The skin is a huge and complex organ that constantly adapts to our external environment; seasonal changes, wind, sun, pollution and also to our inner state: food, stress, hormones, or sleep; everything influences and can be seen externally. Every skin is unique and reflects the functioning of our internal metabolism and also our emotions.

We strive to find creams, serums, or oils that work wonders, but the solution comes from within: from the care and the attention we pay to our digestive system.   experts agree that beauty begins in the gut.

The intestine-skin axis is nothing new for Traditional Chinese Medicine where the health of this organ is connected to everything and its proper functioning depends not only on a good anti-inflammatory diet but also on how we manage stress.

Think of your skin in each bite

With the help of nutricosmetics we no longer settle for amazing ingredients in topical products: we can eat them!

With vibrant (alive) foods, loaded with antioxidants, enzymes, probiotics, healthy fats, water and essential nutrients: our body will show its gratitude visibly through its largest organ: "our skin". Eating more fruits and vegetables helps fight dull skin and fine lines of expression.

Foods that cause inflammation are called pro-aging foods; especially sugar. It has been shown that it is one of the most harmful ingredients for the skin, it produces a reaction called glycation that slows down the formation of collagen and weakens it. Gluten is converted into sugar much faster than anything else in the body and in addition to increasing insulin levels, this process has a direct impact on collagen levels. Dairy and alcohol also negatively affect the skin if we consume them in excess.
