Excess sugar intake can cause a breakdown of the collagen in our skin cells. This loss of collagen causes sagging skin, as well as the formation of wrinkles adding up to premature aging of the skin. Essential fatty acids like flaxseed and fish oils work on the body at the cell level, fighting inflammatory conditions like acne and eczema, as well as moisturizing dry skin from the inside.

Take ½ cup olive oil, ¾ cup fine sea salt and several drops of your favorite essential oil, like lavender, rose or sandalwood. You can cleanse with your favorite soap after, or prepare for a long soak in the bath with
your organic, homemade moisturizing bath sachet. The olive oil will moisturize your skin, while the sea salts provide a gentle, natural exfoliation, leaving skin looking younger and feeling softer, smoother and sexier
Over-polishing of your nails and the use of nail glues for acrylic nails can both lead to discoloration. A mixture of olive oil, coconut oil, lemon oil and natural vanilla extract makes a sweet smelling oil to rub into the nails and cuticles. While you may have to wait for that posh weekend retreat, with a few simple natural beauty secrets, you can experience the same relaxing, natural beauty results right in your own home.
