YOUR SKIN CARE TOOLBOX 101 “COCKTAILS”, ANYONE?

Now that I have your attention, let’s get down to basics! Our skin is our largest organ. It weighs in at approximately 4 pounds and measures 22 square feet. It is made up of cells held together by an abundance of nature’s own oils, otherwise known as lipids. Our skin is our protection against environmental elements and has the amazing ability to heal itself. But, it needs our help to perform these functions, especially as we mature.

As we age, our lipid production is compromised; therefore it is up to us to assist Mother Nature in pumping up the healthful oil content in our complexions. When plant based oils are applied to the skin, they are absorbed directly into the top layers of the epidermis, where they instantly go to work to improve the lipid barrier function, and boost hydration.

Using plant oils and blending them with therapeutic essential oils creates moisturizers and targeted treatments that deliver the most potent form of nutrients directly to the skin. The right combinations of oils targeted for different skincare needs provide powerful properties to normalize oil production, reduce the signs of aging, target complexion woes, and refine the skins texture.

NCN brings three cocktails to the skin care party. Nanci has formulated each one carefully to address specific issues and to support the luminescence and complexion perfection that we are all craving. Which one is right for you?
