How to Detoxify Your Skin At Home in Time for Summer


Everyone’s favourite holiday is around the corner! The best thing to start now is to get your skin ready for the summer holiday. While getting your summer body ready, we advise that you get your skin ready also.


When we get into a new season without detoxifying the skin, the chances of an acne breakout become higher. We come in contact with various skin buildups every day. Dust, germs, pollution, and dead skin cells can clog our skin. The best way to get your skin healthy and glowing in time for the summer is by detoxifying.


The following tips will guide you properly and ensure your skin is ready in time for the new season.


1. Drink plenty of water

If you’re hydrated on the inside, the results show on the outside. Remember that during the summer, the weather is hotter, and you get easily dehydrated. 

It is best to start now by keeping your body hydrated. Not only will your skin glow, but it will become a lifestyle for you during the summer. The average human is expected to take at least 2 litres of water a day. 

To make this more exciting, you can infuse lemon and cucumber into your water. It keeps you hydrated and has other benefits for your skin. You can also get your daily water limit through fruits. Cucumber and watermelon are good sources of water and also they brighten up the overall appearance of your skin. Instead of dealing with hyperpigmentation during the summer or shadow on your skin, drink lots of water.


 

2. Exfoliate your skin

Dead skin cells live on skin that hasn’t gone through detoxification. During the summer, the exterior part of our skin suffers the most from the sun. Naturally, the sun can damage the skin due to the effects of the UV rays. 

When the UV rays damage the skin, it leaves dead skin cells on the surface. With the dead skin cells present, it is difficult for your skincare products to penetrate your skin. 

When you exfoliate, you get rid of these dead skin cells on the body. The best natural product to exfoliate with is the oat powder. It is gentle on the skin, but there are also other health benefits attached to this product. It leaves the skin mild and brighter. Always remember to moisturise after exfoliation, and when you’re done, use sunscreen to protect your skin from further damage.


 
3. Make cleansing a habit

To get your skin ready for summer, you will have to cleanse daily. It’s not okay to sleep with your makeup on as it will only clog your skin. To detoxify and get your skin ready for summer, you must double cleanse.

 It will help to remove excess oil from the skin. If you’re wondering why you should double cleanse, this is why: the first time you remove the dirt and makeup on your face. 

The second cleansing removes excess oil and impurities from the surface of your skin. Look through our products and choose a good cleanser for your skin. Remember, it is safer to use a natural cleanser as harsh products will only make your skin extra sensitive.


 

4. Eat clean

What you take on the inside is responsible for how your body looks outside. Junk food and dieting the wrong way will leave you with oily skin and acne breakouts. It is best to stay away from food that dull your skin and clogs the pores. 

Dairy products and fried food will only cause damage to your body when you’re trying to detoxify.

 It is safer to have more alkaline-rich food (or fruit) and vegetables. Avocados should be your best friend because they contain healthy fat that only makes your skin brighter and glowing from the inside.


 
5. Sweat it out

Another way to get your skin ready for the summer is by exercising more. It restores your body and helps to get rid of unwanted toxins. Exercising helps to increase your blood flow which balances out your complexion.


Always remember to get your beauty sleep. When you have your skin ready for the summer, remember to always wear sunscreen outdoors.

The Clumsy Wife

When you were asked about your swollen right eye, you said you sleepwalked and hit your face against the wall. We all said sorry and asked you to get well soon. A few days after, it was your chin that was shifted to the side. In response, you blamed it again in your clumsiness and that you feel off the bed. You are a grown woman in her late 30's. This time, we had questions that we couldn't dare to ask you. Weeks later, you were limping and you assured us that it was your clumsiness that made you fall down the stairs. At this point, we faced our business and wished you all the best. 2 months later, you're lying in a golden casket, 6 feet under the ground.  The autopsy read that you died from a deep gash on your forehead, probably a hit from the bloody plank of wood that was found beside your corpse. At this point, you want to talk. You wanted to say it all. But it's too late. Your husband claimed you hit your head on the plank, and we all believed him because you told u

She Must Be Obeyed Movie Review

  I don't understand Funke Akindele's obsession with the music industry Sha. She is always trying to project the industry one way or the other - we have Industreet already. On this new one Sha, I don't know how to feel about it.  This storyline is great. The life of a Celebrity musician behind the camera and in front of the camera. But the directing get as e be. The movie just dey anyhow. But the acting from some cast made up for the 'anyhowness'. Bishop (Okon) was amazing. Lateef was great. Gayness doesn't fit Akah. He shouldn't try it again. Vee tried small. I don't understand what Ali Nuhu was acting. Lizzy Jay sef dey vex person. The entire Rachael Okonkwo family weren't it at all. Mama Gee no try at all. Don't give her a drunk role again. Nancy Isime was Nancy Isime, Just there. Shaffy Bello was great as always. In all, I will give it a 4/10.

Big Love Movie Review

  While this movie tried not to be your regular Nollywood Romantic movie, I still got annoyed at some small small mistakes that I saw. Inkblot is too big for some mistakes that were present in this movie. Overall, Big Love is nice. It's a movie that would take you through a rollercoaster of emotions. The beginning was quite not it.  Most of the dialogues got me rolling my eyes, like warahell. Casting was great. Storyline was amazing Directing wasn't coordinated. There were scenes that looked rushed and scattered. PS - VJ Adams should just leave Bimbo for Timini. Their chemistry is mind-blowing. Timini had grown as an actor. And it's great to see. Aunty Shaffy is great, as always. Overall, I'd give it an 8/10.
