Mixing Skin Care Products Can Lead to Confused Skin

by Linda Kaminski, Founder L'Bri Pure n Natural

Hundreds of skin-care products. So many choices. Which products work best?

Todays skin-care consumer is justifiably confused, especially those con- fronting difficult skin issues such as eczema; psoriasis; adult acne; skin rashes; excessively oily, flaky and itchy skin; a  combinationof dry and oily skin areas; rosacea; and even a combination of conditions. Many factors cause the skin to rebel: the environment, diet, medications, hormones, stress, and chemotherapy. Another is the mixing of products from various manufacturers

applying a hodge-podge of products not formulated to work together. Just as it is dangerous to combine home cleaning products, it can be damaging to combine skin care products from a variety of manufacturers.

Due to the extensive amount of skin care products on the market, consumers tend to purchase a mix of products and brands that synergistically dont work together. A typical vanity is stocked with a wide-range of brand names and products. Brand B moisturizer is applied after Brand A cleanser and Brand C anti-aging serum is used in conjunction with Brand D facial masque. One may ask: Is that a problem? The answer is a resounding,

Yes! Mixing brands and products may lead to a form of chemical warfare, and the skin is the victim. A skin-care manufacturer will formulate products within a specific pH balance range, blending ingredients that complement one another for best results. For example, the cleanser has a certain pH level and so does the freshener and moisturizer. The term pH refers to the measurement of the acids and alkali in the skin. The amount of acid in the skin determines the skins resistance to bacteria. However, one company's pH balance range may be quite different from the pH balance range of another manufacturer. One brand may not work in harmony with another brand. Mix and match brands and the result in the long run can be damaging. Skin that becomes off-balance and confused may develop blemishes, allergies, rashes, and any number of other skin conditions. Using products that contain proven healing ingredients such as Aloe can be extremely beneficial to confused skin. Aloe,known as natures pharmacy, provides 75 nutrients, 200 active compounds, 20 essential minerals, 18 amino acids, and 12 vitamins. For those undergoing radiation therapy, Aloe can help ease painful treatment. Be sure to find and use products where Aloe is listed first on the list of ingredients. Clear, smooth, healthy skin is the beginning of a beautiful, youthful look. The basis of healthy, beautiful skin is a regular program of intelligent skin care. Tips for a Life Time of Healthy-Looking Skin: Avoid mixing skin care products.Use a skin care system intendedto work together to maintain theskins natural pH balance. Drink plenty of water. Don't use products containing drying alcohol. Avoid cleansers that suds. Avoid products containingartificial coloring agents,synthetic fragrances, parabens,propylene glycol, waxes, mineraloil, or sodium laurel sulfates. Don't go to bed wearing make- up. Increase fiber intake. Don't smoke. Smokingconstricts blood vessels, causing premature wrinkling. Use natural based products. Don't use soap as a skin cleanser. All skin types, bynature, are on the low pH side,or slightly acidic, measuringabout 6 on the pH scale. One of the greatest enemies to the skins pH balance is soap because soapleaves the skin in an alkalinestate that is receptive to bacteria. Get your beauty sleep. Eight hours is best. Think positive, healing thoughts. The skin is a marvelous organ and responds quickly to kind- ness and care. When you care for your complexion it will do everything naturally possible tobe soft, clear, healthy, and youthful in appearance.

Why L'Bri uses Aloe Barbedensis Miller

Aloe Barbedensis is the most effective aloe to use for human consumption and for external healing properties. Aloe barbedensis is a pharmaceutical grade aloe. Aloe let the healing properties of L’Bri products to penetrate the skin.  Aloe, also, let’s moisture penetrate the skin for moisturizing.

Aloe helps the skin heal it self and rejuvenates itself in record speed.  Watch a burn heal with out aloe and then with aloe.  Aloe in many cases will heal the skin without scaring.

Aloe helps moisturize the skin by sucking in the water and moisture from the air. It will keep the moisture in our skin so it will not dry out. When you use aloe gel and L’Bri skincare products, you skin will have the wonder benefits of aloe for your skin

When you wash your skin, you will notice that it takes a while for the water to seep in. Some people more then others. We would tell my son that he was a duck (jokingly) because it took a lot of rubbing for water to absorb into his hair. Using L’Bri skincare products the aloe is water loving and will help the water absorb more quickly.

Other products, use harsh abrasives to bring water to us and at the same time it strips our skin of it protective coating and over stimulates our cells.  Then we get over active oil glands. 

Other companies use aloe to, the difference with our aloe is we use Aloe Barbendenis Miller and we only use the hand picked, hand filleted parts of the plant. Go here for our story.

Dry baby skin

Why do babies have dry skin?

The1st reason that babies have dry skin is when they are born... nurses whisk the babies away from the moms.
One of the first things the nurses do is wash off the the white waxy film the baby has on from birth.  The white waxy film is called vernix.  Vernix protects the babies skin and keeps it soft and moist.  This vernex should be gently rubbed into the babies skin.

The 2nd reason babies skin dry out is because of the harsh soaps that are used in the hospital and at home.  Detergents in the soaps take away natural oils in the skin.  Newborns do not need daily baths. When you do clean them up they pretty much only need warm water on a soft cloth.

The 3rd reason is the lotions that don't work.  Check your lotions-- do they have mineral oil in them or petroleum jelly? Both of these formulas do not let moisture penetrate the skin.

Babies with dry skin can be helped.

Step 1 Stop washing your baby with soap-   Soap irritates the skin and can be drying

Step 2 Get rid of any lotions that are not working.

Step 3 Find a Natural product that works on healing the skin.

Aloe has very healing properties.  L'Bri carries a product with Aloe Barbadensis Miller in it. This healing aloe does not have any of the green outer leaf to scratch the skin.  L'Bri uses only the filaied  inner part of the aloe plant.

L'Bri has a full 30 day, money back guarantee. If you're not satisfied with how this Aloe Lotion works for your baby, simply return it for a full refund.
