Foreue – Natural Skin Care (Handmade & Vegan)

Generally acne is considered an adolescent problem. But adults are not immune to acne and other skin infections. There is not a singular cause of adult acne, instead acne is usually caused by a variety of conditions including hormone imbalances, free radicals, clogged pores due to over production of sebum, stress, and even foods that cause acne, along with many other factors. Examples include high Vitamin K intake and synthetic hydrated vegetable oils.

One of the most important ingredients in most natural beauty products and natural beauty cosmetics is something that we use every day. Its also something that we get virtually for free.  It is often considered a natural resource. I am talking about water (H20). Even though a good portion of our bodies contain water, we still need to replenish it. Water is important to drink (at least eight glasses a day), and its also a key ingredient in a lot of natural beauty products.

Many women and men endure skincare challenges. My husband is a good example of what  many can experience when they transition from a strategically annihilating diet (S.A.D.) and unhealthy toxic lifestyle to one that is healthy and organic.

He was raised on a S.A.D. Diet and used mainstream toxic chemically laden personal care products from early childhood until early adulthood. He often felt bad physically and his skin was very vulnerable to acne breakouts and skin blemishes. He had a very rough time and he didn’t know what to use. He was often so desperate for a solution, that he’d resort to using a popular mainstream product, laden with toxic chemicals and advertised as being effective and healthy, and one of the professional skin care products.

Each day as my pre-teen daughter looks into the mirror, she winces at the sight of the acne populating around the tip of her nose. It’s a passage of life, I tell her calmly and sincerely. She winces even more and curses the hormones erupting through her tender skin. As the memories of my teenage years flood to me, I knowingly smile that my daughter is armed with more knowledge and insight about how to better care for her skin than I at her age.
