Skin Care
Regardless of your
age or the season, here are some steps to keep your skin as healthy
as possible:
-
Healthy beautiful
skin requires water. Good hydration maintains firm, smooth skin.
Try to drink a minimum of 64-ounces of water each day.
- Eliminate tobacco, which is
known to age skin prematurely.
- Nourish your skin from the
inside by eating a balanced whole foods diet.
-
Recent
research suggests processed foods and refined sugars promote
changes that can lead to blemishes.1
Make fresh, colorful fruits and vegetables a key part of your diet
for beautiful skin.
-
Foods and
nutrients that are exceptionally nourishing for the skin include:
essential fatty acids from cold water fish and flax seed oil; beta
carotene and vitamin A found in orange vegetables, egg yolks, and
liver; berries, in particular blueberries; and green and white
tea.
-
Reduce your
stress levels. Excessive stress can lead to break outs, according
to a recent study.2
Relaxed, calm muscles are also less likely to wrinkle.
- Reduce your consumption of
alcohol, replacing it with pure water.
- Be consistent with your exercise
program, as exercise promotes healthy skin.
-
Wear a sunscreen
that contains an SPF of at least 15 or higher on your face and
exposed parts of your body and scalp, especially during the hot
summer months.

Do you feel okay
about loading your skin with artificial ingredients? Skin is
happiest with a regimen of cleansing, moisturizing and rejuvenating
that features natural oils, botanical extracts and nourishing
nutrients. With cruelty free, natural products you get what you need
to look good and feel comfortable with your choices.
Cleansing
Our natural soaps and cleansers are effective against germs and
dirt, sudsing and soothing with the finest ingredients.
Moisturizing
Your skin's functions are vital for health. Skin breathes, regulates
temperature, retains moisture and helps rid the body of toxins.
Don't you want to avoid artificial and petroleum-based ingredients
that possibly interfere with these functions? Instead, choose
all-natural moisturizers for soft, smooth skin without compromise.
Rejuvenating
While a simple aromatherapy massage or a good scrubbing with sea
salt does wonders for your body, uplifting facial care products
should contain high levels of several effective natural ingredients
that rejuvenate daily.
