A lot of men in women in the world suffer with skin issues that medically are pushed aside by doctors for being only cosmetic issues. It is an unfortunate situation for someone who has a problem to be disregarded and be told that their issue is unimportant or superficial. I myself am and was one of those people. Well meaning doctors and friends put aside my worry about something that I was genetically predisposed to. But does that mean that I must live with it and that it doesn't matter? No, I don't think so. Because situations that are cosmetically troubling can lead to illness and debilitating health issues. If a person is unhappy longterm it is considered depression and depression as we all know can lead to various health issues. I'm not going to spend all my time giving the logistics of what causes what because I trust that you will be responsible enough to do your research. And that means not just relying on the internet but actually opening a book. I do not promise to offer a cure. Only a regiment that followed daily can relieve many of their issues. I stress that many of these issues are genetic so being predisposed if you cease, more than likely your problem will return. I stress that everyone consult with their doctors before and during any treatment is started because your health issues may or may not require not using certain things within my regiment.
First off you have to work from the inside and ensure your skin is getting the necessary nutrients: Flaxseed oil - take as directed on the bottle ( Mines requires three times a day). It important to supplement your system with Omega 3's, 6's, and 9's (the average American's diet has plenty of Omega 6. Also you need vitamins A and D but you want it as a natural source- Cod Liver Oil it also supply's you extra Omega 3's you would want to consume the recommended dosage with ghee or butter so your body can absorb it. You should also get a b vitamin complex if you are not taking a multivitamin already. To help your skin cope with the changes biotin is recommended. My bottle says I can take it up to 1-5x a day - I only take it once a day.
It is important to drink plenty of fresh water and in addition to your recommended (you are drinking at LEAST 8 glasses, right?) .
Now that we've covered the internal you want to ensure proper exfoliation and moisturizing. You will want to dry brush before you bath. Not only does it stimulate lympatic drainage. Dry exfoliation removes dead skin that becomes harder to exfoliate when the skin plumps up from wet exfoliation. In the tub I like to bath in milk. You'll be saving water and treating your skin if you get a large bucket, bowl, whatever to fill up with warm water and add powdered milk to. The lactic acid aids your skin in exfoliating and healing old scars so as primitive as it sounds its effective and its cheap. For those who still want to scrub youll want to create two seperate scrubs that you can alternate ever other day. The milder scrub is simply epsom salt and oil (your preference of oil) . The second scrub will consist of sugar, sea salt, epsom salt, baking soda, glycerin and oil. Glycerin helps draw moisture and affects your cell structure to help skin cells mature properly. Word of wisdom-- Dont scrub hard it will not give you faster or better results, you will bruise your skin and exccerbate your problem. You can after exfoliating wash with the soap of your choice. I use Dr. Bronner's Castille Soap. After you shower you will want to tone your skin, a mixture of apple cider vinegar and water or rose water
