Onion Glow: The Japanese Skin Secret

The sulfur compounds in onions can help reduce skin inflammation and support healing, making the skin look smoother and more even-toned.

Boosts Collagen Production

Onions may support collagen synthesis, which is key to maintaining skin elasticity and reducing wrinkles.

Improves Circulation

Consuming onions or using onion-infused products can boost blood flow, giving skin a healthy, natural glow.

🧴 How to Use Onions for Skin Care

1. ONION JUICE FACE MASK (USE WITH CAUTION)

Mix 1 teaspoon of onion juice with honey or aloe vera (to reduce irritation).

Apply for 10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly.

Use no more than twice a week, and always do a patch test.

2. ONION-RICH DIET

Eating onions (especially raw or lightly cooked) can help your skin from the inside out.

Pair them with other antioxidant-rich foods like green tea, fish, and seaweed—staples of the Japanese diet.
