Gifts to Pamper: the Wireless SKG Neck Massager to Soothe Sore Neck Muscles Anytime

May 3, 2019 · 9 Comments

Regular massage is an important part of our self-care to keep us at our physical and mental best. Most of us are too busy to get a professional massage. Take care of neck pain fast with the wireless SKG Neck Massager.

SKG Neck Massager operates with the touch of a button

WHY NECK MASSAGE IS NECESSARY

Phones, tablets, and laptops cause us to bend our necks in unnatural positions. This results in aches and pains. They sometimes call this “tech neck”. It is the undue stress caused by the posture our necks take while using technology. Other activities also stress our necks. These include travel, reading, gardening, washing dishes, heavy lifting or other household chores. Even sleeping in an odd position can cause a sore neck.

The SKG Neck Massager comes in an attractive box suitable for gift giving

TEN MASSAGE MODES

Many neck massagers offer two or three modes that are mostly vibration. That is soothing but not helpful enough to combat a sore neck.

The SKG neck massager has ten (10) different massage modes. These range from suitable for achy and sensitive to deep muscle stiffness. It uses e-stim or TENS technology, which is found effective in reducing muscle pain and retraining muscles within physical therapy settings. Typically e-stim involves sticky pads and wires, but this device uses neither. The two heads provide massage contact points.

HEAT

There is precise temperature control. Not too hot, but warm enough to soothe achy muscles. I like that there is a heat sensor, so it doesn’t get TOO hot. It is easy to burn sensitive neck skin with moist heating pads. I don’t have to worry about that with this device.

USB CHARGER & BUILT-IN BATTERY

I get four hours of use from one charge. The charger is a convenient USB port that recharges the built-in battery.

I especially like not having to restrict my use of the device to locations near an electrical plug. I can walk around the house or outside and get a soothing neck massage. Most devices require me to stop what I am doing to get relief for aching muscles. The SKG Neck Massager lets me go about my regular day without interruption. I especially like this feature for use while traveling.

Often portable products aren’t powerful. But this device can deliver effective relief for achy neck muscles.

SUPERIOR CLEANSING: UTILYZE™ 2-in-1 Advanced Sonic Facial Cleansing Brush

December 7, 2018 · 4 Comments

Are you washing your face wrong? Improper cleansing prevents serums, lotions, and topicals from absorbing well. It can also introduce bacteria and irritate skin. Many people invest in a facial brush device. There are many facial brush devices available at different price points. How do you pick the right one? Learn how to determine the best facial brush for you, and why we use the UTILYZE™ 2-in-1 Advanced Sonic Facial Cleansing Brush.

UTILYZE™ Brush head close up

CONSIDERATIONS WHEN SELECTING A FACIAL BRUSH DEVICE

Why can’t I just use a washcloth or exfoliating scrub?
Does scientific research back sonic brush efficacy?
What’s the difference between a spinning head brush and a sonic brush?
What cleansing method works best for problem skin?
Which brush has the best features for my skin care needs?

These important questions are addressed below. But first, some features we like about the UTILYZE™ Sonic Facial Cleansing brush:

UTILYZE™ 2-in-1 ADVANCED SONIC FACIAL CLEANSING BRUSH OVERVIEW

This brush has a powerful patented Sonic oscillation of 300 movements per second. It removes impurities without pulling or stretching skin. Ideal for sensitive problematic skin, oscillating bristles exfoliate without redness or irritation. It primes the skin for best absorption of serums and creams.

The Utilyze 2-in-1 Advanced Sonic Facial Cleansing Brush has more features than competing brushes.

ERGONOMIC DESIGN
ANGLED HEAD: The unique 10-degree angle fits facial curves.

WATER RESISTANT: Use it in the shower

Well-packed contents of the Utilyze Brush set

BUT WHY DO I NEED A SONIC SKINCARE BRUSH?

Washcloths and exfoliating scrubs can cause micro-tears in the skin. This is especially so with skin over thirty. This can lead to infection and scaring. Manual exfoliation can also stretch the skin, damaging the collagen.

THE SCIENCE OF SONIC

Does science back sonic cleansing brushes? How does a sonic brush help acne? The Journal of Dermatology explains why sonic cleansing is a superior clean:

“A sonic skin care brush was developed to enhance and provide consistent skin cleansing while preventing the skin from becoming compromised. Utilizing a technology previously used to cleanse the oral cavity, the sonic skin care brush is optimized to work with the skin’s own elasticity providing rapid oscillatory flexing of the infundibular opening. By oscillating at sonic speed the net result is the inelastic comedones become loosened and detached from the infundibular wall and are then cleared from the acroinfundibulum.” [https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17173597/ (2006 Jun;5(2):181-3.)]

What does that mean? Sonic brushes use the skin’s elasticity to loosen comedones. Comedones include blackheads, whiteheads, and non-inflamed blemishes. Comedones generally don’t respond well to topical medications alone. A sonic brush loosens comedones without damaging surrounding skin.

ROTATING/SPINNING BRUSH HEADS VERSUS SONIC BRUSH HEADS

There’s spinning head face brushes under $40, some from respected brand names. Won’t those work as well as a sonic brush?

Well, no. The mechanism and results are different.

On a spinning brush, the bristles are stationary while the head rotates. It spins over and over the skin surface, like a car buffer or polisher. Buffing makes skin feel softer. The spinning can pull off looser dead skin flakes. It can “sweep” into a blackhead surface to begin to dislodge it. But buffing is best for hard surfaces, not live skin. Buffing irritates live skin because it keeps dragging and pulling the skin. Spinning brushes can’t access pores to cleanse them.

On a sonic brush, the bristles oscillate at a precise ‘sonic’ speed. The speed of oscillation instead of rotation makes a difference in the cleansing. Sonic speed is fast enough to make a sound and vibration, like the bass on quality sound speakers. The speed creates tiny, rapid movements. These movements vibrate the bristles. The bristles prod skin pores to shake out and dislodge impurities. They also pull dislodged debris away. It’s like shaking debris off a silk blouse instead of rubbing it out.

“Sonic” speed allows for very gentle contact with the skin but still exfoliates. There is no scrubbing with a sonic brush. There is no pulling, dragging or stretching the skin and delicate collagen fibers.

The faster the sonic speed, the gentler it is to the skin. The fastest sonic brushes, like UTILYZE™, don’t cause redness or irritation because they clean with minimal skin contact.

The slimline, ergonomic, multi-feature UTILYZE™ Sonic Brush

SONIC BRUSHES AND PROBLEM SKIN

Most of us have some form of problem skin or at least aging skin. Problem skin requires extra care in cleansing.
Problem skin includes issues such as:

acne
rosacea
KP (Chicken Bumps)
pseudofolliculitis barbae (chronic razor burn or bumps)
seborrheic dermatitis
delicate, thin or aged skin
photo-damaged skin
other skin conditions requiring special cleaning

Cleansing problem skin is where a sonic brush shines. Sonic brush bristles can cleanse uneven and irregular skin surfaces. These include:

congested pores
acne
scales, and patches
bumps
facial scars

A BRUSH FOR PROBLEM SKIN

UTILYZE™ is an excellent choice for those with skin problems.

Those with problematic skin conditions often wear mineral makeup and heavy-duty concealers. These need scrubbing to remove, further irritating problematic and sensitive skin. Utilyze not only removes heavy duty makeup with any cleanser but does so gently enough to not cause a flare up.

The UTILYZE™ brush even removes seborrheic dermatitis scales on eyebrows with no irritation. That’s impressive!

UTILYZE™ Easy to use menu settings offer 3 speeds and two timed programs

UTILYZE™ BRUSH HEAD OPTIONS

There are brush head types to address specific skin problems. These include:

Acne prone brush head: A gentler brush to remove dead skin flakes, oil, and bacteria without irritating existing blemishes.
Sensitive Brush Head: A thinner and softer head that provides a gentle cleansing experience without irritation
Deep Pore Cleansing Head: A special combination of thin and thick bristles to remove blackheads and deep clean the pores.
Skin Exfoliation Brush Head: A unique brush head with multiple bristle layers to remove crusty, dull and dead skin.

MY SONIC BRUSH EXPERIENCE

I’ve tried pretty much all the brand names that come to mind when you hear the words “sonic facial brush”.

I love how soft my skin feels after using a sonic brush. But some do irritate my skin or leave it a bit dry, dehydrated and tight feeling. The bristles are a bit rough on a few brands. I also dislike how long they take to charge. And the sonic brushes, even the minis, are pretty pricey.

I’ve also dropped and broken a few sonic brushes. The fatter model brush handles don’t fit in my hand very well, especially in the shower.

MY UTILYZE™ EXPERIENCE

My skin’s smooth and glowing after use, without redness, scratchy patches or irritation. My serums apply and absorb quickly after use.

The 10-degree angled head gets hard to reach areas like the blackheads on the sides of my nose, my chin and my throat. I love how even stubborn blackheads purge without damaging my sensitive skin. UTILYZE™ is helpful for my whiteheads that won’t budge. My skin seems far less congested and my pores appear smaller.

I find the massage head useful for helping my topical creams and serums absorb into the skin.

I also prefer the slim design of UTILYZE™. It’s lightweight, thinner and longer than other sonic brushes. It fits into my hand and is easy to hold onto, even in the shower.

iRestore Hair Growth System Months 3 and 4 Update

November 21, 2018 · Leave a Comment

Welcome to our update of the iRestore Hair Growth System for Months 3 and 4!

New to our series? Here is a quick sum-up of the iRestore Hair Growth System:

ABOUT THE IRESTORE HAIR GROWTH SYSTEM AND HOW IT HELPS GROW HAIR

If you’re just joining us on this series, you may be wondering what iRestore does for hair. The iRestore ID-500 Laser Dome is an FDA-Cleared device that is a dome-shaped helmet which is worn for 25 minutes, every other day, for a pain-free laser treatment. The iRestore unit is lightweight and has a generous length cord for ease of movement during use. It is silent, so it can be used while watching TV or while on the computer.

What makes iRestore special? On the inside of the helmet are twenty-one Class 3R lasers and thirty LED diodes that produce a red light in a specific nanometer range. This range has been clinically demonstrated to stimulate hair follicles, thereby enhancing regrowth.

How does iRestore work? Laser light can give dormant hair follicles a “kick-start” by increasing blood flow to the follicles. This brings the right nutrients and supports to bring hair follicles back to life, once again producing hair. Second, the laser can extend the growth phase of hair to restore a healthy hair production cycle once again. As a side bonus, currently producing follicles and the scalp also benefit from increased nutrients and blood flow.

The Style Chicks team has three of our own using the iRestore system for six months to test it for ourselves.

LEE

At about 16 weeks of use I noticed 1/2 inch hairs along my front hairline, my center part, and my temples. Since they are entirely uniform in length I conclude that it is a result of using the iRestore Hair Growth System. The length suggests the growth actually started at three months. Before coloring my hair the new growth was very obvious since the new hair was white contrasting with my dark colored hair.

I’m continuing to use the iRestore Hair Growth System to maintain what’s been achieved and will vary my part each time I use it from now on. This is because it may be that the relatively dense existing scalp hair may be preventing the laser from reaching the follicles on some parts of my head. But where there was no hair definitely appears to be responding well.

Lee After Four Months

COURTNEY

My hair is still shedding (which is normal at the beginning of the process), but I’m really looking forward to seeing new growth. I’m still on the same schedule of using the laser helmet while I answer emails a few mornings a week. It impresses me how well the helmet is made – no signs of wear! It hasn’t stretched out, so no fear of it falling off! After four months, it still looks and feels like new. Impressive!

I hate to sound like a broken record, but I still can’t get over how amazing the iRestore Hair Growth Shampoo is. This time of year my hair tends to get fairly dull due to the change in temperature: within the course of a month, we have gone from 90-degree weather at the beginning of October to almost freezing last night! That is a lot of adjustment for hair. I tend to switch up my routine to richer conditioners, and I wasn’t sure if the shampoo would get my hair clean like it did when my conditioning routine was lighter over the Summer. But it works fantastic! I don’t have to roughly scrub my hair, the shampoo cleanses my hair so gently. No product buildup, and no DHT buildup on my scalp!

The Serum is continuing to coddle the short, thin pieces of my hair in front: while I wished they would grow back to their previous length, they are soft and strong at least.

Courtney After 4 Months

LYN

I don’t detect new hair growth yet per se, but I have noticed my roots feel stronger and are growing less dry and brittle. The hair shafts at the root also seem just a bit thicker. I hope this is a result of the timely removal of DHT from my scalp before it can cause damage. In the past, I didn’t wash my hair daily for fear of drying out my hair and ruining my hair color job. I also did hair growth tricks (like rubbing Coconut Oil on my scalp) that likely just trapped in the DHT, making matters worse. I like how the Hair Growth Shampoo and iRestore 3-in-1 Hair Growth Formula both fight DHT from the inside and out.

The Hair Growth Shampoo continues to be pleasant to use, my hair has not grown tired of it. I like how it lathers well and the Aloe Vera has a nice nourishing dimension, like using a conditioner but without leaving a residue on the hair. I was concerned that the daily shampooing needed to remove DHT would dry out my hair, but it doesn’t dry out my hair or strip hair color. I like the gentle but good clean that leaves my hair looking fuller.

Lyn After Four Months

That’s it for Months Three and Four! Stayed tuned for our Month 5 Update!

Health: Yunmai Premium Smart Scale for Meeting Health & Fitness Goals

November 17, 2018 · Leave a Comment

I’ve had the same scale in my bathroom for most of my life, and it has long lost its’ precision. So when I get weighed at the doctor or weigh myself at the gym, on occasion, I’m in for a bit of a shock. And an overall weight isn’t indicative of several factors, such as muscle mass, my percentage of fat, or percentage of visceral fat. So I’m thrilled to have found the Yunmai Premium Smart Scale which not only measures these important weight-related statistics, but pairs with its’ own Yunmai APP to sync with Apple health, Fitbit, and Google Fit to help track and achieve the overall fitness goals of the entire family.

FEATURE OVERVIEW

The Yunmai Premium Smart Scale measures ten important statistics of weight and overall health. These statistics can upload via Bluetooth to the Yunami app to monitor progress, track goals, or get an advisory report. The ten important statistics include:

Weight
Body Mass Index (BMI)
Body fat ratio
Water weight
Muscle weight
Bone weight percentage
Visceral Fat
Protein
Body Age
Basal Metabolic Rate

Not just a regular scale, it weighs and calculates multiple weight factors

The Yunmai APP is available for iOS (Apple) and Android smartphones. There is also a version for the iPad. The app is free to download and syncs itself up to the scale and can also be used with Apple health, Fitbit, and Google Fit.

The app is available for Android and Apple devices, including iPhone and iPad tablets.

ABOUT THE SCALE

PACKAGING

The packaging is understated and elegant. It is suitable for gift giving. The outer box contains the scale in a good looking inner box, and it is packed quite securely. The scale is secured even in the inner box with a foam wrap envelope. The batteries are included.

AESTHETIC & DESIGN

The scale itself is sleek and modern. The surface is highly reflective but gives an almost enameled look. It is a simple design, but eye-catching.

The LED display is clear, crisp and easy-to-read with a modern chrome circular design.

ABOUT THE YUNAMI APP FEATURES

The Yunmai Premium Smart Scale is a Bluetooth-enabled scale that gives precise measurements of a number of body composition factors. Since it is a scale, it does indeed measure weight, but it gives the reasons behind that weight.

The Bluetooth feature allows you to connect up to the Yunmai App, which is available for both Android and iOS. The Bluetooth pairs effortlessly and automatically shows detailed results of your weigh-in. It keeps a history of your stats so you can track your progress over time. This doesn’t just apply to weight, but all stats that are calculated with each weigh-in. For instance, it tracked that I lost nearly a pound of fat in a week’s time. Considering that a standard weight in pounds (or kilograms, the app gives both options) can be affected by the loss of muscle, water weight, etc., I was glad to know that the lost was fat.

Follow the step-by-step instructions in the Quick Start guide to connect the scale and app.

MY EXPERIENCE USING THE Yunmai Premium Smart SCALE & APP

The app’s comprehensive analysis feature allows you to see both an overview and individual statistics. For instance, my general health report showed that I lost 1.2 lbs over the course of seven days. It gives the option to share this information on Facebook and/or Twitter. This is a helpful option if you and your friends are supporting each other in a quest to get healthier.

The app then gives specifics of Body Components and how they factor into overall weight and health. Here’s an overview of the Body Components:

The first component is BMI. The app explains that BMI (Body Mass Index) is a value derived from the weight and height of a person. It shows where your figure falls on the spectrum of health to unhealthy numbers. I have a BMI of 18.6, which is pretty good.

Screenshot: Yunmai Bluetooth 4.0 Premium Smart Body Fat Scale

The second component is your Body Fat percentage. The percentage comes from the total mass of your fat divided by your overall body mass, so it shows what percentage of your body is fat. This is an excellent percentage to know in order to ascertain what lifestyle changes you might need to make.

Screenshot: the measure of body fat

The third component is Muscle mass. Muscle weighs more than Fat, it is good to know the two percentages. If you have been doing a lot of muscle-building exercises, your weight can go up, even though you are losing fat. So knowing both your fat percentage and your Muscle Mass can give a better understanding of how your efforts affect your overall health, not just your weight.

I never gave Body Water much thought, but it is an interesting statistic to know. It is the total amount of fluid in the body. This is important to know when you may under or over attribute a weight gain or loss to high-sodium foods, or even if you are dehydrated.
Track water weight screenshot
Protein Percentage is a good statistic to have as it is the most abundant kind of molecule in the body aside from water. It assists in the growth, repair, and maintenance of the body, so it is essential to have a proper amount of protein in your system.
A component that is very good to know is the amount of Visceral fat in your system. Visceral fat is the fat that is stored in the abdominal cavity and surrounds many internal organs. Since a high level of Visceral Fat can be a predictor of metabolic disease, this is a very important statistic to track over time. I was glad to see that my figure was low but healthy.

Yunmai app screenshot

Bone Mass is the estimated weight of bone mineral in the body. Many women have lower than expected bone mass, but this can be reversed with dietary modifications if it is caught early enough. This feature is very helpful.
BMR is a very interesting statistic. Your Basal Metabolic Rate is the amount of energy expended while at rest. Basically, it is the number of calories per day that you burn if you are sedentary. My BMR is 1222, which motivates me to get in a little bit of extra exercise since I can burn off weight fairly quickly if I eat a healthy diet.
Body Age is the last component and is a rather motivating one. It shows the age of your body based on health and fitness based on all of the Body Components combined. My Body Age is two years younger than my chronological age, but it does motivate me to work harder to keep my body and health at its’ optimal!

NOTABLE FEATURES

This is a great scale for families. The app can track the stats of up to 16 individual users and can be used on separate devices.

The app allows for adding up to sixteen family members to monitor and track progress

A screenshot from the app which allows for adding up to sixteen family members to monitor and track progress

The extra large display is very useful: my vision isn’t terribly bad, but some scales are hard to see. The digital display is quite clear on this scale.

Another feature of this scale is that it still works even if the floor surface is not entirely flat, such as an older house, or on wide wood beams, tiles, or carpeting. This assures consistent results.

This scale is quite beautiful and works with a variety of decors, and it gives very helpful information to help you better manage your health. Of course, you should always work with your doctor if you are making any major lifestyle change, especially if you have a pre-existing condition.

WHERE TO FIND IT

iRestore Hair Growth System One Month Update

July 11, 2018 · 5 Comments

Here at Style Chicks, we’ve been running an in-house trial of the iRestore Hair Growth System with three of our own team. Learn more about the iRestore Hair Growth System here and read our one-month reports with pictures below.

LEE

The iRestore Hair Growth System has easily incorporated into my beauty routine. I use it regularly while watching TV.

The shampoo is very nice to use, taming my wiry locks without residue that weighs hair down. Even apart from its anti-DHT properties, I would buy this shampoo.

The supplements are easy to take but it is too soon to know if they are contributing to regrowth.

That’s also true of the hair serum but I can report that it doesn’t weigh down hair in any way like some products I’ve tried that have made my hair look thinner and separated. It also does not leave hair greasy, and there is no unpleasant odor or feel to the serum.

Lee After One Month

COURTNEY

Using the device is pretty easy – I keep it on my desk and use it when I’m answering emails in the morning. The time goes fast since I’m focused on something else. Actually, I really like that it automatically turns off when the session is done because otherwise, I would lose track of time!

I take the supplement after dinner, and while it is too soon to see any effects, I do feel like this is a quality formula and it isn’t hard to swallow, which is rare among supplements containing Biotin.

I really love the shampoo. It’s gentle but really gets my hair clean. More importantly, it really gets my scalp clean. So in addition to removing DHT, I’ve noticed more movement in my hair and it is silkier since using this shampoo. There is a bit more loft in my hair, which is great. Plus, it is so shiny!

I think my favorite part of the iRestore Hair Growth System is the serum. Massaging it into my scalp has turned into a bit of a decadent ritual. Not only does it feel great while I’m doing it, but it is great knowing that I’m doing something to prevent hair loss and fortify existing hair!

I’ve had a bit more hair shedding than normal this month, but I don’t think it’s a side-effect of the iRestore Hair Growth System since it has only been a month.

Courtney After One Month

LYN

While I **THINK** or at least hope my hair loss is not very detectable to others after I wash and style my hair, it does reduce my hairstyle choices.

Examining my hair, I’ve several shorter growth sections. These aren’t deliberate styled layers, they are shortened growth comprised of thinner, drier texture hairs.

I am thankful to find the iRestore Hair Growth System now because if even half these shorter sections stopped producing hair, I believe my hair loss would be very obvious.

I’m also glad to realize the DHT correlation to hair loss, and how removing DHT prevents future loss, and the laser can improve volume and trigger growth in dormant hair follicles.

HELMET USE: So far compliance has been easy. If I know I’ll be out of town or busy during the week, I make a point to reschedule my iRestore use so that I don’t miss the three times a week use requirement.
SUPPLEMENT: The hair loss supplement is easy to swallow, and as a bonus, my short, stubby, below the quick nails are starting to grow from the Biotin. It is really too early to expect to see much with my hair though.
SHAMPOO: I was concerned about washing my hair daily with the iRestore shampoo would strip my hair color, but so far, so good. I still waited 2-3 days post-color and skip washing so the color sets, so having the supplements and serum for back up is helpful. I formerly used a shampoo for dry, colored hair and I was afraid daily shampooing would parch my already dry hair, but even if I don’t condition, my hair stays soft and shiny. My hair felt so soft after use I thought there must be silicones in the shampoo, but I don’t see anything of the sort on the ingredient list.

Here are my one-month updates pictures compared to last month:

Lyn After One Month

So there you have it. One month in, and so far, no glitches!
