avance-curesUnfortunately, the stresses of everyday life can negatively affect the body and skin, resulting in broken capillaries, loss of firmness, skin lesions, dryness, increased signs of aging and more. However, there is one ingredient straight from the sea that is of benefit to our skin’s state of mind and health - seaweed.

CURES by Avancé uses seaweed in the majority of its skin care products, making it easy for everyone to benefit from the ocean floor without getting wet. Seaweed absorbs all of the richness from the sea and is 10x richer than land plants in vitamins and trace elements, including: mineral salts, amino acids, lipids, proteins and Vitamins A, C, B1, B12, E, PP, K + D. Seaweed helps to cleanse, tone, detoxify, oxygenate, revitalize and firm the skin. In addition, it re-establishes the natural moisture levels in skin while improving blood and lymphatic circulation. And seaweed is known for its anti-inflammatory actions, as well as its therapeutic properties which ultimately help to reduce excessive irritation and redness (rosacea sufferers rejoice).

Thank you, Avancé, for capturing the richness of the sea and delivering it straight to our door step.

We all want strong, healthy nails. While I wish mine were a tad bit longer, I know I am giving them the best care possible. How you care for your nails says a lot about you, your health and your style. And everyone notices nails, right? Thank goodness for my friends at Become. I got a sneak peek at two fantastic new products that will help get your nails in shape. They did mine!

The Age Resistant Nail Nourisher protects, conditions and softens the cuticles. And it's all-natural formula contains a blend of nourishing oils, herbal extracts, multivitamins and UV filters. Age Resistant Nail Strengthener conditions and toughens nails, as well as protects them against dehydration caused by the use of harsh detergents and soapy water. The pale pink color compliments the natural color of your nails. Brilliant. These two products are due to launch soon, so stay tuned! Until then, you can give your hands lots of love with Become's Rejuvenating Hand Cream. It's rich in vitamins and Aloe and leaves hands super soft. I love that the formula absorbs quickly, too.

Scars happen. They are a part of everyday life. Whether your scar resulted from surgery, an accident, stretch marks, acne, a burn or life's little blunders, each scar has a story to tell. I remember each and every story of mine ... from the first time shaving (shin) to moving my mini refrigerator into my dorm room at college (knee) to a biopsy (décolleté), and more. They come in all shapes, colors and sizes. Your scar may have become a part of your personal style. On the other hand, you may view it as a nuisance.

Fortunately, there are a lot of great products on the market to help minimize the appearance of scars. I am personally testing one at the moment, Mederma® Cream plus SPF 30. I was thrilled to learn the most recent version of Mederma contains an SPF.

Mederma® shares
A scar is the result of your body repairing an open wound. Your skin creates fibrous tissue to replace normal skin. The larger the skin area that's affected, the longer it will take the wound to heal and the greater the chance of a noticeable scar.
I began my Mederma journey several weeks ago. I've noticed that my most recent scar is beginning to fade already. My very first scar, however, will take more time. And that makes sense, as it has been around the longest. Start your own Mederma journey and share your findings with msf. Look for my updates in upcoming monthly product reviews.

Is it possible to brighten your complexion and illuminate your eyes in only 7 minutes? I am here to tell you that it is. Truly.

lightboxWhen I first heard about Orlane's LIGHTBOX Absolute Radiance, I was excited to try it, yet a bit skeptical. Touting to deliver "The Cinderella effect" in 7 minutes is a big claim and made me wonder how this could be done. Well, I was not only impressed with this facial-in-a-box, but absolutely astounded.

The kit is extremely convenient with 6 individualized applications for those big events in your life. My first big event was hot yoga. Yes, you heard me right. While it wasn't really a big event, my goal was to see how long my Cinderella effect would last. My fear was that I would lose the effect once I got home and showered. I kid you not, the undeniable glow lasted into the next morning.

I recently used my LIGHTBOX for an evening event. When the clock struck midnight, my skin did not lose its brilliance. I'd say it's a good 24-hour glow. It leaves you looking refreshed, rested and simply radiant. For $200, it's like getting 6 facials for less than $36 a piece (give or take a dollar, as tax will vary). Unheard of!

The products in the LIGHTBOX:

Dazzling Eyes Ritual

First, the eye serum goes above and below your eyes. Then, apply the eye contour patches. This regenerates skin cells, as well as toning and hydrating the skin around your eyes. The phyto-therapeutic complex will soothe the skin and remove toxins.

Glowing Skin Masque

Mix the powder into the cream to oxygenate the masque. It illuminates, renews and rehydrates the skin by bringing skin's vitality to the surface.

Evanescent Cream
Apply the cream all over your face (and neck) and watch your skin transform into pure perfection. The ingredients not only plump up skin and draw oxygen down into the epidermis, they brighten and embellish, as well.

So you can have your red carpet moment - up to 6 times! Even if the carpet resides in your own home.
