Personal Care

Prevention

During the warm months, many days are spent in outdoor pursuits amidst swarms of buzzing and biting insects. While Balms can soothe an itching or stinging bite, an all-natural Insect Repellant uses essential oils such as peppermint and tea tree, to safely and gently keep bugs at bay. Far more dangerous than insects, however, is ultraviolet radiation from the sun. Whether in the warm or cold months, it’s essential to use some type of sun protection, as harmful UV Rays are present regardless of temperature. The sun’s radiation can cause multiple skin conditions including sunburn, premature aging, and even skin cancer. Instead of treating these conditions, it’s best to use a sunscreen to prevent them.

Hand Soap is also an important part of prevention. The hands touch many things throughout the day, and become a breeding ground for germs and bacteria. If not washed, the hands can transfer these harmful germs into the body and cause illness. It’s very important to ensure that hands are washed regularly, and before every meal.

Skin Care

Even when using proper sun protection the skin still needs maintenance and care. Simply washing or exfoliating is not always enough. To keep the skin from drying out and cracking, Lotion should be applied as part of a daily routine. Lip Balms should also be used to keep the lips from becoming dry or painfully chapped.

Sweating is a natural occurrence, although it can cause unpleasant body odors and embarrassment. An all-natural Deodorant can be used to prevent this embarrassing odor without using harsh chemicals that can damage the skin. When the body does sweat, however, body wash or Hand Soap can remove the sweat left behind that could potential clog pores and cause skin irritation.

The skin is an important part of overall health, and should not be neglected. Various skin conditions, rashes, and irritations can be prevented or treated with the materials found in nature. Whether looking for an Insect Repellant or a nourishing body cream, Nutra Source has all necessities for proper skin care.
