SKIN TYPE #8

Skin type 8 sounds ominous, doesn't it? Don't worry- it's actually the most common when we are lucky enough to grow older. As our bodies change, we may suddenly wake up and wonder just what happened. The skin looks visibly older- wrinkles and fine lines are showing. Maybe some dark spots are showing up here and there, perhaps some broken capillaries as well. Things are sagging a bit and the skin looks dull and depleted. Even the richest moisturizers may seem like they're just sitting on top of the skin.

Is this you? If so, you have "Skin Type 8" and are in need of a boost in cellular turnover - regular exfoliation with AHAs like lactic acid and a manual scrub remove dull, dead skin to reveal younger, brighter skin cells underneath and increase absorption of nutrients. Once all that dead skin is gone, it's time for Mother Nature's herbs to repair some of the damage, build up the health of your skin and even do some of that very satisfying "instant firming" that we all love to see. Yes- plants can do all that!
