Organic castor oil - hero ingredient in All you need is me balm

Why we added organic castor oil in our multi-tasking balm All you need is me - 🌟

Castor oil provides so many benefits for our skin. Castor oil nourishes parched cracked skin, soothes red and inflamed skin. It makes skin soft and smooth for hours due to the content of moisturizing fatty acids . The fatty acids may also encourage the growth of healthy skin tissue.The versatile ingredient castor oil has antibacterial properties and antioxidants. The texture of All you need is me balm is a bit oily and sticky (like vaseline or 8 hour cream but organic and without petroleum/mineral oil) During the winter when my face sometimes gets really dry, I use it as an overnight mask on my face. The ingredients lets your skin breathe, so All you need is me balm won’t make your skin break out if you have acne prone skin .

The lymphatic system and skin health

When your lymphatic system is stagnant, it can show up on your skin. The lymphatic system assists with the expelling of toxins. It lies just beneath your skin. If it is not working as it should or clogged, your skin may suffer from acne, loss of elasticity, premature aging and other skin conditions. The lower body gets a head start in the morning as we get up to walk around and move. To get the circulation going for the upper body try this: clasp your hands behind your head so your elbows stick out. Now in a pumping motion put the elbows together in front of you for a count of 30-50 times. Other ways you can kickstart the system is to dry brush your skin and jump on a trampoline or maybe doing the chicken dance 😉

Why use a serum

Maybe you are doing all the right things: cleansing, exfoliating, masking, moisturizing and spf’ing and your skin is still not glowing. A serum could be exactly what your skin needs. Serums are thinner than traditional moisturizers and contain higher concentrations of active ingredients. They absorb quickly, are soothing and nourishing for sensitive skin, hydrate skin, prevent scars and blemishes, minimize breakouts, protect your skin from free radicals, boost collagen and the ingredients in Face it serum are all anti inflammatory.
Start with Sea me mask and make sure you leave your skin damp after washing off the mask, so the serum can be absorbed deeply into your skin. Follow with a moisturizer like Make my day cream to seal in the serum. Our award winning Face it serum is high performing with pure organic oils.

Ps. right now we have a 50% discount on Sea me mask for a limited time

Chlorella mask Sea me mask for healthy skin

We love to use face masks because they allow ingredients to penetrate into the skin in a short amount of time. It also reminds us of taking a little break in our busy day,  and who does not need that?  A face mask can deliver a more concentrated dose and more intense version than a moisturizer which is often water based. Sea me mask is based on aloe vera and chlorella, giving skin an extra boost. It can help refine skin pores for clearer skin, increase hydration, diminish fine lines, even skin tone and firm skin. Chlorella contains a nutrient called chlorella growth factor, this nutrient can help promote rapid tissue repair and cellular renewal. A great way to get healthy, bright looking skin.

Chlorella restores the production of skin’s collagen, calms unwanted redness, fights Inflammation and permanent sun damage. With these fantastic antioxidant properties, I don’t limit the benefits to my face. Sea me mask is equally beneficial as a scalp and hair mask.  You may look like a green monster for a few minutes when you have applied the mask (great to scare your family😆) But when you wash it off, you will shine 🤩

Glowing healthy skin naturally

Glowing healthy skin is not an overnight miracle.
It’s easy thinking that piling on all the makeup products in the world will help. To achieve natural radiance that makes your skin look healthy and flawless we need to treat our skin at its core and adopt good habits.

Always remove your makeup. Leaving it on clogs the pores which may cause blemishes. Your skin needs to breathe while it’s in repair mode. Double cleanse.

Apply sunscreen also in the winter that blocks UVA and UVB rays. A longtime exposure to the sun can cause wrinkles, age spots and more serious skin problems.

Eat fruits, vegetables, greens, protein and vitamins. Cut down on sugar

Exercise regularly to stimulate your blood circulation. If you don’t have time with anything else, take a brisk walk around the block. Notice the glow on your face.

Try to get at least 8 hours sleep

Make time for “me time” and try to avoid stress. Ever notice that you tend to break out more when you are stressed?

Drink water

Do a facial massage when you apply your cream. I mix Make my day cream with Face it serum. Making sure not to pull the skin.

Use gentle skincare products.

Use a face mask like Sea me mask twice a week. It really gives you a noticeable glow and is a true Cinderella mask. Packed with organic ingredients, chlorella and antioxidants that will really make a difference to your skin.

Remember beautiful skin is not a sprint it’s a marathon.
