| August 7, 2009

Hyaluronic Acid is naturally present in our skin but gradually decreases with age causing skin to loose its elasticity and to dull, wrinkle and fold. By the age of 25, we have lost 10% of our original levels, by the age of 40, it has decreased by 50% and after the age of 60, it has decreased by 90%Hialurox, the latest technology in cosmetology, has been launched in UAE at the Al Qaser Medical Centre in Sharjah under the professional managment of dermatologist and cosmeticians.The molecules are absorbed deep into the skin during a relaxing gel facial, and are then recombined to their original size using cold lasers. The restored molecules immediately add elasticity to your skin, encouraging collagen production that transforms the appearance of the face. With regular treatments this will stimulate the natural production of Hyaluronic Acid, making it a wonderful anti-aging preventer.The treatment is applied across the whole face but target areas can be identified to fill deep lines or wrinkles or to plump lips or cheek bones to add more definitionA number of 6 sessions are recomended to benefit from the complete effect of the new invention.

Beyond Organic Regenerating Night Cream Wins Award

| August 7, 2009

Beyond Organic has won its 4th beauty award in just over a year for its Regenerating Night Cream featuring new skincare superstar sea buckthorn.Beyond Organics Regenerating Night Cream, winner in Best Facial Skincare Category at this years Natural Health Magazine Beauty Awards, is part of a new and completely chemical-free range of skincare that is reaping awards for founder Marianne Tregoning.Mariannes passion for purity is the driving force behind Beyond Organic Skincare, which she founded in March 2007 even her office walls are painted in non-toxic colours. Her ranges distinctive turquoise-sea blue pots are packed with herb, plant and wildflower extracts, most of them harvested off Cornwalls wild and beautiful shores near her workshop in Constantine. And there isnt a single paraben or hard-to-spell chemical among them.Were delighted to win the Natural Health Magazine award for the second time running, says Marianne. This time last year we were Top Finalists in the Natural and Organic Awards, sponsored by the Soil Association, with our Detoxifying Cleanser and Regenerating Night Cream. Its fantastic to receive this sort of recognition because as any company committed to producing quality organic products, its not easy being green – a lot of hard work goes into creating skincare products that are so pure.Beyond Organics day and night moisturisers, their best-selling Rescue Cream for super sensitive skin, and Mother and Baby line include cocoa, mallow, cornflower, rosehip, honeysuckle flower buds, apricot and calendula which feature among a laundry list of natural ingredients that could tempt even a not-so-green goddess to ditch her big brand name skincare and go organic.One of Beyond Organics ground breaking ingredients, featured in the award-winning Regenerating Night Cream and Day Moisturiser, Rejuvenating Serum and Firming Eye Cream all best-sellers – is sea buckthorn, which contains the rare omega 7 (as well as the other skin smoothers, omegas 3,6 and 9) that keeps skin plump. Recent research highlights its anti-aging, cell regeneration, UV protection and anti-oxidisation properties, and Mark Blumenthal of the American Botanical Council predicts, If there ever was a herb that could qualify for the next generation of herbal luminaries, I would nominate sea buckthorn.Marianne believes we need to feed our skin as we do our bodies. By hand blending herbs and flowers in-house, in synergy with each other, we have come up with a holistic formula that I believe goes beyond organic. You dont need to add any fluff or chemicals, because, really, nature gives us everything we need to nurture ourselves.

Ensure Your Feet Are In Tip Top Condition Whatever The Occasion

| August 7, 2009

Whether its to make the most of those must-have gladiator sandals on a rare sunny day, or to don the new strappy Louboutin as you hit the town, we experience the same foot-related dilemma. Just how do you do justice to the shoe of the season when your poor, neglected toes have spent, lets face it, the best part of the year in hibernation?Fortunately for your feet, the experts at footcare specialists Shuropody have prepared a few simple rules of thumb (or should that be toe?) which, if followed, will ensure your tootsies are in tip top condition whatever the occasion.Rule One: Crack Down on CallousesAttack hard skin by soaking your feet in warm, soapy water, then rigorously exfoliating with a specialist foot exfoliater to slough off those flaky dead skin cells the team at Shuropody swears by Callus Crme by Clearzal. Pay extra attention to areas where the skin is particularly hard or dry and use a pumice stone or foot file if required.Rule Two: Lock the Moisture InMoisturising after you exfoliate is absolutely essential, but dont just stop there. For super silky, oh-so-soft skin, slather on a foot-tastic cream like Clearzals Silk Smooth Foot Cream after you shower and before bedtime, then let it work its magic while you catch up on your beauty sleep. For extra deep rehydration, slip a pair of bedsocks on over the top.Rule Three: Kiss Cracked Heels GoodbyeSometimes your feet need a little more than just TLC to make a full recovery. If you suffer from painful, cracked skin, its worth investing in a specially formulated heel treatment such as Scholls Heel Repair Intensive Cream. Cracked heels can be caused by a wide range of factors, including standing up for long periods and wearing thin-soled shoes so make sure you treat your feet to a break and some comfortable footwear too! A podiatrist can advise you on what treatment is best for you, so seek professional advice if your cracked heels are causing you discomfort.Rule Four: Polish Things OffDont let your feet fall at the final hurdle a good pedicure and polish works wonders. If you cant make it to your local salon or Shuropody branch, just follow these basics.Always clip nails straight across this stops ingrowing toenails. Then, smooth edges with a nail file and gently push back cuticles. Use a toe separator or cotton wool to avoid smudging and apply a basecoat, followed by two thin coats of colour, then a topcoat. Finally, blast your toes with cold air from the hairdryer and youre good to go.Rule Five: Remember to Treat Your FeetTo get your feet in superb condition, nothing beats a professional treatment. Lie back, relax and let the experts at Shuropody do the hard work for you. Each store has its own team of qualified podiatrists and chiropodists on site, who offer everything from reflexology and pedicures right through to medical treatment of serious foot ailments.
