The concept of holistic beauty
The philosophy of holistic beauty takes into account the fact that our appearance is intrinsically linked to our emotions, our relationships with others and our environment . It aims to take care of oneself by adopting a healthy lifestyle (balanced diet, regular sports activity, etc.) and a responsible and sustainable lifestyle . We offer products that are in line with the spirit of holistic beauty. Convinced that understanding the causes of certain physical problems such as skin problems, for example, must be treated as a priority instead of trying to camouflage the symptoms.
We constantly believe that to be beautiful on the outside, we must first feel good in our body, in our mind, in our life and in harmony with what surrounds us. Holistic beauty is a whole and consists of acting on the inside so that this is reflected on the outside .
Adopt a healthy lifestyle
Having beautiful skin is all about a healthy lifestyle. If you suffer from sleep disorders, you'll likely notice that your skin lacks radiance and your complexion looks dull. Adopt a regular sleep schedule to promote skin cell regeneration while you sleep.
Physical activity is also recommended for staying fit and maintaining your skin. During exercise, your body releases endorphins that act as a euphoric stimulant. They reduce pain, help reduce stress, and have a beneficial effect on intestinal transit.
Learning to manage your stress should be a priority for you to take proper care of yourself. Chronic stress has a direct effect on your skin. If you don't feel good on the inside, it will show on the outside.
Promote a balanced diet
Diet is one of the first factors you will need to make changes to, if necessary, to promote your good health and therefore the balance of your skin. Food acts as fuel for our body, which needs certain elements. To follow a varied and balanced diet, reduce sugar and stimulants and favor fruits and vegetables. Remember to hydrate yourself regularly with water and infusions. By adopting a balanced diet , you will contribute to the balance of your intestinal microbiota (set of bacteria present in the digestive system). An imbalance in the intestinal microbiota leads to the production of inflammatory molecules responsible for skin diseases (acne, rosacea, eczema, etc.). If it is disrupted, the body will no longer be able to evacuate waste, and this will be seen on the skin: dull complexion, oily skin, etc.
Sometimes, a balanced diet isn't enough to provide the body with everything it needs. In this case, you can take dietary supplements . They provide additional nutrition to relieve ailments or compensate for any deficiencies. They are beneficial for health and rich in minerals, trace elements, antioxidants, active ingredients, amino acids, etc., depending on the formula. The benefits of dietary supplements have been proven time and time again. They are not a substitute for a diet, but rather a complement to it.
Convinced that what happens inside shows on the outside, we design food supplements that respond to specific problems and which have an action aimed at preserving the balance of the microbiota in order to act on different skin and hair problems, etc.
Opt for natural cosmetics
Taking care of yourself also involves using cosmetics. When choosing creams and other products, you should look for formulas adapted to your skin type (combination, oily, dry, normal, sensitive). Not all skin types have the same needs. Take a look at their composition to choose a range of products without endocrine disruptors. Before breaking the bank buying numerous cosmetics at exorbitant prices, make a list of the essentials you need:
- A makeup remover
- A cleaner
- A moisturizer
- Sun protection
- A scrub
In your daily beauty routine, you should focus on the positive rather than only seeing your flaws. Adopt a positive intention and energy that will highlight the moment you are experiencing and its effects: relieving tightness, nourishing your skin and hydrating it… Apply your creams by massaging your face and neck to relax and improve the texture and overall appearance of your skin.
What is clean beauty?
Clean beauty complements the concept of holistic beauty. It promotes the use of "clean," natural, and minimalist products (which do not include questionable ingredients). Consumers now expect more transparency from brands regarding the components of cosmetics and their manufacturing. Companies must therefore highlight this information and favor natural ingredients to design their products and minimize their impact on the environment (carbon footprint, eco-designed packaging, cruelty-free products, etc.). Buyers are more likely to turn to brands that share the same values as them and that are committed to this (donations to associations, defense of certain causes, etc.).
Ingredients of natural origin
Thus, we speak of clean beauty when the cosmetic offers a "clean" formula with a maximum of ingredients of natural origin and without substances harmful to humans. In this context, it is recommended to avoid products with synthetic products, parabens... Certain labels allow to attest a guarantee of quality and will reassure consumers. The European regulations, in force in France, have tightened and are today one of the strictest in the world compared to cosmetics with a significant quantity of prohibited ingredients, because they are considered dangerous.
Low impact on the environment
A clean cosmetic product also seeks to reduce its impact on the environment. If this issue is important to you, look for brands that offer products in packaging made from recycled, recyclable, or biodegradable materials . Some companies have even introduced the option of refilling containers to limit the production of waste that is harmful to the planet. Labels can also help you gain insight into issues of eco-responsibility, environmental protection, and fair trade.
