✨ Holistic Skincare Series | Part 1: The Gut–Skin Connection ✨

✨ Holistic Skincare Series | Part 1: The Gut–Skin Connection ✨
Let’s talk about something your skin has probably been trying to tell you… it’s talking to your gut. Yep — your skin isn’t just what you see in the mirror; it’s a reflection of what’s happening inside. When your gut is inflamed, sluggish, or out of balance, your skin loves to tattle.
🧠 Here’s the “Science” — Made Simple:
A happy gut = happy skin.
πŸ‘‰ A healthy microbiome helps:
  • Calm inflammation → less redness + fewer breakouts
  • Support detox → clearer pores and smoother texture
  • Balance hormones → more predictable, calmer skin
  • Boost nutrient absorption → that glow-from-within look ✨
An unhappy gut? Think: inflammation, oxidative stress, and a disrupted skin barrier = breakouts, dullness, and flare-ups.
🌿 Let’s Support That Gut–Skin Connection (Naturally!)
1️⃣ Strengthen the Gut Microbiome
Start with your foundation — your gut bacteria!
πŸ’ͺ Life 9 → supports immune + gut balance
πŸ’ NingXia Red → antioxidants that protect the gut + skin
πŸ‹ Lemon Vitality → gentle daily detox
🌿 DiGize Vitality → your digestive BFF (Tarragon, Ginger, Peppermint & more)
2️⃣ Boost Digestion + Detox Pathways
Because slow digestion = sluggish skin.
βš™οΈ Detoxzyme → helps your body actually use what you eat
πŸ’› LiverToneWhole Body Cleanse → give your liver some love
πŸ‹ Lemon Vitality → again, so good for gentle daily cleansing
🌿 Peppermint Vitality → cooling, soothing, and supports digestion
3️⃣ Calm Inflammation from the Inside Out
Less inflammation = calmer, clearer, happier skin.
πŸ’§ Sulfurzyme → supports collagen + healthy skin tissue
🫢 Longevity Softgels → antioxidant powerhouse
🌿 Copaiba Vitality → calms and soothes from the inside out
πŸ’ƒ EndoFlex Vitality → helps balance hormones (a big trigger for skin flare-ups!)
4️⃣ Strengthen the Skin Barrier (Inside + Out)
Once your gut’s balanced, your skin needs the good stuff to thrive.
✨ Topical favorites: Frankincense, Lavender, Geranium, Manuka, or Blue Tansy
πŸ’§ Collagen Peptide Serum → all the retinol-like benefits, no harshness
🌸 Bloom Brightening Cream or ART Intensive Moisturizer → deep hydration, clean ingredients
🌹 Rose Ointment → locks in moisture + protects that barrier (especially in cooler months)
And don’t forget your NingXia Red here too — because when your body actually absorbs its nutrients, your skin glows.
πŸ’« Holistic skincare is more than what you put on — it’s how your whole body works together. When your gut and your skin are in sync, you feel it — balanced, confident, and radiant from the inside out.

Your Liver Deserves a Love Letter

The 14-Day Natural Reset: Support Your Liver and Love Your Energy Again


November is nature’s invitation to slow down and reset. Just like the trees, our bodies crave release — of toxins, stress, and stagnancy. Your liver is the unsung hero that makes that possible, quietly managing over 500 daily functions. Let’s give it some love.

Protocol:
  • Morning: 2 LiverTone™ capsules before breakfast  → Artichoke leaf supports bile flow, milk thistle brings antioxidant protection, and Citrus Fresh™ d-limonene helps activate your detox enzymes.
  • Evening: 1 scoop Whole Body Cleanse™ + 4 oz. NingXia Red® + 8 oz. water. 2 LiverTone™ capsules with dinner. → This blend of baobab fiber, prickly pear, and kombucha-fermented green tea keeps your gut microbiome healthy and binds toxins for elimination.

  • Diffuse Lemon + Rosemary for clarity and cleansing.
πŸ’§ Why it works:
Baobab fiber + polyphenols feed beneficial gut bacteria, while milk thistle’s silymarin protects liver cells. This keeps your body’s natural detox rhythm flowing — so energy returns, skin clears, and your mood lifts.

Meet Shari Placko

 

Hi, I'm Shari – Welcome!

In 2015, everything changed. I was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition and found myself overwhelmed, exhausted, and searching for something better—something that supported my wellness instead of just managing symptoms.

That’s when I found Young Living.

What started as a personal journey toward feeling better naturally has turned into something so much more. I discovered clean, plant-based products that made a real difference in how I felt—but even more than that, I found a community. A group of people who lifted each other up, shared their stories, and empowered one another to live well and live intentionally.

Now, almost a decade later, Young Living is not only part of my daily routine—it’s part of my heart. I love helping others ditch toxins, feel their best, and discover simple, sustainable ways to support their health and homes.
Whether you're here for oils, supplements, clean living tips, or just curious where to start—you’re in the right place. I’m so glad you’re here, and I can’t wait to walk alongside you on your wellness journey.

Let’s do this, together. πŸ’›
