Common Skin Care Blunders to Avoid!
Posted on March 14th, 2010 No commentsYou wear sunscreen every day, don’t smoke, and spare no expense on skin creams and potions. But despite your best intentions, you may still be making errors that can lead to premature aging. Here are some common skincare blunders to avoid.
1. Over Exfoliating
People with dry skin often think exfoliating can help by sloughing away dry flakes and dead skin cells. Yet, over exfoliation can make dry skin worse by impairing your skin’s ability to hold onto water, and can also ruin your natural moisture barrier, which leads to dull, lifeless and older looking skin. Again, this is why it is so important to know your own skin. Just by paying attention to your skin you will know when and how often you should exfoliate. We have a short video coming out soon where we talk about exfoliation and the importance of exfoliation. Hopefully this will be out in a few weeks.
2. Using the Same Moisturizer Year-Round
Some skin types are oily in the summer and dry in the winter. This is because there is less moisture in the air during the winter season and skin can easily become dehydrated. If you have oily skin, don’t assume you should use an oil-free moisturizer all year around–or that you can go without any moisturizer at all. In fact, because of your skin care regimen you could be causing your skin to produce more oil. Using harsh chemicals and drying products will actually accent the problem. Again, knowing your skin and what products would be best for your skin type is of utmost importance. If you have mature skin, using an oil cleanser, and an anti-aging serum or an all natural moisturizer on your skin will definitely improve your skin all the way around. One other tidbit, it is vital to change up our moisturizers and skin care regimens.
3. Using a Harsh Cleanser
People love the tight, tingly feeling they get after using foaming cleansers and bar soaps, but that feeling just means your natural lipids have been stripped away, leaving your complexion parched, dry and more prone to premature wrinkling. If you are using any cleansers with Sodium Lauryl Sulfate I would ditch them as soon as possible. This ingredient is extremely harsh on the skin and is a very aggressive detergent. Instead use our Organic Cleansing Oil for the Oil Cleansing Method, OCM, this one step will make the world of difference in your skin. Pores will be reduced, wrinkles will soften and diminish and your skin will become more youthful and refined. We also offer a gel with 8% hydroxy’s, which will gently cleanse your skin, but will not strip it of it’s vital nutrients and natural moisture barrier. Honestly, look at your cleanser, you may be shocked at what your putting on your skin. Changing your cleanser is the first step toward younger, beautiful skin.
Until next time,

Looking for a way to tone and smooth your skin?
Posted on January 21st, 2010 No commentsLooking for a way to tone and smooth your skin? Is your skin dull and lifeless? Do you live in a large city? If you answered yes to any of these questions then you’re a candidate for our Reparative Anti-Aging Treatment Mask! Kaolin Clay gently withdraws excess oil and pollutants from our faces. Even if it’s extremely cold where you live and your skin is chapped and dry, a soothing clay mask will be extremely beneficial.
This clay treatment will gently draw impurities from the skin without removing natural oils while simultaneously exfoliating, cleansing, and stimulating circulation. White clay is suitable for all skin types, whether it be oily, blemish prone, normal, sensitive, dry, or mature skin. The high mineral content of clay rejuvenates the skin while exfoliating and stimulating blood circulation to the skin. Regular use of clay facials will remove dead skin cells, improve circulation to the skin, remove debris from the pores and bring about a smooth healthy glow.
After using this treatment mask it is important to hydrate your skin. Applying our Organic Beauty Exlixer will leave your skin feeling soft, smooth and kissable.
This treatment mask will transform the look and feel of your skin with these powerful, nourishing antioxidants, vitamins, extracts and proteins. Your skin will appear brighter, younger, more refined and feel instantly firmer and at the same time reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, dull skin and discoloration.
As we grow older we tend to have drier more mature skin, and my mother who is 68 years old loves this mask. It doesn’t dry her skin out at all. That should tell us something.
I hope you ladies are having a wonderful New Year. It’s only just begun.
Until Next Time,
Tracy

New Eye Product Coming Soon!
Posted on December 17th, 2009 No commentsHI Ladies,
Just a quick note to let you know that I’ve been reviewing an amazing eye product. The reviews on this product have been quite amazing from other sources, but we’re still in the process of testing this out for ourselves. This eye product tightens, firms, corrects, etc…….I believe it will also last close to a year, so price wise you can’t beat it.
We here at Nature’s Genesis plan on testing the product for a month at least. We’ll let you know at that time if we will carry it or not. I’m really hoping it will work. I have my figures crossed:) So far so good!
We also have some other exciting things in the works. You ladies will love them. I’m completely sold on these wrinkle reducing finds. Wow, is all I can say. I can’t let the cat out of the bag yet, sorry!
In another month I’m hoping to have these on our website.
This has been short, but sweet.
Have a Merry Christmas,
Tracy

Firm and Tighten Your Skin!
Posted on December 10th, 2009 No commentsLast week we started our series of articles on our Reparative Collection. We are going to continue along this line with a review of our Reparative Anti-Aging Serum. As you already know Alpha Lipoic Acid is one of the more potent ingredients found in our Reparative Serum.
Listed below you will find the anti-aging benefits of using facial products that are loaded with Alpha Lipoic Acid.
Alpha Lipoic Acid works by:
- Protecting skin cells
- Refining skin’s texture
- Reduces pore size, imperfections, puffiness, and uneven skin tone
Many of you who are into skincare have heard of Dr. Perricone. He’s the Guru of skincare products that contain Alpha lipoic acid. This is what he had to say regarding Alpha lipoic acid. Those of you you are dealing with enlarged pores will appreciate this tidbit of information.
“Perricone: Alpha lipoic acid can increase energy levels in the cell. Oil glands that are energy-deficient produce abnormal ratios of oils secreted on the surface of the skin. When the proportion of these oils is off, the pores begin to clog. My theory is that alpha lipoic acid increases energy production in the oil gland, normalizing the oils secreted, which shrinks the pore size. Without abnormal oils clogging and stretching the pores, these tiny openings gradually normalize until they are invisible to the eye.”
It also helps with the prevention of glycation – where sugar and the protein of the collagen are cross-linked, leading to stiffness, wrinkles, lines and aging of the skin.
Nature’s Genesis Reparative Anti-Aging Serum provides firming and rejuvenation to the skin, while MSM reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by stimulating the production of collagen resulting in an increase of suppleness and elasticity. Combined with the rejuvenating and firming benefits of Alpha Lipoic Acid and Co-Enzyme Q10, reduces dark spots, and helps to improve color tone. Moisture levels are raised and fine lines and wrinkles are reduced resulting in a smoother, firmer more radiant skin.
We are going to be adding more video testimonies to our website in the near future, so keep your eyes open.

Have a great week,

Posted on June 1st, 2009 No commentsMSM has a significance, because sulfur compounds are found everywhere throughout the body and MSM is the 3rd largest ingredient found in the human body.
MSM is a natural form of organic sulfonyl sulfur compound that is found in the fluid of all living organisms. It is present in a variety of foods, including most fresh raw fruits and green vegetables, milk, meat, seafood, and some grains. It is also found in many common beverages such as milk, coffee and tea. It is, in essence, a pure white, odorless, essentially tasteless, water-soluble crystalline solid sulfur powder.
MSM makes cell walls permeable, allowing water and nutrients to freely flow into cells and allowing wastes and toxins to properly flow out. The body uses MSM along with Vitamin C to create new, healthy cells, and MSM provides the flexible bond between the cells. Without proper levels of MSM, our bodies are unable to build good healthy cells, and this leads to problems such as lost flexibility, scar tissue, wrinkles, varicose veins, and dry cracking skin.
Restore elasticity with our MSM skin care products.
