  Organic Face Creams 

  Not all anti aging face creams are created equal. There are basically two sides to chose from: organic and inorganic. You will find with research that the organic skin care products not only are the healthier choice, but it also works better on your epidermis.

  After watching my face develop more and more wrinkles over the years, I decided I needed to start using a cream that would work best for me. I didn’t mind growing older. I just wanted to look healthier! I did some research, and found that the inorganic skin care products I was using may actually be harming my body with “Parabens” – synthetic chemicals used as an effective and powerful preservative. These parabens have been linked to potentially cancerous cells.

  On the other hand, I found that a good quality, organic, anti aging face cream wouldn’t contain any of these chemicals that were bad for me. I found they had natural ingredients that actually helped my body slow the aging process of my skin by adding nutrients and collagen-building essences to it.
  One of the most fascinating organic products I came across, and ended up choosing to use in my daily skin care routine, contained Jojoba Oil. It is a natural oil, similar to human sebum (your skin oil), which means that it can work together with your skin and moisturize it. This organic oil is very balancing, and it works to prevent both dry and overly oily skin. Because my face has both oily and dry patches on it, I knew this anti aging face cream was going to work for me.
  In my research, I found that the best anti aging face cream products are all natural organic creams that help your face look great! Make sure you use natural products that are safe on your skin, and use creams that don’t contain harmful ingredients. Stay away from parabens and other harmful manmade chemicals, and you should get the results you want!

  What is Xtend Tk? 

  What is Xtend TK?

  Xtend TK a unique patented form of ‘bio-active’ keratin and is a new innovation anti aging ingredient found from sheep wool in New Zealand. This new ingredient is so powerful,
  it’s nickname is called “liquid skin”. This new ingredient pricey, therefore, major name brand companies are not using this product
  as they are spending their money on marketing dollars and celebrity endorsements. Xtend Life uses this ingredient in all their
  skin care products. Rather than wasting money on big name celebrities to say they are using their products, they are investing their
  dollars into top quality products that actually work!

  So what exactly is Xtend TK? You probably have heard of keratin. Keratin is a protein found in the body which helps to keep our
  skin firm and elastic and gives the skin its strength and flexibility.

  • The addition of Xtend TK to a basic cream results in a significant increase in hydration and elasticity, with results being evident at the first point tested (2 hr) and continuing for at least 24 hours
  • Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
  • Promotes firmness and elasticity in the skin
  • Reduces redness associated with inflammation or sensitive skin
  • Improves the brightness and radiance of the skin, giving your face a more even, creamy complexion

  Why has it been nicknamed Liquid Skin?

  Very similar to the basic protein found in human skin, which in turn means it’s POWERFULLY EFFECTIVE in rejeventating the skin’s eleasticity. Xtend TK will reduce the appearance of wrinkles by forming an invisible layer over the surface of your skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wringkles. The invisible film also refracts light, so your skin appears smoother than it actually is!

  Restore your skins collagen and elasticity
  Xtend TK stimulates your skin to regenerate it’s own collagen. As you get older, your skin looses it’s collagen and elasticity which is the reason behind the wrinkles and sagging skin. You cannot simply apply products to your skin
  that contain collagen. The molecule is too large to be absorbed by the skin. Yet, you see many large name companies using collagen as an ingredient. Xtend TK is proven in clinical trials to stimulate not only the regrowth of collagen but also another vital skin protein, elastin. As your collagen and elastin levels increase, your wrinkles will slowly but surely disappear … and your skin will regain a youthful glow!

  
  Production of New Skin Cells
  The product contains low concentrations zinc protein complexes which are useful for both the repair and maintenance of the skin, and copper protein complexes which play a vital role in skin health.

  Both zinc and copper, when bound to a protein, have been shown to be very effective in regenerating new tissue, as well as increasing the synthesis of collagen and elastin. Increased thickness of the outer layer of the skin, results in a reduction of fine lines and reduction in the depth of wrinkles.

  

  How long to see results?

  Studies show a sustained 14% improvement in skin moisture retention over 18 days. They also show a sustained improvement in skin elasticity of 42% over 18 days

  Antioxidants

  UV exposure and pollutants in the air can cause oxidative stress, aging your skin more quickly. By fighting free radicals, your skin can overcome the effects of oxidative stress with antioxidants. Xtend TK is a new type of enzymatic antioxidant, as well as naturally stimulating your bodys own antioxidants. Just one molecule of these powerful Xtend TK antioxidants can quench millions of free radicals!
  

  A brighter complexion

  Xtend TK increases the production of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione. This helps reverse brown pigmentation in the skin caused by UV exposure and environmental pollutants. The major biochemical pathway leading to inflammation and redness in the skin, called PGE2 production, is blocked by Xtend TK. This inflammation will lead to a further breakdown of important structural protein in the skin if left unchecked.
  

  Xtend Life uses Xtend TK in their anti aging products and this is the only skincare line I personally use. I love the ingredients and the effects it has on my skin. Try them out, they have a money back guarantee so you have nothing to loose. Please submit your personal reviews to me and I’ll publish them on my blog.

  Why use a hydrating body cream? 

  Just about everyone uses some type of body lotion, but most products are just a topical lotion and not a hydrating body cream. Although a normal body lotion will moisturize the top of the skin, a hydrating cream will actually penetrate the skin up to 6, even 7 layers deep. There are many benefits to using a body cream versus a lotion.

  1. True body creams that work into your skin are organically made from natural ingredients, such as Jojoba Oil and some sea kelps. By using ingredients like these and other natural enzymes, they allow your body to retain the full benefit of the moisturizer.

  2. It can be used over your whole body, not just to one specific area, like face, hands, neck or feet. However, it is best to use separate moisturizers on your face and neck due to the delicate make up of your epidermis in those areas.

  3. Body cream is thicker than lotion, so a little goes a long way. If you do your homework, you will be able to find a cream that suits your budget in the long run.

  4. Because body cream is designed to penetrate your skin, it helps it become more balanced, causing dry spots to absorb more moisture and oily spots to absorb less. The result is an overall tone and texture to your skin.

  5. Finally, whether you decide on a hydrating body cream or just a plain lotion, make sure that you choose one that has a UV light protection in it. Your skin is like a finely tuned instrument and it is important that no matter how you decide to keep it smooth, you protect it from the sun. Choose a product that will protect you to the level you need in your daily activities.

  Xtend Life has an incredible product. Their all natural age defense body lotions for men and women penetrate deeply into your skin, to nourish it naturally. In addition to making you look younger on the outside it will also work daily to rejuvenate the health of your skin which pays major dividends in the long term.

  Xtend Life Products 

  A review of Xtend Life Products and my personal recommendations:

  Natural products are always mol than the man made or synthetic ones. But there are some people who hold the opinion that natural skin care products are superior to other products as the former category does not contain chemicals. It should thus be noted that the natural products are a bit kinder to our skin.

  From cars, food to energy, customers are now realizing the advantages associated with natural products. Many a people are looking forward to investigate the organic and natural skin care products. The natural anti aging products are some of the highly admired ones when it comes to natural skin care. With rising admiration and popularity of natural products, the skin care creams, masks and lotions are rapidly developing to serve the target market.

  When you shop for the natural skin acre items, it is imperative to pay more attention to the ingredients used. These ingredients can let you know what exactly to expect from the skin care product. It is good to look out for the ingredients which are not harmful for your skin type.

  A major benefit of the natural anti aging products is that they can soften your skin it make it look smoother. When a person ages with time, his or her skin looses all the elasticity thereby beginning to look rough. The natural products help in penetrating the dermis of the skin in a better way as compared to the synthetic creams so that the skin appears to be more radiant and fresh.

  It is highly important to note that the skin care product you choose doesn’t include the fragrances. You might love the smell of the products due to these fragrances, but they are not good for your skin. You should indeed seek for natural scents without any harmful toxins.

  If you are looking forward to have a hundred percent natural product to reduce your skin color, what can be better than Xtend Life Product’s natural whitening day cream? This product helps not just to lighten the skin color’s but it even produces the anti aging benefits.

  Also, it is a fact that every two weeks or so, one should give the skin some extra cleansing in order to remove the unhealthy and harmful toxins. The Deep Cleansing Mask for women by Xtend Life is made to be used by all skin types. There is also a deep cleansing mask for men. All you need to do is to leave this mask on the face for half an hour and then rinse it off with fresh water. You will observe a glowing and fresh skin.

    Hello, I must say that I haven’t tried the product line yet but I am going to. I am a frequent reader of your blog and subscribe to your newsletter. I never seen someone so passionate about a product line before. You must really love the results to dedicate all this time on a blog just to tell other men and women about this. I recently had a baby and have a few stretch marks. I am going to buy the active body lotion for women. I’ll write in a future testimony about my experience. Thanks again for your advice and taking the time to let us all know about this great product line.

    Hi Michelle, the active body lotion is an Excellent choice for stretch marks! I’ve had 2 children myself. For my first one, I didn’t know about the product. I used the product after my first child and it firmed my skin and dramatically reduced the stretch mark appearance. For my second child, I used the product while I was pregnant and it prevented my stretch marks all together. It’s really a miracle. Good luck with your new baby.

  Wrinkle Masks 

  
  

  What is a Wrinkle Mask?

  In short,here’s the 411 on wrinkle masks:

  § You should use two different masks. Use one mask to deep clean, and another to deep hydrate. The first one basically gets the gunk (toxins that build up) out of your skin and prepares it to receive moisture provided by the second mask.

  § Masks that use natural and organic ingredients seem to be the safest to use, as well as are able to actually penetrate into the skin instead of staying on top of it. This is true for both sets of masks.

  § Some ingredients to look for are Kaolin, Manuka Honey, and Xtend TK. Xtend TK has been scientifically proven to stimulate the regrowth and rebuilding of collagen. Collagen is the protein in your skin that makes it smooth and pliable.

  § Apply the wrinkle mask a couple of times a month to your face. Be sure to include your neck in the treatment too because the skin that makes up your neck is very delicate. If it is not sagging now, gravity will soon make sure it is!

  § Do some additional investigation into any product that you are interested in purchasing. There is a plethora of information available about natural, safe ingredients, as well as ingredients that are harmful to your skin.

  Now that I know more about the benefits of using a wrinkle mask, I look forward to the reward of having some of my facial lines lessened and my smooth complexion returned. Try one out, you’ll see.

    Thanks for the info. I always look for natural and organic ingredients in my skin care and have really found that moisturizer is so key for anti-wrinkle as well as a whole foods diet! I also take Vidazorb OPC age defense which is a wonderful chewable probiotic that I love. I think it requires a good balance!

  Remove Dark Circles 

  Under eye circles are a cosmetic concern for many people, but they do not have to be a permanent part of your life. There are many methods you can use to reduce the severity of these circles, and, in some cases, make them disappear completely.

  One quick trick you can use is to place cool slices of fresh cucumber over your eyes in order to lighten the circles. While some people swear by cucumbers, others prefer to remove under eye circles by placing cool tea bags or refrigerated spoons over their eyes for 10 minutes or so.

  If these kitchen-based remedies fail to work satisfactorily, there are plenty of over the counter creams that have been designed to help remove under eye circles.

  How to Achieve Soft Healthy Skin Naturally 

  Achieving soft healthy skin naturally is the absolute best way to get that amazing complexion you’ve always wanted. With the right strategies you can have awesome skin without expensive creams, lotions, gels, facial fillers, medication or even surgery.

  
  

  You save your money for more important factors in your life and you actually look and feel better because you have adopted all natural strategies which are more holistic and work with your body to solve the root of the problem.

  One of your biggest aims to achieve healthy skin is to properly nourish your body. Most women, and some guys too, spend a small fortune on skin care products to younger and more attractive, but this can be achieved using natural methods too.

  Here are 3 essential tips for achieving soft healthy skin naturally:

  1. Eat good stuff!

  Eating healthy doesn’t have to suck. There are so many amazing fruits out there that are packed full of antioxidants which fight free radicals and prevent damage to your skin. Also, when you eat foods rich in salt and fat, or sugary snacks, the cholesterol makes you prone to acne breakouts and blemishes.

  The order of the day is foods like blueberries, kiwi fruit, oranges, spinach, broccoli, carrots, nuts and legumes such as lentils or quinoa.

  2. Sleep for a little longer

  I’m a morning person and I like to work out early, but that doesn’t mean that I sacrifice on sleep. Lack of sleep dulls your senses and leaves you with bags under your eyes. It also makes the body less able to fight off free radicals from damaging skin cells.

  If you get up early, go to bed earlier too. As you sleep, your skin repairs itself so it is in your best interests to get at least 8 hours a night. That’s why they call it beauty sleep, right?

  3. Butter, oil and fats

  I’m not talking about a greasy fast food meal here. Rather, I’m advising you to include more natural oils like avocado oil, almond oil, grapeseed oil and shea butter that are natural ingredients which have been clinically proven to moisturize your skin fantastically. When choosing a moisturizer, keep an eye out for these ingredients.

  Also, a good omega-3 fish oil supplement will give your body vital essential fatty acids to aid the repair of skin cells, giving you a glowing complexion.

  So you see, you can get soft healthy skin naturally, and it’s often safer and cheaper too!

  Healthy, Glowing Skin: Top Secrets for Revealing Your Best Skin 

  
  

  Healthy glowing skin is one common trait of younger complexions that we all admire. It’s no surprise then that we are all looking for the best skincare products for healthy glowing skin to restore that radiant, smooth texture. As we start to age, it seems to get harder to attain, and instead we are left more often with new wrinkles, some sagging from gravity and time, and discoloration along with the loss of a smooth texture and radiance of youth. Lucikly, there IS something you can do about it.

  The secret to a healthy complexion starts on the inside, of course. Drink lots of water, 8 or more glasses each day, just as you’ve always heard. And, be sure to eat a diet that is rich in vitamins, minerals, and helpful antioxidants that battle the damage that free radicals can cause. Beyond water and a good diet, you will also want to find a good product that protects, restores, and rejuvenates—in a very specific way: through stimulating the growth of new collagen and elastin cells. Why is this so important? Because this is the best way to reverse aging and turn back time to reduce or even eliminate wrinkles and skin discoloration. New collagen and elastin proteins create a smooth texture, and a soft, radiant appearance.

  The best skin creams will also contain ingredients that protect from further damage, such as powerful antioxidants like Coenzyme Q10. You’ll also want to search for natural ingredients, and those that have been clinically proven in scientific trials to product real results. Any company can pay for advertising and can talk up their product, but I prefer only selecting products from companies that have also invested in scientific research.

  So what are the important ingredients to look for in trying to restore healthy glowing skin? XtendTK is a natural form of keratin that has been shown to restore collagen and elastin. In fact, studies showed an improvement of 42% in elasticity over a period of 18 days. This is an all natural product that is entirely safe, and really seems to work.

  Another ingredient to look for is an advanced form of the potent antioxidant Coenzyme Q10. It’s called Phytessence Wakame, and it is derived from natural Japanese sea kelp. It protects from free radicals, and most importantly, it has been scientifically proven to be absorbed through 7 layers, down to where it can really add benefit. Be careful when selecting creams that contain collagen, as the molecules are far too large to be absorbed! These are useless and are still marketed and listed on labels because most consumers don’t really know the difference.

  Finally, when shopping for the best face cream for a natural radiant complexion, consider a product with high quality natural moisturizers and emollient ingredients such as grapeseed oil, Babassu oil, and active Manuka honey. All of these amazing ingredients are far superior to the chemical petroleum based ingredients found in most common brands, and these are all safe enough to eat, so they definitely won’t harm your health.

  I highly recommend the Xtend Life skin care products, not only because their products are all natural and contain the best possible ingredients for the money, but because their products work and are even guaranteed! Clinical studies have proven real results. The regeneration of collagen and elastin are key, along with the long list of other high quality, non chemical ingredients that you can feel good about applying to your skin.

  Oil Free Anti Aging Facial Moisturizer: How to Find The Best Product 

  When searching for the best oil free anti-aging facial moisturizer, you will want to pay attention to the ingredients on the label. The reason is that not all oils are bad for your skin, but many commonly used ingredients are. You will want a product that is non pore-clogging, or “non-comedogenic”, as it is called. Certain natural oils are actually wonderful for your face as a moisturizer, even if you are looking for something that is oil free because you are battling acne, rosacea, or oily skin in general. In fact, just because you suffer from one of these conditions doesn’t mean you don’t need some of the anti aging and anti inflammatory properties of a good moisturizer product. You just have to understand what to look for.

  First of all, you will want to avoid any oil that is petroleum based. Mineral oil or lanolin, for example, are known to cause breakouts in some people. Mineral oil is a common ingredient in many products because it is inexpensive, but it actually isn’t good for you. There are many superior natural moisturizers and emollients, especially for those looking for an oil free product.

  One thing to look for is Babassu oil or wax, a very lightweight ingredient that is easily absorbed into the skin, without any pore-clogging activity. It comes from the Babassu palm from the Brazilian Amazon, and it has been used for centuries to soothe skin. It works great on oily complexions as a gentle moisturizer. This all natural ingredient has many wonderful benefits.

  An excellent emollient is Maracuja passion fruit extract. It contains a natural essential fatty acid that revitalizes and restores a velvety soft complexion. It’s also known to regulate the production of oil or sebum. This is a great choice for an oil free product.

  When it comes to anti aging moisturizers, you will also need some ingredients that both protect from further damage, as well as boost the growth of new collagen and elastin. These are the two proteins that are important for a youthful complexion, with firmer texture. Antioxidants battle free radical damage, which are responsible for wrinkles, age spots, and cellular damage that causes aging signs to appear. One of the best ingredients for regeneration of collagen and elastin is XtendTK, and one of the best potent natural antioxidant ingredients is Phytessence Wakame. For a dramatic anti wrinkle ingredient, look for Nano-Lipobelle H EQ10. All of these anti-aging moisturizer ingredients have been proven in scientific studies to reduce or reverse common signs of aging.

  The next time you are shopping for an oil free anti-aging facial moisturizer, just read the label carefully. I prefer using all natural ingredients that are safe. Don’t avoid moisturizers and oils just because you have acne or oily skin, just be sure to get the right ingredients that will work for you.

    Anti-Aging products and Acne prone skin (for men)?I am a 28-year-old asian guy who eoyjned acne-free beautiful skin when I was in my early teens ’til age 26. It all went downhill from there. Acne attacked my skin and now I look ugh’. Fortunately, with help from dermatologists my battles with it has stabilized though I still have acne scars and occassional acne on my oily skin. I’m getting older and I know by age 30 men should start using anti-aging products to combat skin aging.The problem is dermatologists forbid me from using any moisturizers (even those that are high-quality) and limits me with a facial wash and toner only (completely skipping step 3 of skin care). I admit it has done help, my acne problems have stabilized. But I’m worried about my skin not getting any anti-aging treatments and it’s showing signs already. This is quite a problem for me because all anti-aging products are all in moisturizer form (milk, gel, cream, mask, and emulsions) all things which I can’t use because my skin reacts to them negatively.

  3 Skin Care Tips For Total Beginners 

  If you don’t know how to get rid of your wrinkles, cure your sagging skin, clear up acne and blemishes or get that supermodel glow then help is at hand.

  Consider this article the beginners guide to skin care tips. By the end of this article I guarantee you’ll know more about healthy skin and anti aging than most other people.

  1. Eating the right foods

     Skin care tip number one is to eat a healthy diet. Use the 80/20 rule here. Eat strictly healthy, natural and whole foods 80% of the time. The kind of foods you need to be eating to get the most awesome, gorgeous skin are things like blackberries which are full of powerful antioxidants, dark green leafy vegetables which contain vital nutrients and minerals and fish and nuts, both of which contain essential proteins and fatty acids to give your skin that glowing, radiant look!

  

  2. Supplement your diet

     It can be difficult to get every single vitamin and nutrient you need from your food. It’s also very difficult to measure just how much of it you get. For that reason, I strongly recommend a top quality, natural multivitamin supplement to ensure your body gets everything it needs to run at optimum performance. Also, I have had fantastic results on overall skin tone and suppleness by also including omega-3 capsules into my daily routine. Not only that, they are great for joints, hair, nails, your brain and your eyes!

  3. All natural ingredients

     So many skin care products just plain suck. When looking for a skin care range, always read the label and go with a natural skin care product. You want to see high quality, cutting edge ingredients like Xtend TK, CoenzymeQ10, and Phytessence Wakame. Although you might not have heard of them yet, trust me, you will very shortly. These products contain vital antioxidants, which prevent skin damage due to free radicals, and also allow your body to create its own collagen and elastin – both of which are proteins essential to the anti aging process.

  If you follow these three skin care tips on a daily basis, you cannot fail to get amazing results! You will save a whole lot of money that would otherwise be wasted on products that don’t work and junk food that won’t get you the skin you have always desired.

  Try them out today and see how amazing going au natural can be!
