Allergy Blend from Jordan Essentials

Allergy Season is here in Houston! Jordan Essentials Allergy Blend is a must have. Check out this information from our blog

Respiratory distress from seasonal or triggered allergies are all too common. In fact, a recent study estimated that allergic rhinitis (hay fever) affects around 30% of all adults in the U.S. and as many as 40% of children, and this number is increasing each year! In fact, the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America reports that allergies are the 6th leading cause of chronic illness in the U.S.

For some, the aggravation of allergies is an everyday nightmare. Allergic reactions occur when the immune system reacts to environmental triggers that are normally harmless to most other people. When this happens, the immune system recognizes a particular trigger, or allergen, as harmful and sends signals to the body to create antibodies to fight it. Reactions that occur may include inflammation of the skin, sinuses, digestive system, and/or airways.

Although not typically fatal, allergies cause a great deal of discomfort and stress to those who suffer from them. Sinus swelling, headaches, reduced energy, nasal discomfort, excessive mucus, coughing, chest pain, joint swelling, difficulty breathing, and reduced quality of sleep are just a few of the common symptoms of allergies. But what can be done to support the body in healing, alleviating symptoms, and returning life to one of joy, energy, and vitality?

In some cases, the use of essential oils can offer some relief and encourage a healthy immune response. For allergies, a combination of three properties of oils offer the best results, because they address all key facets of the allergic reaction in the body. Those are anti-allergenic, antihistamine, and steroidal (reduce inflammation). Jordan Essentials Allergy Blend offers all three properties with its carefully blended combination of Frankincense, Lavender, Lemon, and Peppermint Essential Oils.

Frankincense is often called the “King” of essential oils because it has so many powerful constituents and can support many body systems. In this case, Frankincense is included in the Allergy Blend because of its anti-allergenic and steroidal properties. Frankincense supports healthy cell regeneration and may help reduce the body’s reaction to the allergen in question. It also has been known to be highly effective in reducing inflammation.

Lavender and Lemon Essential Oils are also added to the Jordan Essentials Allergy Blend for their antihistamine qualities, in addition to the many other benefits these oils offer. Lavender calms and soothes the inflammation while Lemon stimulates opening of the airways.

Peppermint Essential Oil contains menthol, a stimulating constituent that helps open airways, reduce inflammation, stimulate blood flow, and encourage healthy communication between the cells.

Jordan Essentials Allergy Blend is also a wonderful option for non-allergy situations, too! Not only does it smell amazing, it is a great choice for additional support any time you want to support deep breathing and healthy airways. Singers love using this blend before performing, athletes love this blend for excellent oxygen flow during a workout, and moms love this blend to help their loved ones breathe better at night while sleeping during cold and flu season. Jordan Essentials Allergy Blend works beautifully when paired with Jordan Essentials Immune Blend and/or Jordan Essentials Resistance Blend during those times when you’re really feeling under the weather and need some additional immune support.

Or, just enjoy using it for no other reason than that it smells so good!

Jordan Essentials Allergy Blend comes in a convenient, perfectly diluted Roll On or Spray and is recommended for ages 3 and up. Consult your doctor or healthcare professional if symptoms persist or worsen, and be sure to double check with your doctor before using if you are pregnant, nursing, or taking any medications.

Skincare Tips for Oily Skin

Oily skin is the result of overactive sebaceous glands in the skin producing an excess of sebum, giving the skin a glossy appearance. Where this does have some benefits such as locking in natural moisture, reducing the risk of wrinkles as we age, it also can increase the risk of acne and other skin blemishes… and often isn’t the most desirable situation for our skin.

Some suffer from oily skin in the T-Zone area of the face, primarily the forehead, nose area, and chin. Others suffer from oily skin over the whole face. But what can be done if you suffer from oily skin? Here are our top tips for caring for oily skin.

DEEP CLEANSING

If you suffer from oily skin, one of the best things you can do is regular cleansing. Regular cleansing helps remove excess sebum from the skin, while also removing dirt and toxins that may accumulate, increasing the risk of acne. In extreme cases, cleansing twice and even three times daily is recommended. For cleansing oily skin, choose from Jordan Essentials Gentle Foaming Cleanser, Jordan Essentials Gentle Cleanser, Jordan Essentials Complexion Bar (especially if you suffer from acne along with your oily skin), and Jordan Essentials Activated Charcoal Soap. All Jordan Essentials cleansers are carefully formulated to help maintain a healthy skin pH balance with gentle ingredients that deep clean without any harmful, harsh, or toxic ingredients.

REGULAR EXFOLIATING

More than any other skin type, oily skin benefits from consistent and regular exfoliating. If you suffer from oily skin, start a routine of adding this step to your skincare regimen at least once and preferably two times per week. Exfoliating with Jordan Essentials Gentle Exfoliant or Jordan Essentials Cucumber Spa Polish can help smooth the skin, remove dead skin cells caused by the excess sebum production, and help avoid breakouts.

DON’T SKIP THE FACE MASK

Weekly face masks with Jordan Essentials Detoxifying Clay Mask or Jordan Essentials Purifying Charcoal Mask greatly benefit oily skin. Masks go deeper on cleaning to pull toxins and impurities from the pores while also removing excess sebum from the skin. The key with oily skin is to gently remove the excess oil while still supporting a healthy skin balance, and a great way to do that is with the gentle and effective ingredients found in Jordan Essentials’ Masks.

TONE THAT SKIN

Daily toning with Jordan Essentials Toner Mist after cleansing, exfoliating, and a mask treatment will help in eliminating excess oil and banishing dirt from the skin.

DON’T SKIP THE MOISTURIZER

Contrary to popular belief, oily skin does still need moisturized. Excess sebum on the skin does not mean that the skin has a proper moisture balance, and Jordan Essentials Acne Support Moisturizer with Willow Bark Extract, Daily Moisturizer, or Red Wine Moisturizer will gently moisturize and help balance the skin. Stripping the skin of moisture will only encourage the sebaceous glands to produce more sebum, which counteracts everything you are trying to achieve. Instead of stripping the skin of moisture, following the JE regimen followed by JE Moisturizer will support a healthy sebum level in the skin.

WORK WITH YOUR JE CONSULTANT

The skin is a living organ and is ever-changing. Seasonal changes, hormonal changes, stressful situations, environmental changes, and diet changes can all affect our skin in many ways. Sometimes our skin needs a little extra support in one area or another, and Jordan Essentials has a wide selection of options for every situation. Be sure to work closely with your JE Consultant so he/she can assist you in finding the perfect combination that you need.
