Beauty Detox: How to Remove Toxins From Hair and Skin

Our hair and skin are exposed to the toxins the most, from the air, water as well as from the very products we use and food that we eat. The precondition to having healthy skin and hair is doing a beauty detox, at least a couple of times a year. In order to help you do this, here are some great tips on how you can remove toxins from your hair and skin.

Get rid of old layers

The first step is to cleanse and purify your skin. Start with a whole body peeling to get rid of all the dead cells. The next step is to use organic purifying products like a clay-based mask to clear your outer skin layers of all the toxins, you could do a citrus stem prior to that so that it opens up your pores and help the purification process. And finally, make sure you exfoliate on the regular basis to keep your skin fresh and glowing. As for your hair, regular trims will keep it good shape and help get rid of the unwanted split ends. You can also use scalp exfoliators several times a year to enable better scalp skin and hair quality.

Go organic

Organic skin and hair products are just as effective but they expose your skin and hair to a lot fewer chemicals, thus limiting the number of toxins that come in contact with your body. And don’t worry the organic product lines offer everything from quality organic hair growth shampoo to organic sunscreen, that way you can keep up with all your skin and hair care routines while at the same time exposing your skin to a lot less unhealthy chemical like parabens, fragrances, and synthetic colors.

Modify your nutrition

A lot of what we eat ends up in our hair and skin, and that is just one way of introducing additional toxins into our body. This is why in order to do a beauty detox we have to make some modification to our daily diet. The first step is to cut out all the meat-based proteins, limiting their amount and replacing them with meatless proteins can do wonders for your skin and hair. So introduce almonds, cottage cheese, egg whites and green vegetables and you will be able to see an improvement in just a couple of weeks. The next step is to cut down on sugars. Sugar can substantially lower the amount of collagen and elastin in your skin, and as you know they are the ones that help keep it firm and youthful by a process known as glycation. In addition, increased sugar intake can undo all the good you have done by introducing a well-balanced diet. As for our hair, apart from the protein intake we also need to improve on our iron and vitamin E and A levels, so introducing foods that are rich in these nutrients is a must to acquire healthy hair.

 

Up your fitness game

A great fitness routine can do wonders for our skin. First of all, by increasing the blood flow, exercise can help nourish skin cells and keep them vital. Thus keeping the skin in great shape. Another important benefit of fitness is that we sweat out a lot of toxins. Having a great workout means that you have not only toned your body but also gotten rid of a lot of toxins. Now keep in mind that after a great workout it is essential that we take a warm shower to wash down the toxins and then apply products that will help our skin stay soft and glowy. That way we will have come full circle when it comes to taking care of our skin and hair.

 

Remember, a beauty detox is not something you do only once. It should become a part of your regular beauty routine. That way you won’t have to invest as much time and money to get the skin and hair quality that you want. With the number of toxins that we expose our body to the daily basis, it is no wonder that we need to put extra effort into detoxifying it. And our skin and hair are the first lines of defence, so we need to invest extra time to keep them healthy and toxin free.
