I don’t know if you can say, so let me start by saying I’ll give you my impersonation of the best monster of Loch Ness on this photo. Now, let me explain why I covered myself in this gray-green stuff.
My skin was very wobbly in recent months with hormone-buttons and weird patches of dry skin; I usually just felt as if my skin had a more-like quality to the paper to her than usual. I thank you pregnancy for all these beautiful little skin fiascos, which also means that I have to be very careful with what I put on my skin I’m cancelling parabens, endocrine disruptors, and a variety of other things that could potentially make their way to my little fetus and whether or not these concerns have proven themselves It’s not a risk I’m down to take.
At my last visit OBGYN, I asked what I could do to solve skin problems at least. She told me to drink more water, and when I remember that I am to drink as much as I can without throwing up, she understood that I was looking for to make the dramas of dry skin in a way more intense and more realistic.
“Try some natural mud treatments. They don’t usually have curators or retinoids, and that’s what your body can tolerate. I don’t know what mud is made for you, but at least it will be fun to scare your husband. “
Thanks, doc.
So I had to send each derm I’ve ever met (and I met a lot of this writing of beauty career), and just about all of them responded quickly suggesting dead like my best bet sea mud. It turns out that the dead sea is extremely rich in magnesium, sodium, potassium, and loaded with anti-bacterial elements, which are good to clear up the acne spots without hard acids or synthetic chemicals; In addition, the balance of sodium and potassium kind of trap water in the upper layer of the skin, leaving Super plump and hydrated instead of weird papery texture I had known for the past few months.
Quickly, I bought myself a large size bag, jumbo of the most famous mud, dead sea AHAVA and covered my face, neck and chest with her and any kind of hoping for the best. I let them rest on my face, until it was dry and kind of cakey (25 minutes in the heat of my balcony of NYC) and headed for a quick shower.
I think it is important to note that I have use any face washes or SOAP down the mud. A washcloth and warm water were my only tools out mudding and they works perfectly. I didn’t ruin my experience in a scientific way by adding another set of ingredients or products to the mix, so I went purely with the experience of the mud and water.
I’ve emerged from the shower clean and immediately noticed my skin is ultra smooth – like, normal levels not smooth. The papery texture had disappeared, and my forehead is apparently just became a major trough of moisture infused dead sea mud. I was happy but thought I’d give it a few days to see if the results are lasting.
And here, not a single zit five days after mud treatment! In years of pregnancy, it’s like always.
The part of moisture certainly kept for a day or two after as well, but I used my regular day cream with SPF by the next morning, that like hydrated because as it was my skin, I was not willing to risk the rustling, cancer of the skin and/or the sunspots.
The best benefit, however, was that I felt a slight helping hand in energy, which is also says a lot for a girl who is six months along a pregnancy. It turns out that magnesium, which the dead sea products are rich, is more easily absorbed by the skin and women affected by hormonal fluctuations (like pregnant girls or PMS times) are have need more magnesium, the same reason women also tend to crave chocolate things during our periods, because this heavenly substance is rich in magnesium.
While the sea itself may be dead, the mud gave life to my skin, and strangely, I felt more alert and focused for the rest of the day. It certainly is messy, so do not close it your favorite fancy towels, but it is beyond with a value of $16 for the bag of mud that will last several weeks, or even several months.
Extra bonus: you can scare the daylights out of all the children in your home or neighborhood. My children shouted “ZOMBIE!” and ran when they saw me. Win.
