OH LA LAQUA Beauty provides you with important vitamins and micronutrients for healthy skin, hair and nails

  1. Green tea extract: the power of antioxidants
    Green tea extract is an excellent source of antioxidants, especially polyphenols and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which protect the skin from free radicals and can therefore slow down skin ageing. Green tea extract has an anti-inflammatory effect, which can help with skin problems such as acne and redness. At the same time, the polyphenols contained in green tea extract support collagen production, which can lead to firmer and more elastic skin. Green tea extract can therefore help to keep your skin looking radiant and fresh for longer.

  2. Aronia extract: the superfood for the skin
    Aronia berries contain high amounts of vitamin C, K and E as well as minerals and antioxidants, which also provide protection against free radicals and strengthen the skin barrier. Vitamin C also supports collagen synthesis, which makes the skin appear firmer and more elastic. Thanks to the antioxidants and the vitamin E it contains, chokeberry extract can keep the skin supple and protect it against harmful environmental influences. Aronia also promotes better blood circulation, which makes the skin appear rosy and radiant.

  3. Niacin (vitamin B3): For skin renewal and moisturizing
    Niacin is an extremely versatile vitamin that is particularly known for its positive effects on the skin. It helps with skin renewal and ensures a balanced supply of moisture. For blemish-prone skin, niacin can help to reduce redness and inflammation and make the complexion appear more even.

  4. Biotin (vitamin B7): The vitamin for healthy hair, skin and nails
    Biotin is essential for healthy hair, strong nails and resilient skin. It supports hair growth, strengthens the hair follicles and helps to prevent hair loss, which is often caused by a biotin deficiency. Biotin also promotes the growth and strength of nails. Biotin can also improve dry skin and help to keep the skin elastic and supple.

  5. Vitamin E: the skin protection expert
    Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that protects the skin from oxidative damage caused by UV radiation and environmental pollution and can therefore prevent premature skin ageing. Vitamin E also improves skin hydration and elasticity, resulting in smoother and more supple skin. Vitamin E is also often used to care for small scars and can promote faster healing of the skin.

  6. Zinc: The mineral for clear skin and strong hair
    Zinc is an essential trace element that performs many important functions in the body. It promotes wound healing, supports cell regeneration and helps to regulate sebum production, which can prevent skin blemishes. In addition, zinc strengthens the hair and is important for healthy hair growth as it supports cell production. Overall, zinc contributes to a clear, clean complexion and strong hair.

Nutrients such as these protect the skin, promote its elasticity and strengthen hair and nails. It is important to consider the effect of these substances in combination - together they develop a synergy that sustainably improves the external appearance. A healthy, radiant complexion and strong hair are often the result of inner balance and a regular supply of these nutrients. But simply taking nutrients in the form of a capsule, tablet or drink is no substitute for taking care of your own body.


The influence of self-care: true beauty begins within

You can often immediately recognize a person who is balanced and takes good care of themselves. Their skin looks fresher, their eyes sparkle and their body language signals contentment. Self-care encompasses many aspects:


  • Get enough sleep
    Sufficient sleep is essential for body and mind. During rest periods, our body regenerates, strengthens the immune system and processes the experiences of the day. Try to create a relaxing evening routine that prepares you for a restful night - whether by reading a book or meditating. Good sleep gives you more energy and helps you stay focused and balanced throughout the day.

  • Regular exercise
    Exercise not only gets your circulation going, but also promotes the release of endorphins, the so-called happiness hormones. Whether it's a walk, yoga or targeted strength training - find an activity that gives you pleasure and keeps you moving. Just 30 minutes a day is enough to lift your mood and reduce stress, which in turn improves your general well-being.

  • Dealing with stress consciously
    Stress is a common companion in everyday life, but how we deal with it makes all the difference. Use techniques such as meditation, breathing exercises or journaling to calm your mind and distance yourself from stress. Consciously plan breaks and allow yourself to say "no" from time to time. Consciously dealing with stress makes you more relaxed and resilient, which directly contributes to a greater sense of well-being.

  • Healthy eating
    Make sure you eat a balanced diet that gives you energy. Fresh fruit, vegetables, wholegrain products, animal or vegetable proteins and healthy fats provide your body with essential nutrients. Even small changes such as replacing sugary snacks with nuts or fruit can have a positive effect on your well-being.

  • Healthy drinks
    Fluids are essential for our body's cells. That's why it's super important to drink enough water.

Drinking water has many benefits for your body

Drinking enough water has numerous benefits for our body, especially for our skin and our appearance.

Well-hydrated skin is more elastic and less prone to dryness and wrinkles. Optimal hydration also promotes blood circulation and gives the complexion a fresh, natural glow. Drinking enough water also helps the body to detoxify, which often leads to a clearer complexion and fewer blemishes. The eyes also benefit from good hydration: they appear clearer and more vibrant, which makes us look more alert and fresher overall.

Those who make sure they get enough sleep, exercise regularly, deal with stress consciously, eat a healthy diet with sufficient water and take in these nutrients can benefit from this - and thus bring their beauty from the inside out. A beauty that is unique and natural.

What actually makes us beautiful?

In a world where visual impressions often come first, we are confronted with images and ideals on a daily basis. But true beauty goes far beyond what we see - it is deeply rooted within us and radiates from the inside out. A smile, a confident attitude and the courage to be ourselves are often much more enticing than smooth surfaces or standardized proportions. Accepting ourselves - with all the little flaws that make us unique - is the first step towards true beauty.

And another thing: everyone is beautiful just the way they are
Beauty is a personal journey. When we feel good in our body and mind, this is naturally reflected in our appearance. It's not about conforming to an ideal, it's about being the best version of ourselves - and that best version is often the one that loves itself.

With OH LA LAQUA Beauty we want to support you on this journey. Cheers to that & Happy Hydration!
