What comprises of proper skin nourishment ?

Glowing or radiant skin is a sign of healthy skin. The health of the skin is further dependent on proper nourishment; which includes proper cleansing, along with hydration and nutrient supply. Milder soaps cannot properly cleanse the skin. And harsher ones do rid the skin of impurities; but also steal away its moisture. But, neither cleansing nor moisturizing can be ignored. This is because proper cleansing betters the nutrient supply to the cells, while keeping skin free of infections and acne. Adequate nutrient supply helps skin repair faster, and stay healthier. As for hydration, it strengthens the cells, maintains skins elasticity, delays wrinkling. And a well hydrated skin is less prone to damage from external factors.

Its cleansing activity is attributable to the presence of methylglyoxal; which renders it anti-bacterial property. This makes it effective against acne and other skin infections.
