treat. Moderation is really the key here, y'all.

Here's a Diet Hack for Better Skin:

Make sure your diet contains adequate amounts of fruits, vegetables, lean meats, and whole grains. Foods with omega-3 fatty acids such as fish and walnuts are also great options for your skin.

Antioxidants found in berries and dark chocolate give your skin a youthful glow. We always include potent antioxidants like Vitamin E in all of our skincare products for topical application, as well. So next time you're eyeing that blueberry muffin, remember – it's not just a sweet treat, it's skincare too.

3. Sleep: Your Skin's Bestfriend

Now this is one of our favorite subjects to discuss- rest. It may sound redundant, but let's be honest the last time you got enough rest and relaxed, do you remember how your skin felt?

We can probably bet you woke up with skin that was noticeably softer and that felt a tad more plump + energized.

The 3rd simple way to your best skin – sleep. Ahh, sleep, our best friend, and worst enemy. 💤  

So how does catching those Zs actually improve our skin? During sleep, our bodies repair themselves, replacing older cells with new ones. When we lose sleep, it messes with our skin's ability to properly regenerate. That's why after a sleepless night, our skin often looks as tired as we feel, and you may notice a dull, lackluster tone and even under eye bags becoming more pronounced.

The best rule here? Aim for seven to nine hours of sleep each night to ensure you wake up with refreshed, radiant skin.

Happy New Year! 

Skin care in 2024 is not about unpronounceable, synthetic ingredients in fancy bottles. It's about hydration, balanced diet, adequate sleep & of course, great skincare – four pillars of skin health. It’s time we return to the basics – to nature, to simplicity, to our bodies.
