Skin is in. It’s all the rage to have a healthy, glowing epidermis.
(I’ve literally seen an eyebrow renaissance thanks to these healthy fats.)
Refined sugars and carbs worsen hormonal acne that you see along the jawline and chin.
Here’s the kind I use, linked here.
4. Wash your makeup off.
Every. Single. Night.
Your skin needs a naked face to regenerate. A face caked with makeup all day and night WILL age you faster. Plus think of all the non-organic products you most likely apply to your face on a daily basis.
(hey, we can’t all afford organic beauty products)
Chemical city. Scrub, scrub 🙂
5. SPF.
No really, have you seen how young asian people look!?
The sun is so so damaging to our skin and the effort it takes to reverse the sun’s damage is colossal.
Save yourself the trouble and don’t damage your precious face in the first place!
All the water, creams, oils, green juices, peels, facials, and prayers will fall flat as a paleo pancake if you are out in the sun receiving regular damage to your face.
Can you see how it’s counter productive to apply a serum that helps reduce pigmentation of the face, when you are worsening the pigmentation from exposure to the sun?
Also, don’t forget neck, chest, and shoulders too for SPF. Use a block vs. a screen if at all possible and re-apply like a really annoying mom to her kids at the beach.
hah.
Good skin is worth fighting for. Even just toting around a refillable water bottle to work can allow for a major skin upgrade.
Take it day by day, and pay attention to how your skin reacts to certain foods you eat and products you apply. Ultimately your body will tell you what’s up.
Cheers to beautiful, naked skin!
Talks soon, XO

These are some great tips! I started forcing myself to drink more water last month and it's made a huge difference, not just to my skin but I feel physically better too. I really need to use SPF though – I have a bad habit of thinking "my foundation has it in so its fine"
