However they have arisen, scars can trigger feelings of insecurity, self-consciousness and even embarrassment to those who have them. Scars can be created from a variety of sources, including skin conditions such as acne, accidents big and small and even from surgeries. Although there is nothing wrong with having a scar and they can be celebrated as marks of distinction or experience, having negative feelings about them is completely understandable.
We all want to look our best, and whether the scars are on prominent areas of the body such as the face or places less often seen such as on the stomach, scars can be a daily inconvenience to cover up. While removing a scar completely can be a complex, intrusive and often expensive treatment, there is a range of simple and natural remedies that can help reduce their appearance. This can be a positive move for those who want to make their scars less apparent in the day-to-day lives, and it’s all the better if natural skincare is used.
Better for you, your wallet and the planet.
Vitamin E eases inflammation
Vitamin E is one of the most vital natural ingredients of skin care, blessed with anti-inflammatory properties that help protect skin from UV damage by the sun, clearing out toxins from our bloodstream and making our bodies strong and healthy. Vitamin E is found naturally and in abundance in a wide range of whole foods, including green vegetables such as spinach and broccoli, in seafood like salmon, and in nuts such as sunflower seeds and hazelnuts. For skin care products, vitamin E is often a key ingredient in natural and organic skin care products such as those offered by Natralus, and their use can help lessen the appearance of scars by keeping the affected area clean, supple and protected. By using a skin care product that has vitamin E on an area of skin affected by a scar, you can tone down its appearance while improving the health of the skin covering and surrounding it.
Organic Papaya cleans and clears
Papaya is a fruit that’s delicious to eat that can also have a positive effect on our skin’s health and daily appearance. Infused with high levels of vitamin C and enzymes, papaya is a natural ingredient that can clear away dry or damaged skin and promote better elasticity, making your skin glow with health. By using a skin care product that includes organic papaya, such as Paw Paw Balm, you can give your skin a refreshing dose of vitamins that could reduce the appearance of scar tissue, placing soothing and cleansing vitamins on the affected area.
But beware – many papaya treatments on the market include ingredients that can be made from petroleum jelly, which could aggravate your skin or even make your scars appear more prominent. It is always best to seek out a natural skin care product that uses organic papaya as a key ingredient, as this will ensure the cleanest and most concentrated dose of its unique properties are applied to your skin.
Organic Aloe Vera soothes skin
Aloe Vera is perhaps the best known natural skin care treatment in the world, being used for thousands of years as a natural remedy for sunburn, dry skin and for soothing cuts and abrasions. In modern times, organic aloe vera is found in a wide range of skin care products, and its soothing qualities make it an ideal solution for reducing the appearance of scars, which can become aggravated by sunlight, touching or age. Applying an organic aloe vera skin care product regularly to the affected area can reduce the intensity of the scar’s appearance and promote healthy skin growth and elasticity.
Ultra Skin Repair Gels and Sprays do it all
One of the best ways to take care of your skin in a simple, quick manner is to use a skin repair gel or spray, which typically combines a range of organic natural products that soothe and strengthen skin. The best sprays should call upon the natural powers of organic paw paw, aloe vera and vitamin E, so a quick application infuses the skin with the best possible natural remedies. Natralus Superfood Repair Gel & Spray has a quick-absorbing formula that combines the powers of organic papaya, aloe vera and vitamin E in a convenient, easy to use product.
Moisturised and hydrated skin always looks best
Finally, one of the best ways you can reduce the appearance of scars is also the bedrock solution for all skin care – make sure to keep your skin moisturised and hydrated. This is best done by using a natural, organic moisturiser and drinking plenty of water throughout the day. If you want your skin looking its best, it’s only natural that having plenty of water in your system should be a priority.
Taking care of scars
Scars can be a part of a healthy and happy life, even if they can sometimes cause anxiety. Your body is beautiful however it is, but we understand that it’s a vital thing to feel comfortable in our own skins. By using an organic, natural skin care product, you can reduce the appearance of your scars so you can feel comfortable, and also enjoy the radiant feeling that good skin care can bring.
