Stress – A Curse For Your Skin, Not Just Your Mind!

No matter how many beauty products India you use, natural beauty counts a great deal in making you look beautiful.
If till now you have believed that right eating alone affects your skin health, then you have been living in a misconception! Your skin is also a mirror to how you feel inside. If you feel good and eat right, surely your skin and complexion are going to be talk of the next women party!
To be specific, stress has adverse effects on the overall well being of the skin and complexion. An overdose of anxiety affects the glow of the skin and gives rise to a number of skin complexion troubles. Read below how severely you affect your skin with every bit of anxiety that bothers you:

1. Poor diet: Mary Hartley, RD, MPH and nutritionist for Calorie Count explains that stress always results poor nutrition as it dampers your intentions of having good food. Stress either results in loss of appetite (which means the necessary nutrients are missing from your diet plan) or you tend to fall for junk food (as they are high on energy and help you feel better).  Both the situations are dangerous for the skin. Most of us don’t realize in the stress that having balanced diet minimizes the stress and helps you get the desired healthy and glowing skin.
2. Development of fine lines: Have you ever seen your face when you are stressed? One thing for sure you would have noticed will be how fine line develops when you frown and furrow the brows. Now imagine those fine lines getting permanent. Terrified! But it is true, the fine lines tend to grow permanent as with the age the elasticity of the skin is lost. So, next time you are angry, tell yourself, ‘I don’t want fine line.’
3. Dullness: Skin is the mirror of your inner well being. If you are stressed it is sure to reflect on your skin. It grows dull and seems lifeless. This is also because stress triggers the secretion of cortisol hormone that hinders the transportation of skin cells to the surface and they flake off. This is not all this hormone makes it look dull.
4. Dryness: Unreasonable deadlines or a recent break-up can be responsible for the flaky skin? The lipid barrier decreases with the increase in the stress levels which results in evaporation of the fluids. It is best to use weekly moisture mask or hydrate serums below the regular moisturizer to fix the flakes.
5. Exacerbated conditions: Hartley explains that stress inhibits with the skins natural repair process. Therefore, more the stress you are to witness more skin related troubles like cold sores, flare-ups, eczema, psoriases and many other skin troubles.
6. Blemishes: Soon, after the acne age passes away the blemishes starts popping up here and there on face making you irritable. If you are not prone to blemishes then one prime reason can be stress. Cortisol increases the production of oil which add block out the pores which results in the breakouts.
