Your body surface is home to one of our largest organs and it is call Skin. Your skin helps with a load of things not to mention keeping all our bits in tacked. So why is it important for us to give our skin a helping hand to keep working to its full potential. Our skin breathes, removes impurities, helps regulate our body temperature and is good at helping us to look and feel great. Can you imagine if we all went around without this amazing organ…..Gross!! We would all look like those muscle posters in health clinics with the skin removed. How odd!! And trying to keep all the other organs and stuff in….how funny would that look. Our skin defines us and really does make us all appear different; it is amazing what our skin can really do. We put our skin under a lot of pressure. Females wanting to look their best, men putting their skin through work or lifestyle challenges and children growing, it’s not an easy thing for their skin to go through either. We pluck, wax, tan, sun bake, bake in the solarium, let it go dry, we hit, scratch, burnp it, bruise and cut it. We also colour, stain, tattoo, paint it and even shave, pierce, stretch it and take bits from here & stitch on there and the list could go on…..whether it is meant or not, our skin it goes through a lot. Maintaining our skins health is an extremely important thing to do. Great skin improves the way you feel about yourself and in turn glowing, healthy skin helps to promote well being. It goes without saying that we all will age but how quickly our skin ages can be slowed down if we care for our bodies and our skin. It’s our skin which is one of the most tell tale sign that age is happening. And like they all say in many areas ‘Prevention is so much better than a cure’.
