Hi! I'm Anna, a Licensed Esthetician & Certified Massage Therapist with a love for skin care, natural health and the planet. I created Mindful Goddess to help you with healthy skin care & beauty that is both effective and cruelty free. I also will be posting and discussing a lot about animals and my love for them, as well as living a vegan lifestyle. I am not here to judge anyone on the way they live their lives, but will definitely discuss things that can be hard to read, especially when involving animal rights. Bringing awareness is important to make this world a better place. mindfulgoddess@gmail.com

Going Back to Nature

I love how much we are going back to nature and using ingredients that are picked from the earth and not chemically altered. With both food and skin care, it's best to go the organic route and search for fruits and vegetables that are rich in color with a high antioxidant content. You truly are what you eat and it shows on your skin. The face color and texture has more color and livelyness when you're filling up your plate with nutrient rich food. Not only does the healthy food give your skin a boost for a radiant complexion, but you can prevent future skin care problems and damage. By eating food with antioxidants such as blueberries, blackberries, strawberries and plums, you are protecting your cells from free radicals by giving them something to grab onto rather than the healthy collagen in your skin. This is a great gaurd for premature aging, but it's also important to follow up with a topical skin care regiment that is full of antioxidants from nature. I enjoy using Ilike Organic and Eminence Organic Skin Care due to their products being made with fruit pulps that give my skin that extra protection. Juice Beauty also has products that are full of vitamins, juicing ingredients straight from nature to provide an organic treat for your skin. All three of these companies have options to give your skin that topical boost needed for glowing skin and a healthy protection for a youthful appearance. For more information on organic skin care and the importance of staying close to nature, check out this great article from Eminence.
