Crystal is the almond butter to our jelly. She helps us coordinate content from across media streams, writes genius posts and newsletters from that content, and even takes photos of recipes or reviews books & products when we're pressed for time. She's that 3rd arm we all wish we had; we love her as part of our team and even more on her own media at @wholefedhomestead or her gorgeous, educational & fun blog WholeFedHomestead.com

As an Enneagram 8 and a redhead I’m wildly stubborn and loyal to a fault. I did NOT want to change my beloved skincare routine, and learned a lot as I integrated one product at a time. I’ve been traveling for 38 days and have been through every climate and pressure change possible (repeatedly). Here’s what I recommend:
.
🔥 Use luke warm water. Hot irritates, agitates and dries skin out.
💦 Hydrate! Proper hydration contributes to the body’s ability to detox and moisturize. I have also been using the Rose Water Spray 2-3x/dy too.
🥗 Prioritize nutrient density. Adding broth, collagen, mineral-fish veggies, and healthy fats while minimizing inflammatory foods like grains, low quality dairy, and sugar often immediately relieve inflammation in skin.
🛏 Prioritize sleep! Cellular regeneration happens while we rest, no getting around this. Your face will show when you’re tired!
.
👆Before changing your skin routine, get all these dialed in as much as possible so that you won’t question if something that changes is related to lifestyle or a new product.
.
When I switched to Countertime, I changed one thing at a time. Here’s what I found:
• For combo skin with acne, I recommend avoiding heavy and thick products and make sure to exfoliate. You’ll love the CT Mineral Essence but the Supreme Cream may be occlusive. Use the Cleansing Oil dry but then use water to milk up and wash your face.
• For sensitive or very dry skin, skip products with strong active ingredients until you can test patch. For CT this would be the Radiance Serum and Eye Cream. But, you’ll love the Supreme Cream and Cleansing Oil!
• For dry and normal aging skin, use as recommended. The Collection & soon Regimen is perfect for you!
