Bonus tips on Eczema below!
Exfoliate
Pretty much everyone should be exfoliating. Our skin cells are always regenerating and the best way to get the dead ones gone is to exfoliate. Brighten up your skin and allow your moisturizer to absorb in better. You’ll love how soft your skin feels afterwards. This is a step that only needs to be done one to two times a week.
When it comes to exfoliating from the neck down you'll want to use a salt or sugar scrub. I talk about them more in this clip that's less than 10 minutes.
Hydrate
Once you have exfoliated you will notice you need less product to moisturize your skin. Now it does take some getting used to as many are so use to using a whole lot more product. Many times people are either over or under moisturizing and that can cause issues in itself. Start with a little and then add as needed.
What I love about these moisturizers is they actually hydrate the skin! They do not contain mineral oil. Mineral oil or petroleum is a by product of oil refining and does not hydrate the skin. In fact, it sits on top of the skin and can even clog pores. While it sits on top of your skin it's easily wiped off therefore you are reapplying & that vicious cycle starts !
Stop the constant reapplication cycle and use a moisturizer that hydrates your skin!
I always recommend flipping over the bottle you are currently using and see how many ingredients you can identify. Plus how many ingredients are listed on the Top 12 to avoid list?

Wash
Winter especially we are told to wash our hands all the time. Plus everyone has it ingrained to use an antibacterial soap, right? Well look up on that Top 12 list at Triclosan & trilocarban.....maybe we don't really want to be using those antibacterial soaps after all. If your skin is dry after using them, it's a sure sign to kick them to the curb.
Let me introduce you to Prebiotics! Prebiotic Hand Wash offers a pH balanced gel that naturally removes dirt and more without destroying the good bacteria on my skin. It makes your skin feel satisfyingly clean and debris-free but not ravaged or stripped as it never dries out your skin.
Here's a little more on Prebiotics:
Bonus! Look at all these amazing uses for a simple ingredient hand wash!
If you or someone you know has to wash their hands constantly for their job, be sure to share this with them!
We also carry the Prebiotic line over into a body wash and a facial wash! You can have healthier skin head to toe!
Balms - Added Extra Strength
First, let's talk Healing Elements Balm as that was mentioned in the last graphic above. It's the balm all households should have at least one jar of! When you look at all the uses what would you be using it for at your house?
In case your household or someone you know needs a nut free option, we've got you covered! The Skin & Nail Balm provides many of the same benefits. Plus it is also unscented & a nut free product. The Healing Elements Balm is scented with lavender essential oil and vanilla essential oil.

Bonus Tips for Eczema:
1) Switch detergents, cleaning products, and soaps to FREE & CLEAR options that do not contain synthetic fragrance or alcohol.
2) Reduce the number of baths and use lukewarm water to reduce irritation. For added healing benefits, add 1/2 cup of RAW Apple Cider Vinegar with "the mother" to bathwater.
3) Use extra rinse option on your washing machine to remove all detergents from clothing.
4) Be mindful of gluten, dairy, & other top allergens. Gluten is known to encourage flare ups. Aim for progress, not perfection.
5) Utilize a natural skincare routine that will soothe and heal
6) Try your best to minimize exposure to PFAS. Commonly found in Sparkling Waters (LaCroix, Bubly, Topo Chico, etc), Teflon pans, fast food wrappers. These are very hard to spot as they are not typically listed. However, I have a friend who saw a wonderful improvement in her eczema after she gave up drinking LaCroix.
