It is known that people are increasingly interested in sustainable, natural cosmetic products with the primary goal of achieving the desired results with the help of good and healthy habits. Holistic beauty deals with precisely that; this approach aims to create a practice of making and using natural, effective products that enable beauty from the inside and outside.

We may not think about it often, but the skin is more than a shield protecting internal organs. The skin is just as important as the rest of the body, and everything you do in that self-care is reflected in your skin. Remember that many products will help you achieve your goals. Still, products are not the only important thing in achieving your goals - what your habits and overall health are, but also how you feel is essential.

a

Regarding a holistic approach to beauty, all aspects that affect the skin are considered, from nutrition, genetics, health, habits, and even the skincare routine. Often, this process will take a long time, and a certain amount of patience is needed to achieve the desired results. Still, once you reach them, you will know everything is worth it!

a

What do we mean by a holistic approach to beauty?

a

We have already hinted at what a holistic approach to beauty would mean. Still, now we will give you a more concrete explanation. This approach to beauty implies not only skincare but comprehensive care of the body, both externally and internally.

a

Specifically, this means that you need to sleep enough and of good quality, drink a lot of water, eat a balanced diet, add vitamins and minerals to strengthen your immunity, exercise and move regularly and - very importantly - find time for your mental health.

a

The holistic approach to health implies that everything in our body is somehow connected. The goal is to achieve a balance of mind, body and spirit. In fact, it's about looking at yourself from a different perspective and taking steps towards healthy habits and valuable routines, both in skincare and other aspects of life.

a

If you're thinking about trying a holistic approach, you can do a few things to make the whole process easier. For example, it is desirable to establish a routine, especially if you want to change your current habits. If you have yet to be in the practice of preparing breakfast or daily skincare, in the next few weeks, make an effort and try to compose a great breakfast every day and set aside time for skin care. In addition to the fact that your skin will look good after skincare, you will also work on setting aside time for your mental health and yourself, which we all need occasionally.

You can learn a lot in your holistic journey, and we bring you some concrete ideas below!

How to create a routine that corresponds to a holistic approach to beauty?

a

We've stressed enough so far that there's no quick fix to getting healthy and fantastic skin, but here's what you can do to get those results. Read these tips carefully and apply them all, but if it seems like too much of a change, choose the ones you think you'll be able to stick to.

a

Make sure to drink plenty of fluids throughout the day

a

a

From a young age, we learned at school that the human body is mainly composed of water, so it is not surprising that we need to drink a lot of liquid daily to function normally. Without water, we often feel weak and disoriented, and the consequences are visible on the skin.

a

Although drinking fluids is not essential for healthy skin, it helps the body regulate toxins and keep the body hydrated and "awake." It often happened to all of us that we felt terribly tired, and then we would drink water and feel better. This is not a coincidence, but the effect of water on the body.

a

Reflecting hydration in the body helps to remember the elasticity of the skin. Wrinkles and lines will appear on everyone's face over time, but it is simply an aging process that no one can fight against. However, enough fluid in the body can slow down and minimize this process, leaving the skin smooth and clean. But many other health benefits come with keeping your body hydrated, including better blood flow, improved gut health, and flushing out harmful toxins.

a

Exercise as a desirable daily routine

a

Regular exercise is part of holistic skincare and holistic health in general. It benefits longevity and reduces the risk of heart disease, helps with weight control, and improves mood and mental health. Exercise helps regulate blood flow, which makes it easier for the body to deliver oxygen and nutrients to the parts that need it most – including the face!

a

Some people refuse to exercise because they don't like the feeling of sweat on them. But sweat is not an alarming phenomenon at all. In fact, this is how the body flushes out toxins and gets the blood moving, making the body work better and more functionally. You make sure you live a healthier life.

a

Also, sweating can help clear pores to stop the appearance of pimples and whiteheads. Increased blood flow helps remove waste products and free radicals from the skin to prevent inflammation and damage. Likewise, sweating leads to increased cell turnover and collagen production, which leads to a reduction in lines and wrinkles.

a

Of course, we don't expect you to go to the gym and exercise so much that you can't get out of bed the next day, but you must move. Suppose exercise isn't something you're interested in. In that case, you can always turn to activities like dancing, hiking, brisk walking, etc. But if you spend time outside, remember to protect your skin with a good SPF!

a

Make sure you get enough sleep every night

a

a

We are all familiar with that good feeling when we get enough good and long sleep and feel great all day, and when it is not the case, we spend the whole day grumpy and nervous. The amount of sleep is an essential factor in a holistic approach to beauty.

a

Every night we sleep, the body "throws" itself to work to start renewing itself. Not only does it work hard to heal and rejuvenate, but it also works to keep the skin as healthy as possible. One of the ways that sleep helps the skin is by creating collagen. Collagen is essential for keeping the skin youthful and healthy as production is part of the recovery process and is crucial in preventing skin sagging.

a

Also, sleep helps stimulate blood flow, which is critical to preventing dark and puffy under-eye circles that can make us look and feel bad. Remember that the longer and better you sleep (between seven and nine hours of sleep is recommended), the more time your body will have to recover.

a

Don't forget your skincare routine

a

a

We don't need to tell you how important a good skin routine is. If you want to follow a holistic approach to beauty, choose all those products that use clean and good ingredients that have a good effect on you but also on the environment. Therefore, choose products with sustainable packaging and ingredients and thus protect yourself and everyone around you. Beauty inside and out, remember?

a

a

In addition, for the products to have the best possible effect and for the skin to look and be healthier, you can use various tools to rub the products into every pore. These are tools like rollers and gua with which you massage your face and stimulate blood circulation, thereby waking up your look. The result? Beautiful and healthy skin.

a

Creating a holistic skincare routine is more than just working on skin health; it's about prioritizing your overall health so that everything is balanced, healthy and beautiful.
