Fresh Ideas
July 2009


Why exfoliate?
Exfoliation refers to any technique that removes cells from the skin surface including scrubs, peels, masques, dermabrasion, and laser. Everyone exfoliates naturally and an exfoliation regimen is helping the body along which is vital as we age. Teenagers completely regenerate the external layer of skin on an average of every 14 days. By the time one is 40, however, the rate is increased to 30 to 40 days. The result is dull skin. Exfoliate to refresh skin and stimulate that cell renewal!

The dream creams!
The best anti-aging additives! Vitamin A, pentapeptides, and TGF'S(transforming growth factors). These ingredigents do more to reverse damage and slow down the aging process than anything else out there!

Even greater sun protection!
For even greater sun protection apply an antioxidant serum containing vitamins C or E, Co-Q10, alpha-lipoic acid, green or white tea, pomegrante, or idebenone beneath your full spectrum sunscreen. The antioxidants fight off skin-aging free radicals generated by sunlight.

Extra sunscreen benefit!
New studies have found that sunscreen use can provide almost instant improvements by allowing your cells to focus on tasks that make skin healthy, like building collagen and shedding dead cells, rather than on fighting UV rays.

Over Plucked?
Will they grow back? Unless the hair follicle has been destroyed, they will grow back! Be patient; brows can take up to four months to regrow fully.

Make-up concealer tip!
When choosing a concealer look for the color that is nearest skin tone rather than a lighter one. Covering a problem area with a paler shade will simply accentuate it.

Mousse Abuse!
Too much gel and mousse can dry out hair causing lack of softness and shine. Use alcohol-free formulas, put product on semi-dry, not soaked hair, and only use a dab! Use a purifiying shampoo weekly to remove all build-up.

Superpowers!
Pomegrante juice - this fruit juice has more antioxidants than green tea! A little less than 2 ounces is adequate. A powerful drink!
