Beauty is something we all strive for, men, women, children, and older folks alike. It is an important aspect of every day life, both independently and socially. There are so many factors that could make a person beautiful, whether it be personality, style, values, energy or even the sound of their voice. Physical beauty, however, shouldn’t be minimized in importance and we should always strive to look and present ourselves the best we can. If done correctly, enhancing physical beauty through healthy means will help elevate beauty in other areas as well, and vise versa. Below are some beauty tips we can all take on in order to radiate our greatest presence!

• Exfoliation:

We highly recommend exfoliating your skin on a regular basis. It is an imperative step in your skincare process. Exfoliation gives your skin a powerful cleansing by removing dead skin cells and cleaning out your pores while helping to renew the skin. This leaves the skin cleaner, brighter and more youthful.

• Sunscreen:

Pretty much any dermatologist you might speak to will tell you the same thing. Using sunscreen is imperative to protect the skin from damage caused by UV radiation from the sun. We recommend using sunscreen every day either directly or in your skincare products. The aging process of your skin is largely in your control and sun damage is a leading cause of premature aging. Using SPF 30 and above should assure that your skin will stay healthy and youthful!

• Stop using expired products:

Many of us are sometimes guilty of holding on to certain products well past their expiration dates. This should not be done and the harmful effects of doing so should be known. When a product expires, bacteria can begin to multiply, leaving your skin prone to infection and discomfort. Unfortunately, unlike our products at Nature Only, many products today are packed with chemicals and toxins that may have quite detrimental effects on your skin when they go past their expiration date. In addition to all of this the product simply will not work as well if it’s expired. 

• Leave your pimples alone! 

We know how hard it is to resist the temptation to pop and pick at your pimples. Most don’t know, however, that when popped, the bacteria from the pimple spreads across other parts of your face and body, increasing the chances of continued breakouts. Also, picking at pimples might leave an undesired scar.

• Understand your own skin:

There are many varying skin types that are effected and should be approached differently in skin care. These types of skin vary from oily skin to acne-prone, dry, sensitive, or mature skin. Understanding your own skin is probably the most important step to creating the best possible skincare routine as you can choose products and a routine tailor made for you, by you! 

• Moisturize and use serum: 

Use moisturizers and serums, such as the ones sold on our website, regularly. Our Natural Revitalizer utilizes powerful plant stem cells, antioxidants, ceramides, and peptides to target stressed skin for luminous, moisturized skin all day while our Peptide and Vitamin Serum will give your skin the boost it needs due to the combination of a potent peptide blend with Hyaluronic Acid, CoQ-10, and Niacinimide to help restore and maintain deep hydration all day long. 

Don’t let anybody tell you you’re too young to invest in your skin. The more you care for your skin now the better it will look in the future. There are many tips you can add to your arsenal to ensure healthy and glowing skin, and these six are most definitely important aspects of skin care.
