NoIt’s not just a saying, “feel good in your own skin”: it’s reality. Those who manage to create a good balance between work, private life and free time often also find a way to carve out moments to dedicate to themselves and to follow small well-being habits, such as playing sports and being outdoors. Everyday. One of the secrets to living to the fullest is in fact continuity: just like the skin, which must be hydrated with creams (and not only) to make it elastic and soft, our life also needs a constant and healthy balance. Just think about how much what we eat affects our well-being. Those who follow a diet based on proteins, fruit and vegetables, without giving up carbohydrates and “good” fats, will have more energy and a good mood, as well as maintaining good health.
Pilates, a moment to dedicate to ourselves
Perhaps few of us have stopped to ask ourselves why Pilates is so successful. We practice it, many of our friends love it and have made it a real daily ritual: there are those who choose the mat version, comfortably at home, and those who prefer the Reformer, in increasingly renowned centres. There are those who prefer a gentler practice, perhaps with the support of the Cadillac, and those who focus entirely on elasticity, to be achieved with hours of work on the maxi Reformer. For the so-called Pilates Princesses, girls in their thirties made “famous” by social media, it is a daily ritual, often worth Instagramming. But why is it so popular? Because it lengthens, sculpts and tones. It is a discipline that teaches control and quality of movement and, after an hour of Pilates, you feel decidedly better, free, or almost free, from the stress accumulated during the day.
Pilates Month: elasticity, flexibility, balance and an idea of well-being that makes sense
A month dedicated to Pilates, whether in a fitness or soft version, more faithful to the basic principle of the discipline that inseparably connects breathing and movement, or in the brand new hot variations, carried out in rooms at high temperatures to encourage movement with the “looser” muscles: the important thing is to try it. It makes you feel good and, within a month, you can notice it, even just thanks to the improvement in posture and greater elasticity in daily movements. The parallel with the skin is obvious, because skin elasticity is fundamental and depends on hydration. Pilates Month was born right here: train balance and softness from the inside and support comfort and flexibility of the skin from the outside, with a body routine built month after month to achieve the best for your body, but also for your mind and mood. A challenge to take part in, now!
In this scenario, hydration becomes an essential daily gesture for feeling good: a pampering that envelops the skin and makes it visibly softer, more elastic and luminous.
The protagonist of this ritual is L‘Urea, a molecule naturally present in our body, precious for maintaining the balance of skin hydration. ISDIN’s dermatological research has enhanced its properties by formulating the Ureadin line, based on the exclusive ISDIN UREA: a complex designed to offer intense and long-lasting hydration, improve skin texture and strengthen its natural protective barrier.
A word from the experts
How can Pilates influence general well-being? Greta Mazzini, pilates teacher and content creator @fitgreta, reveals it to us: “It promotes a strong mind-body connection thanks to the concentration and breath control required during exercises, this helps reduce stress and tension. Constant practice improves self-awareness, contributing to a more stable and lasting internal balance.” And again: “It is a discipline adaptable to any age and training level, also indicated in delicate phases such as post-pregnancy or in the presence of joint pain. Furthermore, it is not competitive: it focuses on listening to the body and personal well-being, creating a more serene and inclusive environment.”
And how to take care of your skin? We asked Elena Bergami, ISDIN Medical Marketing Manager: “First, choose one lifestyle as healthy as possiblechoosing a balanced diet and movement, what can generate a real impact is the adoption of a preventive and, above all, personalized approach: stop chasing the current trend and listen to your real needs. Speaking of skin well-being, it is certainly useful to adopt a routine that is essential but made up of high quality and effective products. The key to long-term success lies in the pleasantness of the rituals: choose textures and formulations that we love helps us transform skincare into a moment of rewarding well-being, guaranteeing the consistency necessary to achieve visible and long-lasting results.”We must not underestimate the importance of hydrated and soft skin, in fact, as the ISDIN expert also confirms “Taking care of our skin can help make us feel better, both from an aesthetic, emotional and functional point of view.”
