I get asked a lot about my beauty secrets: the secret recipe for weight loss, the magic ingredient for clear skin or to stave off the signs of aging. Usually, I shy away from the fix-all way of thinking. With weight loss and health concerns, there is definitely no one thing that makes all the difference (though those dark leafies come pretty close). But with skincare, I have to break my own rule… There IS a secret to beautiful skin, and that is…
OIL.
A child of the 80’s and 90’s, I grew up fearing oils. We bought oil-free everything when it came to skincare, and of course, that was mirrored in our eating, as we were taught that fat-free was the way to go. Man, were we ever wrong.
