Real Hair Color in a Marker, That’s the TouchBack Way

Those of you not familiar with the Touchback Marker, will find this product amazing, I know I have. I have been using TouchBackPlus Color Shampoo and Color Conditioner for touching up Grays, and I get great results, but I do have to wash my hair and sometimes time is of the essence. The TouchBack Marker however, is an ingenious product.  It  is “real hair color” in a marker.  It is so easy to apply, and is a fast touch-up techinique to cover unsightly gray roots in just minutes. The best thing about Touchback Marker is that you don’t have to wash your hair for it to work its magic.  The TouchBack Marker touches up the grays the moment you need to use it, it’s quick coverage in a flash.   TouchBack Marker dries in a minute and won’t flake or rub off, even when you brush your hair.  TouchBack’s marker delivers the perfect amount of color to cover your grays instantly.  It actually bonds to your hair, blending beautifully with permanent hair color for a totally natural look.  The color contained in the TouchBack Marker stays on until you shampoo it  out.  TouchBack’s formula uses certified hair colors, but without harsh chemicals – no ammonia or peroxide – so it’s gentle on your hair.  Touchback Marker is available in 8 salon-quality shades.

TouchBack Marker does not contain PPD (paraphenylendediamine) or amonia peroxide, which is a plus because you won’t have to deal with unplesant fumes.

TouchBack Marker should be applied to dry hair, that alone sold me on this product.  Sometimes, there just isn’t time to color and wash your hair, and that is usually the time when you need a quick touchup.  You don’t need to wash out previous applications of mousses, gels and other styling products for TouchBack to work.  You can even use your hairspray after touching up. TouchBack Marker includes a special comb for you to use at your temples and hairline while acting as a skin shield for those areas.  If Touchback Marker directions are followed correctly you will have fabulous results.   Remember to read all the precautions before using.

Hide those grays, just a touch with TouchBack Marker.

Dive into Marine SkinCare with H2O Plus

Experience the benefits of the sea with H2O Plus The Science of Marine Skincare.  H2O Plus has created Oil-Free Marine Hydration Skincare taking various minerals, extracts and vitamins from the sea and putting them into a skin care line that is fabulous.  My girls and I have been using several of H2O Plus Skincare products and we want to share their benefits  with you.

I have been using H2O Plus Aqualibrium Sea Mineral Scrub, which is a “mildly, exfoliating, oil-free scrub to sweep away surface cells and dulling impurities with Carrageenan, Multivitamin Complex and Hydrating Marine Blend”.   I especially like that this Sea Mineral Scrub has extremely soft exfoliating beads, so they don’t scratch the surface of your skin when washing your face. Sea mineral Scrub always leaves my face feeling smooth and soft.  The combination of sea mineral complex, hydrating marine extracts of wakame, sea fennel and sea lettuce, help to achieve this refreshing feeling.

Another one of my favorites, H2O Plus Aqualibrium Sea Mineral Mud Mask is a mineral-rich, oil-free product that deep cleanses and purifies your skin and is truly a winner.  The mud mask is a blue colored, light textured thin liquid that I found to spread easily over my face and neck.  As is dries, the mask tightens, and when it was completely dry it easily washed off leaving my face feeling great.  The kaolin clay, an ingredient in H2O PLus Sea Mineral Mud Mask naturally draws pore-clogging dirt and oil from your skin.  The mud mask also contains aloe vera gel and sea fennel which helps hydrate your skin. Most importantly the mud mask contains allantoin  which helps soothe the skin and stimulate cell renewal. I really felt like I was having a true mud mask experience.

H2O Plus Oasis Mist,  “an energizing mist of oil-free hydration enriched with natural vitamins and minerals and anti oxidants” helps give your skin a natural glow.  Oasis Mist is pure, distilled water packed with sea-sourced vitamins A, C, E and Provitamin B.  The combinations of these vitamins revive, sooth and refresh your skin.  I use Oasis mist throughout the day, especially in this warm weather and the light blue colored mist leaves me feeling cool and refreshed.  Oasis mist also is a great makeup setting spray, just spritz onto  your face after applying makeup and start your day feeling refreshed.

My Daughter has had the pleasure of using H2O Plus Oasis Hydrating Gel.  As stated by H2O Plus, “This oil-free moisture gel delivers deep hydration while minimizing the appearance of fine lines with phospholipids, multivitamin complex and moisturizing marine botanicals”.  My daughter likes the fact that it the Hydrating gel contains vitamins A and E and  phospholipid microspheres, which will deliver time-released hydration and will help keep her skin looking fresh all day.

Waterwhite Advanced Brightening Essence is another great product from H2O Plus.  For those of you dealing with dark spots, H2O Plus formulated a “High performance brightening serum formulated to illuminate skin and aggressively target dark spots with knotted Sea Kelp, Asian Brightening Botanicals and vitamin C”.  brightening agents contained in the Brightening Essence will help reduce the production of melanin to correct and prevent the formation of age spots. I really enjoy using this product, who wouldn’t want a chance to have their skin feeling soft and smooth and have a serum that will help skin resist and repair the visible signs of aging?

At http://www.h2oplus.com you will find a wealth of  information on their complete product line.

It’s The Only Skin You Have and PEVONIA has it Covered

We should all  pamper our skin, after all, it is the only skin we have, and we must protect it.  Pevonia Sun Care products have  got you covered.  Pevonia Botanica Sun Care offers “sun safe” products to enable you to soak up the rays, and still  have fun in the sun without damaging your skin. With Pevonia,  your skin will be protected and hydrated not just during the summer months but all year long.

Pevonia Botanica Sun Care Line  works to ” Protect, Hydrate and Restore your skin before and after Sun”.  Most of us are well aware of the dangers of sun damaged skin, but every once in a while, an unexpected sunburn does happen.  My 18 year old son recently experienced a painful  sunburn on his neck and back. Pevonia After Sun Soothing Gel actually relieved the pain from his sunburn. With a combination of  Water Lily extract and Proline, the gel actually desensitized his skin while offering a very cooling sensation.  My son felt relief almost immediately.

I hope he learned his lesson.  Just to be on the safe side he now applies Pevonia Hydrating Sunscreen SPF 30 while outside, to protect him from future sunburns and from UVA and UVB rays.   Pevonia Hydrating Sunscreen SPF 30 is rich in Vitamin E, C and B and suitable for the entire face and body.  My son likes the fact that it is not greasy and is  easy to apply.

My two favorite Pevonia Sun Care products are the “Self Tanning Emulsion”  and the “Phyto-aromatic Mist”.  Whether I am indoors or outdoors,  after  spritzing Pevonia Mist onto my skin, I am left with cool fresh feeling. It has a delightful blend of Chamomile, Calendula and French Rose. The combination of all three help restore moisture, sooth skin and help prevent irratation.

Now even I can have the look of being out in the sun while avoiding the harmful effects of the sun’s rays.  Pevonia Self Tanning Emulsion when applied properly,  ensures an even application for an even tan.   Please note: Follow instructions for application and spread evenly on your body.  If applied correctly, you will not be disappointed. Visit Pevonia.com and view an extensive line of skin care products.  From “safe sun” to “anti-aging”, there is somethng for every skin’s needs. You only have one skin and Pevonia has it covered.
