Can Makeup Do Good To The Skin?

"She's off to put on her war paint"

"Did you put that on with a shovel?"

Yes, we've all heard this haven't we? And a lot of the time it actually feels this way too! Sometimes, I cannot wait to get my makeup off, then I feel like my face needs a good wash! Imagine not feeling this way when wearing make up, or having taken it off?

Can any make up actually do good for your skin, and not leave you feeling like it has been 'put on with a shovel'?

Cosmetics products for your face can deliver healthy skin benefits along with smoothing, perfecting and contouring results. Some of the benefits from skin cosmetics can include:

■ Protection: Makeup with UVA/UVB protection can help prevent sunburn.

■ Moisture balance support: Cosmetics can help support the skin’s moisture levels to minimise the appearance of fi ne lines and wrinkles. Select the formula that delivers the best hydration for your skin type.

Beautiful, healthy looking skin starts with a personalised skincare regime to help create the perfect canvas for your cosmetics. Cosmetics can help you create the perfect finish that delivers the look you want for day or night.

The ideal makeup options help you create a “flawless face” appearance and complement your skincare regime. The products should:

Home Detox - Reduce bloating and lose inches

So, we all love detox wraps (and detoxing in general) just as much as we love a quick fix by dropping a few inches for a night out or special occasion!

For me, I suffer from IBS and I cannot plan around when I am going to bloat so much that I cannot fasten my jeans - so I am all for detox wraps that will assist in reducing my bloating for a few days!



So here we welcome the Arbonne SeaSource Spa detox wrap!

It is so easy to do and takes around an hour including preparation and leave on time!
first, I am going to introduce the SeaSource Spa range itself, before I explain how to do the wraps!

 

Your skin is responsible for a quarter of your body’s natural detoxification each day to keep it healthy. Healthy skin appears vibrant, radiant and soft. Skin that appears dry, flaky or dull might need some rejuvenation and detoxification by cleansing, exfoliating and masking.

Products such as cleansers, exfoliants and masks help detoxify skin by cleaning pores, and removing dead skin cells and built up toxins on the skin’s surface. To help keep your skin looking healthy:

■ Cleanse twice daily: Cleansing helps remove toxins and impurities.

■ Practice skin brushing: Similar to exfoliating, dry brushing helps stimulate surface circulation and remove dead skin.

■ Sweat: Sweating can quickly and effectively discharge the body of toxins, so vigorous workouts and the use of steam rooms are effective for detoxifying skin.

■ Stay hydrated: Drink at least 6–8 glasses of water daily. Hydrating helps your body fl ush out toxins and gives skin the appearance of a healthy glow.

■ Use masks: Full body or face masks draw out impurities and toxins, helping prevent clogged pores and remove excess oils.

SeaSource Detox Spa products were developed for skin detoxification, restoration and total renewal through hydration. Beneficial marine plant extracts in the products offer restorative hydration as they nourish skin with moisture. Vitamins, sea derived minerals and botanicals, and patented marine technologies make SeaSource Detox Spa a unique, dynamic collection to help you achieve maximum skincare benefits.

So, what you will need:
1. Purifying sea soak - http://www.arbonne.com/Pws/SophieBonner/store/AMUK/product/Purifying-Sea-Soak-7318,2161,524.aspx
2. Detox spa renewing body gelee - http://www.arbonne.com/Pws/SophieBonner/store/AMUK/product/Renewing-Body-Gel%C3%A9e-7323,2166,524.aspx
3. Foaming sea salt scrub - http://www.arbonne.com/Pws/SophieBonner/store/AMUK/product/Foaming-Sea-Salt-Scrub-7317,2160,524.aspx
4. Cling film
5. Bandages



Place 1/3 of Arbonne Purifying sea soak to 4 cups of warm water in a bowl. Place the bandages in the solution to soak.
Whist this is soaking, place the foaming sea salt body scrub on the areas you are targeting and wash off.
Generously apply the renewing body gelee to the same areas.
Rinse out the bandages and apply snuggly around the area.
Finally, wrap snuggly with the cling film, leave for 45 minutes and remove!




It works out at around £5 a wrap, so why not get all of the girls/guys round and make a night of it?
