Foreue – Natural Skin Care (Handmade & Vegan)

As I have said before, many products that claim to be natural, like natural skin lotion, are really not. Sure they may contain emollients, emulsifiers, and humectants, which can be derived from natural sources, but sometimes they are chemically made(read: not from natural sources).  How do you know the difference? Do your research and read the labels. Here is some information to help you.

Emollients are often found in lotion in skin care products, like natural skin lotion. The difference is that natural emollients are biodegradable and synthetic emollients are not. Natural emollients are found in plant oils (such as avocado or rosehip oils), shea butter, or cocoa butter.

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.

Going vegan is good for you both inside and out. The more natural products you use, the better you’ll feel.  Of course, it never hurts to improve your diet.

Some of the natural food in your kitchen are just as healthy for your complexion as they are for you. Examples include lime juice and tomatoes.

Living the life of a vegan is a good thing, however it does not come without perils. Many of the perils are in the form of misconception: all vegans are granola-crunchers who live in the middle of the woods with a lot of pets(and perhaps a farm). But that could not be further from the truth.  Most vegans are regular people who just want to improve their health and the environment. And while it can be a little bit hard to do, the end result is worthwhile. Here are some more fascinating vegan facts about vegan nutrition and veganism in general.

Dry and cracked lips is a common known issue for many people, especially for those of us who regularly have dry skin issues. While we use lotion and moisturizers for our face and body, our lips require something a bit different. The best way to deal with this is by wearing natural lip balm or vegan lip balm. And while you can buy lip balm almost anywhere, vegan lip balm can be a bit hard to find. So why not make natural lip balm yourself? Here is how:

Adapting to a healthy vegan diet is one of the best things we can do to help the animals, the environment, and humankind.  It’s been said that peace begins on our plates and it’s true.  Violence feeds violence and when we consume those things that are the result of violence, it seeps into our consciousness and touches every aspect of our daily life.  Love and peace are the two most important elements of life on Planet Earth.

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.

So you want to start making your own vegan homemade skin care products, how do you start?  Its not really that hard, just simply do your research on not only actual recipes, but the benefits of certain natural or organic plants. You cannot just take a salad and throw it in the blender and expect to make, let’s say, an exfoiliant scrub. Here are some tips and ideas to get you started in your kitchen beauty lab with homemade skin care products.

One of the most important questions to help you get started is to clear up the difference between  natural, organic, and vegan skin care products.  You can walk into a natural food or beauty shop and find an array of products that claim to be natural, organic, or vegan- it seems that people automatically assume these three things are the same thing, but that is not the case. Read on to find out the difference between these labels.

There are many facets to being a responsible Earth Steward. An Earth Steward is someone who demonstrates complete integrity and mutual respect; self-respect and respect for all beings and creatures of Mother Earth.

Ahimsa, which in ancient Hindu Sanskrit, means “reverence for life,” is an important integral facet of being an Earth Steward; in other words, ahimsa emphasizes compassion.  As a responsible Earth Steward, Ahimsa should be extended to include all beings; two-legged, four-legged, winged, and finned.
