Product Overload

I'm always amazed when people complain about the efficaciousness of their beauty products. It's as though we expect the regimen of exfoliater, cleanser, toner, moisturizer, serum, and so forth to miraculously give us a perfect complexion. But in reality, the balance (or lack thereof) of retinoids and antioxidants can make your skin insanely sensitive and actually be counterproductive. So, when the problem is that you've got too many products to choose from, what do you do? The solution lies in restraint. With beauty products, it's not always, "the more the merrier." Quite the contrary, in fact. Choose a few items you know your skin type needs and definitely read all of the ingredients. Or, to make it easier, opt for products that are sold as a system. You'll save money, not to mention lots of skin irritation!

The Silk Factor

I have had the opportunity to try endless products that claim they all work miracles. This product is amazing. I have been using it for about three weeks and my skin is firmer, the flaking is gone, and my skin feels like silk. One of the great features about this product is the versatility. I can use it as a day cream by leaving it on for three minutes and then using warm water to remove it, or I can use it as a night cream and leave it on all night. It is also a great primer before you apply your foundation.It is not at all thick or heavy. This cream is not oily at all. I LOVE this product!!

The “Red” Star in Valentine’s Day!

Valentine's Day is here and women should be prettier and more glowing than ever! Spruce yourself up and be the "Red" star of your loved one! Try this: cleanse your face deeply with a face scrub and then apply a face mask in the morning. Before going out, continue applying a hydrating cream and massage gently with your fingertips. Conclude the treatment with an elegant eye cream to erase the dark circles around the eye area.

You'll be gorgeous and looking like an angel! And your loved one will keep his eyes on you all night! Happy Valentine’s Day!

Your Skin Works Through the Night

Skin regenerates and repairs itself throughout the night. Always cleanse the skin very thoroughly at night and reapply the serum you use in the morning. This will make your intensive skin care program more effective. Then apply a night cream that is suitable for your skin type.

Fun Face Product!

This product is helpful and fun all at the same time! Remember when you were a kid, and you liked to peel Elmer's Glue off of your hands? (Come on...you know you did it!) This product goes onto your skin, and tightens and brightens your face! Your skin feels so smooth and healthy! When the peel is ready to be peeled off, you can have fun peeling away, just like you did with the glue when you were a kid! I LOVE this product, and I reccommend it to family and friends all the time! You should try it out too!

Wow!!

I work on my feet all day at Walgreens and dance competitively. I have always had problems getting my feet soft and beautiful. I have spent so much money on pedicures, home spas, tonics, creams, scrapers....... you name it, I have tried it. They all end up in the garbage. Well, not my pedicurist; I just stopped going. When I tried a sample of the Repair Balm I knew it was different. My feet were instantly better. The calluses were already softer. I was hooked. I use my Repair Balm once a day and I love showing my feet off in my latin shoes. No more panty hose to hide my heels. I can't wait to try the Express Pedicure!!!!

Give Back Your Skin's Moisture

All skin types need to be protected against the loss of moisture and the harmful effects of pollution. Apply a protective day cream if you have normal skin or a light moisturizing emulsion if you have oily or combination skin.

And a Little Bit of Chocolate

I've been on a self-imposed hiatus from chocolate since my teen years (a bad case of acne and tons of teen magazines kept my cravings at bay!). But recently, I've been reading studies proving that not only is chocolate NOT bad for your skin, it's actually good for your health. (And, in case no one's ever told you: If you're a healthy person on the inside, that's normally reflected in your skin.) So, which kind of chocolate is good for you? And how much? Opt for dark chocolates; they contain incredibly powerful antioxidants called flavonoids, which keep cholesterol from sticking to your arteries. But, remember, one little square of pure dark chocolate a day will get the job done. And, no, brownies don't count!

This is a GREAT Toner!

I've been using this toner now for about a month...when the bottle ran out, it's the first time in a LONG time I actually went out and bought another bottle! The smell is great, but it's nothing compared to how it evens out my skin, and makes me feel refreshed! (The smell helps your wake up in the morning too!)My makeup has never looked better!
