Galvanic Spa System For Younger Skin
The Galvanic Spa System is a hand-held device that uses low level galvanic (electric) current to facilitate the transport of key ingredients to the skin. The current that is used is a micro-current that is biologically compatible to the normal electrical charges in cells. It is a very small current. It would take over a [...]
Why Do I Drink Cactus Juice?
The Nopal cactus belongs to a special group of plants that contain a very unique class of anti-oxidants. Anti-oxidants help to reduce free radicals.

Clean Slate; A Post On Cleansing Your Face
There are a couple of cleansers that I really like. I use different cleansers at night than I do in the morning. It is extremely important to clean your face before you go to bed at night. At night while you sleep is when your skin cells are repairing themselves and this is why I [...]

Moisturizers are meant to hydrate the upper layer of the skin. Even if you have oily skin, you need a moisturizer. I do not have oily skin so the products I am recommending are geared more towards mature or maturing skin, which would basically be anyone over 35.
