From dumping your face in a bowl filled with ice to trying handy tools, these icy methods will change your skincare game!
Pre-wedding skincare checklist can be hectic both for the groom and the bride, but these icy hacks will give you radiant skin and a healthy glow.
Ice helps increase blood circulation by activating nerves around the cheeks and eyes. It also helps achieve a lit-from-within glow. Make-up artists also often swear by ice facials as a primer as using ice on the skin helps minimise pores.
“The cold temperature helps reduce inflammation and puffiness, especially around the eyes,” says Dr Geetika Mittal Gupta, cosmetologist and founder of Issac Luxe, “It can help tighten the skin and minimise the appearance of pores. The cold stimulates blood flow, giving your skin a healthy, natural glow. It can calm redness and irritation, making it great for sensitive skin.”
But what about the body? A whole-body cryotherapy session can highly restore you from head to toe. As you enter the cryotherapy chamber your body is exposed to sub-zero temperatures, during the process, the body increases its oxygen levels and certain proteins decrease inflammation. When you exit the cryotherapy chamber and return to normal temperature, this oxygen rich blood moves back through the body for an instant physical and mental rejuvenation.
Ice therapy works wonders on acne prone skin as well, it helps reduce oil and lightens blemishes by fastening the soft tissue healing. However, if you have dry skin, immediately follow up with a hydrating moisturiser. Always remember to pay attention to your skin’s response, If you have any concern or side effects it is always advisable to consult a skincare professional.
