Revitalization


Repairing damaged hair may be one of the most important routine for some of us. We call it routine because many of us who are interested in beautifying our hair use hair conditioners and treatments on regular basis. But sometimes we wonder... do repairing really work? Maybe none of us care if our hair is truly healthy; as long as they look healthy, we may not care if it's truly repaired or nourished. But the question is: isn't repairing damaged hair the same as repairing an old car that requires maintenance every single month? In other words, wouldn't it be natural to assume repaired hair would be damaged far more easily than just-grown hair?

We're not just talking about hair beautification. When we drive a car produced decades ago, we'll eventually have to buy a new car for safer trips to work, school, or wherever you go. Just as you'll have to lose the damaged car, isn't it natural that keeping damaged hair would lead to hair loss?

And even more, you can't buy a new car for free; you'll have to be able to afford it. What happens when you can't afford the nutrition to create new hair from your scalp? Your brain would automatically judge that your extremely damaged hair would no longer be in shape for use, and it'll no longer hold onto it even if you believe it's better not to look bald.

Don't we just wish our hair is revitalized rather than repaired?

When we just mentioned the word "revitalized", it may have turned on some of your lightbulbs... Many of you are probably familiar with the popular eyelash revitalizer called RevitaLash. And we're sure tons of people who've used it before just simply loved RevitaLash - what can ever be greater than having gorgeous eyelash just like you did when you were in your teens?

And for those of you who agree with us so far, we have a wonderful news...

The Athena Cosmetics has created a hair conditioner in the line of RevitaLash!



They've done all the fancy tricks for you; all you need to do is to work the foam evenly through damaged hair or where hair loss is rapid after shampooing and before drying. More you use it, more your hair will be revitalized!


Works for both men and women.

BB Cream


Is anyone aware of a popular cosmetic product called BB Cream?

Those of you from Asia may be familiar with BB Cream due to the outbreak of skin care obsession among Asian ladies. However, as far as we observe the US market here in OC, we assume the Americans have not yet been familiarized with BB Cream, so we're here to introduce you to a magical cosmetic cream that will make any ladies' life easier! For those of you who know about BB Cream or who've actually used BB Cream before but never really paid attention or liked it because of its strong scent or whatever reason that kept you away from it, keep reading this page to learn about a BB Cream that reached its perfection!

So what IS BB Cream? "BB" stands for "Blemish Balm". Originated centuries ago in Germany, BB Cream was utilized to beautify the overall facial skin by curing and eliminating blemish in the delicate parts. Recently within the past decade, the Koreans decided to take in the idea of balming blemish into the cosmetic world; they created what is now called the BB Cream in Asia which beautifies the skin and acts as everyday makeup. The news on new magical BB Cream eventually spread out all over Asia, and the Japanese couldn't resist to evolve BB Cream even more. Many who have used it are most likely to love it to its extreme that their skin will be addicted to it; its popularity gained its own place in millions of ladies' makeup pouches.

Why wouldn't any lady love to sleep in just 10 minutes more every morning? Here are what BB Cream does for you:
-moisturizes
-SPF
-acne-prevention
-anti-aging
-foundation/concealer
Just think of how much money and space in your makeup pouch you're spending on all these products individually. Why not facilitate your life and enjoy a slightly longer sleep in the morning, or kick back and enjoy a cup of coffee or tea in your patio before work, instead of hastily rubbing endless queue of lotions?

There are many Asian brands that carry BB Cream, and anyone could still buy a random BB Cream online. But rather than spending money on a random one just because they all look the same, wouldn't it be the best to choose the one that beautifies and facilitates you the best?

It sounds magical, but it's just depressing to know about the cons on BB Cream. First, it only comes in one tone. No matter how much the manufacturers put their best efforts to create a BB Cream that fits all skin colors, it still may look unnatural for those with darker skin colors, considering these creams are designed for Asian skin tones. Also, many of these - although this depends on the brand - don't have pleasing scent. We're not expecting these creams to smell like apples and bananas, but why can't they make scent-free BB Creams?



We'll admit we made this sound a little hopeless, but no worries - this is why we're here. And finally, we'd like to introduce you to the 'best BB Cream' that the Japanese managed to establish... a round of applause to NANOCE BB MOIST CREAM!



We've mentioned numerous factors any BB Cream can aid your beauty life, but NANOCE BB MOIST CREAM is even smarter:
-toning lotion
-essence lotion
-SPF 30PA++
-acne-prevention
-anti-aging
-base makeup
-liquid foundation
-concealer
-powdered foundation
... and we're not lying.
And that's not it; NANOCE BB MOIST CREAM comes in two different colors so those of you with darker skin would still look natural!



Natural Ocre for those with lighter tone, Healthy Ocre for those with darker tone.

GermaSalt


Just loving the beautiful weather out here in Newport:)

Time flies and we just can't believe it's March already, but we notice the weather is getting nicer every day and we realize spring has come. As the weather gets warmer, we'd assume that active beautifying ladies are looking for an essential beauty tip - to lose weight.

Many women try to eat less or exercise hard. Regulation of food intake and enhancement of metabolism through physical activities are always good when it doesn't exceed your limit, but there's another thing we want everyone to keep in mind - detox. Eating right and burning fat may decrease your weight and form your body into a fit figure, but won't clean out your waste materials from the inside. Detoxification is important to become beautiful from both inside and outside.

So what can we do to detoxify our body? The basic detoxification techniques may include drinking good amount of water, drinking beverages that induce detox such as tea or coffee, stretching every part of interest for at least 40 seconds, or doing yoga poses.

However, considering water and beverage intake may be limited, and also yoga and stretching takes up too much time from a busy beautifier, we'll introduce an easy way to detoxify your body - germanium bath.

Did you know that soaking 20 minutes in germanium bath is worth 2 hours of aerobic exercise? It's one of the easiest way to lose weight AND relax after a long day of work!

And for those of you who just wants to shower, don't have time to exercise nor spend 20 minutes in GermaBath....

We recommend the GermaSalt!



GermaSalt is even faster than a regular germanium bath. While showering, just rub the salt into areas where you feel obese OR sore, gently massage the area as you add GermaSalt as needed, and you'll experience a relaxed, refreshed, and detoxified sensation where you had the complexity at!

Collagen


Has anyone heard of the phrase "age twenty is a turning point for skin aging"? We believe the phrase is originally said in Japan, and the Japanese women strongly believe in it ever than before. Let's face it - when we were in our teens, we had no idea what skin aging actually is. We just couldn't believe our beautiful skin will eventually deteriorate and become dry and dull. The "adults" would come up to us with the eye of envy and tell us stories about how at one point in their life their skin used to be beautiful too, and we had no idea what they're talking about.

So anyways, what causes the skin to age? One of the very many convincing reasons established by scientists indicate that the loss of collagen in skin causes skin to deteriorate, lose moisture, and become wrinkled. Collagen, with its high water affinity, is an essential nutrient for the skin to stay moisturized and unwrinkled. Imagine an air balloon. When the balloon is just supplied with helium - this represents when we were still teenagers - the rubber latex is stretched and has a smooth texture. Next morning you wake up and realize the balloon lost its helium, which caused it to sink down and shrivel, no longer smooth and stretched. The same exact phenomenon occurs as we jog our twenties and thirties - even worse in the fourties - collagen escapes facial skin cells, skin holds weak water affinity, and our skin becomes dry and wrinkled. It's more than extremely important to provide our skin with plenty of collagen to decelerate aging.

One of the most effective skin care products is the exaCollagen series.



With their high saturation of collagen, exaCollagen lotion, essence, and cream will help your skin to be plenished with moisture and wrinkle-less facial skin!
