Gives your skin a healthy glow
Cold shower helps increase blood circulation. For your face, this can mean a fresh and radiant look. The good news is that you don't need to be in the cold for very long to make your skin brighter. Showering in slightly cold or even warm water is enough to nourish it.
Prevents skin aging
Daily cold shower habit helps your skin stay younger for longer. Cold water activates your nervous system and your body releases stress-fighting hormones and brain chemicals. Studies show that psychological stress has a direct impact on skin aging and affects many systems in the body.
Prevents stress-related skin ailments
The cold shower sends an enormous amount of electrical impulses to the brain and stimulates the release of "happiness hormones" or endorphins. When these chemicals are released by the body, your stress levels decrease and your risk of experiencing a range of skin problems such as acne, psoriasis and dermatitis is reduced.
Tightens pores
Hot water can shrink the pores on the skin in some cases. Cold water, on the other hand, gives vitality to your face and increases the brightness of your skin. The face may appear less puffy or red, as cold water can cause blood vessels to tighten.
Prevents some skin conditions
While hot showers may inflame the skin, causing redness, itching, and even peeling, cold water does the opposite. For those suffering from itchy skin, cold showers can help you overcome the itching sensation. According to a study, cooling the skin by taking cold showers also helps to reduce the intense itching caused by psoriasis.
