Podcast: Benefits Of Skin Exfoliation
It’s never too late. We have a choice and it is given to us by life itself and here is why. According to research our biological age can appear different from the chronological age and that is because almost every cell in our body replaces itself over the course of 7-10 years. Dr. Northrup, women’s health advocate, talks about how our thoughts and beliefs affect our well-being. Thanks to the knowledge through epigenetics, scientists agree that heredity has a small impact on our life as it is only 20%-30% of who we are and who we’ll become. And that means we do have lots of control over the present and the future because the remaining balance 70%-80% is influenced by the lifestyle we lead. If your father frowns a lot, you are not destined to do the same only if you choose to do so. All we need to do is decide to be healthy, look younger while making small efforts each day towards those goals to succeed. Eckhart Tolle in his book The Power Of Now talks about it and says that our thoughts are more powerful that anything else out there. So think positive and strive to start your day with a powerful meditation or a gratitude session to set the tone for the day to come. Not only you’ll have a great day but everyone around you will be uplifted. Listen to this relaxing music below anytime to look and feel good. Gift From Yolanda: Relax The process of exfoliation helps to speed up cell rejuvenation by sloughing the old, dry and flaky skin cells to bring life to a healthy and more radiant cells. Let’s talk about the benefits of skin exfoliation, what to use, how often etc. Exfoliation speeds up the regeneration of the skin, making it look clear, younger and stronger. It is a first line of defense against wrinkles, dark spots, acne breakouts and acne scars. Exfoliation helps the skin to breathe. There are two kinds of exfoliants: Gel exfoliants such as fruit acids that are mild irritants. AHA’s and other that can be used once a week or twice a week.Sandy, gritty exfoliators and electric brushes which are more invasive and should be used less frequently. When you read a spa menu, you notice facial peel and microdermabrasion under the exfoliating facial treatments. Both are perfect for any skin and are safe to use for anybody. Microdermabrasion should be avoided during the summer months as it exposes the skin to sun damage. What can you do at home to exfoliate the skin? You’ve probably tried the gritty and harsh exfoliants in the past and know that the skin gets too irritated and red when you used them too often. As we get older we need to exfoliate the skin more often but only use gel exfoliants as the skin is thinning out already and can’t tolerate those strong scrubs. And that applies to the electric brushes too, they may look innocent but when used to often they remove more than just the dead skin from the surface. If you already have this brush, please use it no more than once a week or every two weeks. You can easily whip out your own facial peel made of nothing else but a fruit acid from a fresh lemon. Squeeze the lemon into a glass container and use it on a freshly cleansed skin. Since this is a citric acid you don’t want any metal touching it. Remove it with cool water after 5 min and apply your serum and a moisturizer. Make sure to avoid the eye area. You can store the juice in the tightly closed container(glass or plastic) for 72 hours. Apply it every night for three days. Make sure to use a sunscreen every day to preserve your perfectly radiant looking skin. How often do you do those peels? Every two weeks and try to schedule a facial at least once every three months if you are 30 something and once a month anytime after you turn 40 years old. After two decades of working in the skin care industry, I can unequivocally say that skin aging can be reversed naturally. It doesn’t matter what age you are, if you follow the the well rounded plan given to you by your skin care professional and keep your mind free of clutter of the past, you’ll look and feel younger. Home care is just as important as in-spa care. You need to have the right skin care products to support the skin, exfoliation is very important and a fruit acid based cleanser similar to BOC Triple Exfoliating Cleanser is best as it helps the skin to melt away the dead skin cells without irritating the skin. Vit C or retinol are other great product that support skin rejuvenation. The post Podcast: Benefits Of Skin Exfoliation appeared first on Safe Natural Skin Care.

Natural Solutions For Dark Circles
Welcome to spring of 2020. As we are still under a ‘house arrest’ thanks to coronavirus, I am getting creative in reaching my audience by implementing a podcast Safe Natural Skin Care and Video Consultations. What are you doing with all that extra time, are you finding anything positive while spending the time alone and becoming more present? I did, and here are three awesome things that make it all worthwhile: The pollution levels have dropped so dramatically that people in India, for the first time in 30 years, can see the can Himalayas in its full glory. We are contributing to making a world a better place. Great job people.I am finding that I actually love my house! I am so grateful for having a save and loving place to call home. Up until just a month ago I was too busy to notice. I love spring but don’t like the allergy symptoms that come with it. It looks like this year we are going to escape the side effects of freshly blooming plants and its release of pollen that is a major trigger of seasonal allergies. Let’s talk about the impact of stress and lack of physical activity on the skin during the current self quarantine orders. Your face is a resident to 50 muscles and 20 of them are expression muscles. The sole purpose of these muscles is to assist in expressing emotions. In order for those muscles to hold the face firm you need to use them. If you can’t laugh right now, I understand, but you can probably watch a comedy and brighten your mood instead of news alerts about the coronavirus. According to science, the act of laughing or a simple smile can trigger a release of a happy chemicals which can instantly improve the mood. As a result you may appear more radiant and more approachable. What about your eye area, do you look tired? Is there a natural solution for dark circles? The eyes are the window to the soul, we want to look HAPPY not TIRED. The skin surrounding the eyes is extremely thin in relation to the rest of the skin on our body. Although the skin on the lips have a very similar structure and I’d recommend using a good eye cream on your lips to keep them hydrated instead of using those sticky, waxy products you might have used in the past. As we age, the skin ages too. Skin sagging causes wrinkles and they are enhanced when you have dark circles. But there is a lot we can do to maintain this delicate area of the skin. Occasional dark circles, or those that come and go are easy to work with and can be helped by making small adjustments in our lifestyle and creating an addition to our home care routine in a form of a gentle tapping massage. To see how it is done see the video above this post. Incidentally at the time of the video recording I had woken up with a terrible sinus congestion and you’ll notice how I use the tapping to help my puffy eyes. The truth is that our face doesn’t hide our stories, we can see it clearly the day that you don’t feel good, or when you didn’t get enough sleep by looking tired. The good news is that as soon as you catch up on sleep your face and your eyes look great. So what’s the secret to natural solutions for dark circles? Be good to yourself. Of course there are other reasons why we develop dark circles-seasonal allergies are those most frequently experienced by many people during spring and fall season. If you don’t know what triggers your allergies you might want to check with your allergist to find out what exactly you should avoid and help your body stay healthy. One of the old remedies passed on to me by my European grandmother is a local honey cure. The old saying goes, unless you are allergic to honey this is one home treatment that works every time. The fact is that bees collect the same pollen we are sensitive to makes it a perfect antidote to those uncomfortable spring congestions and puffy eyes. I hope you’ve enjoyed this post and don’t forget to subscribe to my podcast and have your questions answered live during the next episode. In addition to home remedies I recommend BOC Under Eye Shadow Eraser for both, puffy eyes and dark circles. My clients love it and you’ll love it too.

What Is Your Face Story?
Are you noticing frown lines? Wrinkles? Freckles are becoming dark spots? Do you have a question about your skin? Human face has over 20 muscles leading to hundreds of unique facial expressions. Those muscles attach directly to the skin and as a result we get many unwanted side effects caused by prolonged or repetitive expressions. Today, many people choose to get injections or some other procedure to erase the expression lines, others are looking for an alternative way to soften the lines as they don’t want to take any risk of looking unnatural. The good news is, you have a choice and that is given to you by Mother Nature. The Beauty On Command Method gives you guidance and tools on how to help your skin look younger NATURALLY. Please post your question on Contact Us page or request a Virtual Consultation with me, Yolanda, so that I can see your skin and can quickly help you understand what is happening and how you can repair the skin damage. How do we get wrinkles? Our body is held together by a glue-like substance, collagen and elastin, which allows the skin to return to its original shape quickly. Up until age of 25, our body supports us unconditionally as it produces the collagen and other nutrients at a steady pace awarding us with a forever radiant complexion. As we age we begin to lose collagen at the rate of 1% and if you are overexposing the skin to the sun it can even deplete itself up to 2%. As a result, the skin becomes thinner and less ‘springy’ as we age. Remember crinkles around the eyes eventually become wrinkles unless you help your body to get stronger. How do you do that? By simply nutrifying the skin from the inside, getting enough sleep and then protecting the skin with SPF. If you feel you want to begin using an eye cream then you’ll rebuild the skin’s strength from the outside. Nothing in worth having if you don’t make an effort … Theodore Roosevelt But there is hope, your own efforts leading to improving your lifestyle and remembering to be happy and optimistic towards life will help to preserve and make new collagen for years to come. And I, as a skin care expert, can lead you into the direction of your dreams into having a perfectly smooth and radiant skin for as long as you wish. I invite you to join my podcast Safe Natural Skin Care (scroll down to the bottom of the page to hear it now) where in each episode I will answer one question from my listeners on ways to deal with acne or skin aging naturally.

Welcome to Your Face Story Podcast
Yolanda Russo, skin care expert at Speranzi Facial Spa and creator of Beauty On Command shares practical, educational and encouraging content that saves you money and time when looking for natural solutions to younger and more radiant skin! Thanks to unexpected pause on life caused by coronavirus I am finally ready to offer beauty wellness advice and share my knowledge with many more people who are looking for natural solutions to beauty. Take a deep breath and enjoy. In my first episode I talk about spring cleaning for your body and mind in addition to your face. I want to show you how you can use up all of the skin care products you have purchased and never liked how they feel on the skin. Many products you have bought from the informarcials hoping you’ll look like the celebrity promoting those lotions and potions. What you don’t realize is that they get a facial often, maybe every week but especially the day off a performance. So their skin looks perfect and they can sell pretty much any skin care. So what do you do with those products? You don’t want to throw them out so let’s repurpose them. Any facial exfoliating product we can use on the top of the hands and the neck/chest area, body exfoliants you can use on the rest of the body and your feet. The skin on the neck/chest/hands is extremely delicate and won’t tolerate a harsh exfoliant so please make sure you only use a facial product on those areas. The hands and the neck give away your age before the face does. If you don’t have an exfoliant good for those areas you can use a freshly squeezed lemon juice or purchase Triple Exfoliating Cleanser, our most favorite product. If you have any face cream that feels too heavy and makes you feel sticky, you are right, it should not be used on the face. It will make your pores large and your makeup will slide off your face. For more about the spring cleaning for body and mind and your face listen to my first episode of my Your Face Story Podcast.

Bridal Skin Care Guide
  https://safenaturalskincare.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/360p_4086.mp4 Your wedding is once in a lifetime event captured on forever lasting pictures and the video. You absolutely want to look your best even if you happen to shed tears during this life changing day. To make this happen, it is important to set up a plan with your skin care professional at least six months in advance of the big day. It is not recommended for you to leave it to chance and do-it-yourself facials at home. During this time you are advised not to use any harsh products including the rotating brush that is known to harm the surface layer of the skin. The first step is a customized consultation focusing on your goals. After the initial skin analysis your skin care professional will recommend a proper skin care that goes along with your treatment. It is possible to have a healthy and radiant skin at any age. Of course, the treatments and the efforts of your skin professional are not going to be as effective if you don’t support it with a healthy lifestyle. . [button color=”red” size=”medium” link=”htpps://https://www.secure-booker.com/speranzifacialspa/MakeAppointment/Search.aspx” target=”blank” ]Book Free Consultation Now[/button] Here are some easy to follow tips you can implement anytime. Good nutrition is a key to successful outcome. If you are planning on following any type of diet please make sure to drink enough water to support the loss of body mass. Skin deprived of nutrients can begin to lose elasticity and special toning and hydrating treatments need to accompany your routine facials. That is why it’s very important to inform your skin care professional of the other venues you are undertaking in order to fit into that perfect dress. If a nutritionist is not an option please follow a reasonably healthy diet to avoid big sugar spikes which can affect your hormones and as a consequence create breakouts and even acne. What’s recommended for you at this time? Protein rich foods such as fish, eggs , sardines, avocados and chia seeds to assure a proper nutritional balance. Proper hydration helps to repair the skin and body. Alkaline water, coconut water  or even a gatorade once a day to rebalance the ph in the body. Stress most likely will create an acidic environment in your body which in turn can contribute to skin dehydration, dull looking skin and fine lines. Make sure to have at least 8 cups of water a day. Relaxation is needed as the day is getting closer and closer.  Breathing exercises and stress reducing activities such as yoga and meditation and massage are also recommended. Don’t leave the spray tan to a chance. You need to schedule it before your makeup trial session to make sure the tone of your makeup is matching the new look of your skin. Last facial is always going to be Speranzi Customized Oxygen Infusion Facial that can be done 3 days before the wedding. This is one of the safest but most impactful facial treatments to prepare your for the big day. Not only it re-hydrates the skin but it plumps it up and reduces dark circles while firming the skin of the face.

Supercharge Your Mind With Positive Thoughts
Click the play button below then sit back and relax https://safenaturalskincare.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/Breathing-for-Beauty-Exercise-new-2.mp3 What’s aging your skin might be as simple as counting your breaths. How many times over the course of the day you take a deep breath? Life is stressful and it begins with the early commute and traffic followed by work pressures and the alerts on your phone that come in the least opportune times. The reality is there is never a time that you can take a deep breath unless you allow it. We are in a complete control of what’s going on in our life even when it seems that it is a total opposite of that. Stress is abundant, so is the oxygen. You are the one who is to decide how to handle the stress, you can start hyperventilating and get a headache and get nothing done or you can choose to take a breath and in spite of insurmountable pressure, break down the situation to small and digestible pieces. Focus on the end in mind and treat it as a piece of a puzzle. Solve it. One piece at the time. Done. Now take a deep breath again and expect another puzzle to come along in a very short period of time but now you are an expert! You know how to solve any puzzle–one piece at the time. Even though this may sound very simplistic and the reality of is that it may take longer than expected to solve the puzzle but if you take the steps to keep you body and mind aligned you can solve anything. What is the process you might ask? I say, you’ve got this! All you need to do is BREATHE. Go to bed at night with your mind empty. Don’t drug the problems and situations that you’ve experienced during the day haunt you at night. You need the sleep not only to be ready for the next day but during restful sleep many thoughts come to your mind that help you to deal with issues much more effectively. Allow the subconscious mind help you to get there. Turn off the news and any of the blue light emitting gadgets at least 2 hours before bedtime. Before you open your eyes in the morning and set your foot on the floor set the intentions for the day. Take a breath and spend 2min-5 min contemplating and repeating gratitude statements to your conscious mind: [box type=”shadow” ]I am healthy. I am at peace. I am happy. May my family be at peace. May they be happy. May they be healthy. May my adversaries be in peace. May they be happy. May they be in peace. Take a breath [/box] For more tips and strategies schedule your Free Consultation or Oxygen Facial at Speranzi Facial Spa  The post Supercharge Your Mind With Positive Thoughts appeared first on Safe Natural Skin Care.
