Hyaluronic Acid = Hydration

Hyaluronic acid is a natural component of this skin. It forms an invisible film on the skin which binds moisture providing protection from the skin drying out. It lends the skin volume, smoothness and suppleness. Over the course of life, the level of Hyaluronic acid in the skin falls. This leads to poorer water binding capabilities, a loss of elasticity & an increased formation of dryness lines. Using Hyaluronic acid on the skin will help it appear firm, smooth & dryness lines will appear reduced.

I have very dry lips & I tend to bite them a lot. I recently started using this balm with hyaluronic acid & it has been helping my lips stay hydrated & plump. If you have dry lips like mine try a brown sugar & honey scrub, it will remove the dead skin & help you get softer lips.

Charcoal Love Forever

What is Activated Charcoal?

A well known antidote as it adsorbs most organic toxins, chemicals and poisons before they can harm the body.

Activated charcoal is estimated to reduce absorption of poisonous substances up to 60%.

Toxins are attracted to activated charcoal like me to Krispy Kreme donuts.

Anti-Aging and Detoxification

Activated charcoal’s ability to absorb toxins means that some believe it is an effective detoxification agent and anti-aging treatment. It can also help reduce allergies and health issues that may cause damage to your skin & body.

P.S. This is not the kind of charcoal you BBQ with….

Please let me know whether you appalled or fascinated

Everyone responds differently to different doses so make sure you ask your doctor before trying.

Fluids

Today I want to talk about the fluids I have been using on my clients. I’ve noticed such dramatic results on clients who use these fluids at home & I wanted to share this amazing product with you. There are over 10 types of fluids full of high dose active ingredients for every skin type & skin condition. These fluids are highly concentrated & produce convincing results you can see & feel. Babor fluids are applied in quick succession & massaged into the skin. Fluids are used in all of our facials & we also sell the fluids in sets so you can continue treatment at home. The longer the treatment the more intensive & long-lasting the results.

Shea Terra Organics

Back in 2012 I ordered the Shea Terra Mamas Gold Stretchmark oil & shea butter. Flash forward to 2014 & the owner (Tammie) of Shea Terra contacted me thru LinkedIn! Crazy right? I was so excited & I told her how much I loved her products & how they helped me so much throughout my pregnancy.

Below are some new products that I’ve received from Shea Terra & I wanted to share them with you  🙂

Rose Hips Black Soap Deep Pore Facial Wash

The first thing I want to talk about is the Rose Hips Black Soap Deep Pore Facial Wash. It’s like a mini light peel for your skin, makes your skin tingle. I love how it made my skin feel so soft & moisturized, I am very pleased with this product.

Ingredients:

spring water, Yoruban black soap (cocoa pod ash, plaintain peel ash, palm kernels, camwood bark), certified organic sunflower oil, certified organic coconut oil, potassium hydroxide (electrocuted salts- what makes oil into soap), certified organic rose hips oil, Kalahari mineral salts

Rwandan Maracuja Oil (cold pressed)

The next product Tammie sent me is called Maracuja oil. I’ve never heard of this oil & I’ve been missing out big time ( this stuff is better than argan oil). Maracuja oil contains higher amounts of antioxidants than argan oil & it has a high content of essential fatty acid which will do wonders for your skin. I’ve been using it every night on my face & I’m going to start using it on my scalp because I need all the moisture I can get.

Ingredients: 

100% pure maracuja oil

 

Some Benefits of African Black Soap & Maracuja Oil Are :

Improves skin tone

Evens out skin tone

Reduces Inflammation

Has deep cleansing action

Helps heal acne

Exfoliates Skin

High in antioxidants

Makes your skin radiant

 

I’ve been a long-time customer & I hope you can visit her website soon !

Neck Neglect

The skin on the neck is an extension of the face so using products on this area is very important. After all, who wants to have smooth skin on their face and a dry, saggy neck? The neck area does not have fatty tissues, making the skin less elastic. As a result, the skin in this delicate zone can become far more wrinkled.

Most women know to apply moisturizer daily and nightly to the neck and many do. A woman will typically rub moisturizer onto her face and then whatever is left over on to the neck. But I say slather on the moisture to your neck, treat your neck the same way you treat your face you will see a huge difference.

Also sunscreen is considered to be the best anti-aging product in the world, since the #1 cause of premature skin aging is UV rays given off from the sun. Sunscreen needs to be applied generously in order to offer full sun protection.

Extend your daily exfoliant, whether it’s with a cleansing brush or a glycolic acid, all the way down to the top of your chest. Sloughing away the dead-skin layer allows active ingredients to absorb faster.

Whatever you do to your face also do to your neck & chest
