Are you making you skin happy? Fight wrinkles on a budget.

Lines have a way of sneaking up on you  a glance in the mirror in the right (or wrong) light can suddenly expose a roadmap you didn't know existed. But you don't have to go into Beverly Hills housewife territory with fillers or Botox to have dramatic impact on the signs of aging.

Rodan + Fields has a great REVERSE Regimen that works wonders at undoing sun damage, but it is much more effective to prevent the damage in the first place  with a healthy lifestyle and a consistent skin care routine that keeps your skin hydrated, nourished, and protected.
Here are some great ways to prevent those wrinkles from starting.

Drop the Dead Weight

The fastest way to reveal younger, smoother skin is to get rid of the dead, dry cells that accumulate on the surface. Exfoliation is one of my secret weapons to having great skin because it makes a huge difference in how skin looks and feels, I like to think of it as creating a perfect canvas for your Rodan + Fields skincare products. If you don't exfoliate, those anti-aging products won't be able to penetrate and do their job.

I like to use Rodan + Fields MACRO Exfoliating once a week. It's a hand-held, personal use exfoliation tool that sweeps away dead skin cells, leaving behind a smoother, healthier-looking and more luminous complexion.  DOn't believe me? The proof is in the filter where you can see the dulling, dead outermost skin cells and debris that have been covering up your best skin.

Treat While You Sleep

At night, your body is able to heal itself from the inside out, free from environmental factors like sun, wind, and pollution. You don't have to worry about makeup or sunscreen either, so you can use creams with a thicker texture that provide deeper hydration and can lessen the appearance of wrinkles. 

Try something like Rodan + Fields REDEFINE Overnight Restorative Cream. It's an ultra-hydrating cream that replenishes your skin's natural moisturizing factors while you sleep, for visibly firmer, less-lined skin in the morning. 







Anpther great product is the REDEFINE Night Renewing Serum. It feels like silk on your skin. Each capsule contains a potent, proprietary blend of peptides and retinol to visibly improve skin texture and firmness and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Retinol improves skin texture and minimizes the appearance of pores. 



Go Easy on the Eyes

The delicate skin around the eyes is especially susceptible to wrinkles, so it will benefit from some overnight TLC as well.  Rodan + Fields top selling REDEFINE Multi-Function Eye Cream is truly one of my favourite products. As with all Rodan + Fields products it's clinically proven to work. Give it a try with a 60 day money back guarantee on all Rodan + Fields products (including empty bottles) what have you got to lose?

Younger Healthier Looking Skin at Any Age

As you age, your skin becomes thinner and can begin to look tired. Environmental damage also can take the glow out of your complexion and leave you with dull skin. If you find yourself yearning for the dewiness of younger skin, there are ways to help restore the glow to your complexion.

Your skin begins to age as early as your twenties. Skin starts to lose its elastic qualities and dead cells do not slough off as quickly, leaving you with dull, dry skin that has lost its glow. In addition to normal aging and your own genetics, factors that can cause your skin to appear dull include:

Over time, too much sun exposure can damage your skin, causing it to appear rough, leathery, and blotchy. Sun exposure is more likely to lead to dull skin if you have a fair complexion.

Good news...you can actually reverse the signs of sun damage with Rodan + Fields REVERSE Regimen with the REDEFINE MARCO-Exfoliator  (also happens to be the regimen I use daily - and LOOOOVE). With this regimen you can prevent a drab complexion or regain your youthful glow!

Clean the slate and see a brighter future for your skin. Exposure to the sun and the environment can leave you with less-than-youthful skin. Erase the appearance of premature aging, including brown spots, dullness and discoloration with REVERSE.

REVERSE Regimen exfoliates, visibly brightens and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Rodan + Fields REVERSE REDEFINED Special Regimen features: 

• Deep Exfoliating Wash 
• Intensive Brightening Toner 
• Dual Active Brightening Complex  2 x 25 mL, and 
• Broad Spectrum SPF 50+ Sunscreen 50 mL

Waging War Against Wrinkles...

Even if you feel young, vibrant, and full of energy on the inside, you may still find that wrinkles on your skin bring your age up a few notches. 

As the skin ages, it changes. Skin loses some of its fat content and appears thinner. It also becomes less elastic and shows the effects of the pull of gravity. 

Genetics do contribute a small portion in determining your skin's future (only 20%), however, how your skin ages is mostly in your control! 

80% of skin's aging is determined by your lifestyle habits such as smoking, sun exposure and even sleeping on your side or stomach.

There are plenty of anti-aging products out there that promise to zap wrinkles fast! 

In my experience I have only found on product line does does exactly what it promises too...plus is made by the most famous Dermatologists in the world Dr. Katie Rodan and Dr. Kathy Fields (makers of Proactiv).

Here's some great advice to follow to help reclaim your youthful skin.

Always protect your skin from the sun. 
That means limiting how much time you spend in the sun, slathering your body in sunscreen any time you're outdoors, and wearing long pants, long-sleeved shirts, and wide-brimmed hats to keep the sun off your skin and guard against wrinkles, age spots, and skin cancer.




Don't smoke. 
When it comes to smoking, it's best never to start. But if you are a smoker, stopping now will help keep your skin looking young and prevent wrinkles. It's never too late to reap the benefits of quitting smoking.

Say NO to tanning beds. 
Don't use tanning beds, period. Those rays will damage your skin, leaving you more prone to wrinkles (and possibly skin cancer as well).






Keep skin hydrated and moisturized. 
Drink lots of water all the time. Make it a healthy habit while you're young and continue into your senior years. It's also important to use a daily moisturizer if your skin is dry to keep it supple and smooth.

The best wrinkle...is the one you never get!! Consider trying an anti-aging wrinkle treatment, such as Rodan + Fields REDEFINE Regimen. 

We are all aging all the time, but what that looks like is up to you. Decide today how you are going to look tomorrow and use Rodan + Fields REDEFINE Regimen.

Best at Home Acne Treatment

If you have acne, you're among more than 70 million people in the United States who have suffered from this skin condition at some time in their lives. 

It is so common that acne affects about 80 percent of Americans 20 to 30 years old. During the teenage years, acne is more common in boys than in girls, but in adults it's more common in women.

Getting to the Root of Acne

Whether you call it acne, pimples, or zits, in order to treat the condition, it's important to understand the causes:

Clogged pores and bacteria: 

• In your teens, the glands in the skin begin secreting sebum, an oily substance. This normally comes out through the pores, but in some people, sebum clogs up in the pores, allowing a bacterium, called P. acnes, to begin to grow.

Hormones: 

• In your teen years, hormones start changing and affecting your body, including causing acne. This also happens during pregnancy, which explains why pregnant women or women having their periods often have acne breakouts. Hormones released during stressful times can also cause acne.

Genetics: 

• You may be more likely to develop acne if your parents had acne when they were younger.

The Right Acne Treatment

There are many ways to take care of acne, depending on what causes it and how bad it is. Moderate and severe acne can actually be treated with an at-home skincare regimen from Rodan + Fields (makers of Proactiv) called UNBLEMISH.

Visit my website www.suemiller.myrandf.com/ca to purchase this regimen

UNBLEMISH is clinically proven to combat the entire acne cycle. It helps to unclog pores, clears breakouts and calms your complexion to keep pimples, blackheads and post-acne marks from making an unwelcome appearance on your face - and in your life.

Since many acne sufferers have the remnant red/brown marks following a healed blemish, this regimen also offers the UNBLEMISH Clarifying Toner. 

The UNBLEMISH Regimen features 4 full-size products: 

• Acne Treatment Sulfur Wash
• Clarifying Toner
• Dual Intensive Acne Treatment, and 
• SOOTHE Mineral Sunscreen

Prevent Wrinkles From Forming

Both wrinkles and lines are the results of many factors, including sun damage, the passage of time, bad habits like smoking and repetitive facial expressions, even things like sleeping on your face can play a role.  

When elastin, collagen and fat - some of the components that give our skin its structure - break down, wrinkles form and the skin begins to sag. Of course, the best wrinkle is the one you never get. 

The regimen I recommend the most to fight the signs of aging is Rodan + Fields REDEFINE Power Pack.

The REDEFINE regimen is clinically  proven to improve the appearance of lines, wrinkles and loss of firmness faster when used together, with the Rodan + Fieldsthe MACRO Exfoliator™ and AMP MD™. You will soon discover this combo delivers real, visible results.

Rodan + Fields REDEFINE Power Pack

This Power Pack lasts for 60 days and features:

• Daily Cleansing Mask
• Pore Minimizing Toner
• Triple Defense Treatment SPF 30 (AM cream)
• Overnight Restorative Cream (PM cream)

Add These To Your Plate For Glowing Skin!

Let's face it...we are all aging all the time. 

If you want a smoother, clearer complexion not only do you need a great skincare regimen like Rodan + Fields REDEFINE Regimen, but you also need to add toss these six fortifying "Feed Your Face" foods into your grocery cart.

Rodan + Fields REDEFINE Regimen

Dr. Kathy Fields often says "Preventing wrinkles is far less painful and expensive than correcting them. The best wrinkle is the one you never get." Why begin your day with Rodan + Fields REDEFINE Regimen. REDEFINE is a comprehensive skincare regimen that layers cosmetic ingredients and proven peptide technology to help defend against and reduce the visible signs of aging for noticeably firmer, smoother, flawless-looking skin. The REDEFINE Regimen features four full-size products: 

• Daily Cleansing Mask 
• Pore Minimizing Toner 
• Triple Defense Treatment SPF 30 and 
• Overnight Restorative Cream

Tomatoes 

Tomatoes contain a powerful antioxidant called lycopene which many studies suggest may be responsible for helping to protect the skin against sun damage. Lycopene is best absorbed by the body when it has been cooked or processed, so eating tomato sauce, tomato paste, and ketchup is likely to be more effective than just eating raw tomatoes when trying to safeguard your skin against harmful UV rays. That doesn't mean you should skip the daily sunscreen though!




Red Meat 
Red meat sometimes gets a bad rap, but lean red meat is high in protein and zinc. To produce collagen, your skin needs the amino acids glycine and proline, and the protein in red meat has the highest concentration of these two amino acids. The mineral zinc is also crucial for collagen production. Without enough zinc, it’s difficult for the skin to make collagen. Plus, zinc is a natural anti-inflammatory. Dont' eat meat - No worries, vegetarians don’t need to miss out as glycine can also be found in seafood, proline in cottage cheese and cabbage, and zinc in lentils, kidney beans, and raw oysters.

Green Tea 
It’s no secret that green tea is an antioxidant powerhouse. Its strong anti-inflammatory and anti-aging effects are attributed to its high concentration of catechin compounds. Research suggests that drinking one cup of green tea twice a day over the course of six months may actually reverse sun damage and significantly improve any problems you have with redness and broken capillary veins. So drink up!

Green Beans 

As long as we’re going green, let’s talk about how these low-calorie beans are a star "Feed Your Face" food because they’re one of the richest sources of silicon — not to be confused with silicone, which is found in bad lip jobs and breast implants! 





Walnuts 

Did you know that walnuts are also incredibly high in omega-3s? If you’re concerned with redness, swelling, blotchiness, acne breakouts, or wrinkles, walnuts may be your new best friend. Plant-based omega-3s, such as the ones found in walnuts, are naturally anti-inflammatory; they can help seal moisture into your skin and protect it from chemicals and other toxins. In particular, the alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) in these omega-3s can work to combat the dryness associated with aging that leads to wrinkles. But don’t stop with walnuts; you can also increase the amount of plant-based omega-3s in your diet by eating almonds, olive oil, and flaxseed, too.

Yogurt 
Not only is it the main ingredient in the best smoothies, yogurt is an excellent "Feed Your Face" food for dealing with acne breakouts, eczema, and even dandruff. Just be sure to choose a low-fat and low-sugar yogurt, since sugar can aggravate inflammation. And if you think your breakouts are related to dairy, skip the yogurt and going straight for a probiotic supplement instead.

Networking Basics: 8 Tips to Networking Without Being Fake

Once again Marie Forleo provides some great Networking tips.

Enjoy :)

Antiage Skincare Tips - Exfoliation is the Key To Smooth Skin

Our skin is constantly renewing itself, growing new skin cells to replace the surface skin cells that grow old, die, and fall off. Every minute of every day, between 30,000 and 40,000 dead skin cells flake away.

Factors like age and dry skin can mean that dead skin cells don’t fall away as easily as they should. 

When these cells build up, they can make our complexion look rough and pasty and can also contribute to the clogged pores that lead to adult acne. 

The regular yet careful use of a clinically proven skin exfoliant can help slough off dead skin cells and uncover fresh, more youthful skin.

Here are my two favorite skincare regimens which include a daily exoliation.

REVERSE Regimen

Exposure to the sun and the environment can leave you with less-than-youthful skin. Erase the appearance of premature aging, including brown spots, dullness and discoloration with REVERSE. 

REVERSE Regimen exfoliates, visibly brightens, reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and defends against sun exposure for a long-term solution for a radiant complexion.

Retail $206.00 CAD - Available for sale in Canada Feb 02 2015. Preferred customers get a 10% discount.

The REVERSE Regimen features four full-size products:

REDEFINE Regimen

4 things you might not know about sun protection

When it comes to sunscreen, it's not about the SPF, it's all about how often you apply it.

While enjoying the outdoors is a must, so is protecting your skin from the sun’s harmful rays all year round.

Most of us think if we slather on the sunscreen – the higher the SPF the better – that we are adequately protected from harmful UVA and UVB rays. But really, that’s only half true.

1. Higher isn't necessarily better

For babies and small children, it’s especially important to apply sunscreen on them. The brands that are geared towards kids are usually SPF 60 or higher. But while that number is high, it’s not necessarily better than an SPF 30, especially if you are only applying the SPF 60 once.

The important thing about wearing sunscreen is the frequency with which you apply it. While SPF 15 is the lowest you should use, it, and any other SPF number sunscreen you use, should be applied at least each hour you are outdoors.


2. Shade only does so much

Umbrellas and shade may offer protection from the sun’s heat, but they do not protect you from UV rays. Sun damage can easily occur in the shade where the SPF protection is only five to seven. If you are at the beach or near water, UV rays can bounce off sand and water and reach you under your umbrella, which makes reapplying your sunscreen even when under any type of shade even more important.

3. Waterproof protection
While there are sunscreens that claim to be waterproof, there is actually no such thing. Between sweating and swimming, these sunscreens only last a maximum of 80 minutes safely, 40 if you are swimming. Despite the “all-day” or waterproof label, you still need to reapply sunscreen every one to two hours.




4. Medications and the sun

If you are on birth-control, antihistamines or other medications, you could be more sensitive to the sun, making you a prime target for sunburn, despite applying sunscreen. Ask your doctor about any medications you are taking to find out if any of them are making you sun sensitive.

The next time you step outside, remember that applying and re-applying sunscreen is your best line of defence against UV rays, no matter the season!

Harvard Business School Says Rodan + Fields is a Once in a Lifetime Opportunity

In January 2012, Rodan + Fields Chairman and President were invited to the Harvard Business School to be participate in a case study focusing on Rodan + Fields Dermatologists, and their direct selling model.

I first heard of Rodan + Fields about 3 years ago when I was visiting family in Boston. I had never heard of Dr. Katie Rodan or Dr. Kathy Fields. At the time I had no idea that they were the doctor's who created the hugely successful acne regimen Proactiv, or the Dr.'s who created the Rodan + Fields skincare line I had just fallen in love with. 

I knew that Rodan + Fields skincare was going to be a regular part of my skincare regimen, but had no idea that soon it would become my business as well. Confession time: I have always been very skeptical about direct selling. I simply assumed it was a scam, and people would get suckered into a business where they were promised they would make millions and end up losing money. So I decided to look into the company's business model and do some research on my own.

During my research I discovered Rodan + Fields is far from a scam and truly is a legitimate business. I came across the Harvard Business Review Case study which profiled Rodan + Field dermatologists and their direct selling model. After reading the business case, I knew I needed to take the leap of faith and try something new with Rodan + Fields or I would regret it for the rest of my life.

Before I get into the results on the case study, let me give you a little history on Rodan + Fields.

Rodan + Fields originally started selling their skincare regimens in high end department stores, like Nordstrom and Bloomingdales between 2002 and 2007. 

Rodan + Fields was actually ranked #1 at Nordstrom when the Doctor's decided to break free from the department stores and enter into direct sales.

Here are the results from the information found in the Harvard Business School and Network Marketing report:

In order for a company to be successful in the Direct Selling Market, it needs to be a "ground floor" opportunity.

• Harvard Business School suggests that in order for the opportunity to qualify as "ground floor" the number of existing active distributors should be less than ½ of 1% of the population (300 million in the united states) in the country where this network marketing company exists.

• In the United States this figure is equal to 1.5 million people

• Harvard Business School also stated that if there were less than 500,000 people involved, you would be on the cutting edge of a great opportunity.

• If the company has less than 100,000 distributors, Harvard Business School considers it to be a once in a lifetime opportunity.

• Rodan + Fields currently only has 15,000 distributors in the US

What does this mean for the Canadian Market?

 Rodan + Fields is expanding into Canada in fall 2014.

Based on the Harvard Business School’s report becoming one of the first Independent consultant in Canada is truly a “Once in a lifetime opportunity!”

Based on the reports finding:

• In order for the opportunity to qualify as "ground floor" the number of existing active distributors should be less than ½ of 1% of the population. 

• The current Canadian Population is approximately 35 million. Based on this figure that would mean if Canada had 175 000 consultants Rodan + Fields would be considered “Ground Floor 

• Harvard Business School also stated that if there were less than 500,000 people involved, it would be on the cutting edge of a great opportunity.

• As stated above based on numbers if Rodan + Fields had even 175 000 consultants in Canada it would be considered “Ground Breaking”. 

• If the company has less than 100,000 distributors, Harvard Business School considers it to be a once in a lifetime opportunity. 

• Rodan + Fields are launching into Canada in January 2014 – which means there are currently NO Canadian distributors at this time. 

That means this truly is a once in a lifetime opportunity for the Canadian market!!! 

Ask yourself this question...if you had a chance to go back in time and buy stock in Proactiv before it became a multi-billion dollar brand...would you?

If your answer is "yes" let's connect so you too can partner with the same doctors who are NOW doing for the anti-age market what they did for the acne market!
