Even the most beautiful girl will lose her charm if she has poor complexion. No matter how good the makeup is, it won't help. Poor complexion is often caused by lack of skincare and sun protection, as well as genetic factors. To improve complexion, one needs to take care of their body.
1. Palace Cold
Black circles under the eyes, dull face, and spots are the most obvious signs of palace cold. Palace cold is a common cause of health problems in women, often showing symptoms such as cold limbs, cold and painful lower abdomen during menstruation, lower back pain, decreased sexual desire, and difficulty conceiving.
2. Irregular Menstruation
Irregular menstruation can lead to poor blood circulation in women, causing stagnant blood in the body, which naturally affects the complexion.
3. Uterine Fibroids
A wax yellow complexion is one of the typical external manifestations of uterine fibroids. Patients often have increased menstrual flow, which leads to lack of nourishment in the body and naturally affects the complexion.
The estrogen secreted by the ovaries helps maintain hydrated and glowing skin. Some diseases can cause a decrease or excess of estrogen secretion, such as inflammation, polycystic ovary syndrome, and ovarian cancer. A decrease in estrogen can result in dry, yellowish, and loose skin without elasticity. An increase in estrogen can cause darkening of the skin and increased sebum secretion.
In addition, poor lifestyle habits such as staying up late, poor sleep quality, and easy awakening can lead to insufficient rest time, resulting in poor complexion and even a wax yellow appearance.
So how can women improve their complexion? How to get rid of dull skin?
1. Thorough Makeup Removal for Whitening
How many girls can't leave the house without makeup? Then make sure to remove your makeup thoroughly, as leaving it on the face can cause darkening of the skin. Cleansing can better whiten the skin, so the first tip for whitening is to ensure thorough makeup removal.
2. Pay Attention to Blood Nourishment
Many women's dull skin is related to blood deficiency. Women with blood deficiency often feel easily tired, dizzy, and sometimes have palpitations. In addition, blood deficiency can be observed from a thin, white tongue coating and pale and diluted menstrual blood.
If blood deficiency is the cause, it can be improved by nourishing the blood. Natural foods such as black beans, hair seaweed, carrots, golden needles, and longan meat have health benefits and can be consumed. The Four Substances Decoction, which includes Chinese angelica, Szechuan lovage, peony, and rehmannia, can also be brewed together. It is even better to cook it with black-boned chicken. Eating dates and wolfberries can also be beneficial.
3. Adjust Sleep Patterns
We should adjust our sleep patterns and avoid staying up late. Staying up late can gradually darken the fair skin, lose its radiance, develop wrinkles, and become loose.
4. Sun Protection
Pay attention to sun protection when going outdoors. Sun protection is the key to whitening. You can apply sunscreen or choose to wear sunglasses and a sun hat, it's a personal choice.
5. Reduce the Frequency of Makeup
Many cosmetics contain heavy metals that can cause significant damage to the skin. People who have been wearing makeup for a long time often have dull and rough skin without any radiance once they remove their makeup. Therefore, try to avoid wearing makeup when possible, and if it's unavoidable, opt for light makeup. If you do wear makeup, make sure to thoroughly remove it. Also, drink plenty of water as it can accelerate metabolism and help eliminate harmful substances from the body.
