Call me old fashioned... but I think pesticide should be reserved for lawns. Ok, truly I don't think we should be using it at all. DEFINITELY not on our faces. 1) Non-organic skin care products contain synthetic, man-made chemicals including sodium laurel, mineral oils, laureth sulphate, and toxins that could be residues of pesticides. ... 2) Non-organic products can contain mineral oil, petroleum, parabens, and other chemicals that, with long term use, can cause skin irritation, hormone imbalance, organ toxicity, and even cancer. 3) Certified organic products are derived from plants and other naturally occurring ingredients. The organic ingredients are grown without the use of pesticides, herbicides, synthetic fertilizers, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), and other additives or chemicals. 4) organic skin care products are less likely to cause allergic reactions, inflammations or irritations. If an allergic reaction does occur with the use of organic products, it would most likely be due to a natural ingredient (such as lavender or strawberries), which would be easier to identify. 5)up to 95% of an organic skin care product's contents are active ingredients. In synthetic skin care products, on the other hand, active ingredients only make up 5 to 10% of its contents. Have questions about natural skincare?

Retinol - a chemical derivative of VITAMIN A is the gold-standard in the fight against wrinkles (or just about any other skin problem for that matter, too). It can plump and brighten, fight pigmentation and boost collagen production... BUT it can also be pretty aggravating, especially for sensitive skin. The good news? There's a natural alternative to your beloved Retinol! BAKUCHIOL!

Snatch that stuff out of her hands like you're stealing candy from a baby! Use of St. Ives as a facial exfoliant can lead to long-term skin damage that greatly outweighs any potential benefits the product may provide. St. Ives’ primary exfoliating ingredient is crushed walnut shell, which has jagged edges that cause micro-tears in the skin when used in a scrub.... There are SO many great low-tox, no-tox, or organic options that will give you BETTER results! Not sure where to start? Send me a DM!

It's a great example of marketing. Almost all of our foundations now include SPF. BUT IT'S NOT ENOUGH! You would need to apply over TWO TABLESPOONS of foundation to have for the SPF to be effective!... So what's the solution? Apply your SPF as part of your AM skincare routine. Let it set for 5-10mins, then apply your makeup. Your skin will thank you! xoxo Crystal SHARE this post with someone who needs to see it! #sunscreen #spf30daily #sunlove #SaratogaSprings #SaratogaSpringsny #albanyny #skincaredaily #skinhealth #organicskincarespecialist #organicbeauty #spfeveryday #mineralbasdedspf #sunprotection #troyny #GlensFallsny #naturalskincare #notjustfacials #skinhealthexperts #skinhealthtips #protectyourskin #sundamage #sundamagedskin
