Stress is youth’s biggest enemy. It causes skin to age more rapidly than the passage of time. Stress produces cortisol, heightened levels of which can significantly harm our facial skin cells by interfering with blood flow pattern. It weakens the facial blood vessels and leads to ageing. Studies have shown that stress can worsen or cause skin problems like acne, psoriasis and eczema. It has also been observed that during the stressful times people crave for more sweet and junk foods, which are not good for your body and skin.
