Hydrate your skin with just ONE ingredient!!! Yes, that's all you probably need!
As children, train travel was a summer staple for many of us who grew up in the 1980’s in India. We used to travel from Mumbai to the South of India during our annual summer holidays each year. One of the most exciting parts of our vacation was the 2-day travel by train. Well, until we reached Andhra Pradesh at least. As the train wound its way through this extremely hot expansive terrain, we the kids would get bored and tired easily. A refreshing respite from the sweltering heat were the cool cucumbers laced with salt and spices. We would gulp them down one after another and immediately feel a sense of cooling down and satiety.
Well, cucumbers are equally good for your skin as they are for your body. Very hydrating and refreshing (with more than 90% water content), using cucumber on your skin can replenish lost moisture in a jiffy leaving you fresh and hydrated. Cucumber slices are also extremely effective when placed on tired eyes and help relieve fatigue.
As a quick guide to this super cool ingredient, we list the 3 top benefits that fresh cucumber brings.
DELAYING WRINKLES - Lack of sufficient hydration causes skin to look dry and undernourished as well as prone to wrinkles and fine lines. Using hydrating ingredients that help plump up the skin and improve its elasticity and suppleness keeps fine lines and wrinkles at bay. Cucumbers are made up of over 90% water and contain polysaccharides that help attract and retain water. Thus cucumbers are excellent at providing excellent hydration and delay signs of ageing.
SOOTHING - Cucumbers can be immensely soothing for mildly burnt or damaged skin and help alleviate sunburn, due to their cooling properties. They are good for all skin types, especially sensitive skin that is prone to inflammation as well as irritated or inflamed skin.
ANTI ACNE - Due to their mild astringent properties, cucumbers help tighten pores, help regulate oil production, and reduce the appearance of pore size. Excess oil and large, clogged pores often contribute to breakouts so if you have oily or acne prone skin, cucumber is your skin’s new BFF.
