Mornings can be a hectic time of the day in many households leaving little time to enjoy a heart healthy breakfast on-the-go, let alone a sit down meal with loved ones. My alarm didn't go off, hit snooze too many times, got distracted, had to get the kids ready, running late to a meeting......ALL popular EXCUSES we use on a daily breakfast to justify eating an unhealthy high calorie breakfast or no breakfast at all. Plus, sometime eating healthy can can seem a bit plain & redundant. I challenge you to get creative with traditional healthy breakfast options & ingredients, you will be pleasantly surprise with what you can whip up that is not only healthy for you & your loved ones, but quick & easy to make even when your time is limited!

6 Tips for Spectacular Skin

Picture
Amp up the antioxidants.
Topical antioxidants supplement sunscreen and provide additional protection against skin damage. Look for products with vitamin C and powerful botanical ingredients such as pomegranate, acai and grape seed.

Picture
Outsmart the enemy.
When it comes to the signs of premature aging, the sun’s rays are the main culprits. Protect yourself with mineral-based sunscreen with a minimum of 15 SPF for daily use and a higher SPF when you plan to be in the sun.

Picture
Exercise moderation.
Exfoliation is like exercise for the skin. For best results, avoid highly abrasive physical exfoliants and look for ingredients such as fruit enzymes, alpha hydroxy acid or lactic acid.

Picture
Be diligent.
You may be tempted to skip your cleansing routine when you’re feeling sleepy, but night time is the most important time to wash away makeup and environmental pollutants.

Picture
Mix it up.
You feed your body a variety of different foods; nourish your skin the same way! In the evening, consider alternating vitamin A serum with a hydrating serum or a nutrient-rich peptide cream.

Picture
Treat yourself.
A facial is more than just a luxury—it exfoliates deeply, removes impurities and stimulates a healthy glow. Can’t make it to the spa? Create your own Raw Honey Face Mask. (link to recipe) Or ask a team member to help you select the best at-home mask for your skin type.
