Luckily, there are measures you can take to NATURALLY fix your skin, that are great for your overall health as well.
Here they are:
1. Take care of your gut.
The gut-skin axis is a bi-directional pathway that connects the gut and skin. Gut microbes send signals to the skin and influence things like inflammation, skin structure and sebum production.
Without a healthy gut, itβll be hard to have perfect skin.

2. Antioxidants
Antioxidants limit free radical production, which damages the skin. Antioxidants can combat oxidative stress, which breaks down collagen. Vitamins C, A, and E all play a huge role in skin health. Vitamin C, for example, helps boost collagen production.

3. Bone Broth/Collagen
These can both play a huge role in healing the gut, which is extremely important for your skin. Not only that, but collagen (the main structural protein of your skin) and gelatin have been shown to improve skin elasticity and improve moisture content.

4. Shower filter
Tap water is usually loaded with harmful contaminants like fluoride and chlorine which can cause inflammation and oxidative stress on your body. Hard water can clog pores which can cause breakouts. A shower filter can do wonders for both your skin and hair.

5. Reduce blue light
Constant, artificial blue light exposure to your skin can lead to changes in your skin cells, including shrinkage and death, which can speed up aging of your skin. It can also lead to DNA damage which can cause inflammation & breakdown of collagen & elastin.

6. Proper Sleep hygiene
Your body repairs itself while you sleep. It affects the immune system, regulates your cortisol levels, increase your production of collagen, and so much more. All of which play a role in skin health.

8. Hydrate well
When your body's overall hydration levels are low, blood circulation wanes and cells receive less oxygen. Skin cells that lack oxygen appear dull and rough, and wrinkles & fine lines become emphasized.
It is important to drink quality spring water with minerals.
