[A435]All Natural Skin Cream

by Ismael D. Tabije, Ism

The skin protects the soft and sensitive parts of the body from mechanical injury, and from the effects of heat or cold. It has over two million sweat tubes aggregating several miles in length, through which it throws off from ten to fifteen thousand grains of dead matter daily. The under layer of skin is covered with a complete network of blood vessels spreading over a surface of nearly fifteen square feet.

There are also numerous oil glands, which constantly throw off fatty secretions. An active clean, healthy skin is, therefore, a very important factor in the process of eliminating dead and clogging matter, and in greatly aiding the work of the kidneys and lungs. It is essentially one of the principal conditions of health. Having inert and dirty skin increases the labor of the organs mentioned which could cause their malfunctions and decay. Profuse sweating could reduce excess fat and body weight from two up to five pounds in an hour.

A healthy, glowing skin could stand sudden change in the atmosphere. Whereas pale and inert skin would feel a chill that could cause a large amount of blood to be congested to other organs thus the start of diseases like colds and coughs.

It is important to keep the pores free and open. So to eliminate the waste matter and dead cells, it is necessary to frequently wash with soap and warm water. It is important to rub the body with sponge and pumice stones to eliminate those dead cells. This will help unclog the pores and keep the skin clean, healthy and glowing.

While it is true that a cold bath could leave you refreshed and invigorated afterwards, it may not hold true to all cases especially to those with poor health or in advanced years. The effect of cold bath to those people would not be refreshing but it would leave them with lowered nervous energy. Their faces would appear drawn and they would feel exhaustion instead after submerging in a total cold bath. Whereas when they use lukewarm water and the advised scrubbing, they will get the said invigorating effect without the hassle of harming or exhausting their nervous system.

The water should be of about the same temperature as the skin. If it will be too hot, and the bath prolonged, the muscles will relax, and a feeling of lassitude will result. Therefore, my advice to those advanced in years, or in poor health, is to use the tepid bath as the “happy medium." Scrub the body as directed; then have a quick, but total, immersion. This all natural skin care practiced daily will be sufficient to keep the skin in a healthy condition.

The best natural skin care cream is one that contains, plant oils, proteins and vitamins necessary for the skin's health. You won't find the best skin creams in department stores or advertised on television. You'll have to do a little searching to find anything that contains all of these compounds, but it is well worth the effort.

The best natural skin care cream should help slow the signs of aging and conquer dryness, without feeling overly oily or greasy. The skin's layers are composed of chains of amino acid proteins. The body needs protein for many things, and rebuilding skin-cells and fibers is one of them.

Research has shown that if a protein is similar enough to that which is normally found in the skin, it will be used to build new cells. Many products contain keratin, one of those amino acid proteins. But, the best skin creams contain a new compound called Functional Keratin.

It was created through a patented process that allows it to be readily used to build more cells. It may be the best natural skin care cream ever made. The functional ingredient was derived from the wool of Australian sheep, so it won't be found on a supermarket shelf, but you can order it through the internet.

Researchers were amazed when they saw the effect that COQ10 had on the skin's cells. The coenzyme is an antioxidant found all over the human body. But, until recently, we were unaware that the skin's stores are depleted when exposed to the sun.

The best skin creams contain a variety of the antioxidant that can penetrate through many of the skin's layers, replacing that which is lost due to the sun and repairing earlier damage done by the sun. When it comes to the beauty of our faces, sunshine may be our worst enemy, but the use of sun-screens is becoming more and more controversial.

The best natural skin care cream also contains vitamin B-5 which helps repair skin tissue and acts as a moisturizer. But, it also provides protection from sun burn. It relieves existing sunburns and enhances tanning. A light tan protects the deepest of the skin's layers from harmful UV radiation.

Sun screen lotions only provide protection from sunburns and do not protect the lower layers from UV damage. In fact some of the UV rays penetrate more deeply when the screens are used. The safest and best skin creams do not contain a screening element or an SPF rating.

Hyaluronic acid is another of the amino acid proteins needed to create skin-fibers. But, so far, scientists have not found a naturally occurring protein that is compatible. They have however found a type of kelp that can be used to decrease the break down of the protein.

It is called wakame and it is only found in the best natural skin care cream. An extract of the kelp inhibits an enzymatic process that destroys the protein. So, research has shown that with continued use, the levels of the protein naturally rise. So, look for wakame, if you really want the best.
