Organic Eye Cream

by Kate

I was on the edge when it came to my break outs. I tried different products, but I ended up with allergies. What a total mess! When my friend Janet shared her skin care secret with me, I wasn't really enthusiastic, I'm sure you'd be as disappointed as I am when I've tried a gazzilion products. A week later, that little secret skin care of hers has become my daily ritual. And, too much of a good thing can't be kept too long. I mean, what would I say when all our friends started complimenting my skin? *wink

What Causes Pimples?

by Kate

I thought to give the topic of organic products a break and focus on the cause of pimples. Even when you have the best skin care product, if your habits lead to pimple formation, all your efforts will be in vain.

So what are the causes of pimples?

  1. Genes- Even when you take so much care of your skin, there is a tendency that your genes may be responsible for your skin nightmares. If this is the case, it is important that you seek out the help of a dermatologist. It is possible that your parents have overly oily skin, and these leads to the constant formation of pimples on your face.

Is Dead Sea Salt Good For the Skin?

September 22, 2010

Dead Sea Salt is one of the ideas added to the already complicated world of skin care. So, do they work? Yes they do.

Several studies have already been made on the benefits that dead sea salt can give to the skin. Several studies have concluded, that it’s so good for the skin, it can even be used for treatment for psoriasis. It is highly effective for improving dry skin. The probable reason for this is the magnesium, bromide, and other counter ions that are contained in Dead Sea Salt.

Vitamins For Dark Circles

September 17, 2010

There are several types of jobs that require you to be up during the wee hours of the evening. It’s awful. Not only do you need to alter your circadian rhythm, or biological clock, but it also stresses out your skin. One of the things that I really hate are dark circles around the  eyes. It takes several applications of concealer to totally hide these discolorations.

So, what’s a girl, or guy got to do? If you absolutely cannot avoid sleeping late, then you should back up with loads of vitamins. Wait, vitamins are so you don’t get sick right? Well not really. Aside from making you healthy, or your skin supple, there is also a certain vitamin that can help you get rid of those dark circles. That is Vitamin K.

Organic Skin Care Reviews

September 15, 2010

Hi Everyone! I can hardly contain my excitement. I’ve been reading through the forums I participate in, and I didn’t realize how many women and men out there are looking for reviews on organic skin care. And so, last night, I gave it some thought and decided, I can do this.

I’ve tried a lot of skin care products out there, some organic, and a lot of chemical based products. I’ve felt how my face reacted to these products and I thought, boy if someone would only tell me what actually worked or not, I wouldn’t have wasted thousands of dollars on skin care products that just caused havoc on my skin.

Would You Put Alcohol on Your Skin?

September 14, 2010
USDA Organic Skin Care Seal

Alcohol has existed in skin care products for many years already to the point that it seems like they are treated as a requirement. However, they are notorious for causing dryness as well as irritations.

Alcohols alone can bring about awful impact on the skin because it dilates the blood vessels and thus, interfere with our skin’s processing of Vitamin A. When there is a reduction of absorbed Vitamin A, there is an acceleration of premature aging that causes wrinkles and fine lines to be more visible on the skin. This goes the same for alcohol which is consumed. It increases flushing of the skin, thus decreasing the absorption and efficacy of Vitamin A. it also increases the toxicity of Vitamin A and carotene.
