Newsletter Highlights Vol.2 Issue 35 8-30-22

Hello!

First of all, I would like to welcome all of my new subscribers and appreciate those subscribers that have been here from the very beginning.

Happy Tuesday!

How was your weekend?

Today we are officially 1 day away from starting school once again for this year. The weather is still crazy warm still for this time of year, but it is starting to cool down. Like I mentioned before I said that I would share what I did for my special day. It was a feast of Mediterranean cuisine take out, cheesecake, Greek salad, gyros…. you get the picture. I wanted to do something different this year for my birthday instead of my family always cooking my favorites(not that I am complaining ;-).

I love Mediterranean cuisine and it has been a minute since I had this delectable smorgasbord of food. It was delicious and worth every penny. We still have leftovers, so I won’t have to cook for at least a few days (so I get a bit of a break from cooking, Yay!! Moms need a break every once in a while, right?

Welcome to another issue of Beauty Shop N More news. I hope that you enjoy all that I offer in my newsletter and keep coming back for more.

How did you take care of you this weekend?

The world has been crazy these days, so it is important to take a moment to keep yourself emotionally, mentally and physically strong. I hope that this newsletter inspires you to be your best self and encourages you to take each day one at a time. Until next time take care of yourself.

“FEED” Your Antioxidants with a Glowing Complexion

Although there is no conclusive proof that antioxidants keep skin from aging, experts do agree they have the ability to ‘capture’ free radicals and may protect us from certain diseases. Antioxidant-rich foods can also give us a healthier, glowing complexion.

According to Susan M. Kleiner, R.D., Ph.D., a Seattle-based nutritionist, eating foods rich in antioxidants is best. “There’s no substitute for getting nutrients through food. The body absorbs and assimilates them far better than in supplement form.”

Kleiner suggests following the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Guide Pyramid and eating three to five servings of vegetables and two to four servings of fruit each day. Choose at least one citrus fruit, such as an orange, a tangerine, or a grapefruit, for vitamin C. To increase beta-carotene intake, eat at least two orange-yellow or leafy green vegetables each day.

Eat Right for Younger Looking Skin

Eating healthy equals’ younger looking skin. Drinking a cup of orange juice and eating one raw carrot provides twice the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) of vitamin C and beta-carotene. The RDA for vitamin E is harder to meet, especially for those on a low-fat diet.

“Don’t be afraid to add a couple of tablespoons of olive oil to your diet, or to eat some nuts or seeds,” advises Dr. Kleiner.

The following guideline can be used for RDAs for three of the most common antioxidant nutrients, vitamin C, vitamin E, and beta-carotene; good sources and how best to maximize benefits of each are included.

Vitamin C: RDA at least 60 mg. (1/2 cup orange juice = 70 mg.) Citrus fruits and juices and tomatoes are good sources of vitamin C. Eat whole fruit for extra fiber. Avoid juice in glass containers, and heat-pasteurized juice. Light and heat destroy some of the vitamin C.

Vitamin E: RDA 8 mg for women / 10 mg. for men (1 tablespoon of canola oil = 9 mg.) Good sources include nuts, seeds and their oils, fatty fish such as salmon, mackerel, halibut, and trout, and wheat germ. Use canola, olive, or another vegetable oil in place of butter or margarine when cooking.

Beta-carotene: no established RDA. Expert Dr. Kleiner, however, recommends 5-6 mg. (One carrot = 12 mg.) Orange and yellow vegetables, and leafy green vegetables, including broccoli, are all good sources. Instead of potato chips or popcorn for an evening snack while watching television, opt for prepackaged, washed and peeled baby carrots.

If you feel you are unable to meet the RDAs through diet alone, by all means take an all-in-one antioxidant vitamin supplement a day but continue to pay attention to rich food sources.

Summary

Because many over-the-counter cosmetics containing antioxidants don’t have enough to be totally affective by themselves, it is best to ‘feed’ them to your skin in combination with a healthy, antioxidant rich diet for younger looking skin.

With proper skin care, a healthy diet, regular exercise, adequate sleep, and ample amounts of water, you can enjoy a more fit body, improved quality of life, increased stamina, and a glowing complexion!

Specially formulated for intimate skin, Whispers for Women Feminine Spray is the quick and easy way to feel fresh and ready to take on the day! The soothing aloe and witch hazel extracts in this spray for the external vulva area rapidly calm irritation and give you that cool, fresh feeling – but Whispers for Women Feminine Spray does it with all-natural ingredients, so your intimate areas are cared for safely.

Refreshing after a jog and wonderful for postpartum soreness, this safe and effective freshener relieves discomfort from vaginal dryness and helps with chafing and irritation after shaving (or when your fancy underwear proves to look better than it feels). Take it with you to your waxing appointment for quicker recovery, too! Tuck it in your purse when you’re on the move for several hours, or use it to freshen up before you head to the baggage claim after a plane trip.

Since it also works as a quick, cooling deodorant for the underarm (or that spot where the underwire hits under your breasts – you know the one!), Whispers for Women Feminine Spray is a smart way to travel lighter. It can be used to freshen panties, liners, and pads, as the natural aromas of its rose and lavender ingredients are light, sweet, and clean. And if you find yourself lacking in confidence during your period, combat Aunt Flo with a quick spray after your bath.

Among the ingredients in all-natural Whispers for Women Feminine Spray are these emollients and soothers:

* ALOE VERA, to protect and moisturize membranes while calming inflamed skin
* ROSE WATER, a traditional ingredient with very mild antibacterial properties and a skin-soothing effect
* WITCH HAZEL, to temporarily relieve surface discomfort
* LAVENDER WATER, to relax the skin and naturally protect irritated areas

The safe and effective spray is packaged in a convenient bottle that can stay on your vanity or tuck in your purse, overnight bag, or lingerie drawer. Just apply a light spray as needed to freshen and soothe! Choose our Feminine Salve and Feminine Wash to go with your salve, and make an intimate self-care set that helps support your body’s natural healing and cleansing processes

It’s for external use only, so never use it inside your vaginal canal – you’ll find that a spritz of Whispers for Women Feminine Spray to the outside vulva area is plenty to give you a boost of confidence and a natural sense of cleanliness and well-being.

Ingredients:
Aloe Vera, Rose Hydrosol, Witch Hazel, Lavender Hydrosol and Leuconostoc/Radish Root Ferment
