Complexions aren't really that Complex...

A friend sent me a text today asking what face cleansing products I used...

Avalon Organics, for sensitive skin. Of course these wonderful products are made here in America. Actually, I 'll take this moment to thank my sister for suggesting this regimen years back. Thanks Stephanie.





Now let's take a moment to recognize that cleaning your face with the right organic products will help; however the most important thing to keep in mind is that "what you are putting in your body will affect your complexion."

Years ago when I polluted my body with alcohol while living in LA, my skin sucked! Really, my skin looked horrible and I always wondered why... I tried Pro-Activ and other harsh chemical cleansers and would have clear skin for a few days a month. Then I blamed it on my hormones.

The truth of the matter is when I moved up to Sonoma County and adopted good habits, my skin started to clear up. I ate veggies, drank lots of water. I've cut high-fructose corn syrup out of my diet {Thank you King Of Corn, documentary}... And I stopped drinking alcohol.

Also, always use a biodegradable detergent for your laundry. This way you'll have no harsh chemicals harming your face and you'll be helping keep the waste water chemical free too! The fish will thank you!

Along with using the right skin care products and consuming good for me food, my skin cleared up!



I highly recommend a good diet and using Avalon Organics skin care line.
