5 Ways to Create a Sustainable 

Beauty Regimen

 

1  Drink MORE water.  Water keeps your skin hydrated and supple.  Choose untreated well water when you can.  I highly recommend filtering any treated water with the best system you can afford. 
Hopefully, you have heard about the CDC announcing that fluoride levels are dangerously high in most municipal drinking water.
How much water do you need?
Divide your weight by half.
Add half of that to the total.
The sum is equal to the number of ounces of water you should drink each day.
For example...
If you weigh  140lbs.
Take half of that...70.
Half of 70 is 35.
Add 70 and 35.
105.
This person should drink 105 ounces of water per day. 
 
2  Look in the kitchen.  The most wonderful facials and scrubs are already in your home.  For facials try raw honey, avacado, or aloevera pulp.  For body scrubs try raw honey, salt in oil, or coffee grounds in oil.
 
3  A simple steam.  Boil water, add some herbs or essential oils.  Turn it down to a simmer.  This is important!  A high boil can burn your delicate skin.  Cover your head and pot with a towel.  Be careful not to let the edges of your towel touch the stove!  You can always just turn it off.  It will steam for 15 minutes or so.
 
Give your self a gentle moisturizer.  Try whatever cooking oil you use.  Coconut and grape seed are the best, but I've used olive oil many times.  If you have corn oil or "vegetable" oil, THROW IT OUT! 
I often use aloe for a moisturizer.  It is so healing!  More about Aloe here.
 
5  Get a few minutes of sunshine!  On bare skin.  *Smirk!*

"Hello Tim and family. I'm Doug, husband and father of a family living in Atlanta.  I wanted to thank you for documenting what you're doing. It's inspirational for those of us who want to emulate you to see the pictures and get reports...I wonder if it's possible to ask questions about your situation and get advice to give us a more clear picture of what we're looking at?"
