The Secret About Skincare the Beauty Industry Ignores

The skin is the largest organ in the human body, and one of the most sophisticated. Our skin reflects ourselves: the quality of food we eat, the air we breathe, and the water we drink becomes apparent by the quality of the skin's surface.

The proteins, lipids, and minerals in our diet nourish skin cells. Hydration, though, is the most critical factor for healthy skin. Without proper hydration, the skin can dry out and show signs of premature aging.

Our nutrition and skin health are married to each other, they go hand-in-hand. Yet, the skincare industry continues to market products that don't nourish the skin at a cellular level.

50% of the immune cells in your body live in your skin alone, to protect you, so it's imperative to treat the skin cells to make sure your skin is healthy. 

Good skin does not come from the most popular products, or the trending treatment, or the best quality PDRN-OPQRSTUV and whatever the next trend will be.

I want to be very clear when I say this: Good skin comes from using skincare products that your cells recognize and nourishing your body at the cellular level by the quality of foods you eat.

Healthy skin requires strategy, not guessing, not aggression, not damage disguised as regenerative.

Let's take Retinol for example. Retinol speeds up cell turnover in the skin. But, if you have unhealthy skin cells, speeding up the replication of those cells won't magically turn them healthy, you've just replicated more unhealthy skin cells at a faster rate. Let's take Microneedling as another example. Most people schedule microneedling to improve collagen production. Collagen is produced by a cell in the skin. If that cell is unhealthy, do you think you will produce healthy quality collagen? The answer is no. Because you can't injure a skin cell into being healthy.

Skin cells are nourished externally by your diet, and internally by proper circulation, lymphatic drainage to remove toxins, and bio-identical skincare to give your skin cells the nutrition they desperately need.
