Why I Love my skin

Why I Love my skin

It’s the material that drapes our bodies or clad our flesh. Am I being a little too poetic? Maybe, but realistically our skin is what protects our body from so many micro organisms, whether anaerobic or aerobic that dwells among us daily. Despite grasping the subway railing and then touching our face, our opening the office door followed by scratching the lobe of our ear, we are constantly making contact with our skin and external platforms.

Now unless your name is Adrian Monk and you have Sharona or Natalie walking around with you as your nurse, most definitely your hygiene will be compromised daily by so many factors. But lets concentrate a bit on a part of the body in which we immediately see as we meet someone. This part happens to be the most cared for and endures countless beauty regimes morning, noon and night. Yes, I speak of the face, the imperative facial part of our body that sells a person’s physical beauty and distinct looks.  Sometimes we use so many products on our face that we have negative reactions to them. Blush, powders, compounds foundations and God alone knows what other wonder remedies are instituted that only a mason will dream off is used to cleanse, accentuate, and elevate cosmetology facially. Now don’t get me wrong; I’m a little hottie myself and like to wear specific brands of make up to add that sultry and refined look when I go out, but at that same time I was fortunate to understand that my face is probably one of the most vulnerable and sensitive part of my body.

About four years ago I was introduced to a non-toxic company. I was amazed and thankful I learnt a lot about the harmful effects of the products we use on a daily basis. Since then I do my best to use organic products.

I walked in to Sephora and asked the skin expert for exactly what I was looking for in my beauty regimen. She then directed me to a line of products that I use till date. Here is a breakdown:
