Fruit salad for the skin!

Fruit and vegetables naturally include many ingredients which are excellent for skin rejuvenation - like any living organism, they have to keep themselves taut and juicy, which is exactly what we want for our skin as it begins to age and/or develop blemishes and spots.

Most of us are aware about the health benefits of fresh fruits or our body. So why not use them on our skins? We know that most of the nutrients and vitamins in fruits lie in their skin and pulp, and just as they are useful to the body, these nutrients can serve to be excellent scrubs or
Re-vitalises for our skin too!

Natural Fruit Facials have been preferred since centuries to get a healthy skin that glows. And that’s why Bodytique has created fruit salad facials as our signature facial so that we can pamper you with an all-natural fruit facial. Bodytique has a number of different fruit facial to suit every ones skins needs. As you know by now there are different skin types and each skin reacts differently to a fruit mask.

So imagine a facial from start to finish using only fruit and vegetables followed by a paraffin layer over the mask to lock in the nutrients. Not only are you looking after your skin and teasing the senses with the invigorating smell that fills the air while the fruit pulp works wonders on your skin!

Our natural fruit facials are as follows:
Please not that all the facial consist of the following – cleans, toner, exfoliate, facial massage, mask and moisturiser.

Wrinkle fighter
Is great for general skin renewal, It helps reduce wrinkles, remove dead skin, and clean your pores.

2. Enzyme work over
Is an active facial which revives the skin and sheds the out layers living the skin plump and revitalised?

3. Thirst quencher

Healthy fruit salad facial to refresh the winter damages.

4. Natures mind

Please not that the facial will vary from time to time
Due to the fruits in season.

So its summer time and there’s nothing better than a
A nourishing facial.

How to keep your skin looking great.

Everyone won’t younger healthy skin, but there are a number of factors that determine this. They included genetic factors, environment, sunlight expose and external factors.

Age is another factor in this processes and ones skin varies from age group to age group. So we put together an action plan for the different age groups on how to maintain ones skin.

20’S:

Your skin has a healthy glow. As we age through into our 20’s our dead cells slowly start to renew less and the shedding becomes less as well.

ACTION PLAN:

· Get into the habit of using a cleanser
· Use a moistures with a high SPF in it daily
· Avoid yo-yo diets –as this leads to saggy skin
· Drink plenty of water
· Get into the habit of exfoliating ones skin twice a week
· Going for a good facial at least every 3months.

30’S:

Skin cell renewal decreases more. Ageing signs start showing.

ACTION PLAN:

· By now you should have a skin care plan – if not ask one of our therapist to help.
· Eating a balanced diet –rich in minerals and vitamins
· Water intake
· Getting enough sleep
· Start using a night cream

See next month for ages – 40 -50’s
