Natural alternatives to the most commonly used toxic skin care and hygiene products.
THREAD🧵
Your skin care and hygiene products that you're using on a regular basis, could be causing more health problems that you might think.
Our skin is a sponge which absorbs anything that we put on it very fast.
Many meds are administered through application on the skin after all.
The things that we put on our skin matter, a lot, and it does not matter if we put these things on our hands, back, face, hair or head in general.
If a liquid or cream touches your skin, it will partly be absorbed by it no matter which the particular surface might be.
This is one of the reasons why women with fancy skin care routines (one of them, not an end all be all) have worse skin than men who do not even have a skin care routine whatsoever even though they also eat healthier a lot of the time.
It’s because our skin has a minimal level
of protection against the things that we put on it and most of these end up in our bloodstream.
So your skin care could be a cause of acne and skin problems in general and a serious one.
Most of the commonly used cosmetic and hygiene products are filled with carcinogens and endocrine disruptors so here are some safe changes that you can give a try.
Moisturizers: Aloe Vera, grass fed tallow, honey balm, raw goat’s butter
Eczema/psoriasis: Activated charcoal paste (1-2 times per week), grass fed beef tallow and raw honey mix, honey balm.
Deodorants: A mix of raw coconut oil and a few drops of lemon juice (you do not need
much, at all), sea water spray, mineral water spray, magnesium roll ons.
Topical acne treatments: Aspirin, zinc, sulfur soap followed by a moisturizer, red light, early morning and late evening sunlight.
Solutions to fade marks and improve wrinkles: Iodine, unpasteurized apple
cider vinegar (make a 1:3 ACV : Filtered water mix, pour it into a spray bottle and use it on your skin for 1-5 minutes) rinse it off and follow with by grass fed tallow moisturizer, aloe vera gel with a few drops of organic lemon, daily jade roller (disinfect it before every use
with iodine, ACV or even alcohol (obviously wash it off before using it), light derma rolling (0.20-0.25mm), potato juice, fermented milk (weird but it works for a lot of people) and topical pineapple (do not leave for more than a couple of minutes) followed by a moisturizer.

Toothpaste: 10 tablespoons of coconut oil, 50 drops of liquid magnesium, 10 drops of trace minerals, some xylitol and calcium powder (not too much, 1 teaspoon tops).

occasionally milk soap, black sea soap, sulfur soap and iodine.

After shave: Ice cubes roll outs, aloe vera.
Hand cleaner: ACV, baking soda, olive oil soap, occasionally iodine.

House cleaning products (use gloves): Hot water, ACV, baking soda, lemon, pure alcohol (wash it off).
Lotions for sunburn: Topical caffeine, egg whites, raw animal fats, cold aloe vera gel, cold raw cream, rub an organic tomato on the area, cold raw goat’s milk.
