Right now, one lucky person has the opportunity to win this amazing product. But, we all know that everyone can’t be a winner so Dr. Perricone MD has a great offer to try free samples of Cold Plasma. Just pay shipping & handling for $4.95!

Dr. Perricone also has a new book coming out called Forever Young in September. If you pre-order now at Amazon.com you can receive a free Concentrated Restoration Treatment valued at $75.

Forever Young is Dr. Perricone’s newest, most ground-breaking book, and it talks about how he discovered the technology which underlies Cold Plasma. Dr. Perricone was able to isolate charged particles, suspend them in a highly absorbent and penetrative base for maximum absorption into the skin. This is the science that underlies the product. In the book, he also discusses how the nutrients in Cold Plasma directly stimulate the precursor to collagen and elastin, glycosaminoglycans. Dermatologists have been looking for years for effective ways to stimulate skin’s natural levels of glycosaminoglycans.

Another great message in his book discusses the importance of good nutrition and sustained energy. I’m a firm believer on this so make sure to check out Perricone 99 Bars to obtain optimal health and beauty inside and out.

Disclosure: Perricone MD Cold Plasma is supplied by Dr. Perricone and no compensation was given for this post. Read my Disclosure policy on my About page.

10 Natural Secrets to Preserve Your Youth and Beauty

How to Preserve Your Skin

No more botox, facelifts, cosmetic surgeries or other methods to stay looking young. We as women shouldn’t resort to these costly and dangerous measures. There is however, several natural factors you can use to preserve your youth and beauty. Now let me just say that there is no “quick fix” to maintaining your youth naturally; but the outcome can be rewarding in the long run.Your skin is so important and the key to youthfulness. It should be treated with care and by nurturing the skin from the inside, it will show on the outside. Better yet, caring for your skin from the inside and outside works even better with faster results! It’s also safer. No more worries on botched cosmetic surgeries or if your physician has had proper botox training. So, here are 10 natural alternatives to looking and staying young and beautiful.

1. No Caffeine- Sorry coffee lovers but it’s time to start cutting down on the coffee and tea. Too many people are addicted to caffeine which is really bad for the skin. Caffeine prevents our bodies from absorbing the vitamins and nutrients we need. It also contributes to CELLULITE. So, let’s go easy on the caffeine okay? Try dark chocolate instead to control your cravings.

2. De-Stress- Yes, stress is a part of life but, too much stress can cause harm to your health and to the skin. It can cause acne, weight-gain, hair-loss, and so on. Stress can also cause us to age more quickly. When you’re in stress-mode, take deep breaths to stay calm, or try not to take on so many projects at the same time; but, most of all, SMILE!

3. Exercise- That’s a no brainer! Exercising can help remove toxins from the body which leaves you with a healthier and brighter complexion. It can help clear up acne and reduce stress. Overall, exercising will make you stronger, healthier, more flexible, and increase your energy. These factors alone will make you look and feel younger. Here’s a suggestion: Try a yoga class.

4. Eat your veggies- Give your skin the vitamins and minerals it needs to stay healthy and youthful. Eat more foods rich in Vitamin A, B, and C. Check out my article on foods that nourish the skin.

5. Keep your skin hydrated internally- Drink water, water, and more water! Water helps flush out toxins from the body and plays an important role in maintaining healthy, youthful skin. So, drink up! Check out my article on why water is important.

6. Don’t eat your cucumbers?- Instead place them on your eyes and cheeks. It’s one of the oldest remedy out there but boy does it work. As a natural astringent, cucumbers can hide dark circles and prevent puffiness.

7. Sunscreen- It’s starting to heat up so start protecting your skin from the evil UVA/UVB rays. The sun aids in the aging process by breaking down collagen so make sure to put on sunscreen an hour before you step outside.

8. Home-made Facial Mask- Nourish your skin with home-made masks. By using all natural ingredients, the results are far better and less money is coming out of your pocket. Check out this Nourishing Quinoa Mask that you can make at home.

9. Exfoliate- Dull and tired skin can be fixed by exfoliation. Remove those dead skin cells and show off you soft and smooth skin. Sugar scrubs are suitable for all skin-types. Alpha Hydroxy Acid is a known anti-aging property so look for scrubs that contains it. Honey is another fantastic ingredient to look for. It’s a humectant which means it draws in moisture. Avocados, Oatmeal, Milk, Egg whites, and Aloe Vera are great ingredients to look for in facial scrubs too!

10 . Keep your skin hydrated externally- Moisturize! By moisturizing your skin, it will feel well nourished and balanced. Know your skin-type before purchasing any moisturizer.

Well there you have it! 10 natural secrets to a women’s youth and beauty. Take care of your skin from the inside and outside. You will shave off years!

New Aveeno Positively Ageless Warming Scrub

My new favorite body scrub is Aveeno new Positively Ageless Warming Scrub. I love the warm feeling it gives my skin while I’m scrubing my back. After the first use, soft and supple skin was the result and I have to say that it was a great experience. It’s a great experience each time I use it. The new Positively Ageless Body Care Line are anti-aging formulas made from a Shitake complex to give you younger-looking skin from head to toe. I have yet to try the other products in the line but so far the warming scrub is fantastic. Your skin will feel pampered after using it.
