Being holistically healthy has been getting more popular as a main life goal for many people today. However, while wanting it is one thing, consistently achieving it is another.
It often starts with getting the adequate nutrition and regular exercise that you need, so that means changing the food you usually eat and adjusting your daily routine to sneak in more time for things like running, sports, and more. From there, you could reflect on the goals and needs that you must fill and work your way to them, improving your overall well-being in the process. After that, your looks will just reflect the efforts you put into caring for yourself and your own health.
This is still true for those of you who are suffering from certain illnesses like heart diseases and diabetes, many of which are incurable and/or challenging to manage. The only differences are that the proper treatments for these tend to become a part of your life and have effects on the skin that may or may not disappear even after you take those treatments and have already adopted a healthier lifestyle.
And sometimes, those skin effects can be a pain to deal with.
Illnesses, Their Effects and Your Skin
As mentioned earlier, there are illnesses that are life-altering and very difficult to cure or even manage, like those that affect the heart, gut, glucose, immune system, and more. They are called noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) or “lifestyle diseases,” which often manifest due to people’s genetic history, environmental exposure, and/or lifestyles and last for several years or decades. The best ways to deal with them is either to lessen the risks of getting sick or managing the illnesses themselves. But, despite how advanced the field of medicine has become, these ailments are more common and serious than we thought.
In fact, as of late 2023 in the Philippines, the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) has put cardiovascular diseases (ischaemic heart diseases) as the number one cause of death when it comes to illnesses in the country, followed closely by tumors, cerebrovascular diseases (blood flow issues), and diabetes.
Now, many of these lifestyle diseases are usually discovered when their symptoms become more apparent, and their presence confirmed by appropriate medical specialists and various exams. However, some of them do show a few warning signs on your skin.
Two well-known examples of this are the skin conditions that are associated with cardiovascular diseases and diabetes. The American Academy of Dermatology Association (ADAA) has listed common skin effects for both oof them, some of which include:
The tricky part is that, on their own, you wouldn’t know that these skin effects are signs that you are either afflicted with or are at risk of developing lifestyle diseases. So, it’s best to have these checked as soon as you can with a medical professional or two for both the skin condition and the possible NCD its associated with.
At least then, with the (prescribed) proper treatment and a change in lifestyle, these lifestyle diseases and their symptoms would gradually lessen or be manageable over time. But what if their skin effects remain or leave scars and blemishes behind?
That’s where the “holistic” part of holistic health comes in.
NUTRILITE™ + ARTISTRY™ Healthy Skin Solutions
While getting adequate nutrients, maintaining a sustainable fitness routine, taking proper medicine (if you need to), and choosing healthier life habits may improve your overall health, you can also use a little boost to help you support your health and nourish your skin at the same time. After all, being holistically healthy means taking care of yourself both inside and outside.
That is why two of Amway’s core brands, NUTRILITE™ and ARTISTRY™, have come together to create Healthy Skin Solutions that meet your skin needs while still being gentle enough to work with various skin types.
Composed of plant-based and effective products that use certain vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients to support your skin and more, the two solutions each contain a supplement* and a skincare product to address both the internal and external areas of your skin. Aside from this, the ingredients in the solutions’ featured ARTISTRY Skin Nutrition™ items are vegan, traceable, free from any harmful substances, and have been dermatologically tested and proven safe for use, ensuring that even those who are suffering from the skin effects of certain lifestyle illnesses can get the most benefits out of them.
So, whether it’s just finding gentler, more reliable ways to do skincare or to find items that fit your needs while managing and recovering from skin conditions, you can count on the NUTRILITE™ + ARTISTRY™ Healthy Skin Solutions to help you achieve your holistic health goals.
*DISCLAIMER: The supplements featured here have NO APPROVED THERAPEUTIC CLAIMS. Please consult your doctor before consuming any of them, especially if you are either a child under 12 years old, a pregnant mother, or suffering from a health condition that might be affected by these.
The NUTRILITE™ + ARTISTRY™ Skin Radiance Pack is the go-to solution to get radiant complexion, smooth skin, and a way to even out dark spots. Comprised of the ARTISTRY™ Skin Nutrition Vitamin C + HA3 Serum and the NUTRILITE™ Acerola C Chewable Tablet, this solution makes use of the Vitamin C derived from Acerola cherries to slow early skin aging, improve dark spots, and even help reduce fine lines and wrinkles. And along with that, both items in it further nourish your skin in different yet compatible ways.
The Vitamin C + HA3 Serum’s Triple Hyaluronic Acid Fusion keeps your skin both hydrated and plump thanks to the varying HA molecules’ sizes and molecular weights, which help balance your skin’s internal moisture levels, volumize it, and smoothen it. On the other hand, the Acerola C Chewable Tablet provides more concentrated levels of Vitamin C, which helps keep your skin soft and healthy from the inside (by boosting your collagen production) and supports all-day immunity. In short, this solution is great for lessening common skin concerns and reducing uneven skin tones, dark patches, and scars.
It also helps that the Acerola cherries used in the products for this solution were grown from NUTRILITE™’s farms, ensuring that it and the other ingredients in these items are traceable and carefully cultivated from seed to production. Other benefits this solution provides include all-day immunity support (via Acerola C), visible damage prevention (via the Vitamin C + HA3 Serum), and more.
On the other hand, the NUTRILITE™ + ARTISTRY™ Skin Protect Pack helps protect your skin from pollutants, sun damage and other skin-damaging factors while reinforcing your skin’s natural defense system. And it does so with the combined strength of the NUTRILITE™ Hair, Skin And Nails Complex Tablet and the ARTISTRY Skin Nutrition™ Multi-Defense UV Protect SPF50+ sunscreen, both of which fulfill a two-fold process in keeping your skin healthy and safe.
First, the Hair, Skin and Nails Complex Tablet nourishes your skin (along with your hair and nails) with the B-vitamin Biotin and Vitamin C from Acerola cherries, which helps improve its condition and growth, respectively. Then, the Multi-Defense UV Protect SPF50+ sunscreen shields it from UV rays, pollution, and other daily stressors with the Prevent Complex (a blend of NUTRILITE™-grown Acerola cherries, Australian Daisy and blackberries that enhances the skin’s natural defense system), NUTRILITE™-grown White Chia seed, and antioxidants from other various NUTRILITE™-grown plants.
A go-to for people who enjoy the outdoors and/or want to enhance their skin’s health. It also helps that the Multi-Defense UV Protect SPF50+ sunscreen, just like every ARTISTRY™ Skin Nutrition product, follows the ARTISTRY Clean promise and formulation, meaning it is vegan, soap-free, and contains NO minerals, parabens, sulfate, surfactants, phthalates, or animal-derived ingredients; thus, making it safe for various skin types to use.
