The liver, the body's primary organ of detoxification, is easily overburdened by modern life. Decreased efficiency of the liver requires that the other organs of elimination--such as the skin--have to work harder to keep up with the cleansing needs of the body.

When the liver is not functioning optimally, we see skin conditions--acne, eczema, and other rashes--arise as the skin tries to compensate. Thus when we see these skin conditions arise, we should think about doing a liver cleanse and supporting elimination through the digestive tract.   Alterative Tea and Castor Oil Packs are effective tools to support liver detoxification.  

Herbs can also be used to soothe irritated skin while the internal cause is being addressed. Try an Oatmeal or Chamomile tea bath, or apply an herb from the Herbal first Aid Kit .
