Mask.

Step 3 – Mask

You will need:

Small ceramic/ glass bowl
Fan brush/ artistic brush/ pastry brush
Cleansing cloths
Bowl of warm water

Mineral Mask (balancing, rejuvenating, purifying or soothing)

Using the ceramic or glass bowl, make a smooth paste by mixing 1 tsp of purified water with 1 heaped tsp of mask powder. Stir to form a smooth paste and smooth a generous amount of mask onto the face and neck using the fan/ artistic brush.

Lie down with your feet up and relax for 10-15 minutes, until mask is almost dry.

Rinse off with plenty of tepid water and use the cleansing pads to wipe off the mask.

(20 applications @ 1 teaspoon per application.)

Clay-based masks will actually draw toxins from within the skin. Clay firms, tones and refines the skin, promoting a smooth, supple, and clear complexion.

Clay re-mineralises and re-balances the skin, assisting with tissue regeneration.

Masks must be followed by a Skin Conditioner and Moisturiser to prevent dehydration.

The Organic Facial Spa Ritual.

A step by step guide on how to give yourself or someone else an organic facial.

Step 1: Cleanse

You will need: • 2 x cleansing cloths or cleansing pads

• A bowl of warm water (ceramic or glass)

• Cleanser (balancing, rejuvenating, purifying or soothing)

Gently press the face with a warm (never hot), soft cleansing cloth to open pores and soften the surface of the skin cells. Apply one or two pumps of cleanser to the palm of your hand and massage gently into the face and neck.

Remove gently with water and cotton pads. If wearing

make-up, a second cleanse is necessary. (First one to remove makeup, the second to cleanse the skin). (180 applications per bottle @ 3 pumps per application)

Cleansing removes the top layer of dead cells, oil, perspiration and pollution. If your skin is not cleansed properly it becomes dull and flaky and the oil glands block up with dirt and cellular waste, causing breakouts and congestion.

Supplements Enhance Health.

New Studies Confirm Supplements Enhance Health
By Dr. Allen S. Josephs

I get so tired of responding to vitamin naysayers. The latest one is Dr. Eric Rimm, Associate Professor of Epidemiology and Nutrition at Harvard. He reportedly told ABC television that dietary supplements will not provide the nutritional boost a poor diet requires. He does correctly state that a change in diet and lifestyle will improve health, although adds that "fundamentally unhealthy people seeking dietary remedial actions through supplementation are wasting their time". He also adds, "Indeed, dietary supplements used in this way may provide little more than expensive urine."

Obviously, optimizing your diet and exercise plans is a great way to impenquin exercisingprove your health. Even so, I take issue with Dr. Rimm uniformly slamming nutritional supplementation. Dr. Michael Holick who wrote a wonderful review article1 on vitamin D deficiency last year in The New England Journal of Medicine, noted that 40% of Americans are vitamin D deficient. It is clear that the nutritional value of our food has diminished over the last few decades.

Beautiful Cheeks With Miessence Blush.

(Product Review) By Aria Milan, Skin Care & Body Care Editor

The act of blushing is associated with the glow of being in love and has always been considered an alluring quality. Throughout the ages, women have applied color to their cheeks to capture the beauty of the blushing effect. The perfect shade of blush is a prize find. The right color for cheeks can mean the difference between a healthy, youthful glow and a sick pallor.

Finding "just the right color" can be a challenge in and of itself, but narrowing the search to include finding the right blush in an all natural cosmetic can be a frustrating endeavor. Most cosmetics on the market are awash with harmful chemical additives. One could deduce that these chemical additives play a key role in the texture and "feel" of the cosmetic.
