What does beauty mean to you? As related to the
human form (rather then a landscape or an artwork, for example) it’s a really,
really loaded question and hard to answer simplistically. Health with your skin
always gets portrayed as enhancing its natural beauty to become more radiant
and glowing. Companies pick target audiences to sell a new product on the
market for customers to try out that practically promises you the world and
then some.
Do you ever sit and think to yourself, this sounds
fabulous but does it really even work like what they claim? Companies from
around the globe shell out all the tricks in the book, to practically create a
blockbuster film in order to advertise how great something is. Feeling the
heart pounding pressure to give into this company, a lot of people spend a lot
of money on the hot new product of the moment. I like some trends as much as
the next person but what I don’t think is beneficial to the consumer is false
advertising.
The only way around this issue is making sure
you outsmart the companies with your own research on a product you are thinking
of buying. When it comes to your own beauty routine where your skin is
involved, did you know that some people maybe doing their skin care routine all
wrong and not even know it?
Take back the stress of listening to many
people claiming you need a cream for this and that, and realize the less you
use on your skin the more it will thank you in the long run. More exciting
news, it seems another new beauty product to benefit the skin is out. How can
it be trusted and work for you? Before you even think about trying out a new
product on your skin you must know what your skin is like.
Is it sensitive? Where you have to be careful
what you use because it could irritate it? Moderate meaning you could use most
things but you still have to watch what you use? Or is your skin regular,
meaning you can practically use anything and not worry about any reactions.
Knowing these factors can certainly narrow down what will work best for you and
not make your skin worse.
Here are 6 important tips to help you remix
your beauty routine for 2016!
1) Read To Your Heart Is Content
Read the ingredients on the package and see what is
really in your product. If it claims it is “all natural” with zero harsh
ingredients in the formula, you cant always trust what they claim so read till
your heart is content to see if this theory is correct.
Look up these things
and find out what you are really putting on your face! The results may even
shock you! Never put anything with alcohol as part of the formula on your face.
Not only is that bad for you but it can make your skin issues way worse and nobody
wants that.
2) Exam
Test it! Put a small amount of product on one side
of your face or one tiny area. If after a week you see it getting irritated
then it must mean you can’t tolerate this product and should discontinue using
it all together.
3) Reviews Everyone
Read reviews, I know when it comes to something you
are thinking of buying it can be bad to be swayed by a reviewer who might have
had a bad experience with it. You can’t assume this will happen to you the same
way. What is important to understand is some reviews can be helpful while
others are basically rubbish.
You can tell which reviews are from actually
customers and which are just loaded with artificial information that doesn’t
help you out at all. When you out weigh the pros and cons of reviews it is best
to read ones that give very good detailed information of why this product didn’t
work out for them.
Look for keywords like, broke me out, made my skin more
oily, and caused dryness or a burning sensation. When you find these particular
words then you know right away if this is right for you.
4) The Doctor's Here
When all else fails the only way to go is medical! If
you have tried many products on the market but still feel like your skin needs
are not being cared for then it is time for an expert to help you out.
Not all
doctors are created equally, while some may give you milder treatments, others
result in being more direct.
This could translate to taking pills to fix your
skin problems or a cream to soap regimen.
5) Can I Have An Opinion
Get a second opinion, if one doctor you feel
doesn’t have your best interests at heart and just wishes to sell you beauty products,
when you have a serious skin concern try another doctor. You are not creating
drama in the medical and health world if you go to see someone else. It just
means you feel the need to have a second option and this is very important.
Not
all health specialists are forcing you to buy pricy unnecessary merchandise
that can cost you an arm and a leg. Look sir, I didn’t ask for pricy makeup and
creams, I want my skin treated! It is crazy to think that someone would try to
sell you rubbish you don’t need but these people are out in the world and these
products you don’t even know if they work.
What you need is someone who is
properly trained in the field and wants to actually help you. Most doctors will
give you samples to see which products work best for you and advise to try a
sliver amount to see if this foreign substance reacts positively with your
skins natural flora.
6) The Gut Feeling
If it is too good to be true, then it probably is. Don’t
just agree to buy something if you feel inside that you have reservations about
it to begin with.
This feeling can be so strong that it is telling your inner
self not to do something.
I think if a lot more people went with there gut then
they would have a more positive outcome.
The true version
of you will not be embarrassed to go out in public with a fresh face with no
makeup so people will see what you actually look like.
When you are nourishing
the skins natural ph balance you are benefiting your overall health.
Get your
game face on and revitalize your life with a beauty remix routine that will change
what you think about natural beauty.
Is your skin ready for this?
