Skincare Tips and Facts

When it comes to personal care, it's very important to know what's in the products you are using.  Parabens and Sodium Laurel Sulfate are two chemicals that should be avoided like the plague.

Skin Care Fact #1

When your skin is really dry and cracked, moisturizing is helpful but exfoliating and THEN moisturizing yields better results.  Think about this...
 
Would you add a layer of paint to a cracked up wall? Of course not.  The paint would peel off in no time.  Instead, you would smooth down the wall's surface before painting it.  It's a similar principle with treating dry, cracked skin.  You must get rid of the old/dead skin cells to reveal a fresh layer of skin before adding moisturizer to it.


Skin Complexion Tip: Keep your hands out of your face!  This one can not be stressed enough. You do not want to transfer the germs from your hands to your face.  Constantly touching the face may cause skin irritation.

Skin Complexion Tip: Drink 1/2 your body weight in ounces of water daily.  Water does wonders for your skin.  It helps transport toxins from your cells too.  Did you know your body is composed of about 75% water?

Skin Complexion Tip: Harsh ingredients to your skin may cause skin irritation. Go Natural and Organic.

Skin Complexion Tip:  Use natural organic skin care makeup. Many prominent makeup brands use a formula that will clog pores and cause acne. Be sure to use all natural makeup or better yet... no makeup at all.
 
Skin Complexion Tip: Get plenty of exercise. Physical exercise is extremely important for clearing acne as it reduces stress significantly.
 
Skin Complexion Tip: Beware of fragrances that make you break out. Believe it or not, some perfumes and fragrances can actually cause breakouts.
 
Skin Complexion Tip: Limit stress. Stress increases the production of hormones which cause acne. Also, the more stress you experience, the harder it is for your body to heal.
 
Skin Complexion Tip: Incorporate all natural Aloe Vera gel (I'm talking straight from the plant) into your skin care regimen. Aloe Vera is one of the very best all natural skin care nutrients on the planet! Use it, and see the incredible results.
