How skin ages?

Young skin is primarily skin in tone. When the tone decreases, signs of aging appear tiny wrinkles, dry skin, a change in the oval of the face. The basis of elastic, young and toned skin is two substances, elastin, and collagen.

With age, the amount of these substances in the skin decreases, so you need to maintain their necessary level to preserve youth, natural beauty, and skin tone for a long time.

Thinning of elastin and collagen fibers occurs for several reasons, for example, "thanks" to active facial expressions: we smile and wince hundreds of times a day. An important role is played by exposure to ultraviolet radiation, smoking, alcohol, and many other external factors.

In addition, like all substances, elastin and collagen are proteins for the full construction of which the body needs amino acids. Their lack affects the condition of the skin, as well as hair (split ends) and nails (flak and break).

To maintain the level of amino acids necessary for the normal production of elastin and collagen fibers, a balanced diet will help. What products are necessary in the diet to preserve beauty and youth?

 What you should eat to prolong the youthfulness of the skin .

To maintain the right amount of elastin and collagen in the skin, you need to get at least substances and trace elements such as protein, vitamin C, iron, copper, and zinc in the required amount.

1.  To provide the body with iron, you need to eat lean red meat, tongue, liver.

2.  The lack of copper in the body can be compensated by including in the diet various cereals and legumes, nuts, eggs, and offal - the liver and kidneys of mammals.

3.  Protein in large quantities is found in meat and seafood.

4.  To maintain the level of vitamin C, you need to eat citrus fruits, kiwi and various berries, especially black currants.

5.  It is more difficult to find zinc in food, it is found mainly in wheatgrass and brewer's yeast.

6.  Since all vitamins and trace elements in the body are interrelated, the use of some affects the digestibility of others, so the golden rule of nutrition for health and beauty sounds like this:

Food should be varied. This means eating different types of meat and fish, dairy products, cereals, vegetables, fruits, nuts and greens. The wider the food group, the more diverse nutrients the body will receive, the better you will look. Try to start with simple rules.

 

·  Dress salads with high quality oils: olive, linseed, nut and grape seed oil. The fats entering the body allow the skin to retain moisture, and moisturized skin is less prone to the formation of wrinkles.

·  Treat yourself to seafood - sea and river fish, shrimps, squid, octopus and other representatives of the underwater world. Their protein is easily digested and allows you to restore cells.

·  Include in the diet a large number of vegetables and fruits: carrots, apples, pears, strawberries, citrus fruits, kiwi, all kinds of colorful vegetables, all kinds of cabbage and string beans - you can list plant sources of vitamins for a long time. The main thing is not to limit yourself to two or three types of products, there should be at least fifteen names.

         Care must be complex.

Of course, one meal can not keep the skin young and fresh. Physical activity and walks instead of TV and computer is one of the conditions for beautiful and fresh skin. Oxygen gives life to cells and creates a healthy glow.

Deep healthy sleep of at least eight hours a day is vital. Any violations of the regime primarily affect the complexion, and enough sleep supports the natural strength of the body and allows you to care for the skin with minimal effort.

But the main condition for beauty and youth is a special care for the skin of the face and neck. On the side of female natural beauty is natural cosmetics .Some of them we offer at our online store.

      Spring is the best time to prepare your face and body for the summer vacations and beach season. Methods that promise to make a woman younger and slimmer - a huge number, but we have selected the 3 best who can be trusted.

Deep Pore Cleansing

    Salon cleaning is not the most pleasant procedure, but very effective. If there are pimples, black spots or comedones on the skin of the face, manual cleaning is recommended. The use of special cosmetics makes a beauty session safe and means with an analgesic effect - almost painless.

   Though the face immediately after the procedure look reddened and swollen, you won’t be upset for a long time. After 2-3 days, the reflection in the mirror will be pleasing, and the effectiveness of using homemade cosmetics will increase significantly!

   If a woman does not have rashes on her face, a superficial cleansing of the skin and getting rid of the secretion of the sebaceous glands that have settled in the pores are required, the spa professional may suggest ultrasonic cleaning.

  Facial Peels

   Peels based on fruit and AHA-acids are leading in the top of spring procedures for skin renewal. And all because they perfectly refresh the complexion, add colors of youth, even out the skin relief and stimulate the processes of rejuvenation.

   But not all peels are allowed during the period of active sun, preference should be given to compositions with a surface spectrum of action. They are gentler and safer in the spring.

During the procedure, a chemical composition is applied to the cleansed face, after 15-30 minutes it is removed and the face is moisturized with a mask, and then moisturized with a cream with a high SPF filter.

   Moisturizing & Revitalizing Facials

Typical problems of a woman's skin in the spring are dullness, dehydration, insufficient hydration and nutrition. The deficiency of moisture and nutrients in the cells is designed to make up for special procedures with the use of masks and serums. Some of them can be carried out at home, having previously stocked up on cosmetic masks and professional compositions, while others can be done only in the clinic.

The most popular procedures in the salon today are collagen and alginate masks, the use of serums with anti-age effect, vitamins, and anti-acne components.

    Slight warmth of the fall`s sun reminds us that colder months are coming.

As much as we love summer, the hottest time of the year isn't as good for our skin. And only with the November we notice that the cold winds "stole" the last remnants of moisture from our skin, and the skin became dry, dehydrated, pale and dull.

So, what to do? How to ensure the restoration of the skin in cold weather?

- Get rid of dead skin layer

 

Exfoliation is the first step. We recommend using scrub at least 2 times a week. You can also contact a specialist and do a professional peeling. After exfoliation, our radiant skin is ready for hydration.

-Quench the "thirst" of the skin

 

If your skin is dry, then, probably, you have dehydrated and the whole body. Water only reaches our skin at the very end, so drinking plenty of water not only prevents the autumn cold and prepares us for winter, but also promotes skin health.

There are many moisturizing masks and creams. Creams are designed for long-term use, keep the skin moisturized, increasing its elasticity and elasticity. Vancouver Green Spa offers natural moisturizers for dry, normal, oily and sensitive skin and definitely recommends choosing them according to your skin type.

-  Don`t use a soap.

 

Did you know that all these colorful and fragrant soaps sold in stores only "torment" our skin and especially the skin of the face? After each application of such soap, the skin takes about two days to restore the natural production of sebum disturbed using soap. Hot water and soap not only cleanse, but also dehydrate and dry the skin.

-Nourishing the body

 

After bathing, the skin becomes drier and "rustling". Clean skin gives a pleasant feeling, but ... at the same time, the body expects additional hydration from us. Body creams and lotions retain moisture in the skin, soften and smooth the skin, making it younger, regardless of age.

With these steps, of course, begins, but does not end regenerative skin care. If your skin exhibits unexpected "behaviors" at this time of year, such as excessive sensitivity, irritation, redness, etc., contact our consultants for advice on proper care.

We will be happy to help!
