"Clear water produces hibiscus, which is naturally carved." The charm and sacred quality of lotus have been loved and appreciated by people for many years. For female friends who love beauty naturally, lotus is a beautiful flower.

The key to a woman's beautiful face lies in the word "qi and blood". The body is full of qi and blood, running smoothly, and the skin is naturally ruddy and shiny; On the contrary, qi and blood run abnormally and stagnate in the body, and the complexion is naturally dull. Not only that, many women's irregular menstruation and dysmenorrhea are also closely related to poor blood circulation.

Lotus has the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, which can materialize the stasis in the body, make the blood flow unimpeded, and then achieve the purpose of beauty.

2, heat and detoxification, refreshing in summer

In summer, the weather is hot, the air is stuffy and stuffy, and it is easy to accumulate heat in the body, so summer is easy to cause inexplicable irritability.

Lotus blooms in summer. "After all, the scenery of the West Lake is different from that at four o'clock in June; The next day, the lotus leaf is infinitely blue, and the lotus color is different. " Lotus is a beautiful scenery in summer, which will naturally give people a pleasing feeling. Moreover, the unique fragrance of lotus also has the function of relieving summer heat and refreshing. Imagine walking by the pond in Xiang Lian, enjoying the graceful posture of lotus flowers and feeling the fragrance of lotus flowers, and you will feel refreshed and refreshed when the heat is unbearable and your mood is irritable.

Pure heart fire, the sleeping flower of "sleeping beauty"

Friends often say: "Good skin comes from sleep." A good sleep is a woman's free cosmetics and the best beautician. But in real life, for various reasons, everyone can't have high-quality sleep. As far as summer is concerned, Chinese medicine believes that "summer dominates the heart", that is, the activity of the heart is the most vigorous in summer. However, the summer weather is hot and the heat is unbearable, which is more prone to the phenomenon of "excessive heart fire". In this way, the mind is disturbed and naturally affects sleep. Moreover, in summer, human sweat is excreted vigorously, and Chinese medicine has the saying that "sweat is the liquid of the heart" and "sweat and blood are homologous", so excessive sweat excretion means that there will be insufficient blood, which will lead to insomnia.

Therefore, the key to ensure a good sleep in summer is to remove too much heart fire. Lotus belongs to heart meridian and liver meridian, which has the effect of clearing heart and cooling blood, and is of great benefit to nourishing heart, calming nerves and improving sleep.
