What Does Nutrition Have To Do With Skincare?

Just as one must feed his/her body to work properly, the skin

needs nutrients as well in order to maintain health. We can

do this in two ways: consuming nutrients and applying

them topically.

Topical VS. Consumption Methods for Skincare

TopicalApplying nutrients directly

to the skin (i.e. face creams, cleansers, masks,

etc.)

Benefits:

• Usually instant results.

• Protecting/ correcting

outer layers of skin

• Preventing damage

from beginning

superficially

ConsumptionTaking in nutrients orally;

eating

Benefits:

• Correcting deeper

damage not visible (yet)

on the surface of skin.

• Creating a healthy

foundation for correct

skin function and

appearance.

• Preventing damage from

beginning in the deeper

layers of skin

The skin is a

permeable

barrier, and so

anything

applied

directly to the

skin has a

chance of

passing

through the

barrier and

into the body.

When nutrients

are consumed,

they are

dispersed to

where they are

needed once

they are

broken down.

Nutrients such

as protein,

vitamins,

minerals and

fat

components

are used to

fortify the skin.

Nutrients from small intestine pass through intestinal cells and into blood stream

Nutrients are then transported to where they are needed

Working Together

Product applied to the skin cannot penetrate enough to reach the deeper layers of skin, where some problems start

Whatever problems topically applied nutrients can’t handle, nutrients absorbed from the body help to combat issues below the surface of skin

MacronutrientsAnd their function in the skin

Protein: Helps keep the skin strong by providing strong “building blocks” for healthy skin.

Fat: Helps keep the skin’s moisture barrier working so there is a balance between oiliness and dryness on the surface.

Carbohydrates: Provides materials to build structure within skin cells to allow for correctly function.

MicronutrientsAnd their function in the skin

Vitamins: Each vitamin provides different functions. The most significant ones are:

• Vitamin C is an antioxidant and helps protect the skin from damage

• Vitamin A support strength of the skin• Vitamin E provides hydration and antioxidant

protection• Vitamin B provides strength

Minerals: There are a million different kinds of minerals that do different things. The significant ones are:

• Iron supplies oxygen to the skin• Magnesium helps to detoxify the skin
