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.
