Skin Care Tip: Thermal baths/waters

After a few years living in Budapest, Hungary, and many visits to the numerous thermal baths in this city, i have noticed that my skin feels a lot softer and more elastic after each bath. the waters have a high content in calcium/magnesium/copper/zinc/selenium and a little research shows that those minerals and trace elements have anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory effects on the skin. rather than feeling dry after a bath, the skin is soft and remains hydrated for a number of hours after the baths. as thermal baths are not always around the corner, i have started applying skincare products containing healing water rather than purified water, for example, products by Uriage in France or Thermal Kozmetikai in Hungary. Very effective. Results of repeated visits to the baths are a softer skin, more hydrated, more elastic and a reduction in the appearance of wrinkles. The skincare preparations mentioned above have a similar effect.
