Cathy asked:


I have been using Lancome for a long time - and of course, it is pretty pricey. So every now and then I say to myself that I want to spend less on skin care products. And sometimes I hear from some magazines / websites that brand names and drug store brands really don’t have much differences… However, everytime I switch to other brands, such as oil of olay, I break out after a couple of weeks - is this normal?

I’m 40 with Swedish, sensitive skin. I’m concerned about aging.

I’ve been using a skin care system (Pure Simplicity) from Bath & Body works for years but they discontinued it. Now I have the sample pack for Patricia Wexler’s daily skin care. I like it but it is rather expensive.
Any suggestions?

Ashley D asked:


I’ve noticed that most skin care products are used to treat only acne, or only aging/wrinkles. Are there any products that combine both? I tend to have greasy skin, but it dries out VERY easily with certain products. It’s very dry during winter months, but greasier during summer. I also have VERY large pores.
I was looking at “Natural Advantage” skin care line, but don’t know if it’ll be an effective acne treatment? I want HEALTHY, YOUNG looking skin as well as CLEAR skin. Any suggestions?

Anti-aging skin care is effective, especially with natural skin care ingredients that focus on the specific concerns of aging skin. Natural anti-aging skin care recipes offer the nourishment that encourages skin rejuvenation and repair while protecting it from additional damage.

Natural facial rejuvenation recipes work with natural ingredients to reverse aging skin by stimulating skin repair, cell renewal, increasing skin moisture, counteracting free radicals, promoting the production of collagen, and enhancing skin protection.

Skin loses tone and often complexion color changes with age. Metabolism becomes sluggish and circulation slows as people age, causing the skin to lack the nutrients necessary for vibrancy. These changes cause facial skin to dry out and sag due to a loss of elasticity. The skin also becomes less able to heal itself.

Molecules known as free radicals add to the skin’s deterioration. Free radicals contribute to wrinkles, age spots, fine lines, and many other anti aging skin care concerns. Stress, smoking, insufficient diet, pollution, and excessive sun exposure add to the presence of free radicals and aging skin. The antioxidants in natural anti-aging skin care ingredients, along with daily use of sunscreen, neutralize free radicals.

Another anti-aging skin care problem is a decrease in the skin’s production of collagen and elastin. The skin’s firmness, suppleness, and plumpness deteriorate with a decrease of collagen and elastin causing sagging, fine lines, and deep wrinkles.

Insufficient diet, a lack of exercise, extreme alcohol consumption, sleep deficit, excessive sun exposure, smoking, and stress all add to the accelerated formation of wrinkles and the need for anti-aging skin care.

There is a remedy to halt or lessen these skin damaging issues with a natural anti-aging skin care plan including natural rejuvenating facial skin care treatments.

An easy anti-aging skin care rejuvenation plan will encourage healing, stimulate natural anti-aging defenses, add moisture, neutralize free radicals, and promote collagen and elastin production. Natural skin care treatment ingredients containing essential nutrients will help with these anti-aging skin care issues. The following natural treatments can fight the signs of aging.

Antioxidants - These powerful anti-aging skin care fighters help to repair and protect skin from free radical damage. Antioxidants stimulate cells and reduce sun damage.

Astringents - Liquid astringents help to thoroughly cleanse the skin and pull tissues together. This tightens skin, reduces the size of pores, and protects against further damage.

Demulcents - Soothing demulcents work to calm irritated and inflamed skin.

Emollients - Emollients work great to sooth and soften dry and sensitive skin.

Exfoliation - New skin cells grow through exfoliation. With the use of a scrub or a natural acid, exfoliating involves removing the outer layer of skin cells, which stimulates the growth of new skin cells.

Humectants - By holding moisture in the skin, humectants aid the skin in retaining moisture.

Moisturizers - Good natural moisturizers add moisture and help the skin seal in its own natural moisture.

If you take the time for natural anti-aging skin care, you will reap the benefits of healing and protection. Natural skin care recipes offer rejuvenating treatments using natural ingredients that proactively address anti-aging skin care issues.

When you have oily skin, there is nothing more important to looking healthy than good natural skin care. While dry skin needs intense moisture, those who suffer with oily skin are plagued with too much moisture in the form of oil and the problems that come along with it. The good news is that natural oily skin care can solve these problems.

One commonly overlooked advantage of oily skin is that it does not show signs of aging as quickly as dry skin. This is due to the extra moisture provided by the overactive oil glands. Oily skin care strikes a balance between the anti-aging advantages of oily skin and getting rid of excess moisture. Oily skin care will also make your skin radiant.

People with oily skin have to clean their face often and they are usually prone to suffering from acne. Overactive oil glands can lead to acne if you do not practice good oily skin care. Grime and dirt collect quickly on oily skin, blocking pores and promoting the growth of bacteria and the formation of acne.

By removing the excess oil through oily skin care cleansing, you can help prevent acne. Cleanse your skin with a natural cleanser made from natural ingredients and warm water for best results. A homemade natural cleanser can remove dirt and grime and will work miracles on oily skin.

After cleansing with a natural cleanser, rinse your face with warm water and then apply a toner, or astringent, made with natural ingredients from a recipe. A natural toner will get rid of excess oil without disturbing your skin’s pH balance or stripping your face of essential moisture.

Natural oily skin care made with natural ingredients is much better than using harsh products containing chemicals that may irritate your skin. In fact, chemical skin care products can often promote a serious oily skin condition called Seborrhea. In Seborrhea, the oil glands below the surface of the skin over produce oil to compensate for the loss of skin moisture through the use of chemical skin care products that over dry. The top layer shrivels due to the dehydration promoted by the chemical skin care product. It restricts the oil flow from the oil glands, which clogs pores and promotes acne. Natural oily skin care made with recipes using natural ingredients is best for oily skin and will help you avoid the condition of Seborrhea.

Those suffering from oily skin that is also scaly should consider an oily skin care scrub made from natural ingredients. A natural scrub will exfoliate your skin without stripping away necessary moisture.

Another great option for oily skin care is a natural facial mask. Natural clay masks will gently remove excess oil. Apply a natural mask containing natural ingredients from a recipe and then rinse with warm water. Then apply a natural oily skin care moisturizer.

Experiment with natural skin care by making your own oily skin care products at home with recipes and natural ingredients. By doing a little experimenting with different recipes, you will find the natural ingredients that work best for your oily skin. The more you experiment with ingredients and recipes, the better your natural oily skin care.
