5 Secrets to Healthy Skin Care

Filed under: Healthy Skin Face — "the Skin Guide" @ 10:57 pm

Here are five secrets for healthy skin care that I believe everyone should know.  Healthy skin care should not be a beauty secret.  There are many things that you could be doing every day to improve your skin’s health and appearance.  I believe that these are the “top five” beauty secrets for natural healthy skin care.

Secret #5—Use a Gentle Cleanser Every Day

Some beauty “experts” recommend the regular use of exfoliating scrubs.  On an occasional basis, that might be okay, as long as the ingredients are all natural.  Colloidal oatmeal, for example, makes a safe scrub.

Beware of Commercial Face Scrubs

But, on a daily basis, the act of gently massaging your face with a warm wet cloth and a gentle cleanser like tea tree oil or manuka honey will loosen dirt and dead cells, leaving your face looking and feeling fresh.  Most of the scrubs that you see on the market are too strong and rough, particularly when it comes to your face.  They can cause redness and irritation, which can have negative long-term effects on your skin’s health and appearance.  A healthy skin care routine is safe and gentle.

Secret #4—Always Moisturize after Cleansing

Whether you feel that your face is oily or dry, you need to moisturize after cleansing.  Even gentle cleansers remove the natural oils that protect the skin’s cells from damage and disease.  The moisturizer that you use should be free of artificial preservatives, fragrances and other additives.

A healthy skin care moisturizer should contain:
(1) Vitamin E, a natural preservative that is good for your skin’s health
(2) Coenzyme Q10, an antioxidant that is quickly depleted when your skin is       exposed to UV rays from the sun
(3) Grape seed oil 
(4) Wakame kelp extracts, an old Japanese beauty secret.

Secret #3—Use a Night Cream

Before you go to bed, gently remove all of the makeup that you wore during the day.  If the moisturizer that you used in the morning contained grape seed oil, makeup removal will be easier, because it creates a film that prevents makeup and dirt from getting into the pores.

The healthy skin care cream that you use at night should contain avocado oil and Shea butter.  These natural oils are a little too heavy to use during the day, but they work perfectly at night, without leaving a greasy stain on your pillow.  

Secret #2—Use Common Sense in the Sun

I do not recommend the daily use of products that contain sunscreen, because some of them are known to damage DNA strands within the cells, which predisposes them to cancerous formation.  I do suggest that you use common sense.
 
If you expect to be out for more than 15 or 20 minutes, wear a hat, sunglasses and protective clothing.  If you are spending a day at the beach, use a broad spectrum 20+ sun-block that contains zinc oxide, the only sun-screening ingredient that has a proven safety record.

Secret #1—Protect Your Skin from the Affects of Time

If you’re like me, you don’t want your face to give away your age.  All of the healthy skin care products that you use should contain natural anti-aging ingredients.  The most effective is called CYNERGY TK.  It was a little difficult to find, but based on the results I got, it is well worth the effort. Make sure it is in your skin care products. – Margaret Bell

Unusual Article Uncovers the Deceptive Practices of Organic Face Cream

Filed under: Healthy Skin Face — "the Skin Guide" @ 3:08 am

Organic face creams provide an outstanding remedy for skin aging issues and can impart you smooth, vibrant and young skin. Antioxidant face cream, organic face creams are all part of an one solution that function unitedly to enhance skin well being and vital force.

Not only do antioxidant face creams, organic face creams prevent skin aging by countering free radical harm, but they also play a superior role in turning back the skin aging effects that have already occurred.

Therefore, if you want to do away with wrinkles, baggy skin, age spots and dark inconsistent skin complexion, then an effective organic face cream offers you the flawless solution.

Let me warn you of the fact that nowadays, the phrase “organic” has grown into a highly abused phrase. Different  skin care cream producers use this phrase for their marketing purposes. It is because the phrase “organic” sells like anything.

Or they just add some little bit of organic ingredients in their creams and then they claim it as organic. Thus, my advice is that instead of just looking at the label being antioxidant organic face cream, you should as a matter of fact check up on each of the substances used.

You should check out that the ingredients are herbal, organic and clinically proved to be effective in clinical trials on human volunteers.

There are two main reasons behind premature aging of skin -

1) Skin cell impairment induced by the action of free radicals.

2) Deceleration in the output of collagen and elastin by our body. These are the two crucial proteins in our skin which are contributive for giving us a healthy, supple, soft and flexible skin.

Hence, the prime essential requirement is to use such herbal ingredients that aid our body naturally in improving the natural production of collagen and elastin in our body. That would not only provide liberation from premature skin aging symptoms, but also impart a vibrant and youthful looking skin for many years.

Here are a few of ingredients that you should consider looking in antioxidant organic face cream -

1) Cynergy TK – It is a latest, effective herbal ingredient from New Zealand. It has been medicinally proven to enhance the natural production of collagen and elastin by our body. Another one of unusual features of Cynergy TK is that it is an “Enzymatic Antioxidant” – It implies that one molecule of Cynergy TK is sufficient for countering hundreds of thousands of free radicals.

2) Phytessence Wakame – This is a great organic ingredient. It is an selection from a particular kind of Japanese sea kelp. In Japan, this sea weed is also consumed as a solid food. Studies have demonstrated that Phytessence Wakame works amazingly in giving supple and youthful skin. It soothes skin inflammation and is an excellent antioxidant.

This is precisely the reason why Phytessence Wakame constitutes a part of my antioxidant organic face cream that I apply daily for an everlasting young skin.
