We often take our skin for granted and slap our creams on in a rush.  If we love our skin inside out, it will help boost our self esteem, creating a positive ripple effect with ourselves, our partners, our families, our communities and the world at large.

As many people know, I enjoy writing poems and stories to illustrate a point.

Instead of writing lists of products and treatments one can purchase or should use each decade (which I will do eventually on another blog), I thought I would leave you this poem which I hope will inspire you to see skin in a different light.  The how is the easy part.  Knowing the why is the important key.

Our skin is the largest organ in our body – a living, breathing organ with it’s own ecosystem.  It’s an extension of our souls and a wrapping of the greatest gift of all – life.  We only have one so make sure you take care of it.
