  What Do You Think When You Hear “Bamboo”?

  When most people hear the word “bamboo” they think of pandas munching on green bamboo sticks and leaves or they may think of outdoor furniture. However, in the far east, bamboo products have been used for centuries in traditional Asian medicine.

  Bamboo In The Western World

  Today, we know that even switching your pillowcase from cotton to bamboo can make a big difference in how clear your skin looks when you wake up each morning. Especially, if you tend to get congestion on the cheeks. Sweat and bacteria fester through the night creating havoc on your skin. Allow bamboo to save the day (or night!)

  The Amazing Benefits Of Bamboo Extract

  Bamboo extract is now being used almost everywhere in Asian beauty products. This is because it works both as an antibacterial fighter to keep skin clear and also for creating stronger healthier skin. 

  Restore Skin Elasticity

  What makes it such an effective skincare product is the fact that bamboo extract is made up mainly of silica which supports the integrity of the skin. In fact, bamboo is one of the richest natural sources of silica in the world. We are all born this natural nutrient that consists of a major part of our collagen stores within the body. However, the levels of silica gradually decrease with age, which contributes to a reduction in skin’s overall elasticity and ability to heal wounds effectively. 

  Moisturize Your Skin

  Bamboo extract also helps our skin create Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) which, when at their optimum level, prevent moisture loss within the skin. This powerful combination of benefits means that aging skin treated with products containing bamboo extract will start to look smoother, firmer and plumper with regular use. Consequently, by using bamboo skincare products, we benefit from its anti-aging and clarifying properties.

  Protect Your Skin

  In addition to the high concentration of silica, bamboo extract also contains natural antioxidants that protect your skin against harmful free radicals and UV-induced damage. As a result, you are able to maintain a smoother and more radiant complexion. It also contains methanol which has anti-inflammatory properties. What’s more, it is an anti-irritant, making it safe for sensitive skin. Bamboo extract provides soothing and calming benefits that can help reduce the symptoms of dry skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis.

  The Fall season slows our bodily systems as a means to store energy for the winter. This means a sluggish liver which often brings hormonal cystic acne, especially in the chin area.

   The Eight Greens line is here to help! This is a phytoestrogen-based line that is specifically used to treat hormonal imbalances in the skin. These hormonal imbalance result in an increase in oil gland production in the skin which can clog pores and cause breakouts.

  The Eight Greens serum, the Eight Greens Whip moisturizer, and the Eight Greens masks have added paprika to stimulate and detoxify. They also help clear up existing cystic breakouts and prevent any more from appearing.

  Our Recommendations

  Treat hormonal breakouts by maintaining a proper hygienic skincare routine and trying to avoid unnecessary stress. What’s more, it is highly recommended that you limit foods that increase inflammation, for example, sugar, dairy and refined carbohydrates, while at the same time you should add foods to your diet that promote hormonal health such as healthy fats, leafy greens and foods high in zinc and omega-3 fatty acids.

  

  You can also tackle hormonal breakouts with your skincare routine. Eminence Organic’s Eight Greens products are ideal for breakouts because they contain plant-based estrogens that are formulated to target problem skin.
