Here’s What You Didn’t Know About Skin Wellness

Skin wellness encompasses so much more than the skincare products you use (although these are important). What you consume, your exercise practices, and so much more also influence your skin.

When you feel your best, you look your best! 

Follow these easy ideas for naturally healthier skin:

Topical Tips:

+ Ensure all ingredients in the products you use are free of toxic ingredients.

+ EWG is a great resource to check the ingredients of your products. 

+ Make sure what you are using is working with your skin, not against it. If the products you’re using are not designed to help address your skin concerns, you could be making things worse.

+ Avoid chemical UV filters like octinoxate and oxybenzone. Try our clean sunscreen!

Choose Health and Beauty Products Carefully:

+ Choosing the right products includes health and beauty products like shampoo, toothpaste, and makeup.

+ Clean, cruelty-free ingredients are a must when it comes to cosmetic, hair care, and fragrance products. 

+ We also recommend avoiding products that contain harsh parabens, phthalates, and sulfates. Reference ingredient-checker apps like these to get an in-depth understanding of what’s in your products.

Implement a Skin-Healthy Diet:

+ Start with making sure you are eating a balanced diet with adequate protein.

+ Consume foods rich in beneficial omega-3 fatty acids like avocados, salmon, chia seeds, oysters, blueberries, and more!

+ Take supplements that support skin and hair health like biotin, collagen-promoting products, and probiotics. Try our all-in-one pre- and probiotic supplement!

+ Avoid processed sugars and preservatives when possible.

Incorporate Daily Exercise:

+ Intentional movement is essential for mental and physical health, but it also affects skin wellness. Don’t be intimidated! This can include low-intensity movement like walking and stretching.

+ Regular exercise improves your body’s natural collagen production which helps keep skin looking youthful, while also improving blood flow which circulates more oxygen and nutrients to the skin.

+ Note: Be sure to properly cleanse after any vigorous activity where you sweat.
