Summer has come and gone, bringing about the start of fall and the need for a new natural skin care routine. During the fall season weather changes and the same skin care products you were using during warmer summer months may not be as effective in preventing dry skin and should be replaced. This fall switch to natural skin care products and try creating some of your own with the easy to make recipes below.[]
Below are five awesome skin care recipes you can make at home to tackle the most common issues we face - on our face.Learn to use everyday fruits, vegetables and nature-made ingredients that are readily available at your local grocery store for the following treatments.Exfoliate Dead Skin Cells.Dissolve the old dead cell while you clean out your pores with this simple exfoliating blend of pineapple and olive oil.
With fall comes colder weather and the drying air of heaters. Don't let your skin pay the price. Prevent flaking by using a shielding lotion. A shielding lotion works to strengthen your skin's own natural barrier helping it to better maintain its own oils and moisture. The skin's natural oils are the secret to keeping dry skin at bay.It's important not to forget about your hands. Colder weather can cause painful cracking and peeling skin. For natural skin care try massaging hands with half a cup of plain yogurt mixed with the juice of one lemon into hands and rinse before applying a shielding lotion
The first is an easy, two-ingredient solution that can be put together quickly for routine cleaning.Simply combine baking soda with water to make a paste.Apply to your face or at least the blackhead problem areas for 10 minutes and let this absorbant mask wick out the oil and debris clogging the follicles.(Notice how we said "clogged pores" above and then "clogged follicle" just now? The pore is the opening fine skin hairs grow out of - they're the same thing. Now you know!)
During summer fruity scented body washes and scrubs tend to be a favorite in many showers. These products usually contain fragrances and other chemicals that can dry and damage skin. This fall replace those fruity smelling products with a natural body wash that is soap free and won't cause skin to become dry and tight. To make your own natural body scrub simply mix 1 cup of regular or brown sugar with cup of extra virgin olive oil. If you want a scented scrub try using an olive oil infused with rosemary or another herb.
Pamper your skin and keep it hydrated during colder fall months with a weekly facial. Halloween and Thanksgiving aren't the only occasions for pumpkin, have it make an appearance in your own natural skin care mask. For an easy do it yourself pumpkin mask, just combine 1 cup of canned pumpkin mashed with an egg yolk and a few tablespoons of buttermilk. Then smooth the mixture onto your face and neck, letting sit for 30 minutes before rinsing.Skin care products have developed greatly since the ancient Egyptians started using natural ingredients back in 4th millennium BC. Use of natural ingredients such as bee venom (which incidentally has made a comeback in skin care), milk and honey to enhance their skin was well documented as were the many natural cosmetic ingredients found in our mothers and grandmothers kitchens such as oat masks and sugar rubs.
A few drops of you favorite non-irritating essential oil can be added to supplement the treatment. What's non-irritating? We don't recommend peppermint, for example! Lavender or other flower essences would work fine.Make Your Own Homemade MoisturizerSun in the summer and wind in the winter dry out our skin robbing us of the supple look of youth. Restore that moisture the natural way with this simple recipes that uses only two ingredients!
As a result of this casual approach to skin care ingredient, many mainstream skin care products made today contain synthetic chemical ingredients including dyes and fragrances and of course preservatives such as parabens, which can mimic the hormone oestrogen, which has been shown, in some studies, to be linked to breast cancer and urogenital abnormalities.Sometimes there are very good reasons for putting parabens, in particular, into a product; a cosmetic is likely to be more toxic if it has gone off than the preservatives themselves so it is the best of a bad choice. One of the reasons why preservatives are so important is because big manufacturers make huge batches of their products and ship them around the world and the products need to withstand uncontrolled shipping and storage environments. Also if they did have a batch that went off the cost of recalling hundreds of thousands of products from around the world would be astronomical, not to mention the bad publicity.
