6 Tips for
Spectacular Skin

Amp up the antioxidants. Topical antioxidants supplement sunscreen and provide additional protection against skin damage. Look for products with vitamin C and powerful botanical ingredients such as pomegranate, acai and grape seed.

Outsmart the enemy.
When it comes to the signs of premature aging, the sun’s rays are the main culprits. Protect yourself with mineral-based sunscreen with a minimum of 15 SPF for daily use and a higher SPF when you plan to be in the sun.

Exercise moderation. Exfoliation is like exercise for the skin. For best results, avoid highly abrasive physical exfoliants and look for ingredients such as fruit enzymes, alpha hydroxy acid or lactic acid.

Be diligent.
You may be tempted to skip your cleansing routine when you’re feeling sleepy, but night time is the most important time to wash away makeup and environmental pollutants.

Mix it up.
You feed your body a variety of different foods; nourish your skin the same way! In the evening, consider alternating vitamin A serum with a hydrating serum or a nutrient-rich peptide cream.

Treat yourself.
A facial is more than just a luxury—it exfoliates deeply, removes impurities and stimulates a healthy glow. Can’t make it to the spa? Create your own Raw Honey Face Mask. (link to recipe) Or ask a team member to help you select the best at-home mask for your skin type.
