Your skin is an incredibly important organ that’s often overlooked on a daily basis. It stretches and protects you with every step during the day. Take some time out of your schedule to detoxify this largest organ. Get to know the basic steps to skin detox. As you grow older, these routines help you look and feel younger with each session.
1. Start on the Inside
Your skin may be on the outside of your body, but it’s significantly influenced by your daily diet. Before any exterior detoxification can begin, you need to start with the inside. Consider a few changes to your daily routine, including: • Drinking more water • Increasing your fruit and vegetable intake • Selecting organic foods when possible Adding more water to your diet while cutting out sugary drinks allows your skin to hydrate itself from within. You’ll contribute topical ointments as the detox continues. It’s impossible to replace good nutrition as you take on a detox regimen.
2. Brush Away the Skin Cells
Purchase a bristle brush designed for the skin. Use this brush before your shower by sliding it across your body. Direct the motions toward your heart, such as from the ankles to the knees. Brushing your skin exfoliates the surface while stimulating your circulatory system. As more blood flows to your skin, it can repair and heal any issues. Use gentle pressure on the skin as you move the brush. Your skin shouldn’t be irritated by this routine. Stimulate the skin even further by changing the motions of the brush. Long strokes, circles and other shapes are perfect for any skin detox session. Here’s our complete guide on how to exfoliate from head to toe.

3. Moisturize With Essential Oils
After brushing, your skin has a fresh layer of cells exposed to the elements. Don’t enter the shower just yet because you want to enhance these tissues beforehand. Grab some natural beauty products, such as argan oil, to rub on your skin. Liberally apply the oil across your body. It feels slick to the touch at this point. Allow the oil to remain on your skin for at least five minutes. This time period gives the argan oil a chance to absorb deeply into the tissues.
4. Try a Salt Bath
Salts exposed to your body allow the pores to open up and release their toxins. Pores are the entry points into the skin. Use these pathways as a way to remove most of the negative substances from your body. Sprinkle sea salt, Epsom salts and argan oil into a warm bath. Sink into the water for up to 30 minutes. If you try this bath two or three times a week, your skin will constantly fight off toxins because the pores don’t have a chance to harbor impure substances.
5. Cleanse, Mask and Use Chelators
Ideally, choose natural beauty products for all of your skin regimens, such as: • Shower soap • Facial cleansers • Weekly facial masks The listed ingredients should always be understandable and free from any chemical terminology. Select a clay mask for a weekly treatment so that toxins release from your facial features. Incorporate chelators or organic-metal products into your daily moisturizing process too. These products pull heavy metals from your body so that it’s cleansed on a daily basis.
