Food fasting, yes, but cosmetic fasting quesaco?
We all know about food fasting that I practice regularly, even if I am very far from being a master yogi. On the other hand, we are less familiar with cosmetic fasting.
This “radical” fast consists of cleansing yourself once every 2 days and/or greatly reducing the use of cosmetics. If a period was necessary to practice cosmetic fasting, confinement would seem entirely appropriate to me because it is freed from the constraints of representation.
So, 2 evenings a week, for example, I only apply the Hydro-biotic Milk (gentle cleanser) which I use in the shower and that's it ! Clear & fresh skin, completely naked, without other products. I also sometimes practice 24-hour cosmetic fasting, often during the weekend, with just one cream or nothing!
But what virtue can we attribute to cosmetic fasting?
Science has not yet commented on the subject. But from a biological point of view we can already argue that the alternation of “care/no treatment” could maintain a certain autonomy of the skin in the conservation of its antioxidant and nutritional defenses.
An urban legend says that the skin becomes “lazy” from too much beauty products…. If you use products with powerful synthetic preservatives (which is not the case with Novexpert), your bacteria will appreciate this respite, that's for sure!
From a psychological point of view, this is perhaps the beginning of a certain emancipation. Free yourself without seeming like a beauty ritual never questioned... A new way of approaching the beauty and health of your skin from a new angle: what does my skin have REALLY need it?
I'll let you think about your cosmetics consumption to narrow down to the essentials. In the meantime, even if we don't know when the lockdown will be lifted, I vote: Yes to fasting... cosmetic, to stay “young”!
