Skin is one of the first things others notice about you, and is probably the first thing you notice about yourself. We area always our biggest critics. Having skin that is problematic not only affects how you look but it puts a strain on your mental health as well. When we feel good about what we look like it makes a big difference in our confidence and self esteem. Who wouldn't want beautiful clear skin.
Here are some factors that play a role in how our skin looks:
- Good-quality sleep: Its not necessarily how many hours you get, its the quality of that sleep. Like everything else, everyone's needs are different. Lavender is an amazing option to help you calm, and get the restful sleep you need. It is great in a roller and in the diffuser.
- Exfoliate: Do you exfoliate? It is so important to do this a few times a week. It helps maintain the texture of our skin. Our Invigorating scrub is ideal for exfoliation or you can make your own scrub with the essential oils you already have. https://www.doterra.com/US/en/blog/diy-brightening-grapefruit-facial-scrub
- Relieve stress in your life: Stress is so powerful it can affect so many things. It can cause dehydration, increase blemishes and wrinkles. Have you ever tried mediating? I love my CALM app to get me started in the morning and calm me before bed. Other great suggestions are breathing deeply, exercising, getting a regular massage, and taking time for yourself. Use Balance, Lavender, and Lemon to help combat stress.
- Drink more water: Are you drinking enough water? I definitely am not good at this... You need to drink at least eight glasses of water each day to help rid your skin of toxins and help it regain the radiance and moisture it deserves. I like to add anything citrus, but I start my morning with Lemon, then in the afternoon I move to Grapefruit.
- What are you putting on your skin? doTERRA offers a diverse line of gentle, natural skin care products to help you get the beautiful, smooth skin you deserve. I love the Verage line or the Essentials line. For my kids who have more acne prone skin they use the HD clear line.
- Take vitamins: Great skin starts when you first take care of your health. What you put into your body will come out in your skin. Our doTERRA Lifelong Vitality Pack® which offers over 55 mg of omega-3s, a blend of 210 mg of plant-sourced fatty acids, vitamins A, C, E, an energy complex of B, and potent levels of natural botanical extracts that support healthy cell function is a great option. I start here with all of my customers. It tends to fix a lot of problems and the best part it has a 30 day money back guarantee so you have nothing to lose.
- Eating healthily: What you eat affects your skin as well. So our diet affects not only your internal health, but also the health of your skin. Stay away from sugar as much as possible.
- Exercising: you must move your body every day for 30 minutes. Even if it is just a walk. You have to move to stay healthy.... Deep blue can help you in that department. Whether you are an athlete, an avid walked, runner, fitness guru you will love Doterra's Deep blue. Anything and everything muscle ache, pains, inflammation.
Its not just about what you put on your skin, a well balanced lifestyle plays a huge role. Do you want to get started?
