You Are What You Eat

Healthy skin begins with what you put in your body, and eating natural and organic food gives you a dermatological edge. You need to treat your skin from the inside out. Here are some organic skin care solutions for you:

• Eat a healthful diet of organic food. This includes at least five servings of organic fruits and vegetables each day.
• Skin needs to be properly hydrated, so drink plenty of water -- particularly when the weather is warm and you perspire more. Drink a minimum of eight glasses of water per day.
• Minimize your consumption of caffeinated beverages.
• Limit alcohol intake.

Organic living also contributes to great skin:

• Get regular exercise.
• Be sure to get enough sleep each night.
• Practice meditation, yoga or another discipline to reduce stress. If you continue to struggle with life's stressors, see your physician or a trained counselor.
• Always wear sunscreen to prevent sunburns and skin cancer.

Finding the Right Organic Product

Organic skin care has come a long way over the last decade, with a wide array of products for every skin type: dry, normal or oily. It's important to determine your skin type before going shopping:

• Normal skin has a smooth texture, with an even tone. Pores are virtually invisible, and you don't suffer breakouts. Even if your skin is normal, it requires basic maintenance.
• Dry skin may be scaly, flaky or red. Skin is dehydrated because oil glands fail to produce enough sebum. You may be at the age when fine lines and wrinkles begin to appear. Dry skin requires regular hydration and moisturizing.
• With oily skin, you're always battling shine and breakouts -- particularly in the "T-Zone" of your face (forehead, nose and chin). Pores become clogged, making them noticeably larger.

You may have oily facial skin, but dry arms and legs, so be sure to shop for the right organic skin care products to treat specific areas. Some of the best nontoxic, chemical-free organic brands include:
