Raw photo from a recent family portrait photo session in celebration of my mother's birthday. From time-to-time people ask what my skin care secrets are and what products I use.
My daughter posted a behind-the-scenes picture of her sister and me from the shoot on Instagram and the comments where as follows: MB: "Your mother is so beautiful." My daughter: "lol and she won't let us forget it." MB: "feel free to pass on her skincare tips. I'm guessing she's an 8 glass of water a day type of lady." My daughter: "@akuaauset MB wants to know your skincare secrets." This was my response: "First I do work I LOVE. And having a career/business around holistic beauty helps with staying on track. I'm mindful about my consumption on every level: spiritually, mentally, beauty products, food, people, music, etc. I do make it a point to drink half my body's weight in oz. of water and water-rich foods. Eat lots of fruits and veggies in their raw state including honeydew melons and avocadoes. It's VERY important to stay "regular." I greatly limit white refined and processed foods as well as alcohol and breads which are drying and coffee which is acidic. I dance and sweat as much as possible. I laugh and am silly which keeps me from staying stressed. Thanks for the question. What are some of your secrets?" ♡ ☆ ♀ Akua Day 14 of 1/12 Moons Waxing Gibbous |
