Would You Eat Your Skincare?

When deciding what you are going to eat, or what you are going to feed to your children and family, it is probably fair to say that you consider your dietary requirements. You want to ensure it is tasty & filling but is also healthy and nutritious for you as well right? Well that is exactly what you should be doing with your skincare too! 

It is believed that upto 70% of what you put on your skin is absorbed into your blood stream! We are yet to find a scientific study that backs this claim up 100% but it is a daunting prospect none the less. If indeed our skincare is absorbed into our blood stream, this means it visits your organs and is filtered through your liver and anything nasty or unwanted is then filtered out in your pee! Wonderful. So choosing skincare should be as simple as choosing what to eat! If you wouldn't eat your skincare, why would you put it on your skin?

You want your skincare to smell great and feel lovely when you put it on, just like you want you dinner to smell and taste great. But you also want it to nourish your skin, protect it and make it look wonderful. Just like eating a healthy wholesome meal! Would you purposefully feed your body chemicals that you can't even pronounce if you knew it was in your food? Or allow known carcinogens (cancer causing chemicals) to pass your mouth everyday? If the answer is no, the spa swear should also be the same when it comes to your skincare.

So now I have made you all feel hungry, thinking about tonight's yummy roast, or scrumptious pasta dish or what ever you will be eating, take a minute to check your skincare supply ingredients list and see what you are really feeding your body every day!
