Your skin says a lot more about your health than you’d think and it actually sends you little warning signs.
- Forehead
The forehead relates to the nervous system and digestive system so your breakouts are likely due to stress or a diet high in sugar. Steer clear of of processed foods and pick up de-stressing techniques.
- Chin
The state of your chin is represented by your hormones and stress levels. If you’re a woman, you’ll likely have breakouts during your menstrual cycle.
- Eyes
Puffy and swollen eyes are usually a result if you not getting enough shut-eye. Try going to bed a little earlier than usual and make sure you pillow is nice and clean.
Dark patches under the eyes can be a result of your diet choices. Try drinking more water and eating a more balanced diet.
If your eyelids are puffy and you get plenty of sleep, you are probably having an allergic reaction. Examine your make up sponges or eyeliner and mascara.
- Skin
If no moisturizer is dealing with your dry, itchy skin then it could either be eczema or the climate.
- Lips
Dry lips can be cause by an allergic reaction, either to toothpaste or a lipstick/lip balm.
- Nails
Discoloured nails are a sign of internal issues- vitamin deficiencies, lupus and possible kidney damage.
- Body
Random bruises on your body could be a sign of internal bleeding.
