SKIN TIP 101 " ARE YOU STILL DRYING IT OUT?"


 Another BAD thing you may be doing to your Skin - Unknowingly, you're Drying it out! You're out too much in harsh Cold Weather - You're using products that have Alcohol in them - Really? Please! No Alcohol on your Skin & don't be Drinking so much of it - That's not too good either, OK? You're also using Hot Water to Cleanse? Ooooh, You are a Recipe for Disaster - You're going to be even Drier & looking even Older! Not a very good way to spend a MERRY CHRISTMAS, is it?
 

SKIN TIP 101 “IT’S TRUE – YOU’RE JUST NOT DRINKING ENOUGH WATER!”


 I don’t mean you should be Drinking a lot of other Liquids like Coke, Coffee or Tea - that doesn’t count! What your Skin really needs is H2 O. It’s true – Lots of Water every Day really will help keep the Wrinkles away – Here’s to Rosier, Healthier Skin – Cheers!

SKIN TIP 101 "OK, IF YOU’RE IN YOUR 50’S , YOU BETTER BE HYDRATING YOUR SKIN!"

   Please don’t think I’m saying “Just Drink more Water!” While that’s crucial at every Age there’s more to it than that. Are you saturating your Skin with a Moisturizer that has Hyaluronic & eating great Skin Foods like Avocado, Almonds, Dark Berries, Acerola Cherries & Oysters? Now your Skin is Drier than ever, make sure you're also slathering on Moisturizer that has Hyaluronic – Day & Night! Keep doing everything you've done, or should have done in your 20's, 30's & 40's, & your Skin is going to just keep lying..... about YOUR Age!

SKIN TIP 101 " IT'S OK TO BE DEFENSIVE NOW - YOU'RE IN YOUR 40'S!"


SKIN TIP 101 " IT'S OK TO BE DEFENSIVE NOW - YOU'RE IN  YOUR 40'S!" SKIN Defensive that is! Do everythIng you did in your 20's & 30's, but now, GET DEFENSIVE. Skin Cell turnover has really slowed down now, so you should add a Product to Motivate Skin to Exfoliate itself. Collagen & Elastin Production  has really slowed down, so MAKE SURE you've added an Anti-aging Serum to your Regime that will tackle that. The BEST Product is one you'll use at Night - In your 40's? Great! Just get Skin Defensive!

Monday, November 12, 2012

SKIN TIP 101 " IF YOU'RE OVER 30, YOU REALLY NEED TO WAKE UP YOUR SKIN'S CELLS!"

As we get Older, our Skin Cells get lazier & don't regenerate as quickly! If you really want your Skin to look Younger, you've got to use a product that will reach down into the Dermis & WAKE UP those lazy Cells . Activate your Skin Cells with a Retinol OR a Glycolic product. Using both is TOO much - Don't do it! Use one as or WITH a Moisturizer when you're Sleeping since both attract the Sun. So..... go to Sleep, but while you're sleeping, Wake up those Cells!

SKIN TIP 101 "I WANT YOU TO KNOW ABOUT PEPTIDES!"


 Did you know they are a group of Amino Acids that help prevent future Wrinkles? They do that because they INHIBIT enzymes that break down the Skin's Structure so Wrinkles can form. They even Motivate your Skin to produce Collagen .... I sure want that, don't you? So, Do YOU have a Cream or an Anti-Aging Serum with Peptides?

SKIN TIP 101 "OK, YOU STILL HAVEN'T DITCHED THAT BAR OF SOAP YET, HAVE YOU?"


 I know old habits are hard to break - even if they're bad habits, right? I sent this Tip before, but I know it still bears repeating! Using Bar Soap to Cleanse your Face is just NO good, but it's like Smoking - Hard to quit, right? You've gotten use to how it feels - Soap makes you FEEL Clean - even though it's  stripping your Skin of Natural Oils, Breaking it out, & making it look OLDER - Ooooh, just that last one alone is enough for me to break the "Soap Habit" - How about you???

SKIN TIP 101 " ARE YOU LOOKING IN THE MIRROR WISHING YOU HAD FULLER LIPS!"

You can't stop the Aging process - but you can Slow the process & learn to care for LIPS in a way that makes you look Younger! Day - Use Moisturizer that has Sunscreen around your Mouth. It protects & helps ward off those lines that sneak up! Night - Use Glycolic Cream around them as a Night Cream - Use a Lip liner in a Natural Color. It keeps Lipstick from bleeding, & makes your Mouth look Fuller - outline just outside the Edge. Use a Lip Plumper - it does make your Mouth appear a little Fuller over time. Lastly, use a Paler color Lipstick with a Thick Shiny Gloss over it ..... a little effort will make a big difference! Here's to Fuller, Sexier Lips!

SKIN TIP 101 " OK - COULD YOU TRY TO TAKE SPECIAL CARE OF YOUR SKIN THIS WEEK PLEASE? "


Why? Because you're getting ready to have too much FUN - at least I hope you are! Tomorrow you're probably going to be piling on a bunch of heavy terrible looking Makeup - You'll eat LOTS of Treats that aren't such a Treat to your Skin. Oh - if that's not enough, you'll stay up way too late because of that great party ...... That's great - just don't forget - you have to especially Cleanse, Moisturize & Protect your Skin now - because Halloween is the only day of the year that you don't care if your SKIN looks really BAD - Boo! Enjoy Friends - I hope you have a fabulous & HAPPY HALLOWEEN !

Monday, October 29, 2012

SKIN TIP 101 " ARE YOU REALLY NORMAL?"


Your Skin anyway, right? What does NORMAL mean anyway? You don’t have a problem with Oil or Breakouts, your Skin is never Dry or Tight & you have Small Pores & very little Breakouts. You probably don't wear heavy Foundation. Still think you're Normal? Great -  but don't think you can be lazy! You still NEED a great Skin Care Regime & you gotta stick with it! OK, want to stay Normal? Keep Cleansing, Moisturizing, & using an Anti-Aging Serum every AM & PM - & don't forget the Sunscreen & the Night Creme!
 

Friday, October 26, 2012

SKIN TIP 101 "ARE YOU DOING EVERYTHING YOU CAN TO DE-STRESS?"


Think about it - Your Under Eye Dark Cirlcles are the darkest & your Skin looks absolutley the most grey & patchy  when you haven't had enough rest! You've stayed up too late - worked to hard, played too hard, etc.... OK, so Work out, Laugh more - get some Sleep - You're sure going to feel better & your Skin? Ooooh, it's really going to look a whole lot better!

SKIN TIP 101 " IT'S OK TO USE A UNDER EYE CONCEALER, IN FACT, YOU SHOULD!"


 Are you working on getting rid of the Dark Circles under your Eyes but want a more Immediate solution? Use a Concealer! A Concealer is also one of the best Anti-Aging products you can buy! It's a must have when it comes to looking Younger, Brighter and Fresher. Under Eye Circles get worse as we "get younger" because the Skin around the Eyes gets even thinner. Use that Serum to attact those Circles, but it's just OK to use a Concealer!

Tuesday, October 23, 2012

SKIN TIP 101 " ARE YOU JUST SCRUBBING TOO HARD?"

Think about it - Overly aggressive cleansing just harms your delicate Skin! If you're using Natural Hydrating Skin Care that nurtures & protects your Skin, your Skin is softened so oil & grime are more easily & more gently washed away. How about that? Scrubbing your Skin? Just Quit that!

Monday, October 22, 2012

SKIN TIP 101 "DID YOU KNOW THAT 30-50% OF US HAVE SENSITIVE SKIN?"

Do you know it's caused by reactions to Preservatives, Fragrances & other irritating Product ingredients like Gasoline by-products? Wow! Harsh Scrubs, rough Washcloths & Products with Alpha Hydroxy & Retinoids can cause problems as well. So, if you have Sensitive Skin or not ..... stay away from these bad ingredients completely & be careful when using Alpha Hydroxy & Retinoids - Like I've said before, whether you have Sensitive Skin or not : READ THE LABEL before you BUY the product!

SKIN TIP 101 "DO YOU KNOW WHY PEPTIDES ARE SO IMPORTANT?"


They're a group of Amino Acids that help prevent future Wrinkles because they INHIBIT Enzymes that break down your Skin's Structure so Wrinkles can form! Did you know they also Motivate your Skin to produce more Collagen? I like that! Ok, so YOU want to lessen the Wrinkles you have & slow down the formation of new ones? You just better be using a product that has Peptides ..... today! 
 

Thursday, October 18, 2012

SKIN TIP 101 " WOULD YOU PLEASE STOP WEARING THAT DARK LIPSTICK?"


 As you "get younger", it just makes you look OLDER! Lips do get Thinner & Thinner says Old, right? You know Dark Colors recede & makes things look Smaller - so why wear a Dark Lipstick color? Just don't do it! Wear a Cool Pink tone in a lighter more Natural looking shade if you're a Cool Skin tone or a lighter Coral tone if you're a Warm Skin tone. Want even a younger look? Use a Lip Plumper to make lips appear Fuller & add some Shiny Gloss to that Pout .... Now, if you just have to do that ghastly Dark Color - Just wait - Halloween is just around the corner - BOO!
 

Tuesday, October 16, 2012

SKIN TIP 101 "DID YOU KNOW THAT LOOSE POWDER CAN BE DAMAGING TO YOUR LUNGS?"


Well, it is - I knew it & Dr. Oz has confirmed it! That loose powder Mineral Foundation you've been using flies up into the Air & over time , it just may scar your lungs! Think about it. Have you noticed the cloud of dust that forms when you dip your Brush into your powder? You can't help but inhale some of it - those little Mineral fragments may look great ON your Skin, but thet're certainly not good for the INSIDE of your body. His advice & Mine? Use a Pressed Powder Mineral Foundation! It's certainly not as messy... and it's so much Healthier!

SKIN TIP 101 "FORGET THOSE GREASY FRIES..... BUT EAT YOUR POTATOES!"

Did you know that a plump, steaming Baked Potato is really good for your Skin? If you eat one Baked Potato (with the skin) you'll get 75% of your daily Copper need.This e...
ssential Mineral works with Vitamin C & Zinc to produce the Elastin fibers that support Skin Structure - Who knew? Too little Copper in your diet can reduce your Skin’s ability to heal & cause it to become Lifeless - we don't want that, do we? Lunch? Hmmmmm .... I'm thinking Baked Potato!
 
 
 

SKIN TIP 101 "WHAT SIZE ARE YOUR PORES?"

OK, let's talk some more about Glycolic ..... Some people just have larger Pores than others. Did you know the first step in reducing their appearance is to use a product that has Glycolic Acid? It ...
gently Exfoliates - which will help unclog your Pores! It will also motivate your Skin to slough off dead Skin Cells more quickly - that helps! Just remember, Glycolic attracts the Sun, so it should be used at Night...... preferably in a Night Cream!
 
 
 

SKIN TIP 101 "OK, DON'T YOU WANT YOUR HANDS TO LOOK AS GOOD AS YOUR FACE?"

 So..... doesn't it make sense to take as good of care of them as you do your Face? Think about it. If you slather your Hands with the same Day Moisturizer & the same...
luscious Night Cream as you do your Face, don't you think that that rough Dry Skin on the back of your Hands will start to look almost as good as the Skin on that Gorgeous Face of yours? It's easy ....... Just remember - Do your Hands every time you do your Face!
 

Thursday, October 11, 2012

SKIN TIP 101 "ARE YOU STILL SCRATCHING YOUR FACE?"

You probably do have some dead dry Skin, but would you please STOP scratching your Face with Rocky Scrubs? How about a product that has an ingredient that motivates your Skin to exfoliate de...eeead dry Skin? That ingredient is GLYCOLIC , & you should use it as a Night Cream, because it attracts the Sun! It will motivate your Skin to Exfoliate on it's own more quickly. It will also help balance the Oil & Dry of your Skin. It's going to do all of this ..... while you sleep! ZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzz

SKIN TIP 101 "ARE YOU GETTING ENOUGH ZINC?"


 You are if you're making Almonds, Brazil Nuts, Wheat Germ & Turkey a big part of your Diet! Did you know that Zinc is an Anti-inflammatory Mineral that WILL calm irritations in the Skin? Are you having problems with Skin Redness or ROSACEA? It also works to heal Acne & Rosacea .... which have become common Skin afflictions. My advice? Use the right Skincare products & don't forget to get your Zinc!

SKIN TIP 101 "ARE YOU USING THE RIGHT TEMPERATURE?"


 I know you love a Hot Shower, but when Cleansing your Face, you should remember to use only Lukewarm Water! Why? Water that's too hot can burn your Skin & cause Broken Capillaries. Water that's too cold can cause your Blood Vessels to open excessively in an attempt to warm up your Skin. I don't want either of those, do you??? Lukewarm ...... YOU can do it - 'cause it's the best Choice!

SKIN TIP 101 " ARE YOU USING A SATIN PILLOW?"

   OK, be honest - Have you started to notice little Creases & Indentions on your Face when you wake up in the Morning? It's just one of those things that just seem to happen as we "get Younger"! If your Sheets or Pillowcase have a Bunch-up or a Crease, your Face probably will too when you Wake up! Have you tried a Satin Pillow? It just may help!

SKIN TIP 101 "ARE YOU A GHOST FACE?!"


   What's this Fad that has some of you walking around with such a Pale Face? Sorry to tell you - it ONLY makes you look Ghostly & Older! Your Face & Neck never match because you tanned everything but your Face - Oh No - just don't do it ! A Foundation that's just a Shade Darker than your Skin actually makes you look Healthier & Naturally beautiful. If you feel you just must use up that Pale Shade of Foundation, OK ..... you don't have to wait long.... it's almost Halloween BOO!

SKIN TIP 101 "YOU'VE JUST GOT TO HAVE A NOURISHING NIGHT CREAM!"


 Especially now that the Weather is changing! Did you know Skin absorbs more Nutrients while you Sleep? The hustle & bustle is gone, & the relaxed state your Skin finds itself ... in allows greater Circulation & Oxygen flow - therefore your Skin is better able to grab the Nutrients a great Nourishing Night Cream has to offer. That is IF you've Cleansed your Face!
(You'd be surprised at how MANY Women admit to me they don't Cleanse their Face before bedtime ). So .... Be sure to Cleanse & put that Jar on your Bedside Table so you'll be able to grab that Night Cream while you Sleep

TIP 101 " ARE YOU USING A PRODUCT THAT HAS PEPTIDES?"


SKIN Well, I sure hope so - You'll be helping prevent future Wrinkles! Peptides are a group of Amino Acids that help prevent future Wrinkles because they inhibit enzymes that break down ...     the Skin's structure so Wrinkles can form. They also motivate your Skin to produce more Collagen - I like that! So ..... if YOU want to lessen the Wrinkles you have and slow down the formation of new ones? Look for an Anti-Aging Serum with Hexapeptides!

SKIN TIP 101 " ARE YOU TWO-FACED?"

 Do you have Combination Skin, that is! It's the toughest - Why? You're dealing with 2 different types of Skin - Dry & Oily! You probably have a T-zone that's Oily, & Cheeks that are Dry. You deal with occa...
sional Breakouts & larger than normal Pores - especially on the Nose. You try products meant for Oily skin because you think you're Oily, but this leads to Dry flakey Skin in the Dry areas! What's a girl to do? Know your Skin, & KNOW about the ingredients you're putting into it. Combination Skin requires Oil control in some areas & super Moisturization in the Dry areas. Does this sound like your Face? You're like a lot of Girls & Guys - Two Faced!
 

SKIN TIP 101 "OK, HERE'S ANOTHER GREAT REASON TO GET MORE EXERCISE!"

 We know it gives us more Energy, builds our Muscle Mass, helps Prevent High Blood Pressure, reduces Anxiety, & strengthens our Bones - it even raises our Metabolic rate so... we can Lose Weight! Did you know it also increases the Blood Flow to your Skin & increases the delivery of Oxygen & Nutrients to your Skin Cells? As the Weather gets cooler, we'll probably be staying in more - but we just have to keep up the Workouts - Inside!

SKIN TIP 101 "IF YOU HAVE OILY SKIN, YOU PROBABLY KNOW IT, BUT....."

 You have large visible Pores, Blackheads, White heads, Visible Shine, especially mid-day, and maybe frequent Acne on other areas such as your Back or Chest. Oily skin is common for people in their Teens & 20's, but it can continue into Older Adulthood! Here's the sad part: People with Oily skin tend to not take care of their Skin. You think you don't need Moisturizer because you have so much Oil.... that's a Myth, Oil & Moisture are 2 different things - ALL Skin needs Moisture! If you use abrasive scrubs to get rid of Oil .... you may be scratching your Skin! Make sure you're using a Creamy non-abrasive Cleanser & a Non-greasy Moisturizer! You also need an Eye Cream & a Night Cream & you can use Anti-Aging Serums just like the next Girl - Don't let Oil fool you into NOT taking care of your Skin!

SKIN TIP 101 "SO YOU THINK YOU'RE NORMAL?"

      Well, you think your Skin is anyway, right? Normal? First of all it means you're pretty lucky – Blessed! You don’t have a problem with Oil or Breakouts, & you don’t have Skin that is Dry & Tight. Most people with Normal Skin have small Pores – You don't have to use a lot of Foundation – lucky you! Now don't think you don't have to care for your Skin just because it's Normal - you still NEED to have a great Skin Care Regime & stick with it! You have to Cleanse, Moisturize & probably use a great Anti-Aging Serum every Morning & Night. You still have to protect your Skin from the Sun. Only these steps will help keep that Skin in the Normal range & keep you looking YOUNGER longer, OK?

SKIN TIP 101 "DID YOU KNOW THAT CAFFEINE IS NOT JUST FOR YOUR COFFEE ?"

 This may surprise you - Did you know that some studies show that Caffeine may ward off Skin Cancers? Because of that, it's been added to many Skin Care products. You
probably need to cut down on the amount of Caffeine you're Drinking, & putting into the Inside of your Body, & Concentrate on getting more of it onto the Outside of your Body into your Skin!

 


SKIN TIP 101 " DON'T USE SKIN PRODUCTS THAT HAVE MINERAL OIL AS AN INGREDIENT!"

 Mineral Oil is used in hundreds of products because it's a cheap Filler. It may also be listed as Paraffin wax or Vaseline. Mineral Oil can prevent the Skin from breathing & can become irritating to your Skin as well as clog your pores! WATCH OUT for Mineral Oil!

SKIN TIP 101 "OK ARE YOU DRYING THE RIGHT WAY?

I'm talking about Drying your Makeup Brushes, OK? Don't Wring them & Tear the Bristles! Just Blot with a Clean Dry Towel & let them Air Dry Naturally. Again, make sure the the Bristles are Pointing downward. Don't dry them with a blow dryer – It can damage the Bristles. Best time to Clean them? Right after you use them - then they'll be sure to be Dry when you use them again tomorrow!

Tuesday, September 11, 2012

SKIN TIP 101 " YOU MAY JUST BE CLEANSING THE WRONG WAY!"

 Cleansing your Makeup Brushes, that is! You don't need a special Cleanser, just a Mild Shampoo. Make sure it doesn't have Alcohol - that Dries Brushes out even more. Another trick? Hold the Brush with the Bristles pointing down - Apply a small amount of Shampoo & don't rub, but Swirl the Brush in a Bowl of Warm Water - you'll see all the debris! Do this again & rinse with warm Water with the Bristles pointed Down - Why? You don't want the Cleanser or the Water running into the base of your Brush - that loosens your Bristles! More about Drying them the Best way in the next SKIN TIP 101!

 Did you really realize that if you're not Washing your Make-up Brushes regularly you're actually putting Bacteria, Dirt, Dead Skin Cells & nasty Oil right back into your Skin? You may even be clogging your Pores! Of course if your Brushes aren't Clean, the Makeup you apply with them won't look so good either! Cleanse them one to two times a Week - More on the best way to do that in the next SKIN TIP 101!

How do you keep your Skin feeling its best once the colder Fall weather returns? Well, the Sun is still shining, so you still need Sunscreen!

 Ethyl Acetate - It's a highly Toxic Chemical that's used in Cosmetics. Can you believe it's also in your Nail Polish & Paint Remover Products?

SKIN TIP 101 " YES, WE'RE STILL TALKING ABOUT BAD SKIN INGREDIENTS!"

 So, here's yet another one that ay Surprise you -Petrolatum or Mineral Oil - Petrolatum is Mineral Oil Jelly & this Oil causes a lot of problems when it's used on your Skin - Clogged Pores for one - It also promotes Sun Damage - It tends to interfere with your own Natural Moisturizing process which means causes what this Product was actually suppose to Prevent - Dry Chapped Skin!
 
 
 
 

SKIN TIP 101 "I SURE HOPE YOU DON'T USE THIS INGREDIENT BECAUSE YOU JUST DON'T KNOW IT'S IN YOUR PRODUCT!"

  Imidazolidinyl Urea OR Diazolidinyl Urea - It's those words that you just can't Sell or Pronounce that you have to look out for, right? These are commonly used Preservatives. They are known to cause Eczema & Dermatitus. Here's the most exciting part - These ingredients are derived from ANIMAL Urine - they're also Formaldehyde releasing. WOW! I don't know about you, but I think these are Ingredients I'll choose to AVOID at all times!

SKIN TIP 101 "HERE'S ANOTHER SKIN CARE INGREDIENT YOU SHOULD BE AVOIDING!"

 You know it's probably been in most every Product you've ever used on your Skin - so may of the High End Products have it - ALCOHOL! It's a Free Radical & can cause Severe Dryness & Flaking. It can even destroy the Moisture Barrier of Skin. It's sometimes disguised as being referred to as Ethanol or Isopropyl - so Read that Label & don't be fooled - again!

SKIN TIP 101 " BRUSH YOUR TEETH...... AND YOUR LIPS!"

 It's a great way to Exfoliate Dry Chapped Lips! If it hasn't already happened, you'll probably have Drier Chapped Lips with an extra Skin build up before the Winter is over. Want an easy way to return them to a Softer, more Supple state? Apply a thick layer of your Lip Plumper, or even Vaseline, to your Lips.
*Use a Super Soft Toothbrush & rub your Lips gently in a Circular motion. The Toothbrush will Exfoliate and the thick Plumper or Vaseline will Heal and Hydrate.
*Tissue off that extra Skin & Salve & apply your favorite Lip Balm & Gloss for additional Protection & Shine!

SKIN TIP 101 "WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO COUNTERACT THE EFFECTS OF THAT SUGAR YOU EAT?"

Yesterday I talked about how Sugar is just not "sweet" to your Skin. If you have to have something Sweet - make it Dark Chocolate. What else? Get lots of Vitamin C! It helps Motivate your Skin to produce more Collagen. Get a lot of it Naturally by eating Strawberries, Broccoli, Oranges, Kiwi & Papayas - Yummmmm!.....

SKIN TIP 101 "I DON'T THINK THIS TIP IS VERY SWEET - DO YOU?"

SKIN TIP 101 "I DON'T THINK THIS TIP IS VERY SWEET - DO YOU?" I love Sweets, but guess what? They're not so good for your Skin! When Sugar Breaks down it also Breaks down your Collage & Elastin - Sad, but True! But here's some Good News - IF
you have to have something Sweet, I know I do - Make it a small Square of Dark Chocolate - the Antioxidants in it can protect you from Free Radicals, those Unstable Atoms that latch onto your Skin & increase the Chance of Fine Lines

SKIN TIP 101 "WHAT ARE THE WORST SKIN CARE INGREDIENTS YOU SHOULD TOTALLY AVOID?"

Well, there are a lot, but me start with some of the Worst ones! PARABENS! They're used as Preservatives & to stop Bacterial growth. The Bad News is that hey are also known Allergens that can even cause Dermatitis. They interfere with Hormone & Estrogen levels in your Body - I don't need any of that, do you? Look for Paraben-Free Skin Care - Your Skin Care company will not tell you their products have Parabens unless you ask - So Read that label & Ask!

SKIN TIP 101 "HOW ARE YOU LOOKING IN YOUR SUMMER SANDALS?"

 We've just got to talk about it - Nail Fungus! If you've been anywhere Barefoot this Summer, you could have easily attracted it. You can pick it up anywhere it's Wet or Damp - especially at the Pool & Gym! It's a common problem - Look for a small White or Yellow Spot on your Nails - that's the beginning of it - If you see this, make sure you're Drying your Feet really well after Showering. Go to your Health Food & get Tea Tree Oil - Wash your feet & Dry them completely. Apply Tea Tree Oil directly on the Spots. Don’t put your Shoes & Socks on until your Feet are Dry. Do this 2-3 times a day - You're now on the way back to lovely Nails & Sexy Feet!
