Beauty Tips & Tricks by Lotus Ra-el.
Makeup is a passion of mine, but I know first hand that the true foundation of any make-up is having great skin. Which is why I developed Sage Femme Bad B!tch Beauty, Luxury Skin Care Line. If you don’t spend money on any thing else, you definitely need to invest in quality skincare. Do not wait until you are older, I was told to start in my 20’s and that is exactly what I did. Back in the day there was not really any all natural skincare lines, so I started using Vitamin E after reading about the benefits in one my many beauty and fashion magazines. Turns out they were right about Vitamin E!
Vitamin E oil for skin is highly beneficial. It moisturizes and nourishes your skin. It adds to your glow and makes your skin smooth and healthy. The oil is also known to reduce hyperpigmentation and wrinkles, besides maintaining skin health. Vitamin E is also a powerful antioxidant that may be effective at reducing UV damage in skin. And vitamin E applied topically may help nourish and protect your skin from damage caused by free radicals.
Hydration is the pinnacle of happy skin. When the skin is moisturized, it's bright, supple, firm, and soft. Nothing can repair the skin quite like a good moisturizer. You need a good moisturizer all year round, and every single day or night.
As we age, our body's production of collagen, elastin, and natural oils starts to decrease (that's why it's incredibly important that we continue to modify our skincare routine to meet our skin's changing needs as we age). Over the years, the acid mantle starts to weaken. That's because the skin slows down its production of protective oils that compose the acid mantle, which makes the skin more susceptible maintained moisture loss and damage from environmental stresses. Unfortunately, poor moisture retention and environmental pollutants amplify the signs of aging. When our natural oil production slows down, this decrease in hydration damages our skin's acid mantle.
At any age, it's a good idea to supplement your daily skincare routine with Sage Femme Bad B!tch Serum to support the skin barrier function and maintain youthful, protected, and balanced skin. I also recommend drinking as much water as you can every day will keep your skin hydrated internally, and working at its optimal best.
Another thing I’ve always done is maintained good eating habits. Well at least i have tried. I have been a vegetarian for over 27 years, and I truly believe a plant based diet keeps one not only healthy, but youthful! I do advocate for healthy eating and not everyone can adapt a plant based diet fully, but try to add more vegetables and organic foods to your diet. Even as a vegetarian I was once very overweight. I have loss weight twice by discovering what works best for my blood type, and body type, and adapted my diet to these truths. It works and I have loss significant weight three times in my life. This last time I have loss over 70bls, and I have maintained it for nearly two years now. Try my Diva’s Detox tea as a way to kickstart your health, detox, and weight loss journey. Every purchase includes my meal absolutely free! It has recipes, a shopping list, and other tips, to get you on the right track if losing those extra pounds is your goal for optimal health. I loss weight for health reasons and to have as much longevity as possible, it was not done as a boost for self-esteem. Baby, I was born a diva at birth, and my life will end with me as a diva! My size never dictated that, and yours should not either. So with that being said I wish you all the beauty, luxury, and prosperity, one can ever have!
Love & Light?
