Good day everyone!🌤🍂🍁Cold days and nights are here already! Warm clothes are needed to keep our body warm! This upcoming season makes us to start nourishing our skin rather than moisturising! I’m just wondering what are you looking for when buying skin products?🤔 I would like to share with you some useful tips to choose right products to keep your skin healthy and protected! Let start what skin is? The skin is composed of various interrelated net-works. Important constituents are: collagen fibers, capillaries, elastic fibers, lymphatics and nerve fibres. What are the main functions of the skin? Provides a protective barrier, prevents loss of moisture, reduces harmful effects of UV radiation, acts as a sensory organ, helps regulate temperature, an immune organ to detect infection. It also helps to get rid of toxins from your body! Your skin can also absorb chemical toxins when not protected!Everyday showers and baths are needed to remove dead skin and wash off toxins. Many of us use antiperspirants to reduce sweat. Many of us use deodorant to mask odor. Have you ever checked what actually is in your skincare cosmetics?🤔 Deodorants are based on alcohol. When applied, it turns your skin acidic, which makes it less attractive to bacteria. Deodorants also contain perfume. Antiperspirant role is to block sweat pores. To do that they are based on aluminium compounds, parabens, propylene glycol, phthalates. Those substances are dangerous to your overall health if applied on your armpit every day and absorbed by tissue! Aluminium- may cause breast cancer, prostate cancer, Altzhaimer’s disease. Parabens-increase risk of cancer, disrupt hormones, harm fertility and reproduction organs, cause skin irritation. Propylene glycol-allergy, damage to central nervous system, heart and liver. Phthalates-block female hormones, may cause breast cancer. Always check the lebel! The same rule applies to all creams, lotions, cosmetics, hand soaps, washing liquids! We have many organic skin care cosmetics. They are perfect for everyday use! My favourite are based on natural oils. It gives your skin nutrients needed to keep your skin elastic and firm. Natural way of keeping your skin healthy is dinking plenty of water with collagen. Exercise every day, improve your diet and get enough sleep! Use coffee grounds scrub to massage and remove dead skin. Vit C is perfect antioxidant for mature skin.

I hope these tips will make you wiser in choosing your skin care products! Do not trust the marketing! Believe in your common sense and knowledge! Enjoy your weekend my lovely readers!🥰
