Your skin is your largest organ, and it’s the first line of defence for your body. To protect what’s inside, you need to take care of what is outside. What you eat, wear, and how much time you spent in the sun will all affect your skin health. Here are ten tips to boost your skin’s natural beauty from the inside out!
 * Your diet.
The food you eat is one of the most critical factors that contribute to your skin health. Eating a balanced diet with fruits and vegetables will help keep your skin hydrated, which can combat acne breakouts. Avoiding rich or processed foods may also improve conditions like eczema and psoriasis. These types are caused by an autoimmune response exacerbated by environmental triggers such as specific allergens (e.g., gluten) or stress hormones.
 * Wear sunscreen!
Ultraviolet rays from direct sunlight damage the outer layer of your skin cells. It causes the skin to produce more free radicals than usual, leading to increased wrinkles and premature aging signs, including age spots, uneven pigmentation, and age-related skin thickening. Excessive sun exposure can also lead to conditions such as photoaging or even melanoma, cancer that begins in cells called melanocytes responsible for giving your skin its natural colour.
 * Avoid artificial light at night time!
The UVB rays from sunlight play an essential role in regulating our circadian rhythms by controlling how much melatonin is released into our bodies. Even indoor lights may suppress sleep quality due to their effect on releasing this hormone. So, it’s best not to use electronic devices before bedtime if you want good quality rest (they emit blue wavelengths). The ideal bedroom environment should be dark with cool colors since warm shades stimulate people more than cool ones.
 *Use coconut oil:
Coconut oil is a great natural moisturizer. Its fatty acids and antioxidants have been shown to help protect skin against dryness, inflammation, and wrinkles, resulting in healthy-looking skin with the appearance of fewer age spots or fine lines!
 * Avoid touching your face as much as possible throughout the day!
Your hands carry bacteria that can irritate your skin or cause infection if handled too often. It is especially important for people with oily skin prone to blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, or clogged pores that dirty fingers could infect. Remember that it takes about 30 seconds after washing before it’s safe for you to touch your face again – so avoid doing this during meals when food particles can get stuck on your fingertips.
 * Drink lots of water:
Drinking enough fluids is very important for skin health. Drinking water will help flush out toxins and wastes from your body, directly improving how healthy you look by regulating the natural oils on top of your skin. You’ll also want to drink enough fluids so that your urine is a light yellow color since darker colors may be signs of dehydration!
 * Sleep at least eight hours per night:
Lack of sleep has been shown to impact our immune system and decrease the production of critical hormones such as melatonin. It leads to unhealthy-looking skin due to increased free radicals from less-than-ideal circadian rhythms or more short quality rest. Getting an appropriate amount of sleep every day means more time spent in REM stages where human growth hormone is released, helping your skin cells regenerate.
 * Use a humidifier:
 Dry air can cause your hands, feet, or even lips to become dry and cracked – which doesn’t look too great and increases the potential for infections from cuts on these areas caused by scratching them! Using a humidifier will add moisture back into the air in your home, and you’ll soon notice an improvement in how healthy-looking it is all over. It may also be good to invest in some hand moisturizer with SPF so that it’s easier to maintain as well.
 * Get enough protein/minerals:
Obtaining adequate amounts of proteins and minerals may help improve how healthy your skin looks due to their ability to nourish cells on top of your epidermis. Protein deficiency can cause hair loss or even acne (whereas too many carbohydrates are linked with weight gain). Minerals such as zinc deficiencies have been associated with everything from eczema outbreaks that make you itch all over but also psoriasis – where the skin will be red, itchy, and scaly.
 * Drink green tea:
green tea has been shown to have antioxidant properties that can help protect your cells from free radicals, which is the leading cause of premature aging! You’ll also find a fair number of studies suggesting this may lead to healthier-looking skin with fewer wrinkles or age spots – especially in areas where you are most likely sensitive such as around your mouth.
* Don’t smoke cigarettes!
Smoking negatively impacts how healthy your lungs look and could result in yellow teeth, fingers, voice, etc. Cigarette smoking increases the risk for smokers developing lung cancer – leading to an unhealthy appearance due to its ability to damage tissues deep within airways, making them more vulnerable to infection.
 * Stay active!
Exercise is associated with increased blood flow and oxygen to all body parts, leading to healthier skin due to more nutrients delivered from circulation. It’s not just the legs used when you exercise either: your lungs will get a workout as well, so they don’t have as much work moving fluids around in your circulatory system! This makes it easier for them to deliver gases like oxygen, water vapor, or carbon dioxide, depending on what you need at any given time. Remember that you’ll feel better, too, since exercise releases endorphins (which help make us happy) into our bloodstreams, which indirectly benefits how healthy we may be feeling inside out.
What are the natural face packs I can use for healthy skin?
*Â Lavender:
This flower has been used for centuries to treat skin irritations – which is why you’ll find it in many lotions and soaps today. The scent alone (when inhaled) can help calm stress-related reactions such as redness or even psoriasis outbreaks that make you itch. Using this type of natural face pack may also lead to healthier-looking skin due to its ability to reduce sebum production on top of your epidermis!
 * Aloe Vera:
Known for their ability to heal cuts, burns, and bruises faster than anything else – one could say they’re a must-have around the house! Besides aiding with how healthy your skin looks externally (due to their antimicrobial properties), these plants also work internally by neutralizing free radicals that damage cells in the body.
* Honey:
This all-natural food is not only good for you, but it’s also been shown to be an excellent natural remedy when applied externally on dry, irritated, or inflamed areas of your body – including your face! Who knew this tasty treat could do so much?
 * Fresh herbs (greens, cucumbers):
they’re cheap and easy to come by – not to mention that they work wonders when it comes time for your own at-home facial.
* Avocado (or olive oil):
Apply with a cotton ball after you’ve washed your face in the evening before bedtime, as this type of remedy will help moisturize any dry areas while also reducing inflammation from breakouts on top of hydrating cell membranes. It’s an affordable way to get healthier-looking skin!
 * Oatmeal/milk powder:
Like fresh ingredients like leafy greens or cucumber slices, oatmeal is another food item that works well as a natural face pack. The reason being that it can help to reduce inflammation and redness while also helping your skin feel more moisturized.
* Yogurt:
It’s not just for breakfast anymore! This tasty food item is excellent when applied externally on the body as it will help with any dry or irritated areas – including your epidermis (aka facial skin)!
 * Rosewater/chamomile tea:
These items are known for their soothing effects, making them perfect additions to a DIY at-home mask you’re driving from scratch. What makes this type of remedy work so well? They both contain anti-inflammatory properties, which can help heal breakouts quicker than they would otherwise without causing any irritation in the process.
 *Gram flour
is a staple in India. You can mix it with water to create an effective face mask that will help remove dead skin cells from the surface of your skin while also exfoliating dry patches on your skin. It is also safe to use on sensitive skin without the irritation that other products may cause. It is easy to mix with other ingredients such as yogurt for a creamy texture that will moisturize dry skin while simultaneously tightening and fading stretch marks.
