O3mega+ glow from Genuine Health firms and hydrates!
As you know I’ve been quite excited about how effectively Genuine Health’s Skin Perfect has almost completely stopped my acne breakouts.
It didn’t happen overnight, but after about 5 months of use, I only have to deal with the occasional pimple during “that time of the month” as opposed to being covered with pimples 365 days a year.
While trying the Skin Perfect, I decided to also start taking Genuine Health’s O3mega+ glow. Since I had started using this product in early February, I was able to see how effective it was at not only helping my skin remains well hydrated, but I was also able to see how well it helped me deal with the winter skin on the rest of my body.

No pain = extra gain when it comes to cosmetic rejuvenation
Since I’m on the topic of plastic surgery, I thought I’d touch on an important point.
Most people are fully aware that if they get surgery and they feel post-surgical pain or discomfort they should run (not walk) to their doctor’s office. Well, this also applies to non-cosmetic rejuvenation.
Since when you undergo non-cosmetic rejuvenation treatments, you are usually awake, you know fairly quickly if something is burning and feeling particularly painful.

Fighting fine lines in your 40s, 50s and 60s
I’m a big magazine junkie and I have to admit that Harper’s Bazaar might be my favourite. I equally like the British and the American edition.
Bazaar was the first one to break down style and beauty tips for women in their 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s and YES – 70s! I know for me it was very inspiring to see that such a prestigious magazine would recognize that women in their 40s, 50s, 60s and YES 70s do still want to look attractive and they are still very much open to tips and tricks.
A few editions ago, Bazaar featured some products they considered to be essentials for women in their 40s, 50s and 60s.

I don’t agree with Paula Begoun author of Don’t Go to the Cosmetics Counter Without Me
I was watching Marilyn Denis’ CityLine show on City TV (on Wednesday, Mars 19) when I noticed Paula Begoun as the guest expert promoting the newest edition of her book “Don’t Go to the Cosmetics Counter Without Me”.
One thing that I quite like about Paula Begoun is the fact that she features lower priced products that are comparable to higher priced skincare or makeup products. Not everyone can afford higher priced products and let’s face … we all have months where our beauty budget is smaller than others.
Did you know you could buy loads of beauty products on ebay?
Seriously, have you noticed how many products are under the eBay beauty category?
A few weeks ago, I was doing a search for an anti-aging product and I noticed that eBay pages kept popping up everywhere. At first, I discounted them because I really couldn’t figure out why eBay was coming up so often, but then I started clicking on the links and noticed that these were actual beauty and anti-aging products.

Do you suffer from severely dry skin in the winter?
It’s officially winter (and most likely it’s going to be a very long one)!
Alas, we undoubtedly deal with dry and even severely dry skin in the winter. If you’ve not been able to find a cream that helps you through the year’s harshest months, you might want to consider Atopalm. This concentrated formula has been specifically formulated for sensitive and dry skin. A scientific combination of ingredients including pseudo-ceramide, fatty acids and cholesterol relieves the discomfort of dry skin and strengthen the skin’s own barrier function while providing essential moisture.
Since I had never heard of the effectiveness of pseudo-ceramides before, I asked one of the distributors of Atopalm to explain the benefits in further detail.
