This week is Skincare Awareness Week so Jorj and I each wanted to share advice to help you look after your skin.

Me: Good skin is healthy skin! We must take care of our skin from the inside out
as well as from the inside in. By creating the best possible environment for
healthy skin to thrive we are fighting away premature aging and prolonging
our natural youthfulness. Sleep well, eat well and try not to worry too much
about the small things in life, no skincare brand can give you the results
you will get from this!

Jorj: For men, use every opportunity to generate healthy skin. 
For instance whilst applying shaving gel or cream use it as a medium to give
yourself a face massage.
Using circular motions in an upward direction, massage along the jaw line
and your natural beard line.
Quick, easy and done in a minute or two will achieve increased blood flow,
firmer jaw muscle and even give you a better shave!
Perform post shaving with moisturiser or face oil for a longer lasting
effect.

SUPER HERO

REJUVENATING & PLUMPING POTION

Organic and 100% natural

A super potent potion composed of antioxidants and natural vitamins from Siberian Ginseng, English Pomegranate and Italian Grapefruit. Designed to inject life into the skin, giving it a natural plumped and glowing appearance.

The naturally derived form of Hyaluronic Acid is an amazing moisturising agent that transforms skin, giving it a smoother texture and younger feel.

The addition of a natural topical Prebiotic works towards balancing the skin’s natural microflora, ensuring a clear complexion.

How does it work:
Pomegranate is high in ellagic acid, it is a powerful scavenger of free radicals, and extremely effective in increasing the body’s own built-in antioxidant, glutathione, which in turn helps protect the DNA in cells from free radical damage. Ellagic acid is also thought to strengthen the cell membrane, making it less susceptible to free radical damage and preventing water loss from the cell.

Siberian Ginseng extract consists primarily of the complex polysaccharides and associated glycoproteins from the Siberian Ginseng Root. It is a skin-tightening ingredient that can help to physically 'lift' sagging skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The use of Siberian Ginseng Extract is totally safe and non-invasive.

Our Hyaluronic Acid is made by producing enzymes from a bacteria-based biofermentation process and NOT sourced from animals. Hyaluronic acid is what gives the skin its volume and fullness. It is one of the chief components of the extracellular skin matrix and it contributes significantly to cell proliferation. Aging can result in the loss of hyaluronic acid, which in turn results in skin that has less volume and the formation of wrinkles and folds.

Grapefruit tones the skin and helps to clear oily and congested skin as well as acne, It eases muscles fatigue and general stiffness.

How to use: It may be applied directly to freshly cleansed skin and followed with moisturiser.
For better results, do a deep facial massage using Alexandra Soveral’s facial oils and massage instructions. Once the circulation is stimulated and all oil has been absorbed by the skin, apply a few drops of Super Hero. This process will allow for a more efficient delivery system deep into the skin. Moisturiser may be applied if desired.

We are all born with brown fat; as we grow older we produce white fat through the foods we eat. White fat is the unhealthy fat that can cause health problems such as heart disease or diabetes. Brown fat, however, is considered healthy as it burns calories and white fat. Recent research has shown that we can create brown fat. Here are my tips for doing so:

Have a normal hot shower, do a salt & oil scrub to activate the circulation or dry brush before showering. At the end of the shower, slowly turn the water to warm for 30 seconds. Then slowly turn to cold for another 30 seconds of longer. The more you do this the more you will get used to it and start to tolerate it better.  Repeat twice a day for a couple of weeks and enjoy the results.
