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 The Signs of Aging

The best wrinkle is the one you never get.

If I've said it once, I've said in many times, It's never too early to start your anti-aging, anti-wrinkle skin care regimen. By starting today, you can slow down the signs of aging skin and even reverse many of the signs of aging such as sun damage!

Here's a few tips on what you can do to help reverse and slow down the signs of aging.


#1: Practice Sun Protection Every Day

Wearing sunscreen is not just for summer days or to protect you at the beach. 

The sun's harmful UVA and UVB Rays attack your skin during everyday activities, such as walking the dog, or watching your kid's soccer game...at any time of the year! See my post on How the Sun See's You for proof!

The single most important anti-aging thing you can do for your skin is to apply a high SPF sunscreen daily. 

One of my favorites is Rodan + Fields REDEFINE Triple Defense Treatment. It's a moisturizing treatment with broad spectrum SPF 30 protection.

It contains a clinically proven concentration of powerful peptides to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles and visibly firm skin. It  provides effective broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection and visibly decelerates the signs of photoaging that appear over time.

#2: Use an anti-wrinkle cream that's right for your skin type

Many anti-age creams offer over night success, and a very costly rate. Ensure that any anti-age cream you buy has been clinically proven to reduce wrinkles and sign of aging.

All of Rodan + Fields products have been clinically proven, and have different regimens for all skin types.

Here's a great tool to use when determining what regimen you should use for your skin type. It's free...give it a try.

Starting an effective anti-wrinkle plan isn't complicated, however skincare is like trying to lose weight. If you only eat healthy and go to the gym occassionally, you likely won't see results. Skincare is the same, use sunscreen everyday, and be diligent with you skincare regimen!!

 Follow through on these simple steps, and you should start to see brighter, younger-looking skin in a few weeks.

Rodan + Fields Products will be available in Canada in a few short weeks. Stay tuned for details.Want more details check out my pre-launch site by clicking the photo below:

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!
