Allergies, histamine & skin.

Learn what to avoid to help dry and inflamed, allergic skin during the

Pollen counts this year are OUT OF CONTROL! Historical highs in pollen are leading people to severe seasonal allergies, sleep issues because of it and skin problems.

People who experience seasonal allergies tend to experience dry, itchy, irritated skin. Also, histamine naturally stimulates oil production in the skin, so when you take antihistamines, it can dry the skin out. Combat dry skin with the proper lotion for you and your allergic condition.

When histamine is released in the body, the skin tells a story of the internal battle: it gets itchy, irritated and inflamed. If you already have skin issues like acne, rosacea, eczema or dermatitis, it could make those conditions worse when pollen counts are high.

Natural antihistamines are easier on the skin and the body and can provide relief from allergy symptoms as well as skin issues. Quercetin is a natural antihistamine that is found in apples, onions and berries. There are also quercetin supplements sold that can be taken daily.

During the height of spring and pollen counts, it’s helpful to avoid high-histamine foods so your body isn’t overwhelmed with reactions, making you feel and look worse. High histamine food consists of anything “old” or “aged”. Skip the left-overs, avoid aged, smoked, preserved, “sour” or picked food. Seafood is often the worst for histamine counts. Some fruits and veggies are also high in histamine, those include avocado, banana, tomatoes and worst of all: citrus fruits. Eating fresh meat, fresh veggies and fruit (accept the ones listed above) will help with your allergy battle.

As for your irritated, allergic skin, switching to a calming skincare regimen during spring that’s more moisturizing may help with redness and dry skin issues during high pollen times. For more information, schedule a free skin consult today to find your answers.

Lazy Saturdays are a MUST

Lazy Saturdays are good for the skin. Enduge in doing nothing to lessen stress.

How do you relax? Lazy Saturdays are my favorite! Stress release is essential for health skin and a glowing complexion.

Stress has a direct effect on skin health and beauty. When we are stressed out, our skin barrier function doesn’t work like it should. Moisture is not held in properly and skin gets dry and flakey and speeds up wrinkle formation. Applying a properly formulated lipid rich moisturizer has been proven to reverse this cascade of events.
