美容快遞:肌膚暗淡無光?恢復煥彩美肌的秘訣就在這裡!

Original Content from Thread SG 誰不想要健康、容光煥發的肌膚? 然而,保持肌膚有光澤並不是件容易的事。 無論是長久以來積累所得或是一直存在,不少人都被黯淡膚色的問題困擾。 事實是,有各種因素都會導致皮膚暗沉。 好消息是,這個問題可以糾正。 所以,如果你想讓自己肌膚散發光彩,就看以下的tips吧! 常飲水 雖然是老生常談,但依然值得強調。 如果你的H2O攝入量不足夠,皮膚會誠實告訴你。 不僅僅是當你發現皮膚失去自然光澤時才做,反而應每天堅持喝推薦的8至12杯水。 充足睡眠 睡眠不足是導致皮膚暗沉的另一個主要原因。 當身體疲勞時,皮膚得到較少適當的血液流量和/或所需氧氣。 這會導致發炎、黑眼圈和就像你一樣疲憊的肌膚。 花時間去角質 這是絕對不應跳過的一步。 去角質通過去除死皮細胞,令皮膚更有活力,從而擁有清新和健康的肌膚。 考慮氣候因素 暗沉肌膚的最大元兇就是環境侵害,如空氣污染、紫外線和雾霾等。我們所能做的就是保護好皮膚。 這些污染物會促進氧化並分解膠原蛋白,導致皮膚失去光澤。 因此,持續的護膚習慣至關重要。 最重要的是,每天都要用防曬霜,並在飲食中加入維他命C,令皮膚吸飽營養。 保持心境平和 壓力除了對我們內裡產生負面影響之外,也會浮出水面顯露在外。 時刻在緊張狀態會阻礙血液流動,令氧氣未能輸送到皮膚。 為了緩解緊張,可以嘗試在臉上冷敷,或者給自己一個快速而有效的按摩,特別注意你的太陽穴、下顎和眼眶。 常塗保濕霜 除了每天喝8到12杯水補充水分外,你的皮膚還需要一些額外的水分。 因此,請記住每天至少塗一次保濕霜,若想肌膚煥發光彩,塗兩次就最好不過了。 READ MORE: Continue reading 美容快遞:肌膚暗淡無光?恢復煥彩美肌的秘訣就在這裡!
