For years I've battled with Melasma, which is a dark pigment of red on my cheeks and nose and nothing has been able to help it....Tried many, many products until I was introduced to Nugene. Within two weeks of using these products I've seen a noticeable difference! The pigment in my skin is starting to even out and my skin just glows. I saw my dermatologist the other day and he noticed my skin too ;) NuGene uses a new stem cell technology that works beneath the surface of the skin that battles, acne, pigmentation problems and wrinkles....What more could you ask for?

Coconut Oil...
1. Skin Care: Coconut oil works wonders as a moisturizer for all skin types, especially dry skin and aging skin, leaving you refreshed and looking wide-awake. The fat in the oil helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles without any irritation. Coconut oil can also help with skin problems like psoriasis, dermatitis, eczema and other skin conditions. In fact, the oil is frequently used in expensive skin care products. I use it at night and it literally makes my skin glow!
2. Stress Relief: Relieve mental fatigue by applying coconut oil to the head in a circular, massaging motion. The natural aroma of coconuts is extremely soothing thus helping to lower your stress level.
3. Digestion: The saturated fats in coconut oil have anti-bacterial properties that help control, parasites, and fungi that cause indigestion and other digestion related problems such as irritable bowel syndrome. The fat in coconut oil also aids in the absorption of vitamins, minerals and amino acids, making you healthier all around.
4. Fitness: Coconut oil has been proven to stimulate your metabolism, improve thyroid function, and escalate energy levels, all of which help decrease your unwanted fat, while increasing muscle. Because of this, coconut oil has shot to popularity by being the world’s only natural low-calorie fat. Sign me up!
5. Healing: When applied on scrapes and cuts, coconut oil forms a thin, chemical layer which protects the wound from outside dust, bacteria and virus. Coconut oil speeds up the healing process of bruises by repairing damaged tissues. Plus, it smells a heck-of-a-lot better than anything from the pharmacy.
6. Hair Care: $20 hair conditioners? I don’t think so! Coconut oil is one of the most nutritious products you can put on your hair. Massage a bit of the oil onto your scalp and presto – no more dandruff. Since it provides the essential proteins required for nourishing damaged hair, it’s used in a ton of over-the-counter hair products anyway. Why not cut to the chase and skip all the unnecessary chemicals? Best way is to brush on the coconut oil to dry hair and leave it on overnight...Then shampoo your hair a few times in the am....this will leave your hair so soft, shiny and frizz free! I LOVE IT!
You can get it at your local health food store like Trader Joe's or Amazon.com

Natural Deodorant...
We all need deodorant, but what doesn’t have to be a necessity is the
toxic ingredients that can be found in most brands. There are more natural
deodorant products available than one might think. When I was on the lookout
for natural deodorant, I was surprised to find that there was quite a
selection. After testing many brands for months I came across this one....
Natural For Her Maximum Protection Deodorant by Herban Cowboy® in a fresh blossom scent. Although it does contain fragrance, on the label, it says that it contains “No parabens, no propylene glycol, no aluminum, no alcohol, and no triclosan”. I put this deodorant to the test the very next day. I workout four to five days a week, and each time I sweat profusely. Would this deodorant do what others couldn’t? Yes, it did, and even after I showered I still had that nice fresh flowery smell. What a relief. It goes on clear, and I haven’t seen it leave any residue on my clothes. So, yes, I love this deodorant. The price is $8.99 at Whole Foods Market, which is where I purchased mine. You can also find it online for about $6.99 from stores such as drugstore.com! It comes in Blossom (My fav), Powder Fresh and they also have one for men!
