Try not to cleanse your skin more than twice a day

Try not to cleanse your skin more than twice a day 💦 Doing so can weaken your barrier function, disrupt your microbiome and lead to skin reactions like redness and breakouts. Fall temperatures and fluctuations challenge your skin enough as it is 🍁 If your skin is feeling dry or sensitive, you can also skip your morning cleanse. This is also a good idea if you’re planning to workout later in the day - that way you can cleanse before your shower and finish your morning routine when you’re out 🏃‍♀️ Fall is all about protecting your skin barrier - starting with how often you cleanse!

Did you know that a quality sunscreen can help prevent blackheads? 🤯 This is because well formulated sunscreens contain antioxidants that prevent your skin’s natural oil from oxidizing. When oil oxidizes, it starts to harden and clog the pore while the surface turns black or grey in colour - hence the name “blackhead”. This is the beginning of the acne process 🦠 Another great reason to wear #sunscreenalways

High fat, low carb meals are best for the skin so

High fat, low carb meals are best for the skin so I try to make at least one coconut milk dish per week. Here’s how I made this yummy tilapia green curry 😋 Ingredients:
• 1 green chili, seeded and chopped
• 1 tsp ground coriander
• 1/2 tsp turmeric
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 inch piece of fresh ginger
• 1-2 cloves of fresh garlic
• 3 green onions, chopped
• 2 tbsp + 1 tsp coconut oil
• 1 can coconut milk
• 1 cup filtered water
• Handful of fresh cilantro, chopped
• 1 cup of red lentils
• 1/2 red pepper, diced
• 1 cup broccolini
• 3 tilapia fillets Prep your fish 🐟 Marinate your fillets in coconut milk for 15 minutes. Press filets using both hands to squeeze out the milk and dry well. Add a bit of salt and pepper to each. Add 1 tbsp coconut oil to a hot skillet. Cook fillets for 3-5 minutes on each side depending on thickness. Remove from heat and set aside. Prep your veg + herbs 🌿 In a small blender, add 1 tsp warm coconut oil, green chili, ginger, garlic, turmeric and coriander to make a paste. Dice your red pepper and chop your broccolini into florets. Chop your green onions and cilantro. Start cooking 🥘 Add 1 tbsp of coconut oil to a large wok over medium heat. Cook red peppers, lentils and broccolini for 8-10 minutes until veggies soften. Add spice paste and green onions and cook for 2-3 minutes, until spices are fragrant. Add coconut milk, water and salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and then simmer for about 5 mins. Add fish, cilantro and taste to see if you need to add a bit more salt or pepper. Bon appetit 😋

Combat dryness and irritation this fall by adding

Combat dryness and irritation this fall by adding a facial oil to your skin care routine 🍂 These are my favourite oils for acne-prone skin! Both squalane oil and coconut MCT oil are also fungal acne-safe so they have become my personal go-to 💁🏼‍♀️ Make sure you’re applying your facial oils in the right order. Most oils should be applied after your moisturizer, as the last step in your evening skin care routine... kind of like a top coat to seal in moisture! Which oil is your favourite?

Did you know that there are millions of nerve endi

Did you know that there are millions of nerve endings in lips, which makes them incredibly sensitive to heat, cold, touch etc? Our lips also thin as we age so it’s critical to care for your lips as soon as you notice they are dry. Here’s 3 things you can do to protect and treat dry lips: 1. DRINK MORE WATER 💦 Often, dry lips are a sign that your body is dehydrated. Drink at least one cup of water before grabbing your coffee or tea in the morning to rehydrate your body and relieve your lips. 2. WEAR AN SPF LIP BALM ☀️ During the day, wear @tizoskin Lip Protector SPF 40. The silicones will protect your lips from wind and cold while zinc oxide protects from damaging UV rays. Also, avoid licking your lips! Saliva is very acidic and will irritate your lips over time. 3. APPLY A LIP TREATMENT BEFORE BED 👄 After brushing your teeth and your evening skin care routine, apply a thin layer of @sorellaapothecary Avocado Oil Lip Hydrator. Hyaluronic acid hydrates while avocado and jojoba oils moisturize and repair as you sleep. You’ll wake up with super soft lips!
