In fact, our skin regenerates every 27 days. While skin aging is natural, there are still ways we can follow to make sure our skin is healthy and at its best, even as we grow old. Herbs are popular options when it comes to maintaining healthy skin. Many skincare products and supplements contain medicinal herbs that aid skin rejuvenation and promote overall skin health. According to surveys, over 58% of Americans prefer natural or organic skincare products. Many individuals prefer herbs because all-natural is often better than synthetic or artificial chemicals, which can be harmful or toxic to the skin. Plus, herbal skincare is an eco-friendly option. Skin regeneration is the process of constant renewal of skin cells. It occurs when our old, dead skin cells on the skin’s surface are replaced by younger new cells. It helps renew, restore, and repair our skin. While skin regeneration is a natural process, some factors can affect it. Age ~ Your skin naturally changes as you age. These changes are due to the decrease of collagens and elastin, proteins responsible for giving our skin its youthful and glowing look. Studies show that we experience a gradual reduction in collagen production when we reach about 34 years old. It will continue to reduce by 25% over the next 40 years. As skin aging happens, the impacts on our skin usually include dryness, wrinkles, loss of elasticity, laxity, and many others. 2. Lifestyle ~ Lifestyle habits have a significant impact on our skin. Drinking lots of water, maintaining a nutritious diet, getting enough sleep, and regular exercise are good daily habits to help your skin. These routines promote enough fats, fluid, and nutrition to keep the production of collagen, elastin, and other nutrients beneficial to your skin’s overall health. Meanwhile, excessive alcohol, cigarette smoking, stress, and a sedentary lifestyle can negatively affect your skin cells. Chemicals in cigarettes and alcohol damage your skin cells and lower collagen and elastin levels. Hormone changes caused by stress and a sedentary lifestyle alter your skin’s pH, or the level of acidity or alkalinity, leaving your skin looking dull and dehydrated. 3. Genetics ~ Genes also contribute to our skin type, whether we have dry, normal, or oily skin. Even skin conditions such as acne or eczema have a genetic predisposition and may be hereditary. Studies show that 60% of changes in skin aging are attributed to genetic factors. 4. Environment ~ The environment we live in could also affect our skin’s health. Pollution, toxic chemicals, dust, too much sun exposure, and microbes can clog up our pores, causing irritation and skin aging issues. It also leads to age spots, which are dark pigmentation on the skin. 5. Hormonal Changes ~ Estrogen is one of the primary hormones responsible for giving your skin its youthful glow. It produces hyaluronic acid, which provides the skin with enough moisture and reduces fine lines and wrinkles. Changes in estrogen levels can cause skin dryness in women during pregnancy, menopause, and other conditions. The 10 Best Herbs for Skin Regeneration for A Healthier Skin – The Green Leaf We based this blend on Organic Sesame Oil, and the product is completely Vegan. Sesame oil is packed with health benefits for the skin due to its rich composition of nutrients and antioxidants. Sesame oil is deeply hydrating, helping to lock in moisture and combat dryness, making your skin feel soft and supple. It contains vitamin E, which helps protect your skin from free radicals and environmental damage, reducing signs of aging like wrinkles and fine lines. With anti-inflammatory properties, sesame oil can calm irritated skin and promote healing for minor cuts or scrapes. While not a substitute for sunscreen, sesame oil offers mild protection against harmful UV rays and when massaged into the skin, sesame oil can help remove toxins and impurities, giving you a refreshed glow. Next, we added Mangosteen Berry Oil. Mangosteen contains xanthones, powerful antioxidants that help combat free radicals, reducing signs of aging and promoting healthier skin. The fruit’s compounds may reduce inflammation, which can help soothe irritated skin and improve conditions like acne and is a reliable source of vitamin C, which supports collagen production and helps maintain skin elasticity. Mangosteen’s antibacterial properties may help protect the skin from infections and promote clearer complexion. Peppermint Gum was included because it can help reduce redness and swelling, making it useful for conditions like acne and eczema. Its invigorating scent can complement the sauna experience, while its cooling effect can refresh the skin. Peppermint Gum cleanses the skin by removing impurities that can lead to breakouts. It boosts ceramide production, which helps the skin retain moisture and maintain its barrier. Its antiseptic qualities make it effective for treating minor wounds, burns, and insect bites and it contains Eucalyptol, a key component, which promotes blood circulation and can invigorate the skin. Next, we included Virginian Cedarwood Oil which is derived from the Virginian cedar tree. It has anti-inflammatory and antiseptic properties that can help soothe skin conditions like acne and psoriasis. Additionally, it may reduce redness and irritation, promoting a healthier complexion. Jojoba Oil was also added. Jojoba oil is a powerhouse for skincare and offers multiple benefits! It is liquid wax extracted from the seeds of the jojoba plant. Here are some of its key advantages for your skin: Jojoba oil is an excellent natural moisturizer. It mimics the skin’s natural sebum, helping to hydrate without clogging pores, making it great for all skin types. Its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial qualities can help soothe irritated skin, including conditions like eczema or acne. Rich in vitamins E and B, as well as antioxidants, jojoba oil can help fight free radicals and improve skin elasticity, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Since it closely resembles skin’s natural oil, it does not block pores, which makes it an excellent choice for acne-prone skin and it can enhance the skin barrier and support its ability to retain moisture, aiding in the repair of dry or damaged skin. After a sauna session, your skin is warm, your pores are open, and your body is relaxed, making it the perfect time to nurture your skin with Jojoba Oil so it can balance your skin oils and add moisture. We also included Aloe Vera. Aloe vera is lightweight and hydrates the skin without making it greasy, which makes it great for all skin types, including oily skin. Its cooling properties help relieve sunburn and speed up the healing process by promoting skin repair. Aloe vera contains compounds that may help accelerate wound healing, including minor cuts and abrasions or general inflammation of the skin. With its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, aloe vera can help calm acne breakouts and prevent future ones. Aloe vera is rich in antioxidants, such as beta-carotene and vitamins C and E, which help improve skin elasticity and fight signs of aging and its  soothing properties may help reduce itchiness and irritation associated with conditions like eczema or psoriasis. Rose Geranium Oil was also included because it contains antioxidants that help reduce signs of aging by improving your skin’s ability to heal from environmental damage. It can soothe irritated skin and reduce redness, making it helpful for conditions like eczema or dermatitis. Its properties can protect your skin from infections and promote faster healing of minor cuts or wounds and it helps regulate oil production, making it suitable for both dry and oily skin. Rose Geranium also supports adrenal glands and balances hormones, reducing mood swings and irritability. Next, we added Frankincense Oil. Frankincense may help soothe irritated skin and reduce redness, making it beneficial for conditions like acne or eczema. Its properties can support the healing of minor cuts, scars, and blemishes. Frankincense is believed to improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. It can help regulate sebum production, making it suitable for both oily and dry skin types and may help cleanse the skin and prevent infections. Finally, we added Helichrysum Oil. Helichrysum may help reduce skin inflammation, making it useful for conditions like redness or irritation. It is believed to promote faster healing of wounds and prevent infections due to its antimicrobial properties. Its antioxidant properties can help combat free radicals, potentially reducing signs of aging and promoting healthier skin and the oil’s antibacterial qualities may help in managing acne by reducing bacteria on the skin plus reducing appearance of scars.
