heal your skin, heal the gulf

for those of you have haven't heard of Galen Labs, you are missing out! Galen Labs is a local skincare company based on the philosophy and discoveries of Claudius Galen, hence it's namesake. utilizing shea butter as the basis for most of their products, Galen Labs is the epitome of the 'less is more' philosophy! shea is well-known for its healing properties as it is naturally rich in vitamin A and E. used to help prevent pre-mature aging, soothe dermatitis, and heal sunburn(i can attest to this!), its my new miracle in a jar!

now is the time to try it! until June 30th Galen Labs will donate $5 of each jar of Shea Cream sold to the efforts of the Gulf Coast Oil Spill Fund. seems like a win win to me!

bonus!: for those of you who shared my obsession of Aveda's Night Nutrients, you also shared my devastation of Aveda discontinuing it! at long last i have found us its replacement...Galen Labs XII Elements Facial Serum. an amazing blend of shea, jojoba, and powerful essential oils, this product will change your life! just a small amount under moisturizer(or in place of moisturizer, for some of you) and under sunscreen will have your skin hydrated and radiant! stop in for a free sample!

apple cider vinegar: can you stomach it?

2010-04-28T10:28:00.002-05:00

I know of a few people whom are doing this concoction daily and swear by it! Finding acne clearing up, craving less sugar(lord knows I need this!) and have more energy, are just a few of the effects some are noticing. The only draw back I've found...it's rather difficult to stomach! I have no doubt it works, vinegar promotes pH balance in turn inhibiting inflammation; FYI, inflammation is where most all of our "issues" begin. Here is the recipe for it:

ACV Concoction:
-2 tablespoons of ACV, preferably a organic product such as Bragg
-Squeeze of lemon juice(I use juice of a whole lemon)
-Touch of honey or stevia(although optional, I find necessary)
-12 ounces of water

I am trying it with less water and taking it like a shot...and I'm pretty sure I make the same face as if I'm taking a shot of tequilla(which I forbid myself to do, btw!). I want to know if you decide to try it and what you start to notice. For more information, recipes, and benefits, check out the Bragg website.

all about eyes!

2010-04-25T21:03:00.000-05:00

One of the most common concerns(and perhaps complaints!) is about the skin around the eyes. We are all looking for something to conceal our lack of sleep, the puffiness due to allergies and good-old genetics, and those fine lines that age brings. With a few new inventions we can help repair and hopefully prevent these occurrences! The skin around our eyes is so delicate that special care for it is a must. The two newest creations that we are loving is the Clarisonic Opal and iS Clinical Youth Eye Complex

The Opal combines sonic infusion technology with a anti-aging sea serum for beautiful and dramatic results. Used twice daily, users have noticed a lasting difference in puffiness, fine lines and firmness after just a week or two! No joke...the words "I think I can stop getting botox" have been uttered!!!

iS Clinical Youth Eye Complex is a cream formula containing everything that you can imagine ever wanting and needing in an eye product! With "intelligent proteins" that fight the signs of aging and help prevent further damage, antioxidants, and peptides to help diminish puffiness and discoloration, you will notice an immediate firmness that will build with continued use.

As a new mama getting very little sleep...these two products are keeping me looking as those I am getting more than ever! Oh how looks can be deceiving!!!

For a limited time, receive a free Signature Eye Treatment with the purchase of a Clarisonic Opal! A $45 value!

-Signature Eye Treatment is a 30-minute service focusing on diminishing puffiness, reducing fine lines and calming irritation around the sensitive eye area. May be combined with a full facial treatment for maximum benefit and relaxation.
