Summer Skin Care: The Power of White Soybean & Job's Tears Powder
How to Protect Your Skin During Summer
Summer's strong UV rays and high temperatures can easily tire and dry out your skin. In this newsletter, we'll share how to keep your skin healthy during summer by using a natural face pack made with white soybean powder and Job's tears powder. We'll also dive into some interesting facts and health tips related to these ingredients.
Benefits of White Soybean and Job's Tears Powder
White soybean powder has been a beloved ingredient in traditional Korean beauty routines for centuries. White soybeans contain higher levels of isoflavones compared to other beans, which help improve skin tone and elasticity. Isoflavones are plant-based estrogens that play a key role in keeping your skin hydrated and healthy. Additionally, white soybeans are rich in vitamin E and antioxidants, which protect your skin from UV damage and help prevent aging.
Job's tears powder is widely used in traditional Chinese medicine and is excellent for soothing and moisturizing the skin. Job's tears have strong anti-inflammatory properties, making them perfect for calming irritated skin during the hot summer months. They also contain albumin and fatty acids, which provide deep hydration to your skin. Regular use of Job's tears, whether applied to the skin or consumed, can help maintain skin elasticity and create a smooth complexion.
How to Make a Natural Face Pack
Creating a natural face pack is simple, but the results can be impressive. Especially during summer, it’s important to use packs made of gentle, natural ingredients. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 2 tablespoons of white soybean powder
- 1 tablespoon of Job's tears powder
- Water or milk, as needed
- Mix the white soybean and Job's tears powders in a bowl until evenly combined.
- Gradually add water or milk to achieve a creamy consistency. Using milk can provide extra nourishment to the skin.
- Apply evenly to your face, relax for 15-20 minutes, and then rinse off with lukewarm water.
Safety Tips
Even natural ingredients can cause allergic reactions, so it’s wise to do a patch test on your inner arm first. If your skin feels sensitive or irritated while using the pack, wash it off immediately
and discontinue use. It’s recommended to use this pack 1-2 times a week. Overuse may stress your skin instead of benefiting it.
Additional Health Tips: Maintaining Healthy Skin in Summer
Beyond using face packs, there are some essential habits to maintain your skin’s health during summer. First and foremost, staying hydrated is crucial. Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated from within, and always apply sunscreen when going outside during peak sunlight hours. Additionally, consuming fresh fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins and antioxidants will greatly benefit your skin.
Fruits rich in vitamin C, such as strawberries, oranges, and kiwis, are particularly helpful in maintaining bright and even-toned skin. Regular consumption of these fruits can help reduce UV damage and keep your complexion radiant. Since skin can easily get fatigued during summer, adequate rest and a balanced diet are also key to maintaining healthy skin.
