Why alcohol is bad for your skin
Back to blog home 19th October 2015
We all know the negative effects alcohol can have on our bodies, and it's especially bad for the skin! The more alcohol you drink the more you demand higher work from your liver. With your liver working overtime on detoxifying the alcohol in your system, it has less time to detoxify the other toxins in your body.
In terms of the effect alcohol has on your skin ...
Your skin is your number one toxin eliminator. Therefore when you increase toxins in your body you increase the need to eliminate them through your skin . Your skin is adversely affected and becomes dehydrated. When your skin becomes dehydrated you will notice the increased appearance of fine and deeper lines. Lymphatic drainage is impaired (often reflected or seen by darkness under the eyes, and or puffiness).
