Home Remedy Skin Care

It’s all over the media these days - claims that 40 is the new 30.  If you’re not one of those who can afford expensive beauty products, Botox or plastic surgery then you may be skeptical.  But think back to pictures of your grandmother and her sisters.  The only thing that made them look older were bad hair styles and too much hair spray.  But they knew a thing or two about taking care of their skin without spending a lot of money.  They simply used home remedies that can still work for you today.
You probably have never heard of blackstrap molasses.  But I assure you, your grandma has.  Applying this to your skin and keeping it on for half an hour every night after you wash your face recharges your skin and gives it a youthful boost.  Thanks to its vitamin rich ingredients this can help skin after 40 look fresh and radiant.

Prevention is key.  Prevention means all sorts of things.  The idea is to prevent the signs of aging.  To do this naturally there are a couple of steps you can take that are no-brainers.  One is exercise.  A daily brisk walk helps your lymphatic system clear your body of toxins since it uses motion to activate the process.  Exercise also increases oxygen levels to our lower lungs and helps move blood for glowing skin.

Water is also necessary to remove toxins and waste from the body.  You’ll hear it a million times over, that water is key to younger looking skin.  But it’s true.  Case in point - I noticed a dramatic change in a friend of mine who had not yet turned 50.  I couldn’t put my finger on it then I realized she simply looked younger.  When I asked her what she was doing differently to create such an incredible youthfulness in her skin.  She smiled broadly and informed me that she finally started listening to the experts and had replaced all her sodas and coffee with water.  The effect was astounding and it took years off of her appearance.
