Great Detox Ingredients and Results

December 03, 2019

In our previous posts about detox, we introduced the concept, shared some sure-fire signs that you need to detox, and offered sum solutions to common skincare and health problems that might require detox.

Today, we’re pointing out the ingredients to look for when detoxing skin care:

Activated charcoal
Obsidian clay
Deep sea mud
Salt
Face oils (not creams, oils are better for purging)
Burdock root
Dandelion
Elderberry
Irish moss
Exfoliation
Unscented products (including essential oils)

The best part of detoxing is seeing the results on your skin, which can include:

Clean and clear pores
Glowing with an even tone
Soft and supple feel
Ability to breathe easily and fully absorb products
Even oil production and proper skin functioning
Healthy and vibrant, able to booth expel and receive
More energy
Fewer headaches

Talk with your doctor before doing an internal detox. Fasting, juicing, and starving are not recommended as part of a healthy cleansing. Make sure your overall plan includes healthy foods, plenty of rest, exercise, and downtime. A healthier you is a happier you. A happier you is a skin-glowing you!

Consumers are becoming increasingly aware of and concerned with toxic chemicals in personal care products. We are in need of quality information to help us make informed decisions about our exposure to potentially harmful ingredients in our cosmetics and skincare products.
