When it comes to our skin, we all strive for that radiant, healthy glow. But achieving beautiful skin goes waaay beyond skincare products — it's about embracing a holistic approach. That means eating the right foods, getting enough sleep, reducing our toxic load, and more. It’s time to nourish your body inside and out - and we’re here to help, sis! From hydration hacks to stress-busting strategies, we’ve got some essential holistic wellness tips to complement your skincare routine and help you achieve that effortless glow you crave!

Hydrate Inside and Out

Here's a simple truth: if you're not hydrating enough, your skin will show it! Adequate water intake helps skin cells retain moisture, keeping them plump, firm, and youthful. How much water do you need? Aim for at least 2-3 litres daily, adjusting based on your activity level. Listen to your body's cues, especially if your skin feels dry - it might be telling you to drink up! Boost your hydration with herbal teas, and water-rich fruits like watermelon and cucumber, and consider adding mineral drops or a pinch of sea salt to your filtered water for added benefits. And don't forget to hydrate your skin externally with a nourishing moisturiser or hydrating serum daily.

Prioritise Beauty Sleep

Beauty sleep isn't a myth - it's science! To have that rejuvenated, dewy glow that we all crave, getting enough sleep is non-negotiable in the world of skincare. Your skin regenerates and repairs itself while you snooze, so aim for a solid 7-8 hours of shut-eye each night. Set a bedtime routine, dim the lights, and unwind with a book or soothing music to prepare your body for restful slumber.

Boost Your Collagen Intake

As you’re on the journey to glowing skin, think about giving your skin an extra boost from the inside. These little additions can tackle some of the underlying issues that may be causing skin concerns. If you’re not big on animal foods, your diet might be lacking in collagen, a key player in skin health. Collagen, a protein that's like the glue holding your skin together, is essential for maintaining that youthful look. So, consider adding collagen-rich foods or supplements, like our best-selling Dewty Daily Collagen, to your routine for that extra skin-loving care!

Shield Your Skin with SPF

Protect your precious skin, sis! Sun damage is serious stuff! Remember, it's better to prevent than to deal with damage later on. Slather on that high-quality SPF every day like your skin's bestie. Those UV rays are sneaky culprits behind dark spots and premature ageing. Rain or shine, indoors or out, those rays don't discriminate. So, make SPF a non-negotiable step in your skincare routine, every single day.

Get Your Gut Right

Healthy skin starts from within, and a balanced gut microbiome is your secret weapon. While we typically focus a lot on topical skincare products, what’s going on on the inside can actually help to improve skin texture. The health of your gut and skin are intertwined. Probiotics and fibre-rich foods support a balanced gut microbiome, which in turn can contribute to healthy skin. Fermented foods like yoghurt, kefir, sauerkraut, and kombucha are great choices to incorporate into your diet to promote clear, radiant skin. Or, why not give our Dewty Super Greens a go? Packed with 16 superfoods and essential vitamins and minerals, this nutrient-dense blend supports gut health, immunity, and skin radiance. With clinically proven ingredients like Livaux® (green kiwi fruit) and Actazin® (gold kiwi fruit), Dewty Super Greens nourishes your gut microbiome and promotes a healthy, glowing complexion from within.

Cut Back on Sugary Treats

We all love a sweet indulgence now and then, but too much sugar can wreak havoc on our skin. It's not just about the occasional blemish – excessive sugar consumption and processed foods can lead to inflammation, which is the last thing we want for our skin.

Try to reduce your intake of refined sugars and instead opt for nutrient-rich snacks - think juicy fruits bursting with vitamins, crunchy nuts packed with essential fatty acids, and hearty seeds loaded with antioxidants. Not only will these wholesome snacks satisfy your sweet cravings, but they'll also provide your skin with the nourishment it needs to glow from the inside out.

Manage Stress Levels

Stress isn't just bad for your mood - it can also seriously mess with your skin. Practice relaxation techniques like meditation, deep breathing, or yoga in your daily routine. Take 15-30 minutes each day to focus on just YOU. These practices not only help keep stress levels in check but also promote skin clarity by reducing the production of stress hormones that can lead to breakouts and inflammation. It’s a win-win!

Get Moving 

Exercise isn't just about sculpting your physique; it's also a game-changer for your skin. Engaging in regular physical activity boosts blood circulation throughout your body, delivering essential nutrients and oxygen to your skin cells. This increased circulation helps flush out toxins, promotes collagen production, and supports a radiant complexion. So, whether it's a brisk walk, a yoga session, or a dance class, lace up those sneakers and get your glow on!
