Prevent Wrinkles and Reverse Aging

Wrinkles form when the skin loses its elasticity. As long as the skin is supple, any creasing of the skin disappears as soon as you stop making the expression that caused it. Over time these lines deepen into wrinkles. Some wrinkling is inevitable, as a result of aging. The first line of wrinkles usually appear in the delicate tissue around the eyes-smile lines or "crow's feet." The cheeks and lips are next. As we age, our skin becomes both thinner and dryer, both of which contribute to the formation of wrinkles. Other factors include diet and nutrition, muscle tone, stress, proper skin care, exposure to environmental pollutants, and lifestyle habits such as smoking. Heredity also plays a role.

The most important factor of all is sun exposure, which not only dries out the skin but also leads to the generation of free radicals that can damage skin cells. It is estimated that as much as 90% of what we think of as signs of age are actually signs of overexposure. Overexposure is more than sunbathing or sunburn, approximately 70% of sun damage is incurred with everyday activities as driving and walking to and from your car. The sun effects are cumulative.

RECOMMENDATIONS

Eat a well-balanced diet that includes many and varied fruits and vegetables, preferably raw to provide the nutrients your skin needs. Also eat whole grains, seeds, nuts, and legumes.
Drink at least 2 quarts of water each day.

Obtain fatty acids from cold-pressed vegetable oils. Avoid saturated and animal fats.
Do not smoke and avoid alcohol and caffeine. These substances dry out the skin, making it more vulnerable to wrinkling.

Regardless of age or skin type, protect yourself from the sun.. Always apply a sunscreen with a SPF of at least 15. Sun exposure is the single greatest source of skin damage.

Get regular exercise. This increases the circulation of blood to the skin.
Exercise your face. Sit in a chair and extend your jaw in an exaggerated chewing motion. Laying on a slant board for fifteen minutes a day is also good.
Avoid alcohol-based toning products. Use witch hazel or an herbal/floral water instead.

Avoid using harsh soaps or solid cleansing creams such as cold cream on your face. Use natural oils such as avocado oil instead to remove dirt and old makeup. Apply it gently and rinse it off with warm water.

Do not share your cosmetics, and replace them every three months.
Be careful in selecting skin care products. Seek products containing natural ingredients, and avoid those that contain petrolatum, mineral oil, or any hydrogenated oils.

To add color to sallow skin-mash ½ cups of strawberries in a blender and apply for 10 minutes, then rinse with tepid water.
To alleviate puffiness in the eye area, place cool cucumber slices for 10 minutes or more.

To cleanse the pores, rub mashed tomato over your face.
To help protect your skin from free radical damage-add a few drops of green tea extract to your lotions, astringents, and other beauty products.
To moisturize your skin, mash together grapes with enough honey to make a paste, and apply the mixture to your face as a mask. Leave for20-30 minutes while you relax, then rinse it off.

To remove dead surface skin cells, gently rub a small handful of dry short-grained rice against your face for a few minutes.
To soften and nourish the skin, mash half of an avocado and apply to your face. Leave it on until it dries, and then rinse off with warm water.
To tighten and refine pores, whip up the white of an egg off with a pinch of alum and apply to your face as a mask for 15-20 minutes before rinsing with lukewarm water.

Description

Acne, black heads, unsightly skin? Never fear, black soap is here! Can't imagine bubbling up in a soap as black as tar? Well, so were many of our spa owners and beauty magazine editors, but now they live by this ancient remedy for amazingly beautiful skin. Shea Terra's Indigenous Black soap Elixir evens skin tone, dries out and prevents acne, speeds up healing of open wounds, diminishes razor bumps, and dissolves the "glue" that holds on dead skin cells.Modern "miracle" cosmeceuticals make promising claims that most often turn out dissapointing. And often, when they do deliver results, the chemicals they are made from can have devastating long term effects. Not so with centuries old Indigenous Black Soap. Created in Africa from indigenous plants, natives have been successfully treating difficult skin ailments before the onslaught of modern cosmeceuticals.Beware of inferior and immitation black soaps. Due to the popularity of black soap some companies have added dye to make their soaps appear original. Some black soaps, due to improper formulations can cause harsh skin reactions. Shea Terra Organics has been offering black soap products from master soap makers of the Yoruba tribe for almost a decade. Our soap is gentle yet highly effective.Who are the Yoruba? The Yoruba of West Africa is a tribe of people descended from Egypt. They have been known throughout history for their highly developed form of medicine, similar to ayurveda of India, much of which they brought with them from Egypt.100% natural. size: 8 oz.

Description

Our soaps are made the old-fashioned way. They are hand-crafted using natural ingredients and include pure essential oils and organic botanicals. Known as Castile soap, our base is one of the gentlest and moisturizing of all soaps. We employ the "cold processing" method and do not add heat or chemicals to the soap pots. This process produces a bar full of natural glycerin, which is a by-product of the soap making process. Unlike most soaps on the market today, we do not remove this glycerin from our soap because it is a humectant, which helps attract moisture to the skin and can be gentle enough for even the driest and most sensitive of skin. Additionally, we do not add preservatives, colorants or fragrance oils to our products. Our soap is made with your skins well-being in mind - no harmful synthetics, just pure ingredients from nature

Features

  • Pure and Natural, Nothing Synthetic
  • Lemongrass is enriched with organic calendula and chamomile extract for silky, healing suds
  • It not only smells fresh but deep cleans, tones and revitalizes the skin.
  • Excellent for oily or acne skin and a great soap for the kitchen. Gentle enough for all skin types.
  • Another great product from Plantlife. Click on the "Other products by Plantlife" link at the top of this page to view full product range.
