1.What is Outer Nutrition?

Science has discovered that many of the same nutrients and botanicals that support good health when taken internally can also enhance appearance and well-being when used externally. Giving your skin vital nutrients, adequate hydration, rest and relaxation are all essential factors for a healthy skin. However personalising your skincare routine with healthy nutrients helps your skin look its best, because often if your skin looks good, you feel good!

‘Outer Nutrition’ is Nutrition for Skin and not make-up, chemical bleaches or peels.

2.What is the important role of Skin?

The skin is the largest organ of your body and it’s made up of two main layers; the epidermis and the dermis. The epidermis is the outer layer of the skin and it’s tough, waterproof and protective. The dermis, or inner layer, is thicker than the epidermis and gives the skin strength and elasticity.

One of the most important roles of the skin is as a protective barrier against exposure to the elements and environmental pollutants. It’s important that you nourish and support your skin in this protective role, whether you are male or female.

3.Why do I need basic Skin care?

The skin constantly protects the human body from infections and other sickness. Yet at the same time, the skin is the most vulnerable organ in the body because it is exposed to pollution like cigarette smoke, specifically to the carbon monoxide emitted by vehicles and also such as nitrogen dioxide and sulfur. Outdoor pollutants are detrimental because they increase the number of free radicals in our environment. Free radicals can damage cells over time by encouraging oxidation.

The skin may also be exposed to the sun's ultraviolet rays. According to the National Institute on Aging, "The main cause of skin cancer is the sun."

Indoor pollutants can also cause dry skin and irritation. Overall pollution can be responsible for skin dryness, dullness, clogged pores, some allergic reactions, skin irritations, inflammation and premature aging.

Your skin is one of the most vital structures of the human body and it acts as shield between the internal and external and you replace and regenerate it every day. Taking care of it daily helps you protect the skin's delicate moisture balance to keep you healthy-looking.

4.What is part of basic Skin care?

The basic of good skin care are Cleansing, Toning and Moisturizing, in that order twice a day morning and night.

Never leave your skin dry after cleansing your face. A gentle Toner should be used to tone up the skin followed by a Moisturizer as per your skin type to moisturize and protect your skin - this would complete a daily cleaning routine.

Remember your skin need to breathe and look as natural; as possible. So reduce the amount of makeup and let your skin breathe daily.

Use skincare products that are rich in antioxidant vitamins and are not loaded with chemicals that can be harsh on your skin. Always prefer sulphate free, paraben free and non alcohol based products.

More and more cosmetics and skin care products in current days include the words essential, natural, bio, botanical, and herbal in their product name or description connoting that the product is made from herbs or plants. Often times, however, the label is looked at and things like Octisalate, Octinoxate, Lyphazomes, Oxybenzone, are seen and it's hard to believe it is a natural product. Some of them are partial where as some are completely made from botanical extracts. So be conscious to check the labels and understand product well before you apply it.

5.Is it harmful to use chemical bleaches?

Using chemical bleaches for whitening and bleaching skin can cause harm to your skin in the long run. Therefore, it is essential to use natural remedies for having clean and flawless skin.

Although skin bleaching or whitening could be a good option for getting rid of dark spots or skin discolouration, the process is not free from side effects. Some of the products are rather very harmful and cause skin cancer too. Therefore, it is very important you find out the side effects of skin bleaching before you opt for the whitening of your skin.
