Seven Inclusive Health Benefits to be Thankful for This Thanksgiving

November is the month where we all pause to be thankful for the things that make our life better every day. We're all lucky enough to live in a world where there can be so many amazing things in our life – and no we're not just talking about your skin care regimen. However, this November, there are seven amazing components of Inclusive Health™ that we're particularly thankful for at Murad. Here's our list. What's on your Thankful list this year? Tell us on Facebook or @muradcares.

1. Pomegranate Power!
Antioxidants are the key to healthy skin. While UV rays, toxins and pollutants increase the number of free radicals in your system that can damage your skin, antioxidants fight those free radicals to ensure healthy, youthful looking skin. Pomegranates are an amazing source of antioxidant power, both as part of a topical skin care treatment as well as part of a healthy skin diet. This November, we're thankful for delicious, nutritious and skin-perfecting pomegranate.

Recommended Product: Vitalic® Pomegranate Skin Care Regimen
In addition to adding antioxidant-rich foods to your Thanksgiving (and daily) diet, treat your skin topically with pomegranate-powered skin care products from the Murad Vitalic collection.

Customer Review
"This regimen is unlike anything else I’ve purchased. I really do notice a difference in the size of my pores. At 28 years old, I still break out but also at times battle dryness. This is the perfect product for both problems. I especially love the moisturizer. it’s the perfect balance for my type of skin." AdrienneRN, Oregon

2. Bikram Yoga
Bikram yoga is increasingly making its way off of the West Coast and major urban environments and into locations all over the country (and the world). We love this workout because it not only helps improve physical strength and health but also helps to reduce stress dramatically. Just remember that Birkam Yoga (or hot yoga as it's often called) requires its own skin care regimen adjustments as well!

Recommended Product: Murad Clarifying Body Spray
If you're undertaking a Bikram yoga practice, you're likely to be at risk for back and body acne breakouts from the long period of time that you'll be sweating in an enclosed space. Murad Clarifying Body Spray combats acne breakouts without requiring you to shower immediately.

Customer Review
"Unfortunately my 30′s marked the start of severe breakouts on my chest, arms and back. I began using Clarifying Body Spray over the winter and this has been the first summer in a long time I was not embarrassed to go sleeveless. Thank you Murad! Please, never discontinue this product. The formula works and the application is ingenious." seabee, Pennsylvania

3. The Murad Skin Deep Blog
That's right! We're being thankful for our own blog! The Murad team works hard to research and provide you with up-to-date and useful information about skin care, Inclusive Health and how to be better every day. We're proud of their content and their effort. We hope you'll share the articles and content that you find on this blog and help others learn more about the Murad vision and skin care solutions.

4. Home Spa Day
We think everybody should treat themselves to a day at the spa, but we think that it's just as important to find time for yourself to enjoy a home spa day. It can be an affordable, relaxing and time-beneficial way to not only improve your skin's health but also to improve your stress level and overall well-being. Want some tips on how to enjoy a home spa day? We've got them!

5. Retinol!
Not every skin care ingredient is created equally, and in the world of ant-aging skin care Retinol stands alone at the top of the mountain. Retinol is the most clinically-successful ingredient for boosting the production and strength of skin-firming collagen. We're thankful for this ingredient that visibly makes skin more youthful looking.

Recommended Product: Murad Time Release Retinol Concentrate for Deep Wrinkles
This Retinol-based anti-wrinkle treatment not only uses the ingredient that we're most thankful for but also concentrates your application so that you most effectively address your deepest wrinkles, precisely.

Customer Review
"I love using this on clients because they see results so quickly. Wrinkles are instantly less visible, and the smaller the wrinkle, the quicker they dissolve. If you’re looking for quick anti-wrinkle results, do not hesitate to buy this. It WILL work for you." Maci, Arkansas

6. Men Who Care About Skin Care
Skin care isn't gender specific! Men's skin care makes a huge difference in self-confidence, health and daily satisfaction in life. This Thanksgiving season, we're thankful for the men who care about skin care.

Recommended Product: Murad Man® Regimen
Murad doesn't leave the men out! Murad Man is a simple, three-step skin care regimen that soothes shaving irritation and leads to healthy skin that's better every day.
