Goodbye, swelling!
It may be first thing in the morning when we wake up, at those times of the month when our hormones change and we tend to retain more fluids, or even during a peak of stress and tiredness, but the truth is that the feeling of bloating haunts many women, causing discomfort and messing with our self-esteem.
Puffiness - whether on the face, around the eyes or in the abdominal area - can have many causes, such as diet, excess alcohol, lack of hydration, hormonal changes, stress and even hours of sleep, but the good thing is that whatever the reason for feeling puffy, there is a solution! We need to get to the root of the problem and take action, either by changing unhelpful habits or by working with our bodies in a completely natural way, supporting the metabolism and helping to eliminate toxins that are clearly in excess!
Good habits
It's super important to pay attention to your body and the signals it's sending you. If you wake up with a puffy face when you've slept badly, you obviously need more rest. If this happens after a night of drinking alcohol, you might want to cut down on your consumption. If you feel abdominal discomfort after eating legumes, such as beans, or cruciferous vegetables, such as broccoli, you might want to choose the days you eat them, to focus more on the nutritional benefits and less on the bloated feeling in your belly.
In all circumstances, it's always a good idea to pay attention to the amount of salt you eat, because it naturally causes fluid retention that causes bloating, but also to reduce sugar (an inflammatory factor) and drink plenty of water!
All this without underestimating the power of plants and beauty tools! By combining the benefits of botanical active ingredients present in plants and the action of tools such as facial brushes and gua sha, you'll be able to tackle the problem head-on and say goodbye to that uncomfortable feeling of swelling. We'll explain everything.
Nourish your light side
Your anti-puffiness routine starts from the inside, and that, of course, shows on the outside. To do this, we recommend starting your day by giving your body a detox boost with our wonderful Detox Drops (4 pipettes in a glass of water, on an empty stomach to increase the detox effect, and you're done) or, if you prefer, our Super Detox Capsules,
Making the most of medicinal plants, we have developed these two products to help you fight abdominal bloating and cleanse from the inside out on a daily basis, stimulating the release of toxins accumulated in the body and boosting the metabolism.
Our Detox drops are formulated with chlorophyll, which is perfect for helping the liver and intestinal flora function properly, essential for easier digestive processes.
Our Super Detox Capsules are a bioavailable formula based on medicinal plants that stimulate digestion and the release of toxins accumulated in the body. Take 2 capsules daily, with or without food, to boost metabolism and reduce abdominal bloating.
In addition to these beauty essentials to help you reduce bloating from the inside out, if you're in the mood for a detox that's as effective as it is satiating and delicious, why not try this anti-bloating smoothie with raspberries, bananas and ginger to help you feel lighter and lose volume?
On the skin
Change starts from the inside, of course, but we can also reduce swelling by massaging the most problematic areas with beauty tools that have been used for centuries in traditional medicine, with excellent results.
As with the body, the skin of the face can also be activated with a special tool, in this case the Facial Brushis designed to perform a gentle detox by dry brushing the skin of the face, stimulating the lymphatic system and activating the release of toxins and cell regeneration. This method is wonderful for reducing swelling because it will re-energize the skin, leaving it exfoliated and clean, boosting its elasticity, firmness and radiance. To refresh and revitalize your skin, we recommend using the brush first thing in the morning, gently but firmly rubbing it across your face two or three times a week..
Another very simple and incredible way to reduce swelling on the face is to give it a massage with Gua Sha - on any of the crystals, each with its own properties. Amethyst, of Jade, of White Quartz or Rose Quartz. If you use this styling tool in the right way (repeating the movements between 5 and 10 times always from bottom to top and starting from the center of the face to the hairline) and if you do it consistently, we promise you'll notice the difference.
