Naturally Radiant: Tips to Keep Your Skin Healthy & Glowing




In a world that promotes quick fixes for youthful, "glazed doughnut" skin, many people are opting for natural alternatives with more lasting results.  Costly treatments can come with complications and downtime but you can achieve a radiant complexion by embracing simple, soothing and affordable lifestyle habits along with the right skincare ingredients.


If you're seeking ways to enhance your skin naturally, here’s your guide to staying radiant and healthy without invasive treatments — feel free to take what works best for you and your lifestyle!




1. Lifestyle Choices for Healthy Skin

Let’s start with your daily habits. Here are some simple things that can make a world of difference:

  • Stay Hydrated: Sip herbal teas or infused water with fruits and herbs to keep your skin hydrated and glowing from the inside out.

  • Eat a Rainbow: Savour a vibrant array of colourful fruits, vegetables, herbs and spices, such as purple cabbage, pomegranate, turmeric and spirulina to support skin vitality with essential vitamins, minerals and powerful antioxidants.

  • Dream Deeply: Cultivate a bedtime ritual that fosters deep REM sleep, such as drinking chamomile tea or diffusing essential oils to encourage relaxation and skin rejuvenation overnight.

  • Embrace the Sun Wisely: Seek shade and wear fun hats to protect your skin while enjoying the benefits of natural light and fresh air.

  • Ditch the Vices:  Try creative mocktails and opt for fresh juices to keep your skin hydrated while skipping the dehydrating effects of alcohol and smoking.

  • Cherish Your Cleanse: Elevate your routine with natural exfoliants like oatmeal, yogurt or clay masks to cleanse pores and banish impurities.


2. Mindset and Stress Management

Stress can wreak havoc on your skin, causing breakouts, dullness and even premature aging.  

Fostering a positive mindset is important. By embracing uplifting thoughts and celebrating your body’s changes you can raise your vibration to attract what you want, like glowing skin and overall wellness. Surrounding yourself with positive people, reducing screen time and social media can enhance this mindset, helping you focus better, avoid negativity and create a supportive environment.


Slowing down and doubling down on mindfulness practices such as meditation, deep breathing, nature walks and even gratitude exercises can help to calm your mind and nurture your spirit.  By focusing on positive affirmations and visualizing your goals, you can align your thoughts with your aspirations, inviting more radiant beauty into your life.


Engage in joyful activities—such as dancing, yoga or pickleball—to boost circulation, improve strength and flexibility and infuse your skin with fresh oxygen and vitality.  Prioritizing self-care and movement is not just beneficial for your mental health; it also elevates your skin’s natural glow creating a beautiful harmony between your inner and outer self.


3. Facial Exercises and Massage Techniques

Facial exercises, sometimes referred to as "face yoga" and massage techniques can help tone the muscles beneath your skin, increase blood flow and improve the elasticity of your skin. These methods, when done consistently, can provide a natural lift and reduce the appearance of fine lines.

  • Facial Exercises: Simple movements like sweeping your forehead, puffing out your cheeks, raising your eyebrows or stroking your jawline can stimulate, strengthen and relax the muscles.  Imagine the possibilities by dedicating just 5-10 minutes per day.

  • Facial Massage: Using gentle circular motions or tapping with your fingertips can boost circulation and relax tense muscles.  Additionally, the cooling and smoothing effects of a stone roller or Gua Sha—a flat-edged tool—encourages lymph fluid movement, helping to remove toxins, reduce fluid retention and decrease puffiness in the skin.


For added benefits incorporate a face oil like Mountain Breeze into your massage routine for smooth gliding and added hydration.


4. Three Key Ingredients to Boost Your Skincare Routine

Alongside lifestyle changes and mindful self-care, nourishing your skin with the right ingredients can enhance its overall health, providing essential "skin food" that supports a vibrant complexion. Here are 3 powerhouse ingredients to look out for:


  1.  Squalane (Featured in Goldrush Serum)

Squalane is a plant-derived oil that mimics your skin's natural oils, making it an excellent hydrator. Lightweight and non-greasy, squalane locks in moisture, helping to plump up the skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines. Its antioxidant properties also protect your skin from free radicals. Using a serum like Goldrush, which is enriched with squalane, can keep your skin soft, smooth and protected.


  1.  Sea Buckthorn Oil (Found in Goldrush Serum and Alpenglo Face Oil)

Packed with vitamins, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids, sea buckthorn oil is a skin saviour. It helps to repair skin damage, boost collagen production and improve skin tone. This nutrient-rich oil supports the skin barrier, locks in moisture and brightens the complexion.  Incorporating Alpenglo Face Oil into your routine ensures that your skin is nourished with this golden elixir.


  1.  Niacinamide (Coming Soon in the New Moonshine Regenerative Night Cream)

Niacinamide, a form of Vitamin B3, is a multitasking ingredient that offers a wide range of benefits for the skin. It helps to improve skin texture and tone, diminish dullness and minimize the appearance of pores. Its anti-inflammatory properties soothe the skin making it an excellent choice for all skin types. Keep an eye out for our new Moonshine Regenerative Night Cream, which harnesses the power of niacinamide to replenish your skin while you sleep.


4. Embrace the Natural Glow

Although some treatments may promise quick results, they often neglect the long-term health of your skin. By embracing change and focusing on natural alternatives like facial massage, effective skincare ingredients and healthy lifestyle choices, you can enjoy lasting radiant skin.
