Hello Queen Victoria!
Omg! Thank you so much for all the goodness and the amazing skincare advice you give to everyone! You are the best. I started using some of your products a couple of years ago when your products first appeared on the scene and I have to say, I was highly impressed. I began using your facial cleanser and pore reducer, then I started drinking your Skinny Detox Tea that helped me
shed over 50 pounds! I get your newsletters all the time, but I have to admit that I don’t always have the time to read them. I’m apologizing for this, but most sincerely, I am so impressed with all of your amazing products that I am not sure which one will correct my immediate concern. My skin is becoming extremely dry lately. I know age plays a role in your skin becoming dry, but it is to the point where I have to saturate my skin in lotion. Using a lotion is one thing, but is
there something that I can saturate my skin with that will help me look younger, reduce dry, crepey skin you get under on your face, around your arms, on your neck, and around your eyes? I will be so ever grateful if you can lead me to a few dry skin remedies that will help give my skin radiance and a more youthful look.
Sincerely ~ Jolene

What Is Dry, Crepey Skin?
Crepey skin is your body’s response to low levels of elastin and collagen. These are proteins in your skin that allow your skin to stretch and contract. As you enter your 30s, protein production in your skin begins to drop, resulting in thinner skin that will eventually begin to droop, sag, and wrinkle. On parts of your body where the skin is constantly being stretched and pulled, dry crepey skin is more likely to form.
What Causes Dry, Crepey Skin?
Dehydration
 There are a number of reasons why a person’s skin becomes dry and crepey. The number one reason is dehydration. Your body requires a certain amount of water each day and when it doesn’t get it, it
starts to retract and become dry, brittle, and wrinkled. Most people who are not active find they are not thirsty. They also think that drinking coffee, tea, beer, soda, and juice is the same as drinking water. This is not true.
Drinks that have caloric value is considered food and is processed differently in your body than pure, fresh water. Water is needed in every system in your body. Water regulates your hormones, helps to keep your blood pressure normal, your lungs working at full capacity, and your nervous system responding properly to brain signals. Your cells play a role in hydration also. Healthy cells are able to pull in water and release water quickly and efficiently. As cells age, their ability to do this
is decreased. Dehydration can be happening at a cellular level.
What is Cellular Dehydration?
Cellular dehydration is caused when your cells no longer process water efficiently. Your cells are like people. They let water in and let water out. This process is called cellular respiration. As you age, the ability for your cells to process water slowly deteriorates. The ability of your cells to use water effectively is also determined by the type of fluids you drink. Coffee, tea, soda, and juice and other liquids you drink that have calories, have ingredients that cause a diuretic
effect. Diuretics make your body release water. So, if your drinking tons of coffee during the day, soda pop, tea, and juice, your body isn’t able to get enough water. Water is the source of life. Without we all would perish. The best way to get your cells to respond better and help your body to be hydrated is to drink pure, fresh, water.
You Are What You Eat! – Certain Foods Cause Crepey Skin
 Though this saying is cliche, its true. If you eat dehydrating foods, your skin will be and look dehydrated. What are dehydrated foods? Foods that have a lot of preservatives. These
preservatives are often loaded with salt and salt or sodium is a natural dehydration culprit. Salt was used in the early American settlements before refrigeration to keep foods like meat fresh. It was used in canning and preserving foods to last during the long, cold, snowy winters. Food hasn’t changed much since early times. It just has gotten worse. Many of the chemicals in processed foods to make them taste good, prevent our body from absorbing water.
Foods like chips, crackers, cereal, cookies, candy, fries, foods with tons of fat and sodium; nachos, burgers, donuts. A diet too acidic (caused by eating foods that cause acid in your system) and includes not enough alkaline foods (these are foods that heal your body) will cause dry, crepey skin.
Unprotected Sun Exposure
 Tanning is one of the most expensive American past times. Why expensive? Because of all the money, you will have to spend on dermatology visits and skincare products to get rid of your overly sun-exposed
problem skin. Dark spots, uneven skin tone, skin cancer and more are due to not protecting your skin while in the sun or overexposure to the sun. You may use creams that protect you from UV light, but it may not be enough.
Smoking
Smoking is another reason why your skin could be dry and crepey. Experts say there are over 4,000 different chemical compounds in a cigarette and many of them you will find in your weed-and-feed, glue, nail polish remover, ammonia that causes asthma, formaldehyde used in embalming dead bodies, and more. All of these chemicals harm your cells and your cells capacity to utilize water.
Fair Skin
 The lighter your skin, the more prone you are to dry, crepey skin. Darker skinned people experience less dry, crepey skin because they have more melanin. Melanin is a substance derived from certain cells in your
body. The more melanin your skin has, the more it is protected against damaging UV light. Your genetics dictate the amount of melanin your skin produces. Fair skin has less melanin, therefore, less protection from the sun’s damaging rays. Fair skin is also thinner skin and prone to wrinkling quicker.
7 Tips To Prevent Dry, Crepey Skin & Look Forever Young!
Omg!!! Water helps skincare products work better!!! I hate the taste of water! Yuk! But, I drink at least a gallon daily! How do I do it? I infuse my water with fresh fruit like lemon, lime, and berries. I sometimes add a little stevia to my water for a natural sweetness. Skin that is crepey is lacking hydration so drink up!
Tip # 1 – Drink More Water
 Now that you know the importance of drinking water, create a water drinking schedule that can fit in with your lifestyle. drinking at least 64 ounces of water daily is great to start, and of course,
drink more if you exercise regularly. If you don’t like the taste of water, add a few lemon or lime slices to your water. These fruits acidic on the outside of your body, but alkaline on the inside and will help repair skin cells with their powerful antioxidants and phytochemicals. If you can’t remember to drink water during the day because you are so busy, there are some really cool apps you can download on your phone to help remind you to drink the clear stuff!
Tip # 2 – Fire Your Old Diet…Today!
They should have written a song about carbs being a girl’s best friend, not diamonds! Ha! I think a woman would trade her diamonds for carbs if she is hungry enough! Putting humor aside, it is really important that you cut down on the starchy carbs like bread, pasta, crackers and all junk foods. Make them a once-in-a-while-indulgence. Eat more green veggies, protein, and fresh low-glycemic fruit. Foods that are still alive, like green veggies and fruits, will help our skin tighten
and reverse dry, crepey skin faster. Eating this way will also help skin care products absorb into your skin better and work at an accelerated rate.
Tip # 3 – Stay Sun Protected But Get Your ‘Ds”
 Laying out and enjoying the sun feels amazing, but make sure you keep you sun goddess sun worshiping to a limit and make sure you protect your skin from the unhealthy, skin-damaging UV rays from the sun. You need
vitamin D big time, so take a supplement daily. Vitamin D is important for calcium and magnesium to enter your bones. Healthy bones help to increase healthy muscles which help to tone and tighten your body. You will look healthier and younger when your lean mass (bone and muscle weight) is increased. Women freak out when they hear this. But, if you increase your lean mass you can actually have a younger looking face with fewer wrinkles.
Tip # 4 – Avoid Extreme Temperatures
 Dry, crepey skin is worsened by extreme temperatures like wind and cold in the winter and tons of air-conditioning in the summer. These conditions can cause dry, chapped, wrinkled, crepey skin.
It’s almost impossible to avoid, so making sure the next tips are incorporated will ensure more beautiful wrinkle-free, moisture-rich skin.
Tip # 5 – Moisturize, Moisturize, Moisturize!
Dry skin care starts with moisturizers, the most effective remedy for dry skin. Generally, moisturizers are classified under 2 categories based on the way they provide dry skin care. The first category includes moisturizers that provide dry skin care just by preserving the moisture within the skin e.g. Vaseline. These moisturizers are relatively inexpensive and are readily available (even at grocery stores). The second category includes moisturizers that work by drawing moisture from
the environment and supplying it to the skin. This is a very effective way of dry skin care in humid conditions. The moisturizers that provide dry skin care in this way are also called humectants. For proper dry skin care, you must use a non-greasy type of moisturizer. Choose a moisturizer that contains ingredients like hyaluronic acid, because hyaluronic acid is known to help your skin pull in 100x more moisture from the environment and from the water you drink so that your skin looks young,
plump, and dewy.
Tip # 6 -Glycolic Acid A Skin Miracle Worker
 Glycolic acid helps your skin restore its pH balanced so that your skin can experience increased moisture, as well as high levels of free acid. The best products integrate antioxidants such as Vitamin
A, C, E, and fruit extracts that fight damaged skin caused by factors in the environment. Glycolic acid and transfer water moisture from the environment into your skin! How cool is that? Way cool! It can exfoliate your skin naturally. It is like getting a $200 chemical peel every day without the expense, time, and pain (chemicals can be painful, ouch!) The products available that state they include glycolic acid may range in the percent of concentration and also PH levels. Products that
contain glycolic acid along with other natural skin healing and wrinkle freeing substances are the best to purchase. Organic skincare lines are best when choosing your skin care products because they contain ingredients that can also make sure glycolic acid is absorbed in maximum levels.
Tip # 7 – Embrace Watermelon Extract
 Watermelon may be a high glycemic index fruit, but it can have a huge impact on the quality of your skin. It is filled with tons of water so it makes your skin able to absorb water and moisture better. As
we get older our skin becomes thinner and less able to recover from damage. Our body is full of ‘free radicals’ that damage cells over time and can be attributed to the cause of aging skin. Watermelon is full of antioxidants such as lycopene and also vitamin C and A which helps reduce these free radicals that can slow down the signs of aging. The consumption of Vitamin A can encourage the growth of collagen and elastin cells that helps your skin stay young and supple.
BONUS TIP #1 – Become An Organic Shea Butter Queen Like Cleopatra
Cleopatra, the world’s most renown queen on the planet, used shea butter to create seductively soft, wrinkle-free skin. To have radiant, youthful, dry and crepey free skin living in Egypt, one of the driest countries on earth, is a miracle alone. Cleo obviously had a secret that her adversaries didn’t know about and it is shea butter. Shea butter has the ability to:
 Moisturize: The concentration of natural vitamins and fatty acids in Shea butter makes it incredibly nourishing and moisturizing for the skin. It is often
used to remedy dry skin and to help protect the skin’s natural oils.- Reduce Inflammation: A 2010 study found that due to its cinnamic acid and other natural properties, shea butter was anti-inflammatory. (source) One compound in particular, lupeol cinnamate, was found to reduce skin inflammation and even potentially help avoid skin mutations. This also makes it beneficial for some people with acne.
- Smooth Your Skin: Shea butter aids in the skin’s natural collagen production and contains oleic, stearic, palmitic and linolenic acids that protect and nourish the skin to prevent drying. With long-term use, many people report skin softening and strengthening as well as wrinkle reduction.
BONUS TIP #2 – Be Gentle With Your Skin
Dry, crepey skin shrieks damage! Start incorporating a self-love, self skin-healing ritual that is easy, affordable and is worth the investment of your time. Taking a bath saturated with emollient, moisture enriching soaps and additives that can hydrate and moisturize your skin is one way to pamper your skin and reverse dry, crepey skin.
BONUS TIP #3 – Choose Natural or Organic Skincare Products
When choosing products to improve dry, crepey skin, make sure that the products will help neutralize your skin’s natural
pH level, is a non-detergent product like most soaps. Use Moisturizers that can exfoliate and hydrate your skin and is extremely gentle.
I’ve worked with celebrities for years and they are into anti-aging big time. They will not put a product on their face or body unless they know for sure it will give them this main result: Clear, younger, wrinkle-free skin. They all get professional skin care procedures and this is okay as long as a maintenance product can help the procedure last longer. If it can, then it’s a go, baby!
Tired of crazy wrinkles under your eyes that make you looker older, folds and wrinkles around your mouth, and on your neck? Do you feel way too young for the body you currently have? Then it’s time to TIGHTEN UP!
