Anti aging skin care: eat it, or put it on your skin?

Food-based treatments are the latest anti aging skin care at many spas, because customers are becoming wary of chemical-based products.

Food is the hot new spa treatment reports: “‘I was blown away by the results I could get from using food-based ingredients,’ says Oresta Korbutiak, owner of Oresta Organics in Ottawa, whose facial offerings include Chocolate Decadence and Yam and Pumpkin Enzyme Peel. ‘I get better results from food-based products than I did from the chemical lines I used before.’”

So there you have it: it’s time to raid the fridge and the vegetable bin for facials which are not only good enough to eat, but which help your skin too.

In a similar healthy vein, many spas use essential oils for treating mature aging skin and wrinkles. Favorite oils including geranium, lavender and sandalwood.
