Radiant Skin Care
Healthy, soft and radiant skin starts from the inside out. Every day, drink many litres of filtered water, eat mounds of raw vegetables and incorporate plenty of essential fatty acids into our diet, such as flax, hemp and an array of antioxidant seed oils in my protein shakes and salad dressings.
The skin is the largest eliminative organ and contrary to conventional belief, much of what goes on your skin can be absorbed directly into the bloodstream. Many skincare products are chemically based or modified. When purchasing a commercial moisturizer, avoid products with words listed on the ingredient panel you can’t pronounce such as petroleum by-products, artificial colours or fragrances. Real creams with natural and essential oils are concentrated and therefore, preferred over most lotions.
Also, be sure to choose the right skincare products for your skin type. If you have normal skin, your skin will have a clear, fine textured, supple and smooth surface that is neither greasy nor dry. It glows with an inner health that stems from good blood circulation and excellent health. If you have dry skin, your parched look is caused by your skin’s inability to retain moisture.
Dry skin is fine-textured and is prone to wrinkles and chapping. Dry skin is more difficult to moisturize in cold weather. If you have oily skin, you probably have coarse pores and pimples, and your skin will look greasy. For excessively oily skin, consume a diet rich in high quality proteins but restricted in chemically altered fats, sodium and fluids with added sugar.
The best way look before retiring to bed your skin complexion is to keep it absolutely clean. For a light make-up, wash with warm water and soap should be enough.
Accumulation of dust and dirt are complexion enemies. If they are allowed to stay on the face during the long night-hours, your skin would not be able to breathe. So the best way to look after care your complexion is to keep it absolutely clean. For a light make-up, wash with warm water and soap should be enough. For removal of heavy make-up, use a cosmetic cleanser first and then wash with warm water and soap.
