Organic Tips for Skin Care Part 1

5. Limit your exposure to hot water, because it dries your skin. Don’t take too many hot baths. If you do, add pure essential oils (a couple of spoons of olive oil, for example) or sea minerals to protect your skin from drying. A quick shower is your best choice, especially in winter. You don’t need expensive moisturizes to apply afterwards. Natural oils are the best. Olive oil works great especially for those who suffer from eczema.

6. If you have extra money to spare, buy creams with organic ingredients. They are much friendlier for your skin and the best for your body.

7. Another organic tip is – buy a humidifier to add moisture to your house. It doesn’t have to be expensive. Cheaper brands usually work just as well.

8. I cannot stress this well enough. STAY AWAY FROM THE SUN! It not only dries your skin, but speeds up the aging process. It greatly increases your chances to get skin cancer. If you think that looking tan is a must for you, buy self-tanning creams or lotions.

If sometimes sun exposure is unavoidable, use sunscreens with at least SPF-15 (the higher the SPF the better).

9. If you use make-up, make sure you clean your skin everyday before going to bed, because leaving make-up on overnight will clog your pores. Good natural make-up removers are jojoba and rose hip oils. Plain yogurt works very well also.

10. Stop smoking or don’t ever start. It will greatly improve your skin color and health.

11. Try to get enough sleep every night. Your body and skin need to re-energize at night. Be easy on them.

12. Even though it is extremely tempting, do not squeeze spots and black heads. It will only make things worse and may cause permanent damage to your skin (trust me, I know).

13. Do not ever scrub your skin too hard (especially on your face). Be gentle when drying it with a towel and removing make up.

14. Finally, the most important thing – exercise regularly (don’t roll your eyes). Exercising increases circulation and delivery of nutrients to your skin cells. Besides, it is good for your entire body, not only skin.

So, don’t think that if you buy a $150 cream, you will look 15 years younger within a week. Even if you really want to…But with these organic tips you will stay gorgeous without spending a fortune.
