Beautiful skin begins within

Most ladies buy their skincare based on celebrity appeal or the free lipstick or gift. What a terrible reason to buy a particular brand, dont you think?

Over the last 8 years, I've been suprised as ladies keep changing their skincare brands every 2 years. Don't they realise by now, that unless they take care of within, it cannot show up on their skin.

Your skin is the largest organ of your body and the condition of your skin, depends very much on your how clean your blood is and how alkaline your blood is. With a regular detox and acid alkaline balance, you can enjoy softer, smoother, clearer and problem free skin, everyday.

The Basics of Acne Break-outs

After receiving so many questions related to ACNE, it is with pleasure that I highlight the basics of breakouts in this brief, yet informative article.

Acne is a disease and arguably one of the most complex diseases to treat. It is physically and emotionally devastating. There is no single disease that I can think of that causes more emotional damage or more insecurity and feelings of inferiority. Ultimately, hormones are usually to blame.

Increased production of sex hormones is the primary stimulus, especially testosterone. These androgens enter the blood stream and affect the sebaceous glands in the follicles of the skin. The sebaceous glands secrete sebum, which softens and lubricates the skin, however, the overproduction of these androgens stimulate the glands to produce more sebum. Ultimately, this sebum moves toward the skins surface and this is where the complications occur.

The follicle starts to get "plugged" with hair, sebum, bacteria, dead skin cells and other debris. The plug swells as the material accumulates and is pushed out to the surface of the skin resulting in a whitehead. When this whitehead reaches the surfaces and oxidizes, in conjunction with the presence of melanin, we have a blackhead.

A microorganism, such as P. Acnes, consumes the sebum and release enzymes, which break down the fatty acids further irritating the skin. The tissue reddens, becomes inflamed and papules appear. The body goes into overdrive trying to defend itself with white blood cells and as these white blood cells die, pimples and nodules start to develop.

Beneficial treatments I recommend are 2 prong - Nutritional and Skincare.

Nutritional:-

Do an internal cleansing using Nature's Tea, Red Clover Plus, Paraway Plus and SuperChlorophyll for 30 days.

After cleansing, drink Superchlorophyll and LifAloe daily, to balance the high acidity levels.

Skincare:-

Day time - cleanse face using a mild Creamy Cleanser, Hydrating Refiner and apply Dr Berman's Aboriginal Gold Skin Comforting creme.

Night Time - cleanse face using a mild Creamy Cleanser, Hydrating Refiner and apply the Anti-bacterial, Anti-septic Green Tea Oil.

Twice weekly - apply Dr Berman's Mineral Mask to draw out the toxins from the face.

You will stop the acne break-outs and will smoothen the skin, reduce the pores and lighten the scars with this simple skincare regime.
