Try these tips to keep dry skin, chapped lips and limp hair at bay this Ramadan.
Increase your vitamin C
This is the best way to give your hair a little boost, as vitamin C stimulates the production of collagen which strengthens your hair.Avoid sugar
Sugar increases oil production, which can dehydrate the skin and leave it looking lackluster. It also binds to and damages proteins, which can lead to saggy skin and wrinkles.Use a natural remedy
Rub sunflower seed oil or coconut oil over your body after a hot bath to increase hydration.Increase your good fats
Keep your scalp and hair hydrated with foods that are rich in Omega-3 fatty acids. Add foods such as salmon, mackerel, avocado and walnuts to your iftar or suhoor menu.Hydrate during meal times
Drink as much water as you can during suhoor and iftar. Not only will this help retain your skin’s vitality, but it will also help you stay hydrated the following day.Get a good night’s sleep
Your body recovers and repairs itself when you sleep, and this goes for skin and hair too. This is when your skin makes new collagen, which keeps wrinkles and sagging at bay.
