Boosting the Benefits of Skin Cycling with Skin Supplements

Skin Cycling in a Healthy Routine 

Skin cycling is a concept developed by Dr Whitney Bowes, a board-certified dermatologist, it is now a viral skincare trend taking TikTok by storm. Using skin cycling in a healthy skin routine facilitates and enhances the natural processes of the skin, but you can support your healthy skin routine with supplements to go one step further, boosting skin health from the inside out. Nude Health’s beauty bundle does just that, and while you sit back and enjoy your nightly skin routine, allow our all-natural beauty supplements bundle, with hand-picked ingredients, to nourish from the deepest layers of your skin for a glow that radiates confidence and embraces your natural beauty. Experience the transformative power of Nude Health’s ‘You Beauty’ complete with collagen, hyaluronic acid and vitamin E, because your radiance deserves nothing less.

Understanding How to Care for Your Skin

Skin cycling was born out of a skincare overload crisis, where too many products end up blocking skin pores, decreasing absorption rate and making skin dull. When you craft your own skin cycling routine, you let various products work their magic over time, syncing up with your skin’s natural cell cycle. Amp it up with skin-loving supplements that work harmoniously with your skin from the inside out, you have the power to create a full-on skin health experience. These supplements complete a holistic skin routine, they boost skin renewal and supercharge your skincare products for maximum absorption.

Beauty trends will come and go, and there are always new products on the market, but one fact remains true: for beautiful skin, you need a solid nutritional foundation. Eating a nutrient-dense diet, full of essential fatty acids, antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, along with drinking plenty of water, can help nourish your skin and keep it healthy. It can be hard to get all the necessary nutrients from diet alone, though, which is where skin supplements come in. Ingredients like vitamins C and E, collagen, hyaluronic acid, and zinc, all of which are found in Nude Health’s ‘You Beauty’ supplements, can help your skin repair itself and support skin cell turnover.

The Natural Skin Cycle

When we talk about skin cycling, are we talking about the natural skin cycle? No, skin cycling is a very specific way of using skincare products, in four-day cycles, to boost their efficacy and promote healthy skin. The skin cycle is the skin’s natural renewal process, which usually occurs over 28 to 30 days.

Getting into a healthy skin cycling routine is simple. Over the course of four days, you focus on different parts of your skincare routine, to allow your products to work on your skin without overloading it. On the first night, you exfoliate, using gentle, chemical exfoliators that won’t lead to microtears like physical exfoliators can. The goal of this is to slough off dead skin cells. The second night, retinols are a good choice, because they have anti-aging, anti-acne properties. You can moisturise before you apply retinols for a gentler treatment that still provides the desired effects. On the third and fourth nights, you focus on moisturising and nourishing your skin, allowing it to recover. Of course, you will need to tweak this routine as you see how your unique skin responds, but as beauty trends go, skin cycling is based on scientific principles.

Our bodies have about 19 million skin cells, and these cells are continually being replaced, as the skin regenerates itself. If you stop to think about it, your current skin will be replaced sometime in the next one to three months! The skin cycle begins in the deepest layer of the epidermis, where brand new cells are formed and work their way to the surface. The old cells fall off of your body and are replaced by these fresh, new cells, and this process is the skin cycle. When we are young, the skin cycle can be completed in as little as 14 days. As we move past middle age and into older adulthood, that time can stretch to 45 to 60 days, or even 60 to 90 days. When this happens, dead skin cells build up on the surface of the skin, leading to sagging and wrinkles, trapping bacteria and discoloration, and generally making our skin look dull and unhealthy.

We can, and should, promote a more rapid skin cycle! A 28 day cycle, or even faster, should be the goal, and you can speed the process by maintaining a healthy lifestyle and skincare routine. Eating a nutritious diet, drinking plenty of water, supplementing with the right antioxidants and vitamins, and rinsing your skin at least twice a day can boost your skin cycle and lead to healthier skin. Paying attention to your microbiome helps too, and nourishing it with the right probiotics and prebiotics can help your skin remain healthy and youthful looking. Additionally, you will need to get adequate sleep and protect your skin from environmental stressors like UV rays and pollution.

As you work to promote a healthier skin cycle, be patient. All of the strategies you employ, from a healthier diet to nourishing supplements to skin cycling your products will all take time to work, so you should not expect to see results overnight. Your old skin cells need time to completely slough off of your face and allow the newly rejuvenated ones to shine through, nurtured by your skincare ingredients. It takes anywhere from one to three skin cycles for your skin to begin to show improvement. You can probably expect to start seeing renewal in about 90 days.

Targeting Different Phases of the Skin Cycle

The skincare supplements from Nude Health are specifically formulated to support your skin health throughout all the different phases of the skin cycle. In the early days of your skin cycle, cleansing and renewal of your skin cells are supported by the zinc, grape seed extract, vitamins, and hyaluronic acid found in our You Beauty supplement. As the cycle continues, the marine collagen found in the supplement will support the skin’s own collagen production. In the late stages of the cycle, the antioxidant power of vitamin C, vitamin E, and grape seed extract work to protect your skin as the new cells take centre stage. Throughout the process, the mighty vitamin Bs work with the other nutrients to provide antioxidants, support a healthy immune system, and promote healthier, more youthful skin.
