It's already August 3 and it's Watermelon Day, a holiday celebrated in different parts of the world to honor this well-known fruit that we are very fond of eating during the hot summer days.

Watermelon, due to its high water content, low calorie content, is a frequent guest on our tables. However, not everyone knows that this fruit is widely used in cosmetics due to its nutritional and skin care properties. Watermelon not only helps to keep the skin hydrated, which is crucial for its health and appearance. It is also an excellent antioxidant due to the presence of vitamin C in it. The lycopene content of watermelon helps protect the skin from sun damage and promotes collagen production, which can slow down skin aging (MindBodyGreen) (Dr. Axe). In addition, amino acids such as citrulline help relieve skin irritation and inflammation (MindBodyGreen). Meanwhile, beta-carotene, which is converted into vitamin A, promotes cell renewal, reduces hyperpigmentation and improves skin tone. Watermelon also helps regulate sebum secretion, which is beneficial for people with oily and acne-prone skin. Are watermelon cosmetics available on the Polish market? Interesting suggestions can be found in the palette of the Polish brand YUMI, which offers aloe-based cosmetics.
