Cosmetics do not make the skin glowing
Makeup works like a beautiful and good packaging on our skin. This adds a layer, special color and illusion to the skin, which makes the skin look glowing. The whole truth about all cosmetic powders and creams is hidden in this sentence. This means that these cosmetics make the skin appear glowing, but it is not glowing.

The answer is that skin color, its glow and texture all depend on our genes, hormones, environment, diet and health. Most of these things are not in our control. Despite this, we can definitely improve our diet.
Beauty comes from good digestion and metabolism
Although the color of our skin is determined by genes, skin health mainly depends on our digestive health and metabolism. This means that the health of the skin is determined by how our digestive system is and how the nutrients supplied to the body with food are being absorbed.
Dr. Anu Aggarwal, Delhi-based nutritionist and founder of 'OneDietToday', says that apart from this, skin health depends on many other factors, such as how much water we drink throughout the day. How many hours of sleep do you take daily? Do not consume cigarettes or alcohol. What are these factors, see in the graphic.
