Ingredients for Your Skin Boost Infusion
As the winter chill sets in, our focus naturally shifts to cozy nights, warm blankets, and the pursuit of quality sleep. For those with sensitive skin, especially during the colder months, achieving a restful night can be elusive.
Dry, itchy skin or chronic conditions often disrupt our sleep, impacting not only our nightly rest but also our overall wellness. And in turn, not getting enough rest can affect the resilience of our skin. It’s a tricky cycle to break!
Sleep for Skin Health: A Winter Wellness Essential
Sleep is a cornerstone of overall wellness, playing a pivotal role in the body’s ability to heal and repair. The need for extra sleep in colder months is entirely normal. The key is to aim for 7-10 hours of quality, restful sleep. However, achieving this can be challenging, particularly for those with sensitive skin.
To help you relax before bedtime and enhance the quality of your sleep, Balmonds in-house nutritionist, Farah Mehrez, has crafted a soothing, skin-boosting infusion. The process of preparing and infusing alone can be a calming ritual, setting the stage for a restful night.
Ingredients for Your Skin Boost Infusion:
- Chamomile: packed with antioxidants, chamomile acts as a mild sedative, inducing sleepiness and reducing stress.
- Lemons: high in vitamin C, essential for collagen production and wound healing, lemons also contain anti-inflammatory extracts that promote skin integrity.
- Ginger: known for its anti-inflammatory properties, ginger complements lemons to soothe and support the immune system.
- Honey: besides adding natural sweetness, honey may contribute to anti-bacterial activity, enhancing the infusion’s skin-boosting benefits.
Brewing Your Skin Boost Infusion:
- Juice the lemon and add to the chopped ingredients in a cup or teapot.
- Pour boiled water over the mixture and let it infuse for 3-6 minutes.
