Essential oils have been used for thousands of years for their exquisite aromas and natural healing powers. Rich in botanical activity and antioxidants, plant oils encourage radiant, healthy skin, working at a cellular level to keep the complexion soft and looking youthful. By harnessing their therapeutic properties, aromatherapy works to improve our physical, mental and emotional wellbeing.

On Tuesday, August 13th, Nuworld Botanicals held a free seminar at Whole Foods Market Square One where we explored the beauty secrets behind clay and treated our guests to a complimentary Nuworld Botanicals Sun-Dried Mineral Clay Mask application.  

Today, clay and clay-based products are all the rage, but they’re hardly a new phenomenon.  Clay has a long history in skin care. It’s a particularly appealing ingredient in the natural products industry—after all, what could be more natural than clay?

Clays all share similarities on a molecular level and in terms of their healing properties. Their ability to draw toxins, balance the skin, absorb excess oil and moisture, and gently exfoliate make them an ancient remedy with a bright future.

The main benefit of clays is their absorptive property (purification). They tend to draw out impurities, including dirt and excess
oils.

Clays can also help exfoliate in two ways—by pulling dead skin cells away from the top layer of skin and by scrubbing the skin with fine particles. They can also renew skin cells, tighten pores, tone and stimulate blood circulation for healthy, glowing skin.

Clays are made up of different mineral contents and each clay type has a different effect on the skin.  Nuworld Botanicals Sun-Dried Mineral Clay masks are a pre-mixed blend of 100 percent all-natural pure healing clays from Australia and France, enriched with botanical extracts, in powdered form.

Keep in mind you’ll want a mask that is going to fill the needs of your specific skin type and concerns, so obviously someone with acne doesn’t need a hydrating mask because they already have too much oil.  Nuworld Botanicals offers customized mask treatments for dry/mature skin, oily/problematic skin, sensitive/normal skin and all skin types.

There are natural ways to treat acne quickly that don’t require oral medications or chemicals.  Additionally, all of these recommendations will help improve your state of mind and general health, which, ultimately, is the goal.

#1: Keep Your Pores Clean

Keeping your pores clear is important to preventing bacterial overgrowth. Pores get clogged with dead skin and sebum production. Sebum is an oily substance that helps to keep skin healthy when made in normal amounts. Over-production of sebum clogs the pores and creates the perfect environment for bacterial overgrowth.  To keep your pores clean, follow these three rules:

1. Wear oil-free make-up or don’t wear any make-up at all.
2. Wash your face twice a day and never sleep with make-up.
3. Use a natural clay mask regularly to help keep pores open. In the first month, you will need to use a clay face mask daily.  After the acne begins to improve, you can do it every other day. As maintenance, you should use it 1-2 times a week.

#2: Reduce Your Stress

Let’s face it, when you are under stress, all of your good habits go out the window – you eat bad food, you stop exercising, you skip your supplements, and you generally stop taking care of yourself. Having a stress-management program in place before something happens will help you have the resilience to bounce back quickly – mentally, emotionally, and physically. There are several tools like meditation, yoga, exercise, and breathing exercises that will help you keep daily stress under control. Just choose one that resonates with you.

#3: Moisturize with Argan Oil 

Is argan oil good for acne? Yes, of course! This is a natural remedy to put an end to this skin problem. Argan oil benefits are plenty and one of them is for the treatment of skin diseases like acne. Extracted from the nuts of the argan tree, this oil is often recommended for skin care. The reason being vitamin E content that promotes a healthy skin. It is observed that with regular usage of argan oil, the skin starts looking better and better. Apart from vitamin E, argan oil is high in phenolic and carotene compounds that display antioxidant activity. It is also a good source of healthy fats such as omega 3 and omega 6 essential fatty acids. All these nutrients present in argan oil play a crucial role to keep the skin supple and youthful. Hence, its application is often recommended to drive away skin disorders such as acne.  Even skin problems like eczema can be effectively treated with argan oil.
