Does Liver Health Affect Your Skin?

Does Liver Health Affect Your Skin?

Organs couldn’t function without each other, and your skin is no different. It relies on your entire wellness to thrive, but many people don’t realize how essential it is to have a comprehensive skincare routine. Read more about the importance your liver has on your skin’s health to better understand how to improve and maintain your appearance.

1. It Processes Everything

Your liver’s primary function is to remove toxins in your blood and process them into bile. Afterward, the blood that exits your liver is clean and ready to support your health.

Your liver also regulates your thyroid hormone production, which can clear your skin or cause breakouts. Although you might not always think of your skin as an organ, it’s intricately connected with your liver.

Everything you eat and drink contains nutrients, ingredients, and chemicals that will pass through your liver. When it can’t process everything, the rest of your body doesn’t function properly because your bloodstream is polluted. Having less-clean blood and oxygen means you’ll have poorly performing skin cells.

You can easily support your liver and skin health by drinking more water. Beverages with water and no added ingredients are easiest on your liver because they provide liquid with little need for processing. You’ll flush toxins out and prevent them from affecting your skin.

2. It Banishes Toxins

As toxins build up in your bloodstream, your body will expel them in other ways if your liver can’t handle them. That includes processing the toxins through your sweat glands. The sweat will be more toxic than usual, leading to skin irritations and potential acne.

Revamping your diet is an excellent way to strengthen your liver. Try adding more whole foods free of processed ingredients and you’ll have an anti-inflammatory diet. This type of diet typically includes many foods high in antioxidants, which may reverse liver damage caused by poor diets.

Every unhealthy food you swap with fruits, veggies, or another healthy alternative will support your skin health. Look for options that lack artificial ingredients or sweeteners to get started. A nutritionist can always assist with your dietary needs while you’re figuring out what works with your lifestyle.

3. It Breaks Down Fats

You might not think of fat as a toxin, but it’s another nutrient your liver expertly breaks down. It comes from foods and drinks, so your body will have more of it on some days than others. When your liver is too inefficient, the fat remains in your bloodstream. Sebaceous glands will try to expel the fats to clear your bloodstream, which often results in more oily skin and clogged pores.

While protecting your pores by ingesting better foods and drinks, you should also protect them from outside factors. Applying sunscreen each morning is an excellent way to shield yourself from ultraviolet (UV) rays, even on cloudy days. When inner or outer factors don’t damage your cells, your skin will thrive.

4. Revitalize Your Skincare Routine

Your liver health directly affects your skin, so take control of your health and appearance with these tips. They’re easy to work into any routine, even if you’re always busy. Eating healthier and drinking more water could be the secret to the gorgeous skin you’ve been working to achieve.

Dewey Crush Introduces New Skinny Orange Crush

Dewey Crush Introduces New Skinny Orange Crush

If you’re looking to bring some better-for-you booze to your Thanksgiving feast, Dewey Crush, the original craft vodka and crushed fruit cocktail brand, has just launched a Skinny version of its beloved canned cocktail – Skinny Orange Crush!

This delicious spirit-based cocktail is blended with Vodka & Triple Sec, Lemon-Lime Soda, and all natural, freshly crushed orange juice. Made with the same ingredients beloved by Dewey Crush fans already, Skinny cans are lower in calories (130 to be exact), lower in sugar, and contain 4.5% alcohol, which makes for an ideally blended & balanced cocktail to sip on as we head into the busy holiday season.

Dewey Crush’s flavor-filled lineup includes Lemon, Grapefruit, Watermelon.

Whether its Thanksgiving or Christmas, Dewey Crush is available DTC in 32 states including California and in select stores along the East Coast.

About Dewey Crush

“Those legendary days spent hanging out on the beach with your crew, or taking in some live music at the bars. And of course, those epic nights spent reveling with friends at The Starboard – the source of our inspiration. When the concept of Dewey Crush was just a twinkle in our eye, it was the vibe, atmosphere, and energy of The Starboard that gave us the motivation to fully hatch our canned cocktail plan.

We wanted to make something that captured the essence of East Coast summers. Something that you could take home that’d spark an amazing memory from an unforgettable summer. A drink that you could share with friends and family to make new moments.
Ever wanted to bottle a moment? Well, we did the next best thing and canned it. So you can enjoy the taste of summer wherever you are.”

4 Natural Ways to Keep Your Skin Moisturized

4 Natural Ways to Keep Your Skin Moisturized

Whether you have a dry skin type frequently or it’s a new development as the seasons change, keeping your skin moisturized can save you a lot of irritation while improving confidence in your appearance. Fortunately, there are dozens of remedies to treat dry skin, and most of them require little change to your normal regimen.

Before you head to your dermatologist or the skin care section of your local drugstore, let’s take a look at some of the best ways to naturally attract and retain moisture in your skin.

1. Drink More Water

Our first tip is the most obvious — keep your moisture levels up by increasing your water intake. Most people don’t drink enough water throughout their day, and your skin may be paying for it. If you want to decrease your risk of dehydration:

  • Find a good water bottle: Keeping a water bottle on hand ensures you can sip on it any time you feel thirsty. Find a reusable bottle you love and decorate it so you never want it to leave your side.
  • Make your water fun to drink: Don’t like drinking normal water? Any water is better than none. Try drinking more sparkling water or water infused with fruit to add extra flavor.
  • Cut your caffeine intake: Caffeine can dehydrate you. If you drink a lot of coffee or other high-caffeine drinks, you may be lowering the moisture levels in your body, even if you drink enough water. Try substituting coffee with herbal and low-caffeine teas.

2. Use Moisturizers and Sunscreen

If you think about your skin’s moisture, you likely already use a moisturizer regularly. But what about sunscreen? When applied after moisturizer, sunscreen creates a barrier that retains water inside and prevents UV rays from damaging skin and further affecting your natural moisture barrier.

Follow these moisturizer and sunscreen tips:

  • Apply directly after bathing: Swimming, showering, washing your hands and other water-based activities deliver moisture right to your skin. Make sure it stays there by applying your skin care products as soon as possible after you’re finished.
  • Reapply often: Sunscreen in particular has a limited life span. If you’re going to be outside for a while, reapply it every two hours or more often if you’re swimming.
  • Look for humectants, sealants and emollients: When deciding which sunscreen and moisturizers to use, look for ones with humectants, which attract moisture, sealants to keep moisture close to the skin, and emollients that fill the space between skin cells to prevent water from escaping.

3. Eat More Seafood

Lobster, sardines, oysters and other delicious tastes of the sea — a decadent, tropical meal can be more than a good time for your mouth. Seafood is high in omega-3 fatty acids, which can give your skin that radiant glow you love while protecting it from free radicals, like UV rays and smog. It’s also a good source of fish oil, which can prevent or ease acne breakouts.

Certain types of seafood are high in other minerals, too. Salmon is packed with vitamin A, while tuna can boost your vitamin D levels. These nutrients improve wellness from the inside out, enhancing bodily functions for all organs, skin included.

4. Avoid Dry Air and Irritants

Sometimes, the reason your skin is dry may have more to do with your environment than your skin type. If your moisturizing measures aren’t working as well as you’d hoped, it may be time to consider external factors.

First, equip your home and workspace with a humidifier. Humidifiers give your skin a constant boost of quality air to fortify its barriers. Then, explore whether you may be unknowingly exposing yourself to other irritants.

Irritants can range from uncomfortable textures to personal allergens. Common irritants include fragrance products, wool and textured fabrics, soaps, detergents and plants.

Start Experimenting Today

As you can see, there are several methods for moisturizing your skin and bettering that natural glow. Try them one by one to discover which works best, or incorporate them all into your daily routine to experience better wellness overall.

Kiva Confections Brings Back Cannabis Infused Gravy

Kiva Confections Brings Back Cannabis Infused Gravy

It’s the most unlikely mashup you never saw coming — and it’ll be great on your mashed potatoes! Cannabis leader Kiva Confections is doing it yet again, with an unthinkable combination that will satisfy countless savory teeth and lovers of November’s big feast.

Kiva Confections is officially bringing back their limited edition cannabis infused ‘Kiva Turkey Gravy’ for the second year ahead of the holiday season! Just in time to take your Thanksgiving or Friendsgiving dinner to a higher level, this cheeky take on a normally mundane holiday staple is back after its explosively viral debut in 2019, and is available beginning today, for purchase at dispensaries across California for just $5!

With increasing social, political, and cultural divisiveness driving apart families and friends, Kiva Cannabis-Infused Gravy is back to unite us all around the dinner table. Turkey, mashed potatoes, awkward conversation – you can drown them all in the flavors of rosemary, thyme, and oregano. And thanks to 10MG of THC, your household will be back in harmony in no time – each remembering that it’s all… truly… gravy.

Kiva’s single-serve gravy uses traditional Thanksgiving ingredients like turkey stock, salt, onion and garlic, to create a familiar taste with an uncommon ingredient – cannabis. Simply whisk the gravy powder with one cup of water in a saucepan, bring to a boil, and stir occasionally to achieve the desired level of thickness.

Don’t be surprised if there are no leftovers for once!
