As women, our feelings of self-confidence are uniquely and intricately attached to our skin and our complexion – after all, it is the “face” that we show the world. The cosmetic industry is built around this connection, and we have been taught to cover up our “flaws” instead of figuring out the root of the problem, in fact, we spend billions of dollars every year, doing so.

It is important to remember that a beautiful complexion is not just skin deep – our skin shows the story of what is going on inside of us – whether it is stress, lack of nutrition, fatigue, or dehydration, our skin will show us. Think of a plant – the first indication that it needs water is its droopy leaves. It may revive a bit if you spray some water on its surface, but in order to restore the plant to life, you have to water its roots.

Paying attention to what your skin is telling you, is one of the best ways to listen to your body. So if you have skin concerns, chances are you need to look beyond the surface to discover what is really going, our skin requires both internal and external support and nutrition.

When we created Vienne, we wanted it to be an experience, not only moisturizer, but to be food for your skin and your soul as well. With this in mind, we added fragrant essential oils that will not only improve your skin, but also have the ability to work as aromatherapy, to relax you and calm your skin.

It is important that you feed your skin from the inside as well – proper nutrition, hydration and rest, will rejuvenate your skin from within. We not only want to help you care for your skin on the outside, we want to give you tools to care for your skin from the inside out.

With this in mind, you can check back each Saturday for information, tips and tricks to help you on your journey to beautiful and radiant skin. We want to hear from you, what do you do to care for your skin?
