A professional skin care regime is one of the most important
parts of maintaining your skin's health. Your skin is not a
smooth surface like a sheet of glass. On the contrary, your skin
is more like a riverbed, full of little lumps, bumps, crevasses
and holes. You can give these dermatological names such as fine
lines, pores, sebaceous glands, etc., but at the end of the day
the fact remains your skin is far from a flat, smooth surface.
Because of this and because your skin is a living, breathing
part of your body and fulfils several major functions including
temperature regulation, immune defence, protection from the
external environment, etc., you will need to look after it if
you wish to have it work at its optimal level and hope to have
good, healthy skin into your late 70's and beyond.
What about the type of products I should use for my skin care
regime?
You should always choose natural skin care products as
many commercially mass-produced skin care products utilise
potentially toxic chemicals and highly modified 'natural'
ingredients.
Wildcrafted Herbal Products hand makes a range of holistically-natural skin
care products suitable for your particular skin
type. These
products are based on traditional naturopathic principles and
utilize herbal extracts and essential oils to produce lasting
effects.
Their products are designed to benefit your skin's health for
the long term and include only the best ingredients suitable for
your specific skin type.
Daily Skin Care Regime
Cleansing your skin
Cleansing your skin is one of the most important steps if you
want to maintain a healthy, vibrant and youthful looking skin.
As well as providing the basis for an advanced skin care
regime, effective cleansing can actually improve the quality of
our skin, enhancing its radiance and keeping it looking younger
for longer.
Thorough cleansing is one of the most important steps of a
complete skin care regime. Cleansing of your skin should be done
morning and night to ensure the removal of surface impurities,
make-up, and stale skin oils. When regularly performed cleansing
will enhance the skin's ability to breathe and maintain its
other important functions.
One of the best ways to do this is to make cleansing your skin
part of your daily skin care regime.
This is how you do

it:
First, moisten your face with lukewarm water. Then apply a small
amount of facial cleanser. Gently spread the product over your
skin, using light, circular movements. At this stage, spend an
extra minute massaging the product into your face to boost your
skin's circulation and help decongestion.
Secondly, be sure to be gentle, your skin is a delicate organ
and needs to be treated with care and respect.
Lastly, rinse off the cleanser, using lukewarm water and pat
your face dry.
If you are still using ordinary soap, STOP. You are seriously
compromising the health of your skin. Throw it away and start
using a quality cleanser.
Toning your skin
Toning is the second step in your daily skin care regime. These
days, women often leave this step out and yet it is just as
important as the cleansing of your skin or the moisturizing. It
is a must include step. The one or two minutes it takes are
worth every second if you desire to have healthy, vibrant skin
with a minimum of lines and wrinkles. Don't leave this step out.
You have just spent time cleaning your skin, ridding it of
stale oils, makeup, dead skin cells and other impurities, now
you have to

tone your skin.
A quality cleanser may contain such ingredients as clay. This
helps to remove dead skin cells and other impurities, but may
not rinse off totally. This is why you need to use a quality
toner.
Firstly, it removes every last bit of the cleanser such as the
fine clay particles and other residues from the cleansing
process.
Secondly it will close the skin's pores to protect it from
further loss of moisture, which invariably happens when
cleansing your face.
Thirdly it provides nutrients and restores the pH balance of
your skin.
Now that is worth spending a minute or two, isn't it?
Moisturising your skin
This is the third part of your daily skin care regime and should
also be done morning and night using a day crème in the morning
and a night crème before retiring.
A quality moisturiser protects your facial skin from
environmental damage, provides nutrients for the skin and
prevents loss of moisture, thereby slowing down the aging
process.
In addition, a moisturiser should help to maintain the acid
mantle of your skin, which
is part of your immune system and if
the pH of your skin becomes too acidic or alkaline, the acid
mantel is compromised.
Weekly Regime
To complete your skin care regime, you should set aside a few
minutes once a week, preferably at the weekend to deeply cleanse
and nourish your skin. Your weekly treats should include, the
use of a Facial Mask and Exfoliation.
These treatments encourage cellular repair, step up collagen
production and help strengthen, tone and firm up your skin.
Facial Clay Mask:
Using a clay mask will help to draw toxins from your skin,
whilst moisturising and nourishing the skin at the same time.
There are different clays that will work for specific skin types
and choosing the right products containing the clay that is most
suitable to your skin type is important. There are 3 basic
clays: Green, Yellow and Red.
Exfoliation
Think of Exfoliation from this perspective. Exfoliation removes
dead skin cells, soothes the skin and improves its tone. Dead
skin

cells are the very top layer of your skin. Applying
moisturiser to dead skin cells does not make sense, does it? So
exfoliation, removes the dead skin cells, promotes blood
circulation and helps to invigorate and prepare the skin to more
easily absorb any moisturising product you apply.
Exfoliation also helps speed up the rate of cell turn over.
Another word for exfoliation is scrubbing. Using a facial scrub
at least once a week, makes your skin more receptive to creams
and treatments. However care must be taken not to over
exfoliate.
The aim is to remove any dead cells from the skins surface
without disturbing the healthy cells beneath.
In conclusion, to follow a skin care regime is like taking out
an insurance policy on the health and vitality of your skin. Can
you afford not to follow a complete, daily skin care regime?
