Flaxseed is known to be very helpful both in healing illnesses, and nurturing outer beauty of the body. In this article we focus on the skin, and how to use flaxseed to support the restoration processes.

Let’s start by saying, that before we start using the beautifying cosmetics, it is best to acknowledge ones own natural beauty. Our individual face proportions, skin colour, skin type, hair colour and thickness, etc. When we accept ourselves, taking care of our face and body takes on a new meaning. It is joy and not a pursuit of the perfect appearance of models as a condition for happiness. We are who we are, and there is tremendous power in it.

Flax in cosmetics works perfectly. It is used as an ingredient of creams, masks, soaps and healing ointments, as it regenerates, softens and has anti-inflammatory properties.

As we age, in our bodies take place physiological processes (for women it is the hormone levels- estrogen) that result in skin aging. The processes can be even faster, with wrinkles showing up, when our skin is exposed to sunlight. When the level of estrogen decreases, the amount of fibroplasts in the skin (they are responsible for the collagen and hyaluronic acid production in the skin) decreases as well. The skin becomes thinner, less elastic, dryer and the wrinkles emerge.

How do we slow down skin aging? Through visualisations, relaxation, good diet, exercise like joga, meditation, healthy natural cosmetics. Flax seeds moisturize the skin, regenerate it becomes silky smooth.
