It is well known that how you treat your body can affect the appearance of your skin, but did you know that your mental health also plays a big role in that too? Mandy Slusarczyk, owner and esthetician at The Art of Beauty, is a strong believer in practicing skincare as a lifestyle, not just as a short daily routine. In addition to her advice about treating your body well for radiant skincare results, she also urges clients to treat their mind well, too. Stress, depression, and an overall negative headspace can all damage the skin and leave you looking dull and fatigued. She recommends dedicating time throughout the week to self-care. This can take the form of meditation, relaxation, or reflection—any activity that allows you to care for your own physical, emotional and mental wellbeing. By focusing on boosting your mental and emotional health, you are also improving your physical health and outer beauty. Tired eyes, stress-related acne, and bad coping habits such as picking at your skin should all begin to lessen as your psychological state improves. A positive, stress-free mental state is just another piece of Mandy's advice for skincare as a lifestyle.
