Episode 19: This Product Take Skincare & Repair To A New Level

Join us as we discuss Alitura Skincare with Andy Hnilo.

 

As you’ll learn in the episode, Andy came to skincare by way of a nearly fatal accident that left him scarred all over. His commitment to healing landed him in the world of healing skin care products. He shares insight about some of the best ingredients for healing scars, keeping the skin hydrated and protected. He talks about the challenges with skincare products on the shelves today and why it’s important to find products that help the body, not overload it with harsh chemicals and filler ingredients.

Kiran shares a bit about the skin microbiome and Andy brings the conversation to a close with an important reminder that our skin is our largest organ and therefore worth investing in.

 

 

Episode Takeaways:

 

 

Alitura sources completely natural, from the earth ingredients like:

Pollen Honey beeswax Botanicals Cacao butter Aloe Copper peptide etc.

 

Problem with Ingredients:

Today, there are thousands of poorly made products on the market that are fast and cheap to make. WIth a little bit of clever marketing, some of the most well-known products find their way into our homes and they just aren’t serving us.  Ingredients like glycerin, alcohol, chemicals that are hard to pronounce, and preservatives are junking up our pores and our livers. The skin absorbs what we put on it and has to find a way to filter those ingredients 

 

What we put on our bodies is just as important as what we put in our bodies

The skin is the largest organ  What you put on the skin gets absorbed Fragrance - “Natural fragrance” is a marketing term that doesn’t mean anything Nail polish Makeup Hair products Lotion Dyes

 

The skin is one of the most shared microbiomes 

95% of dust is human skin cells When you put all these chemicals on your skin - they dramatically impact the microbes on your skin. That leaves room for the growth of opportunistic bacteria 

 

Andy’s skincare routine:

Cold morning shower Cleanse Steam up the face Derma Roller the gold serum Derma Roller - sinks past the epidermis Dermaroll 1-3 times per week - increases blood flow Apply a mask Wash face before bed and use night cream
