Gluten free cosmetics

I started eating gluten free in January and have seen some good results with my health as a result. Having a daughter with celiac it was not a stretch to find that I was Gluten sensitive. I just finished reading an article about how being gluten sensitive can be just as serious as full blown celiac. The reason being that the damage may be insidious. By that I mean is that a person may not feel the effects of gluten intolerance right away but the damage could be happening quietly. There could be health problems that could result later on in life from this  damage. They also mentioned that people with Thyroid problems my also benefit greatly from a gluten free life style.

My next step will be to concentrate on making sure my make up and body lotions or creams are also gluten free.As I have stated on this blog before,what we put on our skin makes it's way into your body on some level. A good point to keep in mind when buying any product that you put on your skin.
The following is a link that is one of the most comprehensive sites on finding Gluten free cosmetics.

My new guilty pleasure!!

There it is people!! So while on a break at work I was flipping through some magazines and up popped an article about celebrities and their favorite beauty products. Well I was admiring the fresh faced Kate Hudson and thinking to myself ,wow she has really nice skin and me being a total sucker for ANY skin care product I saw she uses the ABOVE product.
She loves it so much she slathers it all over her kids too!! So I had to get some. Off I was on the Internet to see where I could find the best deal. Low and behold they carried it at my favorite Vitamin supplier,Vitacost. (not to get off subject,but if you've have never used Vitacost to buy vitamins ,you are paying way to much!).Anyway I was happy to see it available there for $10.00 less than most shops on line. $29.95. If you order $50 or more at Vitacost you get free shipping also!!So I ordered some vitamins I needed also... BONUS!

Following is a list of the wonderful ingredients in this lovely cream.

It is so natural that it is safe to use on your children also!
So if you think you would like to try it ,go on line to check it out. The website is very informative!Also there is a blip on there from this egyptian god that is pretty freakin funny.Well worth the trip to the website just to read it!

New Skin Care line coming to the Spa!! Glo-Therapeutic

 I am very excited about the new skin care line coming to our spa in February. We have been looking for another professional line to add for a couple years now. We added the absolutely awesome stem cell cream by Adonia last year.

 That has continued to be one of our best sellers.
If you have not tried it I urge you to. I am still getting compliments from people on how great my skin looks. Yes I do take good care of myself BUT this cream has took it one step past what I had been doing.
Anyway back to Glo-Therapeutic. This line is more affordable to the clients I see coming in to the salon now a days. People want a good quality skin care line . One that is not packed with allot of chemicals. One that will give good results without breaking the pocketbook.
Now any good skin care line will cost you more than $20.00. If your looking for something cheap a professional line is not what your looking for. BUT if your looking for quality products that are under $40.00 and give good results than Glo-Therapeutics is what you may want to check out.
We are going to debut this product line with a Facial designed around their hydrating line. This is the perfect time of year to try this facial. Winter is dehydrating for any and all skin care types. Even oily skin can become dehydrated.
This product line can also be ordered on line ,for those of you that don't live in the area of the salon and want to try it out!
