Whether you want to look your best for a special occasion or simply wish to add to your normal skincare routine, skin detox may be what you're looking for. This type of detox is a more natural attempt at remedying the skin of issues like wrinkles and discoloration. If this sounds like something you're interested in, you may want to try these seven, at-home detox methods.



Antioxidants
Several skin-healthy antioxidants are green tea extract, Idebenone, Resveratrol, and Vitamin C. Possible benefits to implementing these antioxidants into your routine are a lower risk of skin cancer and the reduction of skin inflammation. Your skin will also build up collagen at the same time.

A great skin detox product to try with antioxidants is Dr. Brandt's XYY Face Cream, $59.



Sea Salt
Sea salt is now thought to lead to a stronger immune system, better heart health, and emotional well-being, but did you know about its rumored benefits for the skin? A cleansing bath with sea salt may reduce the inflammation and itchiness associated with serious skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. The magnesium, calcium, and other vitamins and minerals contained in sea salt are believed to aid in drawing out toxins, reducing the appearance of pores, reducing fluid retention, and sloughing of your dead skin layers.

A stellar at-home sea salt skin detox to try is SheaMoisture's Coconut & Hibiscus Dead Sea Salt Muscle Relief Mineral Soak, $12.99.



Activated Charcoal
This natural skin detox method is porous, so it's more prone to absorbing and holding toxins from the skin. If your skin is looking rough, puffy, and discolored, an activated charcoal solution may do you wonders.

For an activated charcoal detox, try the Eminence Balancing Masque Duo, $54.



Kale
Kale is held in high regard as a nutritionally dense food packed full of antioxidants. In addition to lowering cholesterol and containing cancer-fighting properties, kale may do wonders for the skin. It contains lutein which may lead to reduced wrinkles and a more even skin tone.

Try the Kale Detox Deep Cleansing Face Wash, $10, by Pacifica, for a kale-based detox.



Soft Clay
Soft clay is thought to contain high absorption properties, which is ideal for drawing out metals and other toxins that accumulate in the skin. To detox your skin with soft clay, try a soft clay bath or face mask.

The Ren Invisible Pore Detox Mask, $19, will detoxify the skin, minimize pores, and reduce redness.



Algae
Algae is recognized to be a natural skin remedy with detoxifying properties. It's rich in minerals and antioxidants that are likely to make your skin feel healthier following detoxification.

A useful algae skin detox is Coola ER Fresh Relief Face Serum, $68.



Seaweed
Seaweed has skin detoxifying properties in similar ways to algae. It is dense in minerals and antioxidants and is also highly moisturizing.

For a knockout seaweed detox product, try the Seaweed Bath Co. Purifying Detox Facial Bar, $7.99.
