The contrary attitude.
Dermatology, skin care, aesthetics and cosmetics all try to preserve your skin when you're supposed to assist its natural exfoliation system by grooming it.
You don't want to conserve your old skin, you want it to regenerate itself continuously.

No wonder it deteriorates the way it does.
But, all those skin problems are a thing of the past.
Even just a few minutes of grooming will give your skin a shine and a radiance that cosmetics cannot parallel.

At last, grooming permits the completion of the skin's desquamation process.

Coats of dead cells can be raked off easily using superficial grooming techniques.

Your skin is rejuvenated and renewed as it should naturally be.
Dead epidermis cells are designed to strip off daily.

The process is called desquamation.

Skin flakes that get loose, scurf and dandruff are all normal reactions.

You should not try to conserve these old peels.

Anything you put on your skin that hampers their shedding is detrimental.

Your body has over five million sebaceous glands acting like five million little cream tubes.

Sebum is a natural lubricant.

It is spread over your skin while grooming.

It locks moisture in, while keeping the lines of communication between your skin and the outside open.

This is the natural substance your skin wants and needs.

Your sebum has been standing almost idle in these glands for all your life.

At last, grooming your skin releases it.

Only apply cream on parts of your body that you have washed with soap.
Once, that's it.
Washing with soap, shampoo, cleansers, ... removes your skin's natural hydration, so you want to restore it.
But, stop putting cream on your face before you go to sleep or any other time, except after washing it with soap.

You think you are protecting it, when in fact you are harming it.

It is seeking liberation, then you harness it.

You don't want to preserve old skin.

How do you want superficial flakes to cast off if they are covered with a retaining agent?

Even for scratches and contusions, your skin is best left alone to heal with proper air contact.

All kinds of artificial methods have been invented to remove dead cells from the surface of the skin.
You'll find rasps, soaps, clays, masks, cleansers, gels and all kinds of treatments; from using cucumbers to lasers and dermabrasion.
Those are all useless inventions because you are all ready equipped with the best tool to do the job; your flat nails.
You will get much better results by using superficial grooming techniques than with any other methods.
Contrarily to rasps and gels, your nails can feel the skin.
You can easily find out where it is thicker, thinner, bumped or warped and adapt your work accordingly.
Some skin areas need more exfoliation than others and only your nails will tell where they are.

You have to make the distinction between healthy tanning and sunburn.
Sunburn is harmful and must be avoided, but exposing your skin to the sun is very important; it is an essential part of an healthy living.
A lot has been said about the link between tanning and skin cancer, but grooming your skin eliminates the possibility that it develops.
Your skin needs the sunlight; it nourishes and energizes you and it's just plain fun.
Vitamin D, that your body needs, is produced in skin that is exposed to sunlight.
Learn how to tan safely and avoid using sunscreens.

You should get your body completely wet for several minutes every day.
You have to humidify your skin long enough to replenish it's moisture, so towels don't do the job.
Try to limit your soap or shampoo usage as much as you can.
Only use soap on parts of your body that need it.

Any pressure you exert on your skin can cause all kinds of problems in the long run.
Clothes, jewelry or eyeglasses may seem normal to you, but they're pure hell for the skin beneath them.
Wearing a watch, socks, a bra, a necktie, ... will gradually create folds, pain and deformations at places where they tighten the skin.
Your skin is your largest organ and it is designed to be in contact with the air and the elements.
Stay nude as much as you can.

Stop relying on others and take control of your skin care.
Your reliance on estheticians, cosmetologists, beauty specialists and fashion experts stops you from really taking charge of your skin.
Having other people supervising such a personal aspect of yourself as your skin makes you small.
Aren't you old enough to know what's best for you?
If not, it's time that you start informing yourself and making up your own mind.
Avoid spas, skin clinics, beauty salons and dermatologists and be your own specialist.
Only you knows what is happening to your skin on a daily basis and have the time to treat each little problem effectively.
Your skin is your responsibility.
Take care of it yourself.

As soon as you start grooming your skin, you will notice how it glows, how it shines, how warm and healthy its tone is, how people look at you, ...
Grooming your skin has many benefits, such as pain relief and blood and nervous transmission, but aesthetics is certainly one of them.
Not only can you rid your skin of the dead cells on its surface with superficial grooming, you can remove any unwanted feature on your body and face with pressure grooming techniques.
You should have been grooming all your life, but it's never too late to start.

Humans start out as beautiful children, only to become ugly adults and monstrous elderlies.
Anyone can observe how their skin degenerates during their lifetime.
So, they've invented all kinds of tools, compounds and techniques to prevent and stop this deterioration.
Ironically, they had the solution to their problem at the tip of their fingers.

Putting make-up on your skin is not taking care of it, on the contrary.
Using cosmetics is detrimental to your skin.

Some chemicals penetrate deeply.

Applying them forms a barrier on the skin.

It becomes choked with no air access; communication with the outside world is cut.
Once you start grooming, you'll stop putting on make-up.

You'll soon find out that your skin is much more attractive and beautiful when left unadorned.
Anyway, make-up and grooming don't mix because you can't groom when you have make-up on your face.

People who get their skin injected with fillers, such as Botox, are misinformed, gullible, vain or foolish.
Probably a mix of those.
How can you play with your health by shooting compounds with unknown long-time effects in your body?
Moreover, these products work by diminishing the motricity of your facial muscles and make you look as inexpressive as wood.
Yet, facial expressions are one of the most important aspects of someone's beauty.

Aesthetic skin surgery is dead; except to repair damages caused by accidents.
Grooming your face gives much better results without cutting or hurting the skin.
Using pressure grooming techniques, you can get rid of any feature or trait that bothers you, including the size and the shape of your nose.
Grooming does take longer, but you're not submitting your body to any operation and post-operative stress.
Finally, grooming is natural, healthy and gives astonishing results, while surgery is unnatural, risky and you end up with a skin patchwork.

Your skin needs all its hair to function normally.
You can cut it, but you can't use any permanent removal techniques.
You are a monkey and a mammal. Accept it!
Hair is a indispensable part of grooming, because every time your nail bends an hair shaft, it liberates some sebum.
Sebum is a natural lubricant that keeps your skin and hair hydrated.
No hair, no sebum.

In the past, we didn't know why we had flat nails at the tip of our fingers.
They seemed useless, so people would cut them short or decorate them.
But, now we know!
Flat nails are specialized grooming tools.
Yes, God has placed remarkable skin care tools at the tip of each of your fingers and toes.
It's not to do nothing with them.
You want to respect your nails and take care of them yourself.
It's your body, you are responsible of all its aspects; so stop having your nails manicured or pedicured by someone else.
Stop decorating them with nail polish; you don't want those chemicals on your skin while grooming it.
Keep the length of your nails within the grooming range.

It is good that you respond to any itch, tingle, irritation or pain with a manual inspection in order to determine its cause.

The problem is with your usual reaction; scratching the skin.
Instead, you're supposed to groom the skin with your nail to locate the exact location of the bothersome sensation.
Every time, you will discover that your annoyance comes from a fold crossing that feels like a cave, a crater or a bump in your skin.
Opening up those formations with your nails to diminish their internal tension will solve your irritation problem; while scratching them will only anesthetize the skin and relieve you temporarily.
You can put lots of pressure on your skin with your nails and perform all kinds of moves to free it from the folds, but you can't scrath or pinch it.

If you want to extract the content of a pimple; you can press your nails on the skin on both sides, but you can't pinch it directly.

The way humans generally treat their skin is disrespectful of this remarkable evolution.

They don't seem to realize that it is a living organ and that it has to be cared for.

Trying to beautify yourself by hiding your skin behind nice clothes, hats, cosmetics, glasses or jewelry is ridiculous.

Stay away from destructive practices such as tattooing, piercing, permanent make-up, cosmetic injections, aesthetic or plastic surgery, ...
Get to know your skin, not only on the surface, but through its complete thickness, by learning grooming techniques.

Your skin is not a toy.

Your lack of respect for it reveals your lack of respect for yourself.
