Pump up the Volume with NEUMA’S neuVolume Blowout Mist

Neuma neuVolume Blowout Mist

My daughter Jenna is a big fan of Neuma. She has been using Neuma hair care products for quite some time now, and loves them. She told me recently that she has added Neuma‘s newest product, neuVolume Blowout Mist to her hair care regime and really likes it. Jenna has dry, damaged hair with split ends, mainly due to excess heat from her blow dryer. Neuma’s Blow Dry Lotion has helped her hair tremendously. She likes Neuma’s neuVolume Blowout Mist because it has a different application which she finds easy to use  and is getting great results. 

As a graduate student and having limited time, Jenna can create a fabulous hairstyle at home instead of spending that valuable time going to a salon. Neuma’s neuVolume Blowout Mist offers her that luxury. Jenna simply sprays neuVolume Blowout Mist on her damp hair from mid shaft to ends and she blow dries as usual for tangle-free, all-day body and bounce. She likes that her hair is fuller and shinier and when her hair looks great, Jenna feels great!

Neuma’s neuVolume Blowout Mist is formulated with a blend of plant extracts and essential oils, similar to what you will find in a salon, therefore achieving a salon quality blowout at home. It also contains Color-extending formula with UV Guard™ adding long-lasting body, volume and enhanced shine.

NeuVolume Blowout Mist contains Phyto Color Complex, a mixture of plant extracts that restores natural health and shine while maximizing color retention; Phyto UV Shield: a blend of certified organic plant extracts and essential oils, it enhances color vibrancy as well as shields it from UVA and UVB oxidation; Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Fruit Extract: rich in vitamins B2, D, A, E and K and potassium, it helps prevent moisture loss; therefore keeping frizz at bay and hair manageable; Maltol (Roasted Sorghum Malt): adds volume and body to hair and Silybum Marianum (Milk Thistle) Seed Extract: a powerful antioxidant that protects hair from free radicals.

When you enjoy Neuma hair care products as much as Jenna, she was thrilled to know some of her favorites are available in an “On the Go Travel Pack”. She was sure to pack her “On the Go Travel Pack” on a recent vacation.  The set, Neuma’s neuSmooth (shown above), contains 4 of her favorite Neuma products. She knows she can maintain her healthy hair without having to pack full size bottles. It’s very convenient, which is a necessity when traveling. Neuma “On the Go Travel Packs” are available in 6 formulas designed for your individual hair type. The products come in an adorable zip top bag which will make a perfect cosmetics bag or small accessory bag. Neuma “On the Go Travel Packs” make great stocking stuffers and fantastic gifts.

All NEUMA hair care products are available at select salons nationwide; visit www.neumabeauty.com for locations near you.

As stated by  Neuma, “NEUMA was developed by a leading team of cosmetic chemists, whose challenge was to create a professional performance hair care line that would be free of toxic ingredients, especially those suspected of contributing to human or environmental health problems; they succeeded. All products in the line are made of vegan formulas—free of synthetic fragrance, synthetic aroma chemicals, artificial dyes and all known carcinogens, neurotoxins, and skin sensitizers—and are never tested on animals. The brand has collections for all hair types, including a wide range of styling products, and is safe for color treated hair. With NEUMA, hair is left soft, shiny, manageable and healthy”.

The Vitamin B5 Blow Out

vitamin B5

Cut drying time by 50% while power boosting youth back into hair with Peter Coppola Keratin Concept’s Vitamin B5 Blowout

To rewind the strands of time and achieve a younger looking, blow dry each and every style time, the next big blowout trend has arrived: The Vitamin B5 Blowout. With products containing the ingredient of Pro Vitamin B5, this powerful beauty vitamin is celebrated for its moisturizing, detangling and thickening features, while its ability to reflect light will make tresses shinier and glossier.

What is the best part about The Vitamin B5 Blowout?  

Answer: Cuts drying time by 50%!

How to Create The Vitamin B5 Blowout

Peter Coppola Keratin Concept’s line of high quality hair care provides a complete set of products needed to accomplish The Vitamin B5 Blowout with ease. Simply begin by shampooing and conditioning with Peter Coppola’s Total Repair Sulfate-Free Smoothing Shampoo and Total Repair Conditioner, experiencing a luxurious cleansing with the benefits of Keratin Amino Acids, Ceramides and Pro Vitamin B5. This amazing duo of cleansing and conditioning products protect the hair against environmental stress such as UV rays and pollutants while imparting an iridescent shine.

Next, spray your gently towel dried hair with Just Blow – Blow-Out Spray to achieve a longer lasting blowout while infusing your tresses with additional Keratin, Ceramides, vitamins and sunflower oil. This heat activated leave-in spray reduces your drying time by 50% while boosting a more youthful appearance. After spraying Just Blow – Blow Out Spray section your hair into 4 parts; crown, sides and nape for total control while blow drying. Begin at the nape area and remove most of the moisture until hair is slightly damp. This eliminates unnecessary pulling and tugging on the hair when it is most vulnerable. Then, taking small sections and the Peter Coppola Ceramic Round Brush lift the hair at the base for added volume and slide down the section until the ends are sleek. Always use the nozzle attachment of your blow dryer for concentrated air flow directly where you want it to be; not blowing the hair everywhere to cause tangles. To finish, gently cup the ends under or flip up to achieve your desired finish. Repeat until all the sections are dried. For the final touch, take a small amount of Peter Coppola’s super lightweight, no build-up formula Argan Oil Polish in the palms of your hands as the perfect finishing tool. Slightly warm the Argan Oil Polish in your palms, coat hands and gently glide through your younger looking strands for a brilliant shiny finish

The Result: Younger, healthier, frizz-free and Vitamin B5 infused hair that radiates with shine

Homeopathic products shown to be safe and effective for pain and wellness

Are you a baby boomer? Have you experienced problems with low back, joint, and muscle pain? Well don’t feel alone! As “boomers” age, dealing with pain has become a significant issue! Putting it into a better perspective, can you believe that pain affects more than 30% of the people in the US more than heart disease, diabetes and cancer combined!

Even more disturbing is that 76.2 million people in America have revealed that they have had problems due to pain!

Pain relief is essential, and you’ll be glad to know that there are safer more natural choices available for treating pain, and providing alternatives to powerful painkillers that may present side effects and other risks! Complimentary and alternative medicine (CAM) is getting a lot of attention for it’s natural ingredients, effectiveness, and less side effects.

Statistics show that 40% of adults choose this safer complimentary and alternative type of treatment, and more and more doctors are now using CAM therapy with their patients and frequently combining them with traditional therapy known as integrated medicine.

In this article , I’d like to introduce you to two medical doctors who I had the opportunity to interview and learn more about CAM and two very effective homeopathic products. One is for pain relief called Traumeel®, and the other is Reboost™ that helps with cold and flu symptoms.

Dr. Steven Sampson, D.O.

Dr. Steven Sampson, D.O.

“Dr. Sampson founded the Orthohealing Center in Los Angeles, California. Recognized internationally as an expert in non-surgical orthopedics and regenerative medicine , his Orthohealing Center is a comprehensive leading-edge facility that focuses entirely on non-surgical orthopedics and sports medicine. Professional and Olympic athletes come from around the world to see Dr. Sampson for their treatments! Publishing many peer reviewed articles and textbook chapters that share his expertise, he has also created instructional videos to educate thousands of physicians. Dr. Sampson has contributed features in the New York Times, the LA Times, Huffington Post, The Doctors TV show, ESPN Radio, NBA TV, and numerous media outlets. Currently Dr. Sampson is a clinical instructor of medicine at David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, and on staff at St. Johns Health Center of Santa Monica, CA.”

Traumeel® Pain Relief with natural ingredients

Traumeel®
Pain relief with natural ingredients

My experience with Traumeel®:
Having a tear in my rotator, disc problems in my neck, and issues with pain I was a perfect candidate for Traumeel®. I’ve used a number of topical pain creams over the years, and found that most of them provided a temporary warming to my skin, and had that typically strong medicinal odor. I was surprised and delighted when I put on Traumeel® it was very light weight and absorbed instantly. There was no warming on my skin or and “medicinal”smell at all! Within minutes I noticed that my pain started to diminish. It’s also wonderful to use in the evening before you go to bed. I now carry a tube of Traumeel® with me wherever I go. They also have tablets you can take for pain. I’m on some medication, so I asked Dr. Sampson about that in our interview below!

My interview with Dr. Steven Sampson :
1. VICKI: Dr. Sampson, how does a product like Traumeel® help with pain relief for minor joint, muscle and back pain?

DR. SAMPSON: Traumeel® is a combination of 12 natural active ingredients (out of 14 actives). Traumeel® is easy to use and gently activates the body’s self healing, offering natural relief that works with your body to temporarily reduce minor joint, back and muscle pain.

2. VICKI: Is this considered a topical product without systemic effect, and a safe alternative to use if you also happen to be taking prescription medications?

DR. SAMPSON: Traumeel® is available in various forms including tablets, oral drops and topical cream and gel. Traumeel® has shown no known drug to drug interaction!

3.VICKI: How do you determine whether to use ice or heat to help with a painful muscle, back or shoulder discomfort?

DR. SAMPSON: Generally with new injuries like spasms and sprains we recommend ice initially for the first 48 hours, then heat for more chronic injuries like everyday muscle tension from sitting at the computer too long. Having said that, patients are very particular and some may prefer ice versus heat. When using natural based remedies like this, the body will let them know: generally, if it feels good – then use it, and if it feels worse – then avoid it.

VICKI:Thank you so much for your time. Traumeel® is quite an amazing product. It’s nice to know there’s an alternative relief for pain that is Homeopathic, available in variety of forms including a tablet , and also safe to use!

Facts about Traumeel®:

• Traumeel® has been used by millions in more than 50 countries around the world for over 60 years.

• Traumeel® has not been associated with the type of side effects linked with topical NSAID use, like increased risk of ulcers and stomach bleeding.

•Traumeel® ointment, gel and tablets are designed to work without going through the digestive system.

Reboost™ with Natural Ingredients

Reboost™
with Natural Ingredients

Bob’s experience with Reboost™: My husband, Bob, recently got over whatever was going around this year. He ended up with a lingering cough and nasal congestion. Reboost™ Cough Relief was soothing and it settled that cough ! (Honey is one of it’s inactive ingredients) He also tried the Reboost™ Decongestant Spray that was helpful as well. Reboost™ offers some real “go to” products to have on hand for you to take at the onset of a cold, nasal, or sinus situation. I did have some questions, once again, about interactions with other medications that Dr. Haddon answered in my interview below!

My interview with Dr.Sezelle Gereau-Haddon:

1. VICKI: Dr. Haddon, when using a product like Reboost™, is it only to be used after you have symptoms of a cold or flu, or can it be used as a preventative product as well?

DR. HADDON: No product can reliably prevent cold and flu. While there is no known cure for the common cold, many cold and flu sufferers find relief through symptomatic treatment. The Reboost™ line of products includes Nasal Spray for the temporary relief of minor nasal symptoms, Throat Spray for the temporary relief of minor pain from sore throat, tablets for the temporary relief of minor flu symptoms and Cough Syrup for minor cough and congestion.

2. VICKI: Is Reboost™ a product you will be able to use if you are taking prescription medications?

DR. HADDON: Absolutely! Reboost™ has shown no known drug to drug interactions.

3. VICKI: How does a product like Reboost™ help with cold and flu symptoms? Is it safe?

strong>DR. HADDON: We believe Reboost™ products work with the body’s own immune system to promote natural self-healing. They are safe and have no known side effects such as drowsiness. Anyone over the age of four can use Reboost™ products.

VICKI: With your exceptional training and expertise in “integrated” medicine, it’s very reassuring to feel confident about the Reboost™ line of homeopathic alternative options. Thank you so much for this interview.

Cold and Flu Statistics:
• The common cold is caused by more than 200 viruses and is the leading cause of doctor visits and missed days from work or school.

• On average 5-20 percent of Americans get the flu each year, and 20,000 children in the U.S. are hospitalized each year because of flu complications.

• Many consumers have concerns regarding the safety of some over-the-counter medicines. Research indicates that many are turning to natural cold and flu medicines instead of traditional therapies.

About Reboost™:
• Reboost™ is a product line for cold and flu relief.

• Reboost™ means that relief doesn’t need to come with frequent side effects, which can be bothersome or even serious.

• Reboost™ products promote natural self-healing and use ingredients found in nature, so cold and flu sufferers can feel better about feeling better.

Precision M.D. Celfix DNA™ Youth Recovery Facial Serum makes a “groundbreaking” discovery that will help delay future signs of aging skin!

I’m really fascinated with all of the studies that are done with the new technology that’s available using the latest finds with ingredients and developing products that are keeping our skin healthy and looking younger at any age.

Celfix DNA™ is one of those products that I had an opportunity to try, really liked, and am looking forward to sharing it with you.

I knew with the Celfix study results, and with an earlier similar study that was done in Italy, that Celfix DNA™ was a product that would really get some attention when it became available in the marketplace.

Here is some of the interesting data:

Celfix DNA™ was actually part of a study that was published by Board Certified dermatologist James Spencer, MD.in the Journal of Drugs and Dermatology.

Precision M.D. Celefix DNA™

Precision M.D.
Celefix DNA™

Dr.Spencer studied the “effects of sunscreen plus Celfix DNA Youth Recovery Serum”, and the results were quite noteworthy! Regarding anti-aging and the results of this study, Dr. Spencer said “This research makes a strong argument for daily use of Celfix DNA and sunscreen for patients who want to delay the signs of aging.”

Earlier, a similar “clinical study” comparable to Dr.Spencer’s was done by Dr. Enzo Berardseca, an eminent Italian dermatologist” using Photolyase , which happens to be a “key component” in Celfix DNA Youth Recovery Serum! This study revealed that “sunscreen alone is NOT enough to protect your skin!”

Photolyase is a “naturally occurring” enzyme, and when it was combined with a sunscreen, quoting the clinical study, “there was a major reduction in the appearance of the signs of aging caused by UV radiation (measured by pyrimidine dimers), almost as if the skin was never exposed in the first place.” Now, that’s quite a finding!!

Consider these “Facts” regarding the care of your skin:
• Did you know that 80% of “the visible signs of aging are the consequence of UV radiation”?
• Are you aware that your body tries it’s best to deal with UV radiation, but can handle about only 50% of the harm that it’s doing to your skin in 24 hours. That’s insufficient, and your skin needs some more help!

Well, here’s where Celfix DNA Youth Recovery™ comes into play! It’s the only product that “features Celzyme Technology™ “! Celzyme Technology™ happens to be a combination of three dominate enzymes including Photolyase that was mentioned above as the enzyme that was used in Dr.Berardseca’s very successful study!

Celfix DNA Youth Recovery™ is a light weight, non-greasy serum that will not only help you fight your “future signs of aging”, but any skin type can use it!

The other two enzymes in Celfix DNA Youth Recovery™ are endonuclease, and OGG1 that also focus on indications of aging skin. This potent Celfix DNA serum also contains “antioxydants” to protect your skin from free radicals that cause aging, and hyaluronic acid to help increase hydration levels in your skin.

Bottom line, Celfix DNA Youth Recovery™ will fit nicely into your treatment routine! As the above studies concurred, it does take more than an SPF to protect your skin from sun damage, and Celfix DNA™ serum has all the right components to compliment your SPF, provide the advantage of protecting your skin, and help resist aging.

You may purchase Celfix DNA™ Youth Recovery™ at physicians’ offices across the nation. Read more about this fine product and find a doctor near you to purchase your product at:

Mama Mio’s easiest 4 Minute Boot Camp and “No Crunches Allowed”

 

Unknown-67

I am a huge fan of Mama Mio Skincare and their motto “fit skin for life”. Mama Mio’s  team of experts continuously create solutions for specific women’s life stages ranging from pregnancy and weight-loss to helping them cope with the first signs of gravity and menopause. Mama Mio’s goal is to ” feel great in our birthday suits – from top to toe – no matter what the birthday.” Lucky Legs Cooling Serum, one of Mama Mio’s skincare products formulated to revive tired legs is one of my favorites and now I am loving Bootcamp Tummies, another sensational Mama Mio product.

Mama Mio Tummies is a skincare kit packed with everything you need to achieve a great looking tummy. Skin Tight Toning Serum, Get Waisted Body Shaper and a handy Booklet,  4 minute Tummy Tucking program created by ab guru Julie Tupler, RN. These 3 products are all you need to get a great looking tummy in less than 4 minutes a day! Incredible!

Skin Tight Toning Serum should be used  two times a day for 6 to 8 weeks for maximum results. This specially formulated serum is designed to smooth and tighten saggy, crepey, loose skin. It is colorless and light and only a small amount is needed as it spreads easily. I am also using Skin Tight Toning Serum on my arms and it also works well anywhere on you body where you feel tightening is needed.

What is in Skin Tight Toning Serum that allows you to achieve tighter, firmer and toned skin?

Papaya Enzymes exfoliate to soften, Hyaluronic Acid, a powerful moisturizer, helps plump up the skin, Uniprosyn™ is often used in very expensive eye creams to combat crow’s feet, and Soy Protein Complex,  used for tightening the surface of the skin.

st-pgw-p

Get Waisted Body Shaper is the second but an equally important part of the 3 part Bootcamp Tummy Regime. After applying Skin Tight Toning Serum,  wait 15 minutes and apply Get Waisted Body Shaper.  Get Waisted was formulated to shrink fat cells and tighten and firm tummy flab. Get Waisted works beneath the surface of the skin to increase the breakdown of fat. It is clinically proven to help increase fat burning as well as tighten and tone.

It only takes one pump of Get Waisted Body Shaper and massage the cream into your tummy for at least 30 seconds using large clockwise strokes. You only need to use this once a day for 30 days – no cheating! Use it on your arms too! As stated by Mama Mio, “Get Waisted works by increasing the energy levels within your skin, boosting firmness, tightness and increasing lipolysis. Lipolysis is the natural action that happens when your fat cells release the ‘energy’ within them – ie fat – to give your body fuel’

What is in Get Waisted Body Shaper that allows you to achieve tighter, firmer and toned skin?

An amazing combination of 9 proven ingredients work together to increase circulation, reduce puffiness, tighten and tone. You can learn more about these amazing ingredients at www.mamamio.com/us/.

Mama Mio clearly states that we must be totally realistic on this -This product will  not remove large fat deposits, and it will take  a combination of Get Waisted, exercise and eating well!  But the combination of all three will give you  amazing results. Get Waisted Body Shaper  has been tested independently by Weight Watchers, and is featured in magazines such as Bazaar, Vogue, Weight Watchers, You, Lucky, Marie Claire, and the list goes on and on.

The third part of Bootcamp Tummies are the 2 special abdominal exercises you need to do each day and will only take you less than 4 minutes to complete. I don’t want to spoil the surprise by telling you what those exercises are but I can tell you this:

The 4 Minute Tummy-Tucking Exercise Program which was created 
by ab rehab guru, Julie Tupler, RN, focuses on strengthening the Transverse muscle (your natural corset) and the Rectus adominal (outer most abdominal muscle). By perfecting these 2 abdominal exercises, your tummy will become flatter and stronger. Remember, only 4 minutes a day!

You can start your way to a flatter tummy by going to http://www.mamamio.com/us/ . You will also learn more about Mama Mio and view their vast array of incredible skincare as well as obtain information on “fit skin for life”.

Get That Sunkissed Hair That’s Soft, Curly And Luxurious

itsaglamthing.com

Pureology

 

Pureology’s Gold Definer is an amazing product that gives blondes the lift, hold and shine that it needs. With a combination of Olive, apricot, and jojoba oils it helps bring out the optimum brilliance in my hair. It also uses a Keravis-infused complex that help strengthens my curly hair and makes my blonde color last longer. One of the best features about this product is the texture. It has a lightweight feel and never weighs down my hair; perfect for my curly hair and any humidity during the day. You have to be careful you don’t overload your hair with it, because you only need a little to achieve the perfect volume. You can apply it wet or dry; warm it up in your hands first then spread it in your hair. This product is especially great for people with highlights; it really brings out the golden tones in my hair.

Highlight Stylist Sea Kissed Texturizer is the perfect product for my hair. I was amazed at how well it worked! This is a product that you spray in your hair when it needs a little extra texture. It is great for my curly hair; it defines and does an incredible job at moisturizing too. After using this product my hair comes out wavy and weightless; it gives me the perfect beachy waves without being sticky or frizzy. It works great for people like me with thick hair as well as people with thin hair. I feel like I get better results when I use it with dry hair; however, it works fine with wet hair too. This is a great product to use before I blow out my hair; my hair comes out beautiful every time. If you use this with the Gold Definer and the Bodifying Illuminator, it will give your hair the ultimate boost. It gives my already curly hair a tamed beachy look with some of the salt spray while still keeping my hair hydrated.

The Bodifying illuminator is more like a mousse for people with highlighted hair. Because my hair is already curly I don’t use mousse regularly; however, it is a lightweight formula that adds body and lasts throughout the day. It creates a lot of great body and gave my hair a multi-dimensional shine. This is another product that you only need a small amount to be effective; too much might create your hair to become somewhat straw-like. It is a great product for frizz control. It is best used by dispensing a small amount into your palms and apply to damp hair before blow drying. This is another lightweight product that does not feel greasy to the touch at all and is perfect if you want more curls in your hair.

You can learn more about Pureology and purchase the perfect Pureology product for your hair color at pureology.com
