In this day and age, most of us are increasingly aware of the importance of natural foods and being as natural as possible. Unfortunately, we often fail to apply this rule outside of our body.
Our skin is the largest organ in our system; it absorbs toxins and / or nutrients from any of the products we place in it.The general rule of thumb that applies to food should also apply to our skin care products. If there are more than three sets or you can't easily name it, it shouldn't be in your body!
#1Avoid chemicals product
Many of our problems and skin problems are usually caused by allergies and allergies to any skin care products we use. Most products on the market today contain harmful chemicals and ingredients throughout our environment and in our bodies - all in the name of saving the manufacturer a few dollars.
For example, mineral oil and gasoline are petroleum products and are known as carcinogens. Apart from this, we are expertly advised to use products containing these ingredients to relieve skin irritation in us and children. A baby with or without an immune system should not be covered in a product that can cause cancer. Most of us have less immune system than adults, so avoiding harmful ingredients is a good way to prevent infections.
But how do we do that?
Fortunately, Mother Nature has provided us with many other alternatives to these harmful chemicals. There are other natural and organic methods that should be used such as cream / salt ingredients, massage oil, bath salts, hair care, etc. This natural healing process is often the beginning of traditional medicine. For example, white anaconda bark was a herb used to treat headaches that eventually replaced current aspirin ingredients.
There is no product on the market that is not naturally, physically, and made to heal us, rather than harm us. Our skin care products are an integral part of a holistic, sustainable, and environmentally friendly life. The products of planting wax and nut butters also allow you to stick to our skin for a long time. Unprocessed oils provide our skin with essential oils and nutrients. Essential oils also provide nutrition, while also changing our mood.
While there is deep appreciation and respect for all the technology and scientific advances being offered, it is time to go back to the simplicity of Nature in order to find balance and health. As an example of a simple homemade product, here is a baby powder recipe I could have created in the last few years replacing commercial baby packs. This is safe for children to use.
Rejuvenating Powder
½ cup arrowroot powder
½ white clay cup (also known as Kaolin powder clay)
1/16 cup comfrey roots
1/16 cup smooth elm powder
1/16 cup dried lavender leaves
Add the comfrey roots and lavender leaves to the coffee grinder and process it until it resembles a powdered consistency. Combine all the ingredients in the remaining container you have in the house, shake well to combine, and cover with a lid. Store this powder in a cupboard away from light and excess moisture. Shake before use, as most natural products do not contain chemical ingredients to keep everything indistinguishable.
Lavender leaves add healing properties and a bright, fragrant scent to the powder. Comfrey is very healing for the skin and bones, and the smooth elm adds a nice “soft” feeling to the baby’s most common or talc powder. In fact, you can see that your hands feel a little wet when you wash them, thanks to the smooth elm tree used in this formula.
This recipe makes more than 1 cup, which should last for 1-2 months.
As I was once studying cancer while earning my Masters degree, I was also learning how dangerous ingredients are in the many “healing” oils on the market. My job, or my calling, is to help people get through all the confusion they see and hear about being healthy. I started creating organic tattoo aftercare in 2007 and offered a lot of tips on living life, plant foods, tips sheets, free downloads, and product information on
