GET YOUR GLOW ON NATURALLY: Probulin Probiotic Skin Care

November 27, 2017 · Leave a Comment

Want the secret to an amazing skin glow? The answer may surprise you. Think topical probiotics. Skin is first defense from pathogens such as bacteria and germs, our skin is constantly fighting to keep us healthy. And sometimes that hard fight shows which makes skin look dull and sluggish. By topically equipping skin with the Probulin Probiotic Skin support topical system, not only is the body healthier, but the skin becomes more resilient to topical irritants and looks better because skin renewal is supported, better moisturized, and brighter.

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PROBIOTICS AND SKIN

Taking oral probiotics for clear skin is an increasingly common beauty trick. While probiotics are most often associated with digestive health, many report an improved appearance of their skin when they take oral probiotics. This makes sense because as the body’s largest organ, skin can derive benefit from anything that improves our overall health.

But that’s only half the battle. If you ever used a Yogurt face mask you know that good bacteria makes skin look good and feel soft while calming irritation and inflammation. Skin inflammation, the natural reaction to foreign toxins, ravages skin by causing distorting swelling that results in stretched skin and eventual sagging and wrinkles. Just like topical Vitamin C serums best equip skin to make collagen by supplying vitamin C precisely and locally, topically applying probiotics stops inflammatory responses by eliminating the source.

Probulin pairs probiotics with natural ingredients like citrus to make skin healthy, nourished and hydrated

WHAT IS GAINED BY TOPICAL PROBULIN PROBIOTIC USE

That natural youthful glow from a post-yogurt facial is not all in your head: Clinical studies back that the use of Probiotic bacteria makes both skin and hair look healthy. (Levkovitch, T., et al. Probiotic bacteria induce a “glow of health.” PLOS One. 2013. 8(1): e53867.)

But the benefits that can be gained from topical probiotics use go well beyond what a DIY home facial can achieve. Probulin’s line of skincare ranges from cleansers to eye creams and contains Probuskin, which is a Lactococcus Ferment Lysate, giving the skin flora the optimal balance. It also contains numerous naturally nourishing, hydrating ingredients like African Marula Oil, Shea Butter, and organic Aloe Vera, Coconut and Vitamin C from lemon and orange, that encourage skin to look its’ best and can even achieve a younger look by undoing the ravaging effects of sun damage, dark spots, and inflammation.

Natural ingredients that nourish and hydrate the skin

WHAT IS SO SPECIAL ABOUT PROBULIN SKIN CARE

Probulin probiotics support unseen skin health processes that contribute to the skin’s natural regenerative and defensive mechanisms. The products are also very gentle so they don’t dry it or strip it the skin of vital oils or nutrients.

When applied topically, probiotics also benefit skin health by providing moisture, UV radiation protection, as well as support the mechanisms that produce brighter and healthier skin, and speeding skin renewal.

Natural ingredients paired with topical probiotics protect and improve skin

WHY TRUST PROBULIN PRODUCTS

All Probulin products are formulated by a team of two doctors: a board-certified Naturopathic Doctor and a prominent gastroenterologist and author who works extensively with Probiotics. Probulin is Non-GMO, Gluten Free, Soy Free, Wheat Free, Dairy Free, and Magnesium Stearate Free.

PUTTING PROBULIN TO THE TEST: MY EXPERIENCE

We tried four products of the Probulin line: the Probulin Probiotic Facial Cleansing Gel, Probulin Probiotic Facial Serum, Probulin Probiotic Day Cream, and Probulin Probiotic Night Cream.

Probulin Probiotic Facial Cleansing Gel

The cleanser is the first step in the system. Probulin Probiotic Facial Cleansing Gel is a gentle made for all skin types with a natural hint of lavender and citrus. Made with Sugar Cane extract, Maple Sugar extract, Citrus Aurantium Fruit Extract (Orange), and Lemon Fruit Extract, the high Vitamin C base helps make skin brighter and visibly healthier.

Probulin Probiotic Facial Cleansing Gel has a blend of lemon, orange, and lavender oils

The scent is light and pleasant, it creates a soft foamy light lather and washes away clean and skin does not feel tight after use.

The scent is lavender and citrus from natural essentials oils

What’s so special about this cleanser? Skin, like your gut, has an ecosystem that requires a delicate balance in cleansing so as not to unduly strip away good bacteria and natural oils. Unlike most cleansers that strip away healthy nutrients, moisturizing oils, and good bacteria that promote and maintain skin health, Probulin cleanser retains the helpful bacteria and oils, resulting in less skin dryness and premature wrinkles.

Ingredients include sugar cane, lemon, orange, maple sugar and lavender

It is to be used twice a day before applying the eye and face creams and the intensive serum.

Just one pump for face and throat

I also felt the Cleansing gel makes my skin appear noticeably brighter.

PROBULIN PROBIOTIC FACIAL SERUM

Probulin PROBIOTIC Facial Serum is an intensive treatment, it is applied prior to the other creams including the day cream or eye cream immediately after cleansing.

Probulin Probiotic Facial Serum

While the skin is not left dry or stripped of natural oils from the cleanser, the intensive cream still offers a balancing dose of intensive hydration. Only a small bit is needed for the entire face, apply sparingly focusing on areas that could use some extra attention such as forehead and around the mouth. It absorbs quickly and leaves a dewy but not sticky finish. Of note, the serum is unscented.

One pump for the face and throat

Probulin Probiotic Day Cream

After the Serum is applied, follow up with the Day Cream. It is a light texture that does not feel sticky or heavy on the skin. My makeup applies smoothly atop the cream, with no pilling or melting. The scent is pleasant and my skin feels silky smooth.

Probulin Probiotic Day Cream Ingredients include Sugar Cane, Maple Sugar, Coconut, Aloe, Lemon and Orange

Makeup goes on smoothly over the PROBULIN Probiotic Day Cream

PROBULIN PROBIOTIC NIGHT CREAM

The Night Cream is light, creamy fluid that absorbs quickly into the skin. My skin just drank it in and it left a dewy but not sticky glow. I really like how great my skin looks when I awake in the morning: soft, dewy and fresh as if I got a great nights’ sleep, even when I didn’t.

Probulin Probiotic Night Cream

The Night Cream is a luxe fluid consistency

Absorbs into skin immediately

Ingredients include aloe, lemon, orange, lavender, and chamomile

RESULTS

On the whole, with the combination of products, my skin is less irritated and appears brighter and smoother. I love the glow and evenness of my skin tone, it looks healthier and I look more awake. I didn’t realize how my skin looked somewhat sluggish even when wearing makeup until I saw how healthy it could look without foundation.

CONCLUSION

The Probulin line of Probiotic topical skin care treatment provides the skin with the defenses to counteract pathogens while promoting skin renewal processes. When paired with an oral probiotic, the skin can attain its’ optimal balance for healthy skin that glows! The cleanser washes away clean and the Day Cream, Serum and Night Cream absorb well without a greasy feel. I find that inflammation and redness are reduced while using the products and I am experiencing few acne breakouts. My skin looks fresh and dewy. Don’t rely on makeup to glow, get a natural glow from probiotic products that improve your skin by supporting the body’s own natural mechanisms to promote skin health and renewal.

HAIR: Treasured Locks SuperNatural Curl Tamer 100% Natural Herbal Hair Mask

January 24, 2017 · 1 Comment

Tame unruly hair with a lush, natural hair mask containing Amla (a.k.a. Indian Gooseberry Oil) & Shikakai

Nothing beats a good hair day, does it?

But what constitutes a good hair day is subjective. It seems that many curly-haired gals envy the smooth, shiny, silky hair of straight-haired gals. And often those with straight hair wish they had a head full of curly ringlets! And then there are those of us with hair that marches to its’ own drummer and won’t stay straight OR form a soft, loose curl pattern. Natural curly hair is beautiful. But sometimes, you want to look like yourself, just more polished. If your hair has too much natural curl or frizz to work it into the style you want, then take a look at Treasured Locks SuperNatural Curl Tamer.

Treasured Locks SuperNatural Curl Tamer

Treasured Locks SuperNatural Curl Tamer is an herbal hair mask that provides major conditioning, frizz reduction and it loosens too-curly curls. This mask allows curly head girls to create straight hairstyles that last. If you straighten your hair and it still looks too wavy or wiry, or your hair looks dry and brittle once straightened, SuperNatural Curl Tamer can help.

SuperNatural Curl Tamer, is foremost, natural. It conditions and hydrates all hair types, but is especially effective on natural African-American hair, relaxed hair and biracial hair. It also works wonders on naturally wiry or coarse hair, as seen on our model. Her hair grows in several sections, like a bunch of cowlicks, with uneven waves and both very curly and straight ends that will not be coaxed into a softer hot roller curl. It is also resistant to hair straightening without LOTS of product combined with lots of flat ironing. Any straightening attempts to leave her hair dry and damaged. She was concerned that chemical straighteners would add to the frizzy and damaged appearance of the hair or potentially cause breakage. So our model was eager to try a natural mask that could both condition her hair and help tame her curls into a manageable style.

WHAT’S SPECIAL ABOUT TREASURED LOCKS SUPERNATURAL CURL TAMER HAIR MASK

If you try to battle too-curly hair into a straight style, you likely use hot tools that can cause hair breakage. This pulling motion is also harsh on the hair roots, as hair is being pulled and yanked straight. Treasured Locks has you covered with a fantastic combination of ingredients that not only softens and conditions hair, but makes it stronger, both at the root and within the body of the hair. Best of all, it enhances the curl patterns of hair to make them softer, pliable and workable. We love that it is natural and uses some of our favorite hair-friendly ingredients.

Ingredients:

Henna strengthens brittle hair cuticles and reduces breakage. It also can loosen a natural curl. The henna works more efficiently when combined with extracts like Amla (Indian gooseberry) and Shikakai (Acacia Concinna). Both extracts are ingredients in this SuperNatural Curl Tamer.

Amla is known as a wonder fruit; this is the famed Indian Gooseberry Oil, a non-greasy wonder oil that has been used in India for years to help grow long, silky and shiny hair. Indian Gooseberry is an ingredient I look for in hair care because it makes my hair soft, silky, and pliable. Often found in high-end expensive hair care product lines, Amla nourishes both hair and scalp and is reputed to promote hair growth and prevent gray hair.

Acacia (Shikakai) improves hair texture as a conditioning agent, and it nourishes the scalp to promote hair growth.

Neem Oil is like a facial for your scalp, removing sebum, dandruff and dry skin flakes and eczema that can all impair hair growth. It promotes hair growth by improving the health of the scalp, giving it a soothing, protective barrier. It also makes hair soft. Of note, you cannot smell the Neem within this product.

Rose powder adds fragrance as well as softens hair.

Multani Mitti is better known as Fuller’s Earth. It removes toxins from hair and scalp. It also facilitates blood circulation, which helps hair growth. It is a conditioning cleanser that makes hair smooth and shiny.

Treasured Locks SuperNatural Curl Tamer

OUR EXPERIENCE USING SUPERNATURAL CURL TAMER

Like a spa treatment for hair, allocate at least 30 minutes to one hour to relax with the treatment mask in your hair. We also recommend using the Treasured Locks Hydracap to keep the mask on your hair and off your neck, as well as keeping the mask warm, which enhances the conditioning properties of several of the ingredients. Read more about Hydracaps in this post.

MIX WITH WATER: Follow the directions and mix the contents in a bowl with water, slowly adding the water to keep the correct consistency. The directions don’t indicate how much water to use, for reference I used 200ml (5 3/4 ounces) but could have used a bit more for a liquid consistency. It made a full coloring bowls worth of product to apply to the hair, plenty even if you have long and thick hair.
APPLICATION: Apply it to the hair with a hair coloring brush or wide tooth comb. I stopped periodically during application to massage it into the hair from scalp to ends, ensuring all of the hair was coated. I expected it to smell different due to a few of the ingredients having naturally “notable” aromas, but I just detected the Fuller’s Earth, rose, and maybe a bit of the Amla. Neither the model or me could smell the Neem.
WRAP HAIR: Wrap hair with the Hydracap and blow-dry it onto your head. If you don’t have a Hydracap, pin your hair up into a disposable processing cap or saran wrap. Leave in for 30 minutes to one hour. We did the full hour.
Rinse out the product and wash hair as directed on the package

Treasured Locks SuperNatural Curl Tamer

RESULTS

We allowed the models’ hair to dry naturally, no leave-in treatments or product and without the use of a dryer or other hot tools.

The curls were much more manageable, the hair did not feel weighed down, and the hair felt soft and strong, there was no crunchy feel. It required no product in the hair for the curls to remain looser, which usually it takes lots of product to get any style to stick. The straight hairstyle lasted until the model washed it out. Much to her delight, frizz was reduced, even when she allowed her hair to dry naturally.

CONCLUSION:

Treasured Locks SuperNatural Curl Tamer uses hair-healthy, all natural ingredients to provide an all-natural remedy to reduces frizz, as well as condition and hydrate all hair types. Good for the scalp and the hair, it provides a healthy, natural remedy to relax curls and frizz, leaving hair healthier and stronger in the process.

Morganna’s Alchemy INSTANTLIFT

November 16, 2016 · Leave a Comment

We tried Morganna’s Alchemy INSTANTLIFT, from the folks who brought us our highly rated Morganna’s Bellatox.

If you’re not yet familiar with Morganna’s Alchemy, I might mention it is the phyto-dermo-cosmetic line produced by chemist Maya Hyppolite-Williams M.A.

Morganna’s Alchemy INSTANTLIFT

INSTANTLIFT contains no silicone – the usual method of temporary wrinkle reduction – but instead is a green-chemistry approach utilizing eco-certified organic extracts to achieve tightening effects. In this particular product Sorghum, Chickory Root and Tara Extracts are the major agents of change. Sorghum is a cereal-like plant from Africa. Its extract has the consistency of melted sugar which enables it to go on the skin invisibly. Tara and Chickory Root have the same property and, additionally, add moisture to the skin. These active ingredients are used in high concentrations and are said to act synergistically.

For quite some time I’ve been attracted to products claiming to provide instant temporary lift and have tried several. My experience with each and every one previously used was that a white film developed upon drying. Evidently, this was expected by the manufacturers since some products even suggested ways to deal with the white film, such as blotting with a damp cloth or tissue. I did follow that suggestion but could not lose the white film until I washed the product off entirely. Since I did not care for the stiff feel of those products on my face I did proceed to do just that, so never learned how long the temporary tightening effect might actually last. One of those products made my face quite itchy, as well.

Well, the proof is in the pudding or, in this case, the serum. Although there was no specific instruction to apply to a cleansed face, that’s what I did. Or, more specifically, to half my cleansed face to be better able to observe any change. I spread the serum to the more saggy and wrinkled right side of my face, the side I sleep on where gravity has taken a bit more of a toll. A pea-size drop easily covered (half) forehead to jowl. For those who need address only the eye area a small drop would be sufficient. There was a very light, pleasant floral fragrance that completely dissipated almost immediately. Since I tend to be very allergic, I typically avoid fragrance but the scent associated with INSTANTLIFT didn’t bother me at all. However, if you can’t or don’t care to use a product with even a briefly detectable, light fragrance, this may be a consideration for you.

Morganna’s Alchemy INSTANTLIFT

There was no residue at all, not on my face or fingers and no dreaded white film which had proved a bane to my previous forays into quick, temporary skin youthifying. My skin felt comfortable and, upon checking after 10 minutes or so, I did notice a definite wrinkle reduction and lift. Even if this had been the full extent of the improvement I would have been quite satisfied. However, the manufacturer calls the result an almost instant lift in that the maximum initial results occur about one hour out from application and there was, indeed, some additional improvement by the end of an hour.

The lift was noticeable enough to trigger somewhat of a dilemma. While I lost no time applying the serum to the other side of my forehead and crow’s feet (as well as my entire turkey gobble), since I had achieved jowl symmetry by applying only to the droopier jawline, I pondered if I should just leave the naturally tighter left side untreated. Well, curiosity got the best of me, and I did apply the serum to the left side and waited. A lift was achieved and, with the scrutiny one would probably only give their own face, my “good side” now was a little tighter than the other side of the face that had been first treated. So, I applied a second treatment to only the right jowl, and that brought me symmetrical again. In the future, I will either repeat treatment on the less-tight jaw line for maximum effect or just treat the droopier side alone if pressed for time.

Morganna’s Alchemy INSTANTLIFT

An additional plus stated for the INSTANTLIFT product verses silicone-paste based temporary wrinkle tightener is the ability to easily apply makeup after using which is, apparently, not the case with the silicone-containing products. And I can understand why that would be so since the silicone-based products tend to ball. I, personally, don’t use foundation but do apply under eye and spot cover and those products went on beautifully after INSTANTLIFT.

So, I would report being not only satisfied but delighted with my INSTANTLIFT trial. It did what it claimed it would and the effects lasted all day. Upon clinical testing a 43% mean decrease of wrinkling occurred with the best subject achieving an 81% decrease so, based on that information, the average user can reasonably expect a very satisfactory result. My experience with the eye area was especially striking, rolling back time a decade or more. I can’t begin to tell you how that made me feel!

One other thing to pass along, though I haven’t used the product long enough speak from experience, is the manufacturer indicates cumulative long-term results from the Tara Root in INSTANTLIFT. I will be continuing to use this product and will let you know when my personal jury comes back on this point!

First Update:
When I prepared for bed the temporary improvement didn’t end when INSTANTLIFT was washed off and even this morning some noticeable benefit remained.

Skin: Morganna’s Bellatox for Dry Dehydrated Skin

August 29, 2016 · Leave a Comment

My skin became seriously dry this week. Despite wearing adequate amount of sunscreen, the high UV index took a toll, and I have been so busy that I haven’t been properly hydrating. On top of that, I emptied out the last of my La Mer, which is usually what I use to save my face when it gets this dry.

So I am thrilled that I have Morganna’s Bellatox to use on my skin. As we all know, Parisian Girls do skincare right. Easy but effective. And that is precisely what Bellatox is.

Morganna’s Bellatox for Dry Dehydrated Skin

Despite the name, Bellatox doesn’t have botox, or any toxin, for that matter. It has natural ingredients that hydrate the skin and plump wrinkles, so they are far less visible.

Bellatox is unique because of four primary ingredients. These are Hydrolized Vegetable Protein, Spilanthol, Imperata Cylindrica, and Hyaluron. These four ingredients provide the following specific beauty benefits:

SMOOTHING & LIGHT DEFLECTING:

Hydrolized Vegetable Protein is what gives the skin an appearance of instant smoothness, especially on wrinkles and imperfections. It has a light deflecting property that makes light bounce off the surface of the wrinkle or imperfection, so the eye sees a smooth surface. It covers a multitude of beauty “sins” including enlarged pores, discoloration, wrinkles, crows feet and the tiny lines around the mouth; all these items seem less obvious upon application.

REDUCTION IN FUTURE WRINKLES AND CRINKLES:

Spilanthol is a safe, pre-emptive way to combat wrinkles. It does this with a topical anesthetic that relaxes the tension muscles that have the contractions that result in wrinkles. This is different from Botox injections that stop natural muscle movement. Spilanthol only impacts involuntary contraction muscle reactions, which is what causes wrinkling around the eyes, the “eleven lines” between the eyebrows, and frown lines.

DEEP MOISTURIZATION FOR 4 HOURS:

Imperata Cylindrica is a common weed in some areas of the world. In the beauty world, it is known for the ability to deliver deep moisture to the skin extendedly for four hours. This is part of why the skin appears so very dewy upon Bellatox application, but it is not greasy or sticky like some moisturizers.

PLUMPING, MOISTURIZING, AND ASSISTING ACTIVE INGREDIENT ABSORPTION: HYALURON

. Hyaluron is better known to many as Hyaluronic Acid, which is naturally occurring in the body but diminishes as we age. Hyaluron is an instant plumper: it plumps up wrinkles to that they appear smaller or non-existent. It also plumps the lips, giving a youthful, pouty, wrinkle-free look. Hyaluron plumps the skin by drawing moisture and holding it there: which makes it a perfect pairing for the moisture laden Imperata Cylindrica. Hyaluron can hold up to 50 times its’ weight in water, making your skin about as dewy as you can get. It is one of my favorite go-to ingredients in skincare. Hyaluron has another beauty benefit for long-term results that being the ability to draw active ingredients deeper into the skin, via the water molecules, than the ingredients could reach on their own. That means the moisture reaches a deeper layer of the skin, as well as the Spilanthol can pre-empt deeper appearing wrinkles.

RESULTS

After the first day I used it, my skin had a vibrant, dewy glow, like it was lit from within. Several people complimented me on how good my skin looked during the day. It has a serum consistency, and it isn’t sticky under sunscreen, Vitamin C serums, or makeup. I loved how evenly and smoothly my concealer, powder, blush and foundation applied over the velvety surface. Although after a few uses, when I wear the Bellatox, my skin does not need complete foundation coverage, so I often opt to skip foundation entirely except for on a few areas such as my dark undereye circles and an occasional blemish. I allow about 5 minutes before applying my makeup, but you could apply your makeup as soon as your sunscreen dries down over Bellatox.

Product Review: Liz Earle Naturally Active Haircare Botanical Shine Shampoo and Botanical Shine Conditioner for Dry or Damaged Hair

December 18, 2010 · Leave a Comment

I had the chance to try out Liz Earle’s new line of haircare products when it was sent to me – their Botanical Shine Shampoo and Botanical Shine Conditioner for Dry or Damaged Hair. When the weather gets bitter cold like it has been the last week or so (yes, I know this is warm and balmy compared to how it will be in a month or so…), my hair dries out in record time. When I started using a once a week deep-moisture hair mask every day to keep up with the weather, I decided it was time to try out Liz Earle’s latest offerings.

We’ve reviewed other Liz Earle product before, but just as a quick rundown of the line – Liz Earle Naturally Active products – no artificial preservatives, only natural ingredients that have been specially picked from around the globe. This stuff is good for you!

So one day I tried out the Shine Shampoo and the Shine Conditioner for Dry or Damaged Hair. A lot of all-natural shampoos leave my hair kinda dull and flat, but not this one. The consistency of both shampoo and conditioner is smooth and light. It feels good in your hand, and you don’t need a lot of shampoo to get a nice lather (that’s another thing that puts this line ahead of the pack of natural shampoos – I always have a hard time getting a decent lather with others – not this one). The scent is fresh and very pleasant, but not overpowering. That’s a real plus for me. It’s actually calming, and makes for a nice spa-like shower. And once you wash it out, the scent is gone – your hair just smells really clean and nice – not perfumey. While it contains 8 essential oils, it is really quite gentle of a scent – and I’m pretty sensitive to scents. It washed out smooth without having to scrub, and leaves hair fresh – even on the second day it smelled and felt just as fresh as when I got out of the shower.

The conditioner is fantastic – I expected a light conditioning given the smoothly flowing consistency. However, it provided truly deep hydration and washed out clean as well. I loved how both products felt on – if you want to add a little spa experience to your everyday shower, then you definitely will love this line.

I dried my hair without styling product, and I got smooth, bouncy waves with good volume at the crown. My hair moved easily and freely, and I looooved running my finger through my hair after. The shine was incredible – that is probably what I find the most impressive. You’ll have light but powerful oils to thank for that – orange and apple oils, which combine for that great scent.

Since it doesn’t have harsh chemicals, I recommended it to Style Chick Lyn, who had just got an elusively perfect hair color about a week before. She was worried about the color washing out, as it quickly tends to do on her freshly colored hair. I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking to extend their color – and since the fresh feeling lasts longer than other shampoos and conditioners, you don’t have to wash as often, which will prolong your color.
