Anti Aging – What’s Our Skin Got To Do With It?

What's Our Skin Got to Do With It?

by Jill Taylor

"Got to do with what?" you may ask. The answer is our skin has to do with many things. Our skin is that very important part of our body that covers and protects our internal systems and organs. What would we do without it ?? It is also what the world sees of us – particularly our face, neck and arms.

If your skin is not as healthy and looking as good as it can, are you feeling your best? Most likely, not. So what do you have to do to have your skin looking healthy and good? For starters, you can educate yourself about what it takes to have healthy, beautiful skin. 

Did you know our skin absorbs traces of almost everything that comes into contact with it – both harmful and beneficial?  Our health as well as our beauty and youthfulness are constantly being impacted by what we are using on the skin of our faces and our bodies on a daily basis.

Our skin is like a large sponge. Regarding our skin care and personal care products and the plethora of toxic ingredients that have been added to them, in some cases, these products can have a greater impact on our health than either nutrition or exercise. 

So the question becomes, "What can I do about these toxic ingredients?" You can inform yourself about the purity of the products you are using on your skin and possibly make new choices in what you are using for your skin and your body.

And once you place value in using pure products for your facial and personal care, you can explore choices for nourishing your skin to keep it young, radiant and beautiful. 
 

A top Young Living choice is the A.R.T. Skin Care System.

ART skincare systemThe A.R.T. System provides the following benefits:

  • Combats cellular stress and aging by nourishing and protecting the delicate skin around the eye
  • Delivers a trio of collagen-enhancing ingredients for thicker, fuller, softer skin
  • Generates intense anti-inflammatory activity to help reduce dark circles, diminish bags, and soothe tired, swollen, puffy eyes
  • Utilizes a new natural lipid preservative system

What makes Young Living skin care products so unique and highly effective?

To begin, they all contain therapeutic-grade essential oils, including the oils of myrrh, sandalwood, geranium, rosewood, frankincense, and Roman chamomile. Other important ingredients include MSM, antioxidant herbal extracts and premium pure cold-pressed vegetable oils. Wolfberry seed oil is another premium ingredient in Young Living skin care that makes an important contribution to healthy skin.

According to Dr. Ronald Lawrence, M.D., Ph.D., "The importance of MSM for healthy skin and hair cannot be overemphasized. In my clinical practice, I have seen the difference that MSM makes. It is outstanding whether applied topically or taken as a dietary supplement. I prescribe Young Living's Sulfurzyme supplement for many of my patients. The MSM combined with Ningxia wolfberry in Sulfurzyme create an extraordinarily effective product."

The following testimonials will provide you with further information on what has worked for other people regarding specific skin issues

A.R.T. Skin Care helps with skin irregularities. I have been using ART skin care for several years now. I began because I had very aged looking skin on my upper chest from several serious sunburns– right there in the V of the blouse area. That V looked wrinkled and browned next to the healthy, unburned skin. My Dermatologist said it would always be discolored. 

After using ART skin care for about 3 months, my skin was softer, less wrinkled, and of a smoother color. It blended smoothly with the rest of my skin. Of course my face had fewer wrinkles and the scars of earlier acne were gone. 

My husband had some bumps on his face. Since his mother suffered from skin cancers, I was worried. I have no idea what these irregular bumps were, but after using ART for about 3 months, 3 of the 4 bumps were completely gone and the last one was diminished and much less noticeable.  -Sandy Fox

A.R.T.  Skin Care reversing skin spots.  I've never been one to spend money on skin care, but between hearing the results with this product line and hearing from my doctor I had 4 spots needing laser surgery, I decided to invest in myself this way. I also am not very good about being regular, but I do use it often. My last check up he said, well, just watch them, they don't need removal. I asked if I should schedule a next visit about them, and told me what I was using. This doctor is also a medical intuitive and he said, just keep doing it – it rates a 10 on scale of 1 – 10 for you – 10 being best of course! -Ysha Oakes

Roman Chamomile and geranium for skin breakouts.
Several years ago I had developed cystic acne during a very stressful time of my life. 4-5 years have passed and I've had very little trouble with my skin. However, I was using a skin care line that, while helping the situation, ended up being full of chemicals that I did not want on my skin so I stopped using it. 

I was also pregnant at the time and after stopping the skin care line my skin immediately started to break out and was showing small signs of the cystic acne again. I read in one of the oil books we have that Roman Chamomile and Geranium were good for the skin so I started to apply them (alternating each night) before bed. Immediately my skin cleared up, not only the blemishes, but my skin tone greatly improved and became soft and smooth.  -Aaron Wilson

A.R.T. Skin Care System & frankincense for Actinic Keratosis  For about 5 years my annual dermatology check-ups had revealed several actinic keratosis areas on my face. The Dr. has used the 'localized tissue freezing' approach to eradicate them which it did, but only temporarily. Once I began using the ART Skin System AND applying frankincense NEAT to the specific actinic keratosis areas, the affected areas disappeared and have not come back!  -Bev Haselhorst

Acne and the A.R.T. kit.  I have had acne my whole life. The art skin care has cleared my face better than any face cleaner I have ever used. It is also working well on clearing my scarring. So I recommend the ART kit to all ages.  -Sara Summerfield

Lavender for skin care. I was reading on how lavender oil helps many ailments. One of the common things I read about was skincare. So I dabbed some on an affected boiled acne and the next day waking up – I found my acne shrunk to a small dot and the oil inside was hardened. I find it astounding, it worked faster than putting my miracle neutralizer gel that takes almost a week to get the pimple to shrink to a small dot.  -KC Jung

Removed skin mark on forehead.
My wife had a hard piece of skin approximately one eighth inch in diameter on her forehead and light red brown in color. It was there for about five years and she had tried various ointments and salves to remove it with no luck. We had read that putting frankincense and lavender on skin disorders might work so she started using a drop of each oil on the spot each night for 3 weeks. At the end of the 3 weeks, the skin spot had disappeared and was replaced by a nice light skin toned piece of skin. Those two oils are wonderful.  -George Zuk

A.R.T. skin care is fabulous. The A.R.T. Skin Care products feel fabulous on my skin. without question, these are products for the new millennium. I've been using them for six months, and I can fell and see a huge difference. I am very, very impressed.  -Melissa Brown

Hi Sandi, forgive my delay in replying, I am catching up after some travel. Yes, you are correct it is just for under your eyes, in fact it is best to keep it a fourth of an inch below your eye, as creams can creep up. You may have gotten some in your tear duct which may be causing the inflammation. Were you using any other product besides the Wolfberry Eye Cream and the A.R.T. Skin Care System? Was it the A.R.T. Day Moisturizer or the A.R.T. Night Reconstructor? Did you use the A.R.T. Gentle Foaming Cleanser or the A.R.T. Purifying Toner? In addition to using the Wolfberry Eye Cream just under your eye, you may also have to use one product at a time to learn more.

Hi Jill!

I'm glad I came across your website.  I started using the ART skincare line and I LOVE it!  But I'm having a problem with getting the product out of the bottle.  I noticed that there's no "straw" inside the bottle's pumping mechanism.  Well, my bottle stopped pumping product and i can't figure out how to get it going again!  Can you shed some light on how to get the product to come out of the pump?!

Thanks so much!
