La Bella Donna Ultimate Pure Perfection Liquid Foundation

 

Caring for your skin with products that nourish and feed your skin with the moisture it needs can make a visible difference.   Many of our clients complain that they get dry and “cakey” when wearing mineral makeup.  I am here to say I've "tried them all" and stand 100% behind La Bella Donna for it's weightless and dewy feel on the skin.  In particular, I LOVE the way La Bella has formulated their new liquid concealer.   Purchase wisely Informed Beauty, its confusing out there…it will benefit you in the long run.

Face Mapping to "Spot the Problem" and it's Link to your Internal Health

Site-Skin-Health-Diagram.jpg

  In Chinese medicine it’s believed that each part of the face acts as a window to another internal area of the body.  The external makeup of our face is a key indication of how well one's specific internal organs are functioning.

At Kasia Organic Salon and Spa, we have a full wall covering of the Chinese Face Mapping Model.  Our skin specialist testifies that the methodology rings true time and time again, especially when it comes to pinpointing the causes of spots and our guests internal complexities.

Many of our blemish-prone guests tend to have a specific area where they break out more often.

DIY Your Diagnosis:  Follow this FACE MAP to help you understand the underlying reason for your own skin patterns.

skin speaks lg

1.    Forehead

Spots on the forehead tend to indicate a stressed bladder or digestive system.

To help ease this, try increasing your intake or water, green tea and fibre-rich foods that help dispel toxins and excess waste.

Contact spots are also common in this area where grease from the hair can creep onto the face, so try and keep your hair up and out of the way.

2.    Between Brows

Spots between the eyebrows are thought to be linked to the liver and are often the result of over-indulging in rich foods and alcohol.

Cut back on processed foods high in refined sugar, salt and animal fats and try and cook more fresh meals.

Reduce your alcohol intake too – it’s a diuretic which not only causes dehydration but also depletes vital skin nutrients, giving your skin a ‘grey’ hue the following day.

3.    Cheeks

Spots on the cheeks can be some of the most painful on the face and are difficult to treat.

Typically, the cheeks and nose are related to the lungs, so you may be prone to spots here if you regularly suffer with colds or chest infections.

4.    Chin & Jawline

Spots on the chin and jawline are very often hormonal.

As a woman, they may appear here at the same time every month or they may be linked to a new medication or contraception, illness or pregnancy.

It is difficult to treat hormonal spots with topical products – it’s better to take a look at anything biological that may have changed and try and restore that balance.

What do you think? Do your facial patters relate to your general health?

Kasia Honey-Dip Sunless Bronzer & Moisturizer

 

 

Spring break and early spring vacations are  right around the corner  and I hopefully many of you will be heading to the beach.  Kasia brings you a natural, safe, affordable, and quick way to get a bronzed!     Most importantly, our sunless tanning lotion is a great alternative to actual tanning, which can cause harmful and sometimes permanent damage to the skin.

 

Radiation from the sun and artificial sources, including lamps in tanning salons, increases the risks of developing skin cancer, according to the National Cancer Institute (NCI). Women who use tanning beds more than once a month become 55 percent more likely to develop malignant melanoma.   The UVA tanning bed  is up to three times more intense than UVA in natural sunlight.

No Oopma Loompa Effect!

We've all heard of the self tanning nightmare between Sprays, mists, and bronzing pads,  I've tried quite a few different types before mastering our beloved Honey Dip formulation.

 

 Kasia Honey-Dip Sunless Bronzer provides a perfect sun-kissed glow. A healthy alternative to typical self-tanners, Honey-Dip is chemical-free and formulated with organic ingredients, pure botanicals and naturally derived DHA (Dihydroxyacetone).

This bronzing beaute' is one of Kasia's BEST SELLERS.  It has been hosted on the popular Beauty Bets Blog as the finest all-natural tanner on the market.

 

No Streaks, No Stink:

A luxurious blend of Aloe Vera gel, antioxidants and hydrating oils and butters, the light consistency absorbs quickly with no streaking. Plus, it smells AMAZING—no self-tanner stink, just a fresh coconut aroma.

Kassandra’s tip:   Always start with exfoliation! Use Kasia’s Natural Body Polish before applying Kasia Honey-Dip Sunless Self bronzer, and pay close attention to the feet, knees and elbows (which darken more than the rest of the body). Use Honey-Dip daily for two days, and then every two or three days, depending on your desired glow.

Perfume Causes Harm to the Thyroid, Reproductive Toxicity, Allergies, and more....

Perfume ingredients may smell great to some people, but may be giving headaches to anyone sensitive to the fumes around them.  A  2010 study suggests popular brands reek of long-term health problems for all of us.

Researchers have found that labels of popular perfumes don't list harmful perfume ingredients linked to sperm damage, hormone disruption (which is linked to some cancers, thyroid disease, obesity, diabetes, and other serious health problems), reproductive toxicity, and allergy problems.

I am a sensory gal myself -so formulating "Grounded" Pure Essense was PURE JOY.  Who would have thought you can have therapeutic benefits while scenting for your day!

Thyroid + Skin + Perfume

Most women apply their perfumes around the neck area where the thyroid is.  The skin then sends components of the perfume to all sensors in the brain and lungs.

Thyroid  and Perfume

Another recent study found several chemicals in the top selling perfumes that can cause damage to the thyroid gland.

The thyroid regulates several important metabolic processes in the body. Thyroid disorders can cause obesity, problems losing or maintaining a healthy weight, serious hair loss, mood disorders perfumeand feelings of lethargy.

Chemicals that interfere with healthy thyroid activity may also promote cancer of this important gland. Since it is the largest of the endocrine glands, it has some very important processes to control and therefore, it is utterly important that we keep this gland healthy and in top operating condition.

The thyroid is responsible for controlling how fast our body goes through our energy stores. It also plays an important role in producing much-needed proteins and controls how sensitive our bodies are to the plethora of other hormones that are present at any given time.

Many of the chemicals in perfumes present a dual problem for the thyroid in that they can add more synthetic hormones (in the form of synthetic and harmful estrogens) to our system. In addition, they often can cause damage to the very gland that helps control our sensitivity to these excessive hormones which only compounds the problem.

Informed Beauty Tip - "What to do!"

Fortunately, if you read labels, you can easily avoid synthetic fragrances. Follow these tips, and choose brands that employ natural methods for creating scent in their products. By the way, Kasia Natural Skin Care is FREE of synthetic fragrances—only natural scents from pure essential oils.

  • Look at the labels. Personal-care products must list ingredients on the label, although there is a trade secrets loophole for fragrance blends. Manufacturers can use the blanket term of "fragrance" or "parfum" on the label, but thousands of different chemicals—many petrochemical and volatile organic compounds—can hide under that description. Your best bet is to avoid any personal-care product listing these ingredients: fragrance, perfume, parfum, linalool, and limonene.
  • Shop at whole foods/co-op stores, natural boutiques on the internet for brands that are more conscious about the fragrances they’re using.
  • Look for scents that are naturally derived or plant-based
  • Certified Organic products do not have synthetic fragrances
  • Customize your own blends of pure essential oils and carrier oils.
