[YAKSON] GREAT FOODS TO KEEP YOUR SKIN MOISTURIZED

Are you worried about dry and rough skin by the harsh winds and the temperature difference between day and night?  

These days, cold and dry winds break down skin, make skin dull and flaky, and may cause trouble and wrinkles. Therefore, it is good to keep your skin moisturized by using cream or pack.

Especially, some foods are good for keeping your skin moisturized, and I would like to introduce them for your skin.

1. Avocado

Avocado, which contains a large amount of linoleic acid, an unsaturated fatty acid, is one of the essential ingredients for skin health. By protecting the epithelial cells, it not only prevents water loss but also helps to restore damaged skin by forming a skin barrier. Especially, vitamin E is abundant as well, so it can prevent skin aging by decomposing active oxygen which is the cause of wrinkles, spots and freckles.

2. Carrots

A lack of vitamin A can make dry skin and it reduces skin’s elasticity, and easily causes fine wrinkles. Carrots contain a lot of beta-carotene, which is converted into vitamin A in the body after ingestion. Carrots not only can quickly restore damaged skin barrier, but also help to make your skin smooth and hydrated.

3. Pumpkin

A pumpkin is an excellent food for strengthening skin elasticity. In addition, the pumpkin contains vitamin E, a typical antioxidant. Vitamin E protects skin from active oxygen and forms a protective skin barrier, helping to keep skin moisturized.

4. Walnuts

Walnuts contain alpha linolenic acid, the only vegetable omega-3 fatty acid in nuts, which strengthens skin, helps to make moisturizing skin, and prevents wrinkles. Particularly, alpha linolenic acid is not produced in the body so that you need to eat. As protein is abundant, blood circulation is facilitated and it also helps prevent hair loss.

5. Dark Chocolate

Cacao contains a large amount of the antioxidant flavonol, a type of polyphenol that has the effect of increasing skin cell density and enhancing moisture retention. These polyphenols increase the elasticity of the skin, which can help to moisturize the skin. However, the above benefits are only contained in sugar-free dark chocolate containing more than 70% cacao content only.

Winter is a difficult season to keep your skin moisturized. Please make your skin smooth and moisturized with a variety of ways.
