New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi had shared something about his glowing skin during his interaction with the youth in 2020. He had jokingly said that he works hard and sweats so much that it massages his face. Her aim was not to promote any particular beauty routine, but to show the importance of hard work, discipline and an active life. However, this has increased people's curiosity to know what effect sweat actually has on the skin.
How can sweat be beneficial for the skin?
During exercise, body temperature increases and sweating occurs. Also, increasing blood flow can improve the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the skin. The temporary glow seen after a workout may be linked to increased blood flow. Sweat can also keep the skin moist for a while. But it is not right to consider it as a 'detox' or natural scrub of the skin. The main work of removing toxic substances from the body is not done by sweat of the skin, but by other parts of the body.
Cleaning is necessary after sweating
Sweat that accumulates on the face for a long time can combine with oil, dirt and bacteria to clog pores and increase acne in some people. Therefore, it is considered better to clean the face with water after sweating.
How to get natural glow?
There is no need to sweat forcefully for glow. Regular walk, yoga, running or favorite exercise is enough. During exercise, gently wipe the sweat from the face with a clean towel and clean the face afterward. It is also important to drink enough water. Rubbing sweat or leaving it on for too long on sensitive or acne-prone skin can increase the problem. Therefore, PM Modi's 'sweat' talk can be seen as a motivational message. The real formula for healthy skin is regular activity, balanced care and proper cleansing after sweating.
