What would you do to stop your face from aging?  Well, the latest anti-aging fad to hit the US is the face bra.  And supposedly this is the hollywood stars secret to an ageless face.  As you can see from the picture the name is exactly what it states - a face bra.  You almost look like a mummy.  You’re supposed to wear it 40 minutes a day but not while you are sleeping.  I guess you need to keep still and not toss and turn maybe then causing more wrinkles?  Anyhow, does this really work?

The recent introduction of the international ilift handheld anti-aging device offers the personal user an alternative to expensive medical spa treatments.  It’s effective in reducing and preventing expression wrinkles.  It also aids in restoring the skin’s elasticity and therefore promoting a more youthful appearance.  For the first month use is everyday for normal, dry and aging skin and 3-4 days for oily and sensitive skin.  After one month of treatment you can reduce use to 1-2 times per week.  Results are glowing, healthy, beautiful skin.  Click here for some before and after pictures or visit http://www.ilift.it/ for more information.

With the holidays just around the corner there is no better time to start your gift buying.  The one thing everyone loves are spa gifts especially handmade ones.  Maryam’s Soak Nook offers a wide selection of soaps, scrubs, lotions, hydrating mists… the list goes on.  All are a wonderful blend of natural ingredients and delicious flavors that moisture and nourish the skin.  The whipped Shea Monoi Body Butter is a like a dessert souffle and looks good enough to eat!  Light & fluffy it absorbs into the skin and the clean fresh scent stays with you all day long. My favorite is the Luxury Body Mist.  It’s a light and fragrant hydrater.  Great in the morning after a shower or anytime you want a little lift. Whatever the occassion Maryam’s Soap Nook products make a wonderful gift or a personal treat.
