If you have extremely sensitive skin, eczema and dry skin problems with added spots etc, it is always best to go right back to basics before simply replacing current products with new, in the hope that they will sort the problem.
I only discovered this after spending way too much money on various skin care products over a 7 year period, only to find I still had the same skin problems and no clearer idea of how to fix the skin sensitivities, let alone know what was in the products I had used that may be causing the issues. Sound familiar?
It wasnt until I cleared out the lot, including laundry detergents and fabric conditioners, tooth pastes, shampoos, conditioners, ..... long story short, discovered Hemp Seed Oil. I then spent, and continue to spend my time researching Hemp and other botanical ingredients, along with manufacturing what I believe to be the purest truly natural products available currently.
To start the clear out:
Make a list of all the products you use on your skin, toothpastes, clothes detergents etc. Be as honest and extensive as possible. This will provide you with a really good starting point to work from.
The cosmetics industry is a multi billion dollar business, and the choice is endless until you have a clean slate to work from.
This will also save a great deal of money in the long run.
The best skin I have seen in the world does not come from those with lots of money or live in the Western world in super clean environments. It is those who use less, have less, and really understand what they are using because of centuries of knowledge passed down the generations.
Simple skincare from simple ingredients direct from mother nature and unadulterated just as you will find at
Innocent Oils.
Think about What & Why a particular product attracts your attention!
Is it the Packaging hype or is it the ingredients used within?
The only reason creams nowadays have so many ingredients and variations, is not because of the benefits they give the consumer. It boils down to the profits the corporations make from selling more than the next, as each basic cream has to be slightly different from the last to get a customer to buy it over another.
Hense the implied claims and unusual exotic sounding ingredients used, making it sound like a better product than the one next to it.
BUT are the ingredients doing you any good, or even necessary in the product?
Rewind to a time before the Corporations nearly a century ago and look at what was used then and had been used for centuries prior, up to the time when we stopped making our own skin care and started to shop for it instead.
By compiling a list of what you use you will be well on the way to fixing those skin problems without any new products to purchase.
Innocent Oils started with 100% Innocent Hemp Seed Oil for the purpose of being the first and only initial skin care product to use on my skin after the chemical onslaught had be halted.
Using a single oil on the skin as a starting point, makes additions from then on easier without falling into the trap of bombarding the skin with irritating chemicals again.
Innocent Oils now produces a full body care range to keep your skin healthy and toxin free from the moment you decide to rid the chemicals from your cupboards.
