When we are young, we often take the beauty and resilience of our skin for granted. Smooth, wrinkle-free, evenly toned skin is attractive and healthy looking. However, the habits we develop when we are young influence how our skin ages. Too much sun, poor hydration, an inadequate diet, stress and not enough sleep affect our skin. Over time, skin may develop dark spots, wrinkles and crow’s feet around the eyes. Skin eventually loses resilience due to the reduction of collagen and elastin.

It is never too early to start pampering and protecting your skin. Here are life-long anti-aging tips to keep your skin healthy and nourished.

Skin Health and Its Microbiome

The skin, the largest organ of the body, provides a protective covering that locks out environmental pollutants, blocks solar radiation and keeps germs and other pathogens from entering our bodies. Taking care of our skin is an important part of maintaining overall health. Eating healthy foods, keeping hydrated, getting enough sleep and reducing stress keep our bodies healthy. These good habits also keep our skin healthy.

The skin has its own microbiome, consisting of millions of organisms that protect it and your body. The microbiome keeps germs out, helps maintain your immune system and controls inflammation. Each person’s microbiome is unique. Part develops at birth, and part develops in response to environmental, social and health factors.

Healthy Habits that Nourish Skin

Just as you eat a healthy diet to care for and nourish your body, so should you develop healthy habits that protect and nourish your skin. Drinking enough water, getting essential vitamins and minerals and protecting your skin from the sun’s ultraviolet rays are life-long habits that keep skin healthy. There are more ways to protect and nourish your skin.

Use skincare products that nourish, replace oils and protect your skin’s natural microbiome. As you may have experienced, not all skincare products are good for your skin.

Think of skincare products as food for your skin. Look for those steeped in essential oils, vitamins, probiotics and antioxidants to keep your skin healthy and glowing.

Cleanse, Hydrate and Protect

Dermatologists recommend using a mild soap twice a day to remove environmental pollutants and bacteria that can harm your skin. In the morning, cleansing removes dead cells and perspiration. In the evening, cleansing removes dirt, makeup and other impurities.

Our Nourishing Cleanser contains prebiotics that support your skin’s microbiome, gentle cleansers that bind water to the skin, antioxidants and essential fatty acids that help restore natural oils that protect your skin all day long.

After cleansing, layer skincare products to get the maximum anti-aging effects from nourishing ingredients that keep your skin healthy. Toners prepare your skin to absorb the active ingredients in moisturizers and serums. Apply sunscreen last to protect against harmful UV rays that are present even on cloudy days.

Use a facial serum before applying moisturizer. Although there are many serums on the market, the best anti-aging serums are light and thin in viscosity so that they penetrate into the deepest layers of skin. We make a day serum and a night serum that work with our day and night anti-aging creams to hydrate, reduce fine lines and keep your skin young-looking.

Our day and night moisturizers restore firmness, enhance elasticity and help prevent skin discoloration. Replenishing Night Cream works while you sleep, replenishing collagen and elastin and reducing inflammation.

Apply sunscreen a few minutes before you start your makeup. Makeup is the final layer of your daytime facial care routine. It adds color, creates a smooth, even surface and minimizes skin discoloration.
