Skin

Have you got bad skin and no matter what you do at whatever the cost nothing is bettering your skin back to health. Skin is the biggest  organ of the human body and this stands to reason when we see how much of the body it has to cover. However skin gives rise to many conditions and disorders...whether it is wrinkles, acne, eczema, psoriasis or whatever, they are all conditions women don’t want.

I am going to share with you a personal story about a good friend called Bridget who sadly became reclusive because she believed her skin was so unhealthy that it was showing signs of ageing before its natural time along with other issues linked to wrinkles and more. She become so obsessive about her skin’s appearance it was making her ill

As her friend I did notice she had a slight problem with acne but this didn’t seem to be her concern, however the more she worried the more the stress showed in her face. It was sad to see her this way because it wasn’t as if she didn’t try to repair any skin damage. It came to a point that she was starving herself so she could afford the next marvel cream on the market or method to practice to clear her skin problems. Talking to her was useless, and over time when she saw no improvement after trying nearly every trick in the book she decided the outside world was not for her. She couldn’t bear the thought of going out with her skin in such a lousy condition.

Bridget was once a bubbly girl full of life, but words can’t explain how the pain she endured has left her a shell of her true self and all because she had skin issues.

No matter what I said or done Bridget was having none of it. I tried to help her build her confidence back up, but no. I thought if I could get her back to the old Bridget I knew, I could try and get her to try something new to help nurture her skin back to health. My attempts failed, she had given up and lost hope in anything ever working and curing her problem. I was left with no choice but to go in search myself for a skin treatment that would help Bridget and bring it to her, because she had become so into herself she certainly wasn’t going to come to me.

Well after endless hours of research I found a skincare recipe that I believed was the answer and the solution to treat Bridget’s skin condition. Of course it took a lot of persuasion for her to try it because she had in the past been let down so many times. And those times were heartbreaking to see; she had been hurt so many times, so how much more could she take. Was I doing the right thing, I was a little apprehensive about the treatment I found because I didn’t want to see Bridget hurt again, but if I didn’t give Bridget this chance then what kind of friend am I. With fingers crossed I prayed like I had never prayed before while introducing my best friend to this new found remedy. What made everything all so appealing about the treatment was; it was natural and working for thousands of other women with the same skin problems as Bridget.

Well those endless hours looking for a cure certainly paid off because Bridget is back to her old bubbly self with fresh looking healthy skin, and has since returned back to work, not as a waitress that she was, but as a skin therapist helping other women, who just like her gave up hope.
