Love the skin you're in

Your skin is the largest organ of your body, made up of millions of cells & enzymes working tirelessly day in & out to protect; to control body heat; to alert you to sensations of cold/ heat/ pain. It produces sweat & oil, & even forms pigmentation to protect the deeper skin cells.

Your skin can only do all of this if it is cared for & “loved”. Remember we are only ever given one!

Use a quality body wash, exfoliant & moisturizer for your body. Have a good daily skin care routine that includes a sunscreen, a weekly exfoliation & masque for your face, neck & decolletage.

A healthy skin is slightly acidic to protect against bacteria, with loads of healthy collagen & “bounce”, even colour, soft & dewy (like a baby’s skin).Then along come the skins’ enemies… sun, pollution, wrong cosmetic products, poor diet & lifestyle.

The sun is responsible for pigmentation and breakdown of collagen, causing sagging, premature ageing, uneven skin tones & loss of natural moisture. Sun causes skin cancers which are skin cells severely traumatized. When a cell is damaged it is damaged right to its DNA, unable to function effectively.

Pollution attaches to the skins surface cells causing loss of natural moisture contributing to blockages in the pores, fine crinkles & wrinkles

Wrong cosmetic products strip the natural acid mantle from the skin making it rough, dry & uneven, lined, pigmented through increased sensitivity to the sun & may even cause blockages. In short the wrong products CREATE skin problems rather than nurturing & maintaining.

Foundations usually contain isopropyl myristate that is known to clog the skin, so ditch them! Switch to our new DMKC foundation… Simply the best foundation in existence! DKMC has 25 different shades giving you an absolute colour match, is waterproof & lasts all day (no more annoying touch-ups). Competitively priced with no wastage it will last for months.

Poor diet attacks the body from within, as “we are what we eat”. Natural organic foods are of course the best possible foods. The average diet doesn’t have the correct balance of Essential Fatty Acids, & cooking our food depletes them, so a supplement is essential. Our lack of Essential Fatty Acids manifests in so many ways & many conditions are improved incredibly by correcting this imbalance. The best source is Evening Primrose Oil & we have the purest form available in the DMK EFA+. It contains a perfect balance of Omega 3, 6, 7&9. Evening Primrose Oil is a better choice than Fish Oil or Flaxseed Oil. I will enlarge on this topic in a future article.

A poor diet also upsets the natural balance of the digestive system which then prevents the absorption of any nutrients that are in your food. A diet of junk food, coffee, soft drinks, pastries, wheat & dairy is not sustaining your body or your skin. “Junk” food is literally “junk you are feeding your body”… which reflects throughout your body contributing to Acne, Rosacea, clogged pores, pigmented, uneven, rough, dull, sagging skin.
