How to Treat and Prevent Redness, Inflammation and Irritation

Over-exfoliating is just one way that skin can get irritated.  If you find yourself constantly exfoliating your skin, the first thing you should do is ease up on it.

Once a week or once a month is okay, depending on your skin type.

Next, you need to look at the products used in your skincare routine.

Try incorporating low-tox, organic skincare products like Greenway's organic cinnamon leaf oil into your skincare regime.

Because this is an essential oil, you'll want to make sure you dilute the oil in a carrier oil, like castor oil, before applying to your skin to minimize any burning sensation or irritation caused by the oil coming into direct contact with your skin.
