Youthful, healthy, radiant skin is the dream of every woman. Not only in summer, but especially now with autumn coming, when skin is exposed to all sorts of outside influences, it is lovely to create habits that add to its beauty. A healthy, balanced diet, drinking enough water and getting enough sleep, together with the right skincare, can work wonders. If you are still looking for the right way to care for your skin and cannot quite find it, here are a few steps for giving it only the very best.
The foundation of skincare - a healthy diet and drinking enough
The foundation of skincare - a healthy diet and drinking enough. Perhaps it feels a little tiresome to hear from all sides how important a varied diet and drinking enough are for beauty and overall health, yet there is some truth in it. What we drink shows not only in how our organs feel inside, but above all in the state of your skin. The more dehydrated you are, the duller your skin looks and the more it tends towards wrinkles. So if the look of your skin, your face and your whole body truly matters to you, do treat yourself to plenty of fluids. The same goes for a balanced diet, which should be rich in vitamins and minerals. We find these in fruit, vegetables, nuts and fish. Vitamin A is found, for example, in mackerel, salmon, milk, cheese or liver. Spinach, tomatoes, broccoli, rocket, chard or carrots contain beta-carotene, which the body then turns into vitamin A. Vitamin E from nuts, wholegrain products and cold-pressed oils strengthens connective tissue, protects cell membranes, helps with the effects of UV radiation and reduces moisture loss. And vitamin C is important for forming collagen, it firms the skin and softens wrinkles. Kiwi, grapefruit, broccoli, berries and red pepper are high in this vitamin. And do not forget good sleep, because well-rested skin is a truly essential step towards radiant skin
Towards beautiful skin with the right care
The right skincare, and truly as an everyday ritual, is the foundation. If you make these few steps into a daily ritual, trust that your skin will thank you and you will see the first lovely changes. The first thing to do for your skin is thorough cleansing, morning and evening. If cleansing your skin in the morning seems unnecessary because you cleansed it in the evening, keep in mind that skin goes through a self-cleansing and renewing process during the night, and traces of that can be on your skin in the morning. So in the morning skin wants to be washed not only with clean water - you can also reach for natural hydrophilic oils such as Zuzička or the Deep cleansing balms. These products emulsify beautifully with water on the skin and cleanse it thoroughly. Only clean skin can take in the precious substances and nutrients from facial serums and creams. The second step is toning. Facial toners and floral waters bring the skin back to a healthy pH, moisturise it and prepare it to take in what facial serums and creams have to offer. The Bathoryčka anti-age facial toner is enriched with green tea hydro-extract, an exceptional antioxidant with a soothing quality. It also holds ginseng hydro-extract in its composition and supports the skin in forming collagen right from the toning step.
Facial serums and creams
Using facial creams is something not to leave out with any skin type, whether it is oily, blemish-prone or combination. Facial creams contain beneficial substances that help the skin replenish the minerals, vitamins and active ingredients it needs to renew and rejuvenate. Skincare is simpler with the right preparations. The ŠTRAMANDA edition, which holds a very unique rosehip oil, will be a wonderful anti-age choice. Its lovely gift is also the way it can mattify the skin and help with unwanted pigmentation. Or are you drawn to the scent and the qualities of linden blossom? Then the Štefka edition is made for you. The feeling of tightness or dry skin gently fades with regular use of the facial creams from this range, as its texture and composition are made for just these concerns. The scent of linden blossom is simply the cherry on top. You are very welcome to combine facial creams with facial serums too. There is no need to worry that it is too much. Before applying your evening face cream, treat your skin to the pampering of natural facial serums and prepare it to take in the care that follows.
Facial balms
A unique addition to your beauty collection in caring for your skin can be the lesser known but all the lovelier natural facial balms. Thanks to their high concentration of active ingredients they are a real feast of nourishment for the skin. Not only do they nourish and renew it, they can also bring comfort to irritated spots and blemishes. Kopanyčárske nebo is an aromatherapeutic facial balm which, with its soothing and calming qualities, can gently bring comfort to blemish-prone, irritated skin. Also worth mentioning is the Motýlek facial balm, whose main ingredient is an extract of butterfly lavender - Stoechiol. It is said to help release muscle tension in the face, which contributes to smoothing wrinkles, and at the same time it works as a kind of patch for wrinkles, so they do not deepen when you smile or frown. Stoechiol evens out the skin tone, renews the upper layer of the skin and, by making skin cells denser, plumps and softens the complexion. Shall we? Will you add a few tips to your beauty ritual and care for your skin this way? We would be delighted, and we believe you will feel beautiful.
