What should I know about fasting and skin health?

Fasting during Ramadan can have both positive and negative effects on your skin health. On one hand, fasting may improve skin clarity by allowing your body to detoxify and eliminate toxins. On the other hand, dehydration from not drinking enough water can lead to dryness, flakiness, and even breakouts. To support your skin during Ramadan, focus on staying hydrated during non-fasting hours, and consider incorporating hydrating foods like cucumbers and melons into your meals. Additionally, maintaining a skincare routine with moisturizers can help combat dryness. If you notice significant changes in your skin, it’s advisable to consult with a dermatologist for personalized care.
