Take care of yourself, the most important thing is you
Hi how's everything!! I hope that you and all of your loved ones are well and looking forward to having plans for this weekend.
I tell you…
On a day-to-day basis we live very fast, between work, family, going from here to there, with traffic, noise, smoke... 🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️
There are many things against it, but wait, we are going to tell you how.
TURN THE OMELET OVER!
And sometimes we don't have time to sit at the table to eat, go to the gym or just have a little time for ourselves.
And we know that stress, pollution, poor diet, a sedentary life, all of this influences our body and our mind. 🙇♀️
That's why from time to time we have to say STOP!⛔
Allow ourselves the luxury of stopping, having some time for ourselves, to take care of ourselves.
At the end of the day, we are the most important thing we have and sometimes we take care of everything else so much that we leave ourselves in the background.
So at Natvral Lavde we tell you:
💚TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF, TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF, because the most important thing is you.💚
And although some of us have even forgotten what that was like and we don't even know where to start, we are going to give the…

4 POSITIVE INGREDIENTS IN YOUR LIFE and in your cosmetics
We have already talked about enemies so now it's time to talk about GOOD FRIENDS,🙋🙅🙆
those who take care of us and accompany us in our daily lives.
Surely you had already heard about some of them but maybe you didn't know some
DIFFERENCES THAT MAKE THE CHANGE. For example:
-
HYALURONIC ACID (be careful, the vegetable) 🌿🌾 vs 🐓🦈
Surely you didn't know that most cosmetics use hyaluronic acid of animal origin, and that this comes from parts such as rooster combs or shark fins, what do you think?
Vegetable hyaluronic acid from wheat and corn seeds is used in vegan cosmetics. The particles obtained from vegan hyaluronic acid are smaller than those of animal origin, which makes it easier for our skin follicles to assimilate and have more effective and faster results.
YOU FIND IT ON THE LABELS OF YOUR COSMETIC SUCH AS: Hyaluronic Acid, Sodium Hyaluronate, Hydrolized Hyaluronate. To know that they are of plant origin, look for the VEGAN certification seal.
-
NIACINAMIDE

YOU FIND IT ON THE LABELS OF YOUR COSMETIC SUCH AS: Niacinamide

PROBIOTICS (the microscopic treasure)
We don't see them, but they are there:
Millions of good bacteria live on the skin and if we do not have them our health worsens, causing infections, inflammations, dermatitis, allergic reactions, etc. This is where probiotics come into action, extracted from algae, whose properties are extraordinarily beneficial for the health of our skin. They help keep it in balance and resistance. An excellent ally to calm and repair the skin from within.
YOU FIND IT ON THE LABELS OF YOUR COSMETICS SUCH AS: Bacilus Ferment, Lactococcus Ferment Lysate, Pseudoalteromonas Ferment Lysate.
-
CORNFLOWER FLOWER
It acts as the skin's most powerful protective barrier in addition to offering antibiotic, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Improves circulation of capillaries.
