My 24 Week Skin Care Challenge - week 5 SUNBURN!

Meet Donna  - the skincare guru from Ibuki Health for my 24 week skin care challenge with Environ. Donna tells it like it is - so there is no hiding from the fact my skin is sun damaged and really in need of some TLC and repair.
I haven't told her yet that I got badly sunburned yesterday while walking the dog...whoops - the first time in YEARS.


It's week 5 of my skin care challenge with Donna and Environ,   I have to say I can feel and see a change! My skin feels firmer, fresher and bounces back from dehydration and being tired a lot quicker than before.


We were discussing last week how most people will pay more for a quick fix of products that will get weight loss or make them look younger for example but very few put the hard work into maintaining and nurturing what they already have. 


The body is an amazing thing-> it regenerates, rewards and keeps on giving us second chances despite the bad environments, lack of attention and 'take it for granted' approach.

My fav product this week the CBoost!

The majority of my clients rate more time spent on work or others than on their own personal well being. If you want to look and feel your personal best then you have to make it your business to do so. Getting started does not have to be expensive. But you need to start looking after your skin NOW if you haven't already.  If you are going to invest in what you put onto your skin then it's worth doing your research and make sure you can have trusted sources that will give you the best advise for your needs and goals. It may change as time goes on but that's where great experts in skincare can tailor products and programs to you.  I'm exceptionally lucky to have tried Environ before years ago so when I met with Daphne, Kelly, Eddie & Krista & co at Margi Fox Distributors I knew the product was fantastic - I just needed to be open to the idea my skin was going need attention with at home products and some key salon treatments before it recovered from years of being outside for work. 


What you put in your body effects how your skin looks too:

Think about what you are putting in your body as well as on your skin. Make sure 70% of your diet is from fresh fruit, vegetables and lean sources of protein. Have a go saying no to dairy for a while to give your digestive system the best advantage to absorb nutrients, vitamins and minerals. Even in Australia where there is loads of sun many people are vitamin D deficient - and this is an important vitamin for the absorption of calcium for healthy bones. Vitamin E, C and A are skin boosters. Be aware of what your natural environment and daily diet is serving you in terms of vitamins and minerals. Ask your health care or pharmacy vitamin specialist to check levels for you.


Overall FRESH IS BEST. The more processed the food the worse it is for you.  So as I'm embarking on the 24 Week Skin Care Challenge I also need to pay attention to having a healthy, fresh and inspiring diet to give my skin all the support it needs to repair, rebuild and feel fantastic!  


Looking forward to getting some new products this week as I think I am going up to the Sequence range...exciting!
