The skin is a super complex organ that is constantly adapting to our external environment (sun, wind, pollution, cold...) and internal environment (stress, diet, mood, rest, hormones...).

So, without hesitation, we can say that each skin is unique , as it reflects its own emotions , its environment, its intimacy...

BE CAREFUL WITH YOUR EMOTIONS, THEY TAKE THEIR TOLL!

Any setback in life has its own consequences for our skin. To give a couple of examples, redness or itching can become worse and end up becoming real diseases.

Nowadays, medicine accepts and assumes that discomfort can lead to skin manifestations such as hives , alopecia , itching , etc. It can also amplify phenomena of genetic origin or linked to the environment such as psoriasis , seborrheic dermatitis or eczema .

For a long time, dermatology was unable to decipher the link between the mind and the skin , even though there was clear evidence. But now, thanks to a new microscopic technique, tiny nerve filaments have finally been discovered in the epidermis, whose role in the brain-skin relationship is easy to unravel.

BRAIN - NERVOUS SYSTEM - SKIN

Three people involved, and one who shows his face

Therefore, we can say with certainty that our skin is a reflection of what we feel because the cutaneous nervous system controls its cells .

Our skin is connected to the brain through millions and millions of nerve connections , in fact, it is one of the organs in the body with the most nerve receptors. In this way, whatever our mood , it will inevitably be reflected in your skin.

But, among all the moods, which ones affect our skin the most?

• Stress: it couldn't be any other way, stress is one of the most feared enemies of our body. If you have gone through or are going through an episode of stress, you will know first-hand that it feels like great mental exhaustion. In addition, your body can translate it in multiple ways such as hair loss , insomnia , problems with your weight ... even headaches.

When it comes to the skin, stress rolls out the red carpet for skin disorders such as dermatitis , acne , psoriasis , eczema , seborrheic dermatitis , etc. It also encourages the appearance of wrinkles .

• Depression: This emotional disorder causes constant feelings of sadness and loss of interest in carrying out daily activities.

Mood disorders not only affect feelings, thoughts and behavior, they can also affect the brain , cardiovascular system , sleep problems … even in the short term.

The bloodstream carries chemical signals that help regulate the sleep-wake cycle. Mood disorders can affect these signals, causing changes in sleep patterns . For example, depression may be associated with insomnia or hypersomnia, while bipolar disorder can cause extreme variations in sleep patterns.

Lack of sleep and neglect of personal image are inevitably reflected on the face. Dark circles appear, more wrinkles appear and those that exist become more pronounced, the complexion becomes dull and lifeless and the skin loses elasticity .

Depression and stress can influence the function of the sebaceous glands in several ways: by increasing the production of sebum , making it thicker and more capable of clogging pores , and triggering inflammatory responses that can contribute to skin problems such as acne or rosacea .

• Easily irritable character. People who tend to get angry and irritated easily may be more likely to suffer from heart problems. As far as the skin is concerned, this character accelerates the signs of premature aging: wrinkles and expression lines, hair loss and the appearance of gray hair .

• On the opposite pole are optimistic people , who are more likely to enjoy happiness. In this case, there are no drawbacks, it's all benefits. When we feel happy, our brain releases dopamine , endorphins and serotonin , three hormones that can work real magic in your body.

The three together are a feared anti-aging and pro-immune system team, and reduce the chances of suffering from hives, dermatitis, etc.

That's why there's nothing better than having a positive attitude towards life! It's the best and cheapest cosmetic . It helps keep us younger and healthier for longer.
