Imagine using a topical cream that activitates your body’s own stem cells and promotes skin rejuventation to the point where 10+ years could be taken off.  This is a whole new approach and a pricey one.  Amatokin by Voss Laboratories is considered to be a skin care miracle in a jar.  With over 15 years of research and clinical studies Amatokin just might be the hottest new skin care product available on the market.  Not only does this new amazing stem cell targeted skin care product fight deep wrinkles it also brings out the skin’s own natural radiance making you look so much younger. 

A results driven product, Amatokin, Emulsion for the Face uses the technology of polypeptides and enzymes to boost the body’s own natural stem cells.   You basically get new skin cells that are not damaged by the sun, age or environment. A 30 ml tube can run you $190.  But who can put a price on having young skin…

A revolutionary new way to remove unwanted hair in the privacy of your own home is available on the market. The No! No! hair removal device is an innovative painless way to remove unwanted hair from any part of the body.  Based on a new technology called Thermicon™, the No! No! device uses the scientific principles of thermal transference to conduct a gentle pulse of heat to the hair.  A unique method, the thermodynamic wire transmits heat to the hair and quickly removes it. No mess, no cuts, no burns, and no noise.  There is also no skin irriation, rashes or ingrown hairs.  Well worth the price! Available at Sephora.

Don’t like to wash your hair everyday?  There are some days when I just don’t feel like washing my hair and those are usually the days that I need too.  Some of us tend to have an oilier scalp which causes our hair to look oily and feel greasy… not very attractive, especially if you have somewhere important to be. 

An easy solution for this is Aveda Pure Abundance Hair Potion.  Just sprinkle on the powder, which transforms to a liquid lotion, on the hair’s part line and instantly have clean, fresh hair.  The powder made from acacia gum and kaolin clayon absorbs the oil and increases the diameter of the hair shaft giving hair more volume and a matte texture. 

Exfoliation is an important part of our skin care routine.  By exfoliating the dead skin cells we are allowing for the healthly renewal of new skin cells to take it’s place. Roc’s new Daily Microdermabrasion Cleansing Pads are an effective way to accomplish this.  The microdermabrasion pads contain two sides.  One side contains an exfoliator with Crystalex® micro-crystals that cleanse the skin while the gentle microdermabrasion action removes impurities and dead skin cells. The opposite side has a moisturizing conditioner to leave the skin feeling smooth and silky. 

Roc’s microdermabrasion pads are gentle enough to use everyday and studies have shown the effectiveness of use after only one week.  You’ll notice an improved skin tone, fewer lines and wrinkles and an improvement in sun damaged skin.  The discs even contain a finger pocket for ease of use.  Can be purchased at Drugstore.com.

The other day i walked past a room where a client was having a pumkin enzyme peel.  The aroma of home baked pumpkin pie and Thanksgiving came to me immediately.  The pumkin scent was that wonderfully intense.  Pumkins are known for their high levels of vitamin A as well as other nutrients.  The concentrated pumpkin extract is high in beta carotene and combined with pumkin wine, enzymes and essential oils you can only expect a great result.  The Youth Accelerator Pumpkin enzyme peel by Sircuit Skin is a 100% natural fruit acid that will make any complexion radiate a natural beautiful glow while minimizing pores and giving your skin a deep exfoliation. For you chocolate lovers  make sure to check out the Mocha Loca 4% Chocolate Lactic Acid Peel.
