Tips For Healthy Skin
Alarm bells? If you want healthy skin, think about it for a moment. You put clothes on a Hills Hoist in the backyard, to dry out. Also, you may turn your heat lamps on in the bathroom when you're out of the shower, dripping wet to dry out. You leave your bathers, or swimmers, togs, budgie smugglers in the sun after a day at the beach, again, to dry out! So imagine what happens to healthy skin when it is subjected to the environment on a daily basis, particularly the face, 24/7? I don't think you need to be a rocket scientist to realise it's going to become dry.
Your environment plays a huge role in the health of your skin. Despite needing to use a heater in winter or an air conditioner in summer, for instance, there are still ways to ensure optimum skin health, with topical products like our Olive Skin Serum.
