Saturday...... overcast, wish it would rain

TODAY: Our extraordinary Skin

Thank goodness for our skin........ it protects us, it is absorbent and it responds well to all we do to preserve and improve its conditions.

Unfortunately we constantly do harm to our skin (and immune system) in our effort to care for it.  One cause of premature aging is the free radical oxidation of our cells, toxins promote this oxidation, and many of the chemicals used to preserve and enhance today's creams and cosmetics actually pollute our skin and consequently act like antagonists to our anti-aging regimens. By choosing nourishing, natural products, we can address the needs of our largest organ and actually be doing something good for it.....that is the purpose, right?

Healthy skin is beautiful.....Dry skin is dehydrated...... a blemish is an infection......and irritated skin is inflamed.....a wrinkle is a scar. If we want the skin to regenerate itself and be its healthiest and best, we must make an effort (it won't happen by itself:) ...... we need to cleanse it, balance it and then give it an abundance of nutrition........ follow those 3 little steps and your skin will be healthy and vibrant for life.

"Natural and Organic" products are the best products we can use on our skin. They are not filled with a bunch of elements that are toxic to us and our skin.  They are the best products to tone, balance and add that abundance of nutrition we need for our skin to look, feel and be healthy.

Cleansing:
use cleansing creams and microderms. This step is to wash away the day (or nights) dead cells that lay on the top, making our faces supple and allowing makeup to go on smoothly.

Balance and Tone:
this step is to help tighten the pores, after we've cleansed all our pores are open, we want to tighten them up, this process will help protect your skin and whether you're getting ready for bed or going out, the tighter the pores are, the healthier the skin is.

Nutrition:
these are your creams and fluids that you use after toning.... this will help you to replace the moisture and vitamins that "just living and being" will deplete you of.

In close:
treat yourself and your skin well....... find and good natural/organic line of products and then incorporate the 3 steps above (twice a day)..... it doesn't take a lot of time and if you do it your skin will love you back, by always looking healthy and beautiful.....

Have a wonderful night........see you Monday.
