How to Get Healthy Skin
Back to basics with the Green Tea Seed Serum
We spend a lot of time here talking about which products will help you achieve clear and glowing skin. We talk about face creams, serums, magical elixirs and exchange notes about which thing can be most effective for which skin concerns. We talk about active ingredients and high efficacy skincare solutions so much so that sometimes we forget about the true key to clear skin.
The skin is your body’s largest organ and a natural reflection of the overall state of your body. If you are sleeping badly, your skin could be dry and flaky without enough rest to regenerate fully. If you are eating poorly, it could make your skin prone to inflammation and acne breakouts. If work is seriously stressing you out, you could see your skin become sensitive and reactionary - a common symptom of a damaged skin barrier.
A peaceful, stress-free, active, and nutritious lifestyle almost guarantees a good complexion, but how many of us can claim to be so #blessed?
What the health am I supposed to do?
The key to healthy skin is ensuring it has enough of the right stuff. The right stuff includes but is not limited to: sleep, hydration, and nutrients. So when our fast-paced lifestyles hold us back, it’s not a crazy idea to give ourselves a helping hand.
Building the right foundation
You’ve heard the old adage: the best defense is a good offense. In the case of skincare, this means taking proactive measures to build and maintain a healthy moisture barrier. A healthy moisture barrier holds moisture well and is resilient against external stressors. It is the base to ensure products like essences or brightening serums have a better opportunity to deliver their maximum potential.
And if you’re looking to start work on a strong and resistant skin barrier, look no further than the Green Tea Seed Serum. This product is a pre-serum which means it’s formulated to be used immediately after cleansing and before toning in terms of skincare steps.
Reading between the lines
The Green Tea Seed Serum is a simple product, but don’t let that fool you into thinking that it’s less effective than that intensive serum you have your eye on. I often compare using the GTSS with ensuring you have enough water in a day. Sure, you don’t need exactly enough to survive, but having it makes a remarkable difference to your ability to truly live. Or in GTSS’s case, it gives your skin what it needs to reach its full potential.
Because the GTSS is formulated with five types of hyaluronic acid and is made with Beauty Green Tea, an ingredient rich in amino acids, it is just the thing to deliver a moisture boost so you can enjoy plump and healthy skin. Joining the moisture party is panthenol which helps your skin hold onto all that water. When your skin is at its full potential, every product you apply next is more able to work its magic.
The heart of the matter
We can lose sight of the forest for the trees when we think of our skincare routine as outcome based. Even I can get caught up in the hunt for the one product to take my skin to the next level.
But, every so often, I’m reminded that it's the simple and steadfast parts of my routine, the ones I take for granted, that are the true cornerstone of my clear skin.
You deserve the best shot you can get.
