What’s Your Trick For Enjoying Holiday Treats And Staying On Track? 🎃
OMG! I try to eat healthy most of the year so I can snack from Oct-Jan! 😁
I like pumpkin spice sweetened pumpkin seeds from Traders Joe's!
Halloween is one of everyone’s favorite holidays! It’s the only day of the year that dressing up as fun witches and favorite characters and eating a little too much of your favorite candy is expected of you! But as much fun as chocolate binges, caramel apples, and costume makeup can be, these Halloween traditions can actually be harmful to people who have vitiligo skin. To fully enjoy the Halloween festivities without the sugar breakouts and irritated skin the next day,
Trick 1: Drink plenty of water and eat high-protein, low carb meals the following day. Ingesting so much sugar, however, is bad for your health and your skin. Increased levels of simple sugars, like those in candy, will not only add on the pounds, but will also increase inflammation throughout your body. This leads to increased rosacea of the skin, acne, and dark patches. I suggest getting your sugar fix from fruit—berries and a little bit of dark chocolate should do the trick! But, if you can’t say no to the candy bowl, make sure you limit your carbohydrate intake the next day and drink plenty of water! Eat protein-rich meals instead, avoiding pastas, bread, and grains. This will help your body convert the excess sugar into energy instead of extra weight or a blemish!
Trick 2: Try organic alternatives to costume makeup; most of your average costume makeups, however, are filled with harmful chemicals that are harsh against your skin and bad for your health. Instead, look for organic or homemade alternatives. You’d be surprised how well a little bit of cornstarch and beet juice works as a natural, fake blood alternative! For your pretty princesses and fairies, mix some organic aloe vera gel with a dash of glitter to make a nontoxic, glittery gel.
By following these simple steps, you can enjoy your Halloween festivities without your skin paying the consequences for it later!
Don't laugh (ok, you can laugh..) For literally years...I have started my New Year's resolutions in early October. So by time holidays roll around, I am already in the gym and eating better! It has worked for a long time...
