For most women, part of the morning and evening routines involve
a skincare regimen of applying creams, moisturizers, tonics,
lotions, and the like. Why do women put themselves through this?
They do it primarily to combat the signs of aging, and to
maintain youthful looks and beautiful skin! It is a safe bet,
however, that most women haven't put much thought into what is
in the products that they are using.
Some women probably do not realize that what they are putting on
their skin may actually be undermining what they are trying to
prevent to begin with. In fact the average woman puts twelve
products on her skin daily, most of which contain harmful
chemical preservatives. Dr. Myron Wentz, founder and chairperson
of USANA Health Sciences, has this to say about beauty in the
company magazine's June/July 2005 issue: "Some say that beauty
is only skin deep. Nonsense! I believe that true beauty is a
reflection of true health, and true health begins deep inside
each and every cell in the body. But true health and true beauty
have an outer component, which is why we require protection from
environmental insults such as solar radiation, pollutants in our
environment and the drying effects of air. . . The fact is you
simply cannot contain a healthy body if your skin isn't healthy.
And your skin can't be healthy if your are subjecting it to
toxic substances that are ultimately absorbed into your body."
So, what can women do? How can they combat environmental
pollutants, the affect of solar radiation, and the drying
effects of air? How can they be sure they are using the very
best products on their skin so they can be healthy inside and
out? Here are 7 tips to assist in this process:
1. Be very aware of what is in skincare products. Use products
that are all natural as much as possible.
2. Look for products that contain Dermal Surface Renewal
Technology. DSR smoothes away existing signs of aging such as
laugh lines, crows feet, and dullness.
3. Use products that have regenisomes. Regenisomes penetrate the
skin to speed cell renewal after sun exposure. They also use the
light of photosomes to undo sun damage, and have ultrasomes to
renew skin while sleeping.
4. Find products with Proteo-C and Proflavonol-T. These two
vitamins protect the skin from premature aging caused by the
sun, pollution, and other environmental factors. They also
provide advanced nutrition to the skin to keep it appearing
smooth and firm.
5. If possible, use products that are paraben free. Parabens are
synthetic chemical preservatives that are widely used in
personal care products such as shampoos, conditioners, hair
styling products, make-up, facial masks, skin lotions and
creams, and deodorants. They also are typically ingredients in
baby lotions, shampoos, and other personal care products for
infants and children. In addition, parabens are in many foods
and pharmaceutical products. Researchers are beginning to find
parabens in benign and malignant human breast tumors. While some
studies have challenged their toxicity in many products and
question their long term affect on humans, using products that
are paraben free can eliminate the risk of exposure to this
harmful chemical.
6. Drink plenty of water! Water hydrates skin and hair as well
as flushes toxins out of the body.
7. Limit stress or learn to manage it effectively. Stress is
harmful both emotionally and physically. Find that stress
reliever activity that works best and use it on a daily basis!
Follow the above 7 tips to true beauty and health.
