What does glow mean in terms of cosmetics?
You may be wondering what on earth glow is. Glow is one of the visible and also tangible attributes of our skin quality. In science, this famed glow, which is also known as radiance, is referred to as our skin’s ability to reflect light. In terms of our facial skin, glow therefore means a fresh, youthful, pure, smooth, pore-free, even and radiant complexion. If our skin is lacking in glow, it often appears tired and pale and sometimes even has a yellowish or greyish undertone. There may be various reasons for this.
Glow takes more than just cosmetics
Obtaining and maintaining a radiant complexion takes more than just applying suitable and nourishing cosmetic products, because glow is also closely related to your radiance. Besides healthy skin, the most important basis for this is also your physical and mental health – and therefore both your external and internal care.
In addition to choosing the right products, the following points are therefore also important to achieve that coveted glow effect on your face:
- Reduce stress, because you then also reduce your stressed radiance.
- Get sufficient sleep for regeneration and relaxation.
- Do not smoke, because this speeds up the skin’s ageing process.
- Eat a healthy and varied diet and drink sufficient fluid in order to supply your cells with moisture. Vitamins and trace elements are important to your general health and performance.
- Get plenty of exercise, because that promotes the circulation, improves the supply of oxygen to your cells and allows you to relieve stress at the same time.
- Consume detox drinks or detox food to detoxify your body and boost your metabolism.
- Good, moisturising skin care that matches your skin type.
- The right make-up: bronzers, powders and highlighters are the ideal beauty aids.
