My Sun Damaged Vacation!

(Don't forget to look at the specials that are posted for May.  They are listed to the right of this blog under their own category - Monthly Specials.)

I just got back from a visit to North Carolina and Florida and I was rather taken back by the horror stories I heard and saw about skin cancer.  Two of the women I had dinner with had cancers removed from their noses and one lady had to have the end of her nose rebuilt. It was very traumatic.  Where ever I went in Florida I saw people running around with fresh bandages or bandaids  covering newly removed growths from their faces, and many from their legs.  I'm sure there were many spots removed from backs as well. I just couldn't see those.  There seemed to be a dermatology clinic on every corner.  It struck me hard because out here in the East, we're aware of the problem but it doesn't seem as obvious. I don't think I will ever go without sunscreen again, even on cloudy days. You shouldn't either. I was in Florida for ten days covered from head to toe with our Advanced Protection SPF 30 and never got a speck of red.  It's not greasy and has no scent, and the protection level is very high. A full description of this product is listed under " Sensitive to Normal  Products" on the right side of this blog. Please take the time to read about it.

Update on Rapid Response Line Filler and Nutra Peptide Hair System

 If you bought Rapid Response Line Filler in the container with the roll-on applicator and had a hard time getting the top off, I can help.  First, the cap covering the roller ball just pulls off. It doesn't screw off.  Then, to get the flow of product going, give the bottom of the container a hard push up. You'll feel or hear it open. Then turn the bottom control to get the flow moving.    Use small circular motions to apply the filler to the areas on your face where you have lines.(Sometimes I use my finger to spread it, too).   This tube packaging is handy to throw in your purse or suitcase.   Our Refreshing Anti-Puff Eye Gel applies the same way. You can find these products listed on the right side of this page. These products are also available in a regular one ounce container.

I've had some surprising comments from customers using the Nutra Peptide Shampoo System, especially about new hair growth.  Sara in Wisconsin and Leslie in Connecticut are enjoying new hair along their receding temple areas.  Both are using all three products. They both commented about the overall health of their hair.  Marie in Texas has new hair growth all over her head (so says her hairdresser).  It is very clear to see and her hair has grown in length surprisingly and has had to be cut more frequently.  She is thrilled!  For people who don't want to use harsh chemicals,  this is a very effective, mild botanical hair system that nourishes your scalp and hair, and stimulates growth.   A list of ingredients is available. Please let me know how you are doing with these products so I can pass the information along.
