The good news is that such a miracle product does exist. It’s called Parfait Visage™. It doesn’t have to be expensive or even difficult to keep your skin looking young and healthy for years to come. The key to beautiful skin is learning to control or minimize the factors which cause skin damage.
The Sun during Mid-Day
The sun is your skin's worst enemy. Its ultraviolet rays can damage the delicate cells and tissues of the skin, causing age spots, wrinkling, premature aging, and even cancer.
Certain vitamins, topical additives and moisturizers can help to protect the skin from harmful solar radiation, and the free radical damage that follows. Free radicals are capable of destroying both the collagen and elastin in the skin. Dermatologists estimate that 90% of the skin damage associated with aging can be directly attributed to ultraviolet exposure. But sun damage can be prevented and even reversed with the consistent intake of vitamins and the regular use of a quality skin care products.
Sunscreen, sunscreen, sunscreen. The most important thing you can do to protect the beauty of your skin is to consistently wear a quality organic sunscreen product (SPF of 15 or higher). Sunscreen can protect your skin from the damaging rays of the sun and help prevent the premature aging caused by sun exposure.
- Certain vitamins, such as vitamins A, B, C, D, and E are very good for the overall health of the skin. These nutrients can also help to reduce and even reverse the effects of sun damage.
Time
Age related skin changes are the result of genetic influence, internal nutrition, and the general wear and tear we place on our bodies. As skin begins to age, it shows characteristic traits, including wrinkles, sallow skin coloration, blemishes, and pigmented lesions such as freckles and age spots.
Aging skin also exhibits a loss of tone, elasticity, increased fragility, areas of discoloration caused by blood vessel weakness and benign lesions such as keratoses, telangiectasias (spider veins), and skin tags. While we can't turn back the clock, there are certain things we can do to minimize the effects of aging on our skin.
- Cleanse your skin with Aquaspirit® in the mornings and evenings to remove the makeup, dirt, and pollutants that accumulate throughout the day.
- Treat your skin gently over the years. Avoid pulling or scratching the skin. Stay away from harsh products that may irritate skin or aggravate blemishes.
Stress
Stress, anxiety and depression can have detrimental effects on the health of the skin. One of the major factors which takes a toll on the skin is stress. People who experience chronic emotional imbalances may pay the price externally, with skin that makes them look older than they actually are. Reducing stress is vital to the overall health of the skin.
- Practice stress management techniques such as yoga or meditation to calm the mind, reduce stress, and improve the flow of energy within the body.
- An herbal facial can help to relax the mind, reduce stress, and visibly improve the condition of the skin.
Nutrition
A healthy diet is absolutely essential to maintaining the health of the skin. The body needs 40 different vitamins and minerals on a daily basis in order to keep all of its systems functioning smoothly. When the diet is lacking these nutrients, the whole body suffers, including the skin. The skin needs vitamins and minerals to grow new tissue, repair damaged tissue, reduce inflammation, control allergies, protect against toxic substances and minimize the damage caused by harmful free radicals.
A balanced diet is important for the beauty of the skin, and the overall health of the body. If the skin has the benefit of proper nutrients fueling its growth from the inside, it will be able to fend off damage and maintain its youthful appearance on the outside. Here are a few tips you can sue to feed your skin.
- Do not starve yourself. Consult your health care professional to develop a sensible and healthy weight loss regime that will work best for you. A drastic reduction in calories and nutrients will show on the face every time.
- Avoid caffeine, alcohol, smoking, sugar and salt. These substances are bad for your health and detrimental for your skin.
- Limit spicy foods if your skin is sensitive. These foods will aggravate the irritation to your skin and may even cause the development of blemishes.
- Stay hydrated. Increasing your purified water intake will help to hydrate the skin and release toxins from the body.
