Acne can
hit you at almost any time in your life from teenage years through to your
older more mature years. Unfortunately acne holds no bounds.
Suffering from the effects of acne in your teenage years can
be extremely difficult but when it appears later on in life then things can become
somewhat embarrassing, as many people think “this shouldn’t be happening to me
at this age”.
Perhaps you are now suffering from acne and need to find a solution to help control it. Have you
tried skincare products containing sea kelp?
Kelp extract, also known as Durvillaea potatorum (kelp)
aqueous extractis and often referred to as sea kelp or seaweed is an effective ingredient in
dealing with acne.
It is perfect for people with oily or combination skin
types. Why? It moisturises without supplying extra oil. Yes the challenge
combination skin or acne sufferers often face is that they have oil on the one
hand, and yet at the same time also have dry patches.
Sea kelp is firming, healing and soothing for any skin
type and is incredibly effective for normal and dry skin, as it is a powerful and
nutritious moisturiser. That’s why it is great for combination skin types.
For thousands of years herbalists have used
sea kelp to treat an array of problems. Kelp is rich in many minerals and active ingredients,
moisturizing your skin and providing nutrients at the same time. It contains over 60
vitamins and minerals which are needed by your body to help it function well.
And, it contains high levels of Iodine which support your thyroid naturally. Why
is that important? The thyroid gland controls our metabolism, which can help
keep your weight in check, while boosting your energy levels too.
Sea kelp can help regulate the oil production of your skin,
remove bacteria and reduce redness with the help of its anti-inflammatory
properties. It also contains elements that help remove toxins
and can easily penetrate the skin for instant hydration and helping to keep
your skin smooth.
It
can be used as a natural exfoliator, helping to remove dead skin cells, which
can cause blocked pores and further acne breakouts.
Research has
also shown that kelp extract, can help prevent wrinkles with its rich
moisturizing advantage. Kelp can also help prevent the breakdown of elastin and
collagen, promoting a youthful appearance.
