Clear skin
tips: we all want it, but not all of us are quite sure how to make it happen.
When
every health and beauty site has endless advice
for clearing up our faces, it can all be a bit overwhelming. Which serum
do I use? Will this lotion make my face oily? How do I get rid of this breakout? These
are all questions we ask ourselves, and sometimes we just don't know where to
start.
To
help clear things up (no pun intended), we spoke with nutritionist, wellness
expert, and multi-time New York Times best-selling author Kimberly Snyder,
who set the facts straight on the matter.
She
shared the top three clear skin tips with her clients, and each hack starts
from the inside out—no products necessary. Read below to see what she had to
say.
Clear Skin Tips #1 - CLEANSE
REGULARLY
"I
highly recommend cleansing seasonally because it’s giving your body a chance to
catch up with digestion," she suggested. "The other thing is
ongoing cleansing—it’s what you do every day.
People
are always thinking about what they put in, but what we need to do is figure
out how to take out all the stuff that weighs us down. I’m talking about
toxins, I'm talking about by-products of metabolism; even if we lived in a
perfect place, we'd still get all these heavy metals, pesticides, air
pollution, contaminants in the water supply.
There's
so much that gets into our bodies and it lodges in our system in different ways
and it creates millions of radicals, it weighs down and shows up in our skin.
It's our largest organ. So if we really want to be our healthiest and most
vital long term, we have to have things that clean us out and those things
include fiber and enzymes.
Skin
care for me is a relaxing ritual that makes me feel good. At the end of a long
or challenging day, I crave a mini at-home-facial. I get home, maybe chug some
water first to rehydrate, then wash my face, massage a warm washcloth over my
skin and maybe do a quick mask or exfoliate.
I
use products that smell uplifting, using essential oils or other natural plant-based aromas. I spritz my face, use a toner
pad and finish up with a light serum or moisturizer.
By
the end of my routine I feel refreshed, more relaxed and ready to transition
into recharge, see-you-later-stress mode. Bonus effects of self-care skin-care routines: glowing,happy skin.
Clear Skin Tips #2 - AVOID
DAIRY
"Dairy
is very congestive for a lot of people—a lot of people don’t digest it
well," she explained. "So if you’re going to have milk,
have almond milk or hemp milk or coconut milk, they even have it at Starbucks.
If
you’re going to have cheese, even goat cheese digests better than cow’s milk
dairy. And for yogurt, there’s coconut yogurt and almond-milk yogurt."
Clear Skin Tips #3 - EAT
FOODS IN A CERTAIN ORDER
Snyder
also suggests that we "optimize digestion in the way that we order foods
and combine them to make digestion as easy as possible, because it’s such an
energy-intensive process.
And
when we free up energy from digestion—I call this beauty energy—then we have
more energy to rebuild the collagen
in our skin, everything looks better. We don’t want things sitting in there,
fermenting and putrefying."
