You are what you eat, so whatever you eat could be helpful or harmful to you. One of the organs that we can improve through nutrition is our skin. By eating the right things and getting the right nutrients, our skin can glow magnificently. The nutrients that are good for your skin include:
Collagen supplements
Collagen is one of the most abundant proteins in the human body, the function of collagen is to hold body tissues together and maintain the firmness of the skin. Supplements are to increase skin elasticity and improve skin hydration and wound healing while preventing skin aging.[1]
Ceramide
Ceramides are fatty acids that are naturally found in skin cells. As we age, the ceramide content in our skin decreases which leaves us with dull, dry skin. Ceramide forms a barrier that reduces moisture loss, thus preventing skin dryness and irritation. Other than that, ceramide also protects your skin from environmental damage.[2] By replenishing your skin’s protective barrier, one can improve skin hydration while reducing skin irritation and the appearance of fine lines.
Rosemary & Grapefruit Extract
Our skin may age naturally, but ultraviolet rays (UV rays) actually speed up the process. This premature aging, when it exposed to light called photoaging. When our skin exposed to UV rays, it will accumulate damage, causing rough skin and deep wrinkles. The polyphenols found in rosemary and grapefruit extracts were to protect your skin from UV rays, thus lowering the rate of photoaging.[3]
Other than protection against UV rays, rosemary and grapefruit extracts were also found to fight against oxidative stress on your skin. A combination of the two extracts provides us with an antioxidant effect on our skin.[4] This effect fights off the free radicals in our skin, which prevents skin damage and reduces the redness of the skin.
While skincare products can serve to protect our skin externally, it functions best when paired with habits that improve our skin health. BElixz MAQNIFIQ formulated with collagen, phytoceramide, and rosemary and grapefruit extract is one of the most advanced beauty drinks available that you must experience for yourself. It is found to rebuild your skin structure, reduce wrinkles, improve skin hydration, protect against UV rays and protect your skin from damage.
