Of course we have all heard that drinking pure water is good for the body. Another little known fact is that our body assimilates liquid more efficiently from foods or liquids that contain properties that allow our system to grab and hold on to the molecules. The hydration from eating an apple or watermelon and other fruits and veggies is better "taken up" into the system than pouring water from a bottle. One great drink you can make at home as a "cocktail" after work is :
4-8 oz. of Sparkling Water
grated fresh ginger ( a small bud, skin removed)
a slice of fresh lemon
1/8 tsp. of cayenne pepper
Ginger is a natural anti-inflammatory, lemon is antibacterial , and the cayenne is great for vascular health. All these things add up to prettier, healthier. skin!

Mineral Makeup
Appearance has always been a problem for patients after medical esthetic procedures. They say, in a voice of desperation, "When can I apply makeup again?" Most medical esthetic services require a delay in time before the application of the typical makeup products. The answer to that dilemma was the formulation of mineral makeup. Made up of primarily natural minerals, with no unnatural colors or preservatives, it is safe to apply immediately after superficial peels and microdermabrasion, and as soon as re-establishment of the initial epithelia has occurred on the more invasive procedures. Because of this advantage clients can leave the treatment room and feel comfortable going back to work, shopping and out to dinner. The Mineral Base covers redness, is anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory, and protects from the sun while outside for short periods. So go ahead and protect the investment you have made in your skin!!
