We couldn’t help but admire the similar ideas displayed in @theeconomist cover and our latest BOUNCEBACK repair serum: resilience after covid. They’re writing about and we’re making skincare for it 🙌🔥⁠ ⁠ Today is #worldhealthday, and this year is all about bouncing back and building a fairer and healthier world. ⁠ ⁠ Your immune system gets called on all the time, not just during cold or COVID season. Immunity is key to skin health so if you are supporting your immune system regularly, you will enjoy better health and your body will be able to fight off acne more easily. Acne is inflammatory and usually exists as an infection, so it’s highly related to immune function. ⁠ ⁠ In addition to adding our BOUNCEBACK repair serum to your skincare routine, here are our top 4 tips to keep your health & skin in check:⁠ ⁠ 💊 Probiotics: Imbalances in your gut bacteria can send your immune system into overdrive that can affect many parts of your body, including your skin. We highly suggest adding probiotics to your daily routine to rebalance your microbiome and tame inflammation (we highly recommend @justthrivehealth)⁠ ⁠ 🚰 Hydrate: If your skin is not getting the proper amount of water, it will become tight and flaky, making it more prone to wrinkles and breakouts. Drinking at least 3 liters of water every day will not only keep your skin moisturized, but will also help to flush out toxins that lead to acne.⁠ ⁠ 🍊 Vitamin C: Incorporating a high-quality supplement to help add an extra layer of protection can make a huge difference not only in immunity but also in skin texture, wrinkles, and acne. Vitamin C supports better skin aging as this nutrient plays a pivotal role in synthesizing new collagen protein.⁠ ⁠ 📿 Reducing Chronic Stress: When you get stressed out you raise your cortisol levels which suppresses your immune system, causing your oil glands to produce more oil and causing breakouts. Though you can’t get rid of all stress (because stress is important for survival) you can learn to manage it! Find what works for you, maybe it’s taking a walk, going to yoga, taking deep breaths, calling a friend. ⁠ ⁠ (image by @theeconomist, edited by @clearstemskincare)
