Japanese skin care

1. Exfoliate with azuki beans

Since the period of Nara (710-794), this red bean has not only been a part of Japanese women’s diet but also has been very effective for their healthy-looking skin. Azuki Beans, made into a fine powder, is a great natural solution for those who have acne or blackheads or have fine lines. These beans are rich in antioxidants and contain a natural foaming agent called saponin that makes the pores tight and clean. It’s effective immediately and helps to remove dead skin cells, radiates the skin, and removes dirt by increasing blood circulation.

2. Follow a conventional balanced diet

Whatever we take inside our body, is directly proportional to how we look outside. A conventional Japanese meal has one soup, rice, fish, and three vegetable items to have a well-balanced diet. All these mixtures have very high vitamin quantity and omega-3 fatty acids which decrease the toxin production inside the body (responsible for skin inflammation and aging).

Other things which are rich in keratin and iodine (like kelp and seaweed) are also there in every Japanese diet, both of them make skin healthy, and make nails and hair shinier. As fish is there in their diet, it’s richer in protein and has low fat as compared to red meat and this small diet of mixed vegetables gives them essential minerals and vitamins.

3. Skin nourishment with rice bran

For many years, the Japanese have appreciated rice bran and its amazing benefits. As it’s rich in antioxidants and other important minerals, rice bran is used in facials, body treatments, and scrubs to reduce premature aging, reduce acne, and make skin softer and even-toned. Rice bran has been famous for centuries and is easily available at pharmacy shops. One can even make it easily at home. It helps in keeping skin moisturized, increases blood circulation, and reduces sun damage and dark spots.

4. Probiotics for skin health

If one asks you how Japanese habits toward their healthy lifestyle make their skin better, the simple answer is “Probiotics”. Your gut health is directly proportional to the health of your skin and the best part is Japanese women know this. Hence, they have made probiotics a big part of every Japanese diet.

Every person has natural bacteria that improve their immune system and reduce bad bacteria. If this sensitive balance is not maintained, colon inflammation increases triggering acne and skin inflammation. This is where probiotics help. They can balance skin and bacteria inside. They are very useful in damaged skin barrier repair which might have been started because of excessive bacteria
