If you are exercising outside in this biting cold at the moment, you need Skin Food!

You need something thats going to protect your skin from the elements.

We've used the term "Anti Age" for quite some time now but isn't it time we changed our perspective and the way we view growing into our midyears?

Has your skin become dryer throughout the winter months?

Are you lathering on the facial oil but still feel like you need more?

I've chatted with several women recently who have questioned why their facial oils are not soothing their skin.

We all suffer from puffy eyes from time to time but ageing is the most common cause.

So how do we reduce our puffiness as we reach our midyears and beyond?

Since training and treating clients with Facial Reflexology and Zone Face Lift Therapy, I have noticed a common pattern occurring amongst women of a certain age.

During the consultation, I ask them, “How do you feel when you look in the mirror..?”  Several women put their hands up to their faces and say ” I look awful!” or “I hate the way I look!”
