Skin

Overview

Your skin starts aging when the cells die off faster than the body can replace them. It is estimated that each person sheds approximately 22 kilograms of skin cells in his or her lifetime. Illness, stress, anxiety and depression also add to the aging of the skin. Natura’s homoeopathic remedies can be used to help the body overcome underlying disturbances and restore balance to this vulnerable and sensitive organ.
