Mind & Skin: How Stress Affects Your Glow (and Ways to Restore It)

Skin & Stress: How Your Mind Impacts Your Complexion (and How to Fix It)

In our busy lives, stress has become a daily companion. While it disrupts our sleep and mood, it also shows up on our skin. Breakouts, dull complexion, redness, dryness… the skin is a true mirror of our emotional state. Luckily, simple habits and the right products can help you regain a calm, glowing complexion. Here’s everything you need to know.

Stress and Its Effects on the Skin

Stress triggers an increased production of cortisol, the stress hormone. As a result:

  • The skin produces more sebum, leading to pimples and acne.
  • It becomes more reactive: redness, itching, tightness.
  • It may look dull and tired, as microcirculation slows down.
  • The cell regeneration process is disrupted, accelerating skin aging.

🌿 The Right Habits to Soothe Your Skin (and Your Mind)

1. Gentle Cleansing
Choose a mild cleanser, free from soap and harsh fragrances. The goal is to protect the skin barrier without irritating already sensitive skin.

2. Adopt Relaxing Rituals
Taking time for yourself is already a form of care. Once or twice a week:

  • Apply a hydrating or anti-stress mask
  • Use a facial oil with self-massage, applying gentle pressure to the temples and neck
