Your skin is an organ. Like your heart, or your liver. Meaning, it is a specialized set of tissues that works together to perform necessary biological functions. Your skin keeps water inside your body, regulates your temperature, protects your internal organs from the outside world, turns sunlight into vitamin D (a nutrient you need to stay alive), and flushes toxins out of your body. You

Your epidermis is the top layer of your skin, and it contains four types of skin cells. Keratinocytes produce keratin, a fibrous protein that guards your body against heat, bacteria, and chemicals. Melanocytes produce melanin, which is responsible for the color of your skin and protects you from the sun by absorbing UV light. Langerhans cells function like the immune system of your skin by helping produce antibodies that fight infection. And then there are Merkel cells, which connect to your nerve cells and allow you to experience the sensation of touch. Your epidermis is about a tenth of a millimeter thick, except on your palms and feet, which are layered with an extra two millimeters of cushioning. Because, you know, they work pretty hard.

The dermis is right underneath your epidermis, and it is made up of proteins you’ve heard of many times: elastin and collagen. They make your skin strong, stretchy, and, as you may have guessed, elastic. When you cut your skin, your dermis produces extra collagen to fill and heal the wound. Your dermis also produces hyaluronic acid, a chemical that helps hold hydration in the skin, making you look youthful. The constant activity in your dermis is what we correlate with “healthy” skin: it’s doing all of the behind-the-scenes work to make your skin look soft and vibrant.

Beneath those two layers is your subcutaneous fat, which, as its name suggests, is a layer of fat that connects the nerves from your dermis and epidermis to the rest of your body, while also protecting your insides with a really sexy cushion.

The oil that your skin produces is a good thing. It’s called sebum. It keeps your hair from drying out, it stops too much water from evaporating off your skin, it keeps your skin soft, and, perhaps most importantly, it kills bacteria.

your skin cleans itself . . . whether or not you use a fancy exfoliant. One of the ways the integumentary system works with the body’s other organs is that waste toxins are expelled through sweat, and your skin contains a whole ecosystem of healthy bacteria that are responsible for eliminating them. This ecosystem is called your skin flora, and not only does it get rid of the bad stuff in your sweat, it’s constantly fighting outside organisms to keep them from entering your body.

OLIVE OIL: This popular oil contains the highest level of monounsaturated fat (aka, unsaturated fat) of any plant oil. It lowers cholesterol, fights inflammation, lowers blood pressure, promotes weight loss, and reduces your risk for developing diabetes, arthritis, and osteoporosis.

Olive oil is best when unrefined, so always look for extra-virgin and drizzle on raw veggies or on food after it’s been cooked to preserve the nutritional integrity of the oil.

restaurants are not frying food in healthy, organic oils. They are using cheap, low-quality junk oils (like soy, which we just talked about) that do not have the right proportions of essential fatty acids.

when you heat any oil hot enough to fry something, it breaks down the molecules in the oil and creates free radicals. And of course, that wreaks havoc not just with your skin but inside your body, too.

A restaurant fries food in the same super-hot oil over and over again. This causes two things: oxidation and hydrogenation. In oxidation, the fat breaks down, loses its natural antioxidants, and starts to form free radicals. Hydrogenation causes the fat to change into an ultra-saturated fat, or a trans fat.

Our bodies are completely incapable of recognizing trans fats as anything real or natural (because they’re not), so we respond with an inflammatory response, as if we are fighting an invader. And we kind of are.

if you wrote out a list of all the things no one should ever eat again, it would probably be the ingredient list on most packaged foods, even the healthy ones. And even when they’re not bad, they’re also just not fresh. I call them dead ingredients. That’s really how you should think of them. Once something is packaged, it’s a product, not so much a food.

beauty products and cosmetics penetrate your skin and get inside of your body, too. When you apply a cream and it disappears into your skin, that’s exactly what it’s doing—going into your skin and traveling straight to your bloodstream. On top of absorbing chemicals, you are also inhaling them and sometimes eating them (like in your lip balm and toothpaste).

When a product uses INCI “language” to list its ingredients, it can look like a confusing list of chemicals. But it’s actually either the full, proper chemical name, or it’s a natural ingredient written in Latin. So a paraben will be “Methylparaben,” and water will be “Aqua.”

wake up, brush teeth, splash water on face, apply a natural moisturizer (maybe even just some coconut oil or olive oil from your pantry), use deodorant, and apply mascara. Go out. Come home. Quickly clean face and mascara off with more oil from your kitchen, wash hair with shampoo. Go to bed. Condition hair only on weekends, use a face cleanser once a week, and exfoliate once a month. Make a homemade face mask once in a blue moon for fun or for furious skin (a breakout; a sunburn; or dry, chapped skin from freezing weather).

Apple cider vinegar is the best astringent in nature because it helps to balance your skin’s pH, making you both less oily and less dry. Plus, it promotes blood circulation and kills bacteria, yeasts, and viruses. Always dilute apple cider vinegar! It is pungent stuff. I recommend using a mixture of one part vinegar to four parts water. Apply to your face with cotton or a spritzer. No need to wash it off.

CLEANSING MUD This “mud” is great for people with skin that is prone to acne, redness, or painful chapping. Coconut milk is incredibly soothing, and cinnamon is a “strong” ingredient; but when diluted, cinnamon kills bacteria and fights acne. And clay—in the beauty aisle at natural grocery stores and drugstores—is detoxifying and purifying; it will pull dirt from your skin, which then gets rinsed away! ¼ teaspoon powdered cinnamon 1 tablespoon dry clay 3 tablespoons coconut milk Mix cinnamon and clay in a small bowl. Pour in coconut milk, stirring the liquid into the dry powder evenly (use a fork or whisk to break up any clumps). Eventually, it will become a paste. Apply like a wet face scrub with a cotton ball or with your hands. You can leave it on until it dries or rinse off immediately. The mud dries out quickly, so this recipe makes only about two applications. You’ll want to make a fresh batch each time you use it.

BREAKOUT-BUSTING SODA PASTE This paste is great for acne-prone and oily skin. Baking soda will kill the bacteria on your face that’s causing breakouts, and sweet almond oil will stop the baking soda from drying you out. Sweet almond oil will also kill the bacteria in your oily pores. It’s extremely gentle, and it’ll soak in and hydrate your skin. This paste also makes a great spot treatment and will zap a zit in no time. 1 tablespoon baking soda Slightly less than 1 tablespoon sweet almond oil Combine both ingredients in a small jar or bowl and stir well to make an oily paste. Gently scrub onto face in small, circular motions and rinse clean. Or apply to blemishes and leave on overnight to reduce redness and inflammation. Rinse off in the morning before washing your face like usual. This recipe will make over a dozen uses, and it can be stored for a few months.

The main difference between an exfoliant and a mask is how they do their work. With an exfoliant, you scrub it on and activate it as you use it; with a mask, you apply it to your skin and give it some time to work its magic. Both will technically exfoliate your skin—meaning they pull out toxins, dirt, and oil, slough off dead skin cells, and get your blood flowing.
