5 Things Your Skin is Trying to Tell You

Despite skin being the largest organ in our body, it is also perhaps one of the most ignored! Agreed we use expensive creams and serums to make sure our skin shines and glows but are we actually paying attention to what our skin is telling us about our health?
If your skin is showing any of these symptoms, it might be reason for you to make some changes or consult a doctor.

 
1. Dry Skin
Dry skin does not just mean that you need more moisturizer – dry skin can also be because you are not getting enough water! In some cases, dry itchy skin can also be a sign of more serious skin diseases and it is best to get this checked.1
2. Chin and Jawline Acne
Chin and jawline acne for women maybe a lot more worrying than just preventing you from having clear skin – this acne could be an indicator of some hormonal imbalance or a symptom that you have PCOD. Adult acne is also caused when you are really stressed and some lifestyle changes can definitely help fix this!

3. Unusual hair growth on skin
Facial hair on your skin is definitely a pain but make sure it is not a symptom of PCOS! Genetics and hormones definitely play a big role in hair growth but if you also have other symptoms of PCOD like not losing weight or irregular periods, the hair growth on your
skin might be pointing to some other problems.

4. White patches 
If you find small white patches appearing on your skin it is best to get it checked with a doctor. Do not ignore these patches because they are linked to a number of disorders and could also be a condition called Vitiligo that affects the pigment of your skin.3
5. Dark skin under your eyes
Dark skin under your eyes and puffy eyes can be something as simple as lack of sleep – However, if this is not the case it could also be that you are not getting enough nutrients or drinking water.
