Spring into your best skin ever

Have you been wondering why we still use and are openly lured into using chemical and toxic beauty and skin care products on TV and every other page of a fashion magazine? So many of us have long been enjoying the health benefits of organic and natural foods, yet still lather on synthetic foundations, lipsticks and body lotions. These ingredients are absorbed into our bodies through the skin and may cause serious health problems. Many recent studies have shown multiple toxic ingredients like lead and mercury in Big and Famous cosmetic brands. Check out this recent news article .

And if you have already tried many different natural and organic store brands, you may be thinking that even though it feels good putting on something like olive oil, rosehip or calendula, rather then petroleum, these products unfortunatelly don’t always bring the anticipated results.

This spring I invite you to venture out and try something that actually, clinically-proven, works! Come experience the new collection of products of a leading and award winning professional organic skin care company that has been voted best by skincare professionals for the past 3 consecutive years.

So, leave your winter skin behind and immerse yourself into beautiful and instant results of targeted treatments with the healing power of organic fruits, herbs and vegetables. And with some insight of a health coach on skin friendly diet and other aspects of holistic skin care, let me show you how you can slow down the aging process, prevent further damage and return healthy glow, elasticity and firmness back to your face and body.

Is your sunscreen really protecting you?

Sun damage vs vitamin D deficiency, and UVA vs UVB sun protection.

Many articles have been written over the past few years on whether to use sunscreen and what kind.

It has been known that many of us have become deeply deficient in Vitamin D. Naturally the body can make sufficient amount of this vitamin while exposed to the sun. Vitamin D is essential for many functions in our bodies, including the absorption of calcium. It is also a powerful antioxidant, and some experts believe that it helps to prevent many internal cancers. We need about 20 minutes (depending on your skin type) in the sun, ideally before 10 am or after 4pm fully exposed to make sufficient amount of vitamin D.

“In all my many years of practice of medicine, I’ve never seen one vitamin, even vitamin C, have such profound effects on human health.”

- Soram Khalsa MD.

It makes sense to supplement the right dose of Vitamin D (D3 in particular).

A disturbing fact came out in a recent study that examined several brands of sunscreen and sunblock. Most of these brands are rated for UVB protection only, as they are required. UVB are the rays that cause sunburn. So, for years we’ve been relying on these brands and thinking that when not burning we are safely enjoying the sun. However, it is the UVA rays that are damaging. They penetrate the skin deeper, cause damage to the elastin and collagen fiber, which results in wrinkles, loss of elasticity, sagging and pigmentation. These are the same rays that are also believed to cause skin cancer.

So, next time you pick up a new bottle of sunscreen make sure it is a full spectrum UVA and UVB sunblock.

I believe that mineral sunscreens are the best, because they:

  • are natural full spectrum sunblock
  • don’t get absorbed into the skin
  • don’t block your pores
  • cool the skin’s surface (ideal for Rosacea, broken capillaries and sensitive skin)
  • are waterproof and very stable
  • have calming benefits for sensitive and Rosacea skin types

At Revive you can get a variety of mineral sunscreens for the body and face, great for women, men and children. These are pure clinical and therapeutic grade minerals that not only protect but also perfect your skin, free of harsh chemicals, dyes and fragrance.

Sunforgettable mineral brush SPF 30 & 50

is a lightweight mineral powder with a barely-there feel that provides the safest, non-irritating, instant UVA and UVB sun protection.

This breakthrough, very water resistant, sheer formula is easy to apply and reapply throughout the day.

Introducing Holistic Health and Nutrition

When was the last time you talked with someone about your health and received the personal attention you deserve?

Personally I always new that stress and my diet immediately reflected on my skin. I decided to study nutrition to learn how food affected our health and emotional well-being as well as the beauty of our skin. Holistic health and nutrition about individual needs, ” one person’s food is another one’s poison”. We are constantly being persuaded into buying this or that type of food, supplement or medication. Advertising turned what may have once seemed a basic instinct of eating, into the most complicated science of what foods to eat and what diet to go on.

A Holistic Health and Nutrition Coach is a guide and motivation provider to an individual who wants commit to improving his or her health, emotional wellness and creating a lasting healthy and happy lifestyle.

Have you been wanting to:

  • improve your eating habits
  • increase your energy and focus
  • reduce cravings, mood swings and PMS symptoms
  • feel better in your body or change your weight
  • be more balanced
  • become confident in choosing and preparing better food for you and your family
  • create a lasting healthier lifestyle

As a Holistic Health Coach I am your personal advocate for living an energized and passionate life. I work with my clients to help them improve their health and create happier lives in a way that is flexible, fun and free of denial and discipline.

Health Coaching is a unique, exciting innovation in health and nutrition. I have studied all the major dietary theories and will help you discover what approach works best for you at this point in your life.

By working together, we will discover the foods and lifestyle choices that best support you.
  • Based on Bio-Individuality
  • No one diet works for everyone

Imagine what your life would be like if you had clear thinking, energy and excitement every day.

My holistic health coach radically changed my life in the first two months, and it’s just been getting better everyday!
