Reflecting on the Truth of Aging Skin

Staring at the wrinkles around your eyes or laugh lines that have formed around your lips, it would be easy to blame their appearance on aging. But chances are there are other factors that have contributed to their existence.

For instance the Spring Break vacations or weekends you spent sun bathing, surfing or reading by the pool in your teens or 20s can be directly linked to more than 80 percent of your skin's aging. In fact, did you know that half a lifetime's worth of UV exposure occurs by age 18?

And the reality check doesn't stop there. Smoking, drinking, neglecting your diet, even lack of sleep can cause inflammation, dark circles, lines and wrinkles. In fact, some of the efforts you've been taking to care for your skin may be your skin's undoing. Harsh cleansers or abrasive scrubs may be stripping your skin's natural oils and moisture levels, and doing more harm than good. Even the moisturizers you use to hydrate your skin can lead to acne, infection or other problems if they include ingredients that prevent your skin from being able to breathe.

But do not despair, there are simple things you can do each day to help restore the radiance and health of your skin.

Sure you can keep your skin hydrated by drinking plenty of water and eat healthier--incorporate 5 to 10 serving of fruits and vegetables a day. Even adding a daily multi-nutrient liquid supplement will help. But to get to the heart of your skin's health, you must restore it at a cellular level. This means incorporating all natural products (cleaners, scrubs, serums, lotions and treatments) to your daily health regimen.

All natural skin solutions, rich in emollients, antioxidants, vitamins, organic herbs and essential oils will soothe your skin, reduce inflammation, improve pigmentation, minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and much more.

In fact, apply this rule of thumb to the skin products under your sink and in your vanity, if you cannot pronounce the name of an ingredient on the label, you probably don't want to apply it to your face and/or skin.
