The Lighter And Darker Side Of Skin Care
Are You In Need Of Vitamin D?
Applying sun screen and keeping away from the sun's harmful rays may cause your body to need Vitamin D. People with dark skin synthesize less vitamin D on exposure to sunlight much less than those with lighter skin. Because Vitamin D plays an important role in skin cell metabolism and growth, it may be helpful in treating the itching and flaking associated with many skin ailments.
Vitamin D is found naturally in very few foods. Foods containing Vitamin D include canned pink salmon, mackerel, & sardines, cow's milk, fortified with vitamin D, orange juice, cereal fortified with vitamin D, egg yolks (from hens that have been fed vitamin D.)
While just 10 to 15 minutes in the summer sun a few days a week supplies adequate amounts of vitamin D, those who can't get out in the sun may need a supplement. Choose a quality Vitamin D or Vitamin A & D in supplement form.
Are You Worried About Wrinkles?
Before trying a surgical face lift - try facial acupuncture. After just one treatment you will notice that your wrinkles have softened your eye under areas as well as the eyelids are firmer, and your pores are tighter. Compare the cost of treatment ranging from $90 to $350 a treatment for facial acupuncture with a surgical face lift ranging from $4,500 up to $15,000.
Do You Use A Natural Quality Skin Cream?
Use a good quality skin cream nightly to keep your skin soft and subtle while sleeping. Check the label and make sure all ingredients are processed without the use of synthetic preservatives or fragrances.
Do You Have Oily Skin?
Oily skin can be tricky. Do not scrub or overdue washing; this can make the skin even oilier. Cleanse your skin simply with a cotton cloth or your fingertips. Use products containing apple juice, black cherry juice, cucumber, dandelion leaf, lemon juice, licorice root and organic lavender. Supplementing with vitamins A, B and C are all good for the skin, especially oily skin.
Are You Plagued By Dry Skin?
To ease dry skin wash twice a day with a quality water-based botanical cleaner. The ingredients should include aloe vera, calendula, green tea, orange peal oil, rose or witch hazel.
Why Not Try DMAE For Your Hair And Skin?
Supplement with DMAE, about 100 mg a day, and you will find your skin will be firmer and less likely to tear, bleed, or develop scrapes and scabs. It will also strengthen your hair follicles.
Quality Water Is Best For Good Skin Care.
Keeping your skin hydrated by drinking 4/8 glasses of quality water daily is the best ticket to plump, firmer more youthful skin. Drink good quality bottled water, distilled being the best.
