Wendy Bider of Rock Springs, an Executive District Manager with Arbonne International, is back with a new topic — skin care, aging and…diet?! Yes! Everything we put into our bodies makes a difference to how we look on the outside.  Read on to discover when to best care for your skin and body from the inside-out… Thanks Wendy!

Hands of Time

When should I start thinking about wrinkles, sagging skin, and age spots? To answer your question RIGHT NOW! In fact, you should start the process as soon as your skin hits the outdoors and when you’re choosing what to eat.

Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer, with one in five Americans developing skin cancer at some point in their lifetime. Even though cancer usually doesn’t develop until later in life, skin damage from sun over-exposure builds up over time, and once damage occurs, it can’t be reversed. In fact, experts say the most serious and lasting damage occurs before age 18.

The foods that we put into our bodies can actually damage our skin as well. Putting whole grains, organic foods and plenty of fruits and vegetables in your body can help slow down the aging process.

As you are preparing for your wedding day, you should also take note that if you want to look as good as you do in your twenties, start thinking about your looks in your twenties.

Some products that can help you maintain that soft supple look are sunless tanning sprays and lotions. With the majority of skin damage due to UV rays the smart choice is to go with a botanical spray or lotion that gives you a sun kissed look.

Finding the right skin care products can be a pricy and frustrating battle. You’ll want to look for all natural and chemical free choices. The United States only bans around nine chemicals from the cosmetic industry, whereas European skincare bans over 1,100 different chemicals. Read labels and be a wise consumer for products that you are putting on and in your body. Arbonne (a health and wellness company made in the US and formulated in Switzerland) makes an RE9 anti-aging set that shows an increased change in skin tone within twenty-four hours and has clinically proven results showing its success.

As the wedding custom says…

Something old, something new

Something borrowed, something blue

Put a silver sixpence in her shoe.

Refuse to let your skin be the something old, don’t be blue when you’re past the point of reversing the aging process and put a silver coin in your pocket for good fortune and great skin!
