Spring Time Cleanse
With spring setting in, there are changes not just in the environment surrounding you, but also within your body. This is the time when your body is adapting itself to the changing temperatures, gearing up for the summer. As such, what you eat and how you take care of your skin and hair play an important role for your overall well-being. It is commonly advised by experts to follow a light diet during this time, include immunity-boosting foods as well as those that will help you detoxify your system. Springtime also makes people more susceptible to allergies since the process of pollination is in full swing, and pollen grains are everywhere in the air.
To maintain good, healthy skin, you must remember that ‘pH level’ has a crucial role to play. “Your skin has a thin protective layer called the acid mantle, which is made up of amino and lactic acids that mix easily with fatty acids (oils) from the sebaceous glands. These glands secrete oil that protects your skin. When you wash your face with soap, you wash away not only the dirt that’s clogging your pores but also the oil that protects it, leaving it dry and vulnerable to problems, This is why a regular routine of cleansing, toning and moisturising is important, apart from maintaining a balanced diet. And there’s nothing better than going the natural route to take care of your skin.
