Habits you should consider leaving behind for good skin!

If you wish to have beautiful glowing skin, there are a few habits that you should consider leaving at the door.

A few things are listed below:

Excess Sugar

Studies suggest that people who have tested with high blood sugar levels, look older. There is a definite relation between sugar and ageing. Well, while sugar does contribute heavily to ageing, it’s not the only reason why you should consider letting go of sugar. It is known to be one of the most addictive substances around, it spikes blood sugar levels in the body, which come crashing down and then lead us to crave more of it. This vicious cycle takes a toll on our health and skin.

Avoid sugar and use alternative sweeteners. Eat a fruit when you are craving something sweet, choose dark chocolate over the regular variety and see the difference in your life.

Drink Water

A trip to the refrigerator for a glass of water is necessary, keeping your water bottle handy is necessary. Your skin needs water, and your body needs water, water is one of the essential ingredients for healthy skin and a healthy life. Not hydrating your self enough can lead to detrimental consequences, which will show on your health as well as skin.

Toxic Pillow Cases

You may be extremely particular about washing your bed linen way too often. However, are you particular about the washing detergent that you use? Has all the soap been rinsed out, is there nothing left? More often than not, since we are in a hurry, toxic detergent gets left behind in the clothes that we wash, our pillowcases too. When we sleep, our skin in contact with the pillowcase, and the toxic detergent acts as an irritant, causing issues, and making you look older faster.
