As we get older, our bones and joints can get achy and unfortunately, even break! I never thought I’d be reviewing FlexNow Joint Formula at this stage of the game, but several weeks ago I fell down (don’t ask…lol) and severely broke my ankle. I have been battling the discomfort ever since.

I decided to give FlexNow Joint Formula a try due to the fact that they are so confident that you will get relief that they offer a money back guarantee. “Complete Relief…or Complete Refund”…that got my attention.

FlexNow Joint Formula is patented, all natural and clinically proven to impact all four areas required to realize healthy joint function:

  • Reduces inflammation by 9 times
  • Improves cartilage retention by 44%
  • Increases bone retention by 10%
  • Alleviates pain by 45%

I started taking FlexNow Joint Formula two weeks ago, with little hope that it would really make a difference, but this is a fabulous product. It’s restoring ankle movement and I can almost feel my ankle healing. I woke up one morning and realized that I wasn’t in as much pain.

(Please keep in mind that I can make no medical claims. I’m speaking from personal totally biased experience. Check with your doctor before trying this or any product.)

The only ingredient in FlexNow Joint Formula is SheaFlex75 (shea triterpenes) the incredible shea nut, a powerful inflammation fighter. It is unique in the botanical world for inflammation reduction and contributing to the significant reduction in both joint and cartilage deterioration.

When crushed and processed, the nuts of the shea tree (actually shea nuts are not nuts at all, but the pit of a fruit) yield vegetable fats known as shea oil and shea butter.

Having been a popular ingredient in foods and cosmetics for a long time, research has now revealed the shea nut unexpected bonus: a powerful inflammation fighter.

I definitely will not be taking them up on the refund!

Order a one month’s supply at www.flexnow.us for $39.96 and receive free shipping.

You’ll also find FlexNow Joint Formula in your local health food store.

Oh …and …uh….be careful on wood decks…while watering your plants in the rain after dark!

Pure Romance Daily Facial Care Set http://www.splendicity.com/agingfabulous/pure-romance-daily-facial-care-set/ http://www.splendicity.com/agingfabulous/pure-romance-daily-facial-care-set/#comments Sat, 14 Nov 2009 21:23:10 +0000 Lucie Larancuent-Domenech http://www.splendicity.com/agingfabulous/?p=6091 Post from: Aging Fabulous

Pure Romance is the leading in-home direct sales company specializing in relationship enhancement products.

The company has now launched a high-end spa product line built around advanced body and skin renewal called Pure Romance Facial Care Line. The Pure Romance Facial Care Line includes the following products:

  1. pH Balancing Face Wash: This is used by pouring a dime-sized amount into your hands, rubbing together to create a lather and massaging gently, using circular motions around face and neck. Use morning and night.
  2. Refreshing Facial Exfoliator: Wet face with warm water and apply a dime-sized amount onto fingertips. Massage very gently, using circular motions, around face and neck. Do not rub or use firm pressure and be sure to avoid the eye area. Use 2-3 times per week.
  3. Toning Skin Spritzer: Revitalize your skin by lightly misting with Toning Skin Spritzer after cleansing morning and night. I like to use it throughout the day to refresh and tone my skin. I also use it when traveling, and when my skin feels really dehydrated. Another secret that I found Pure Romance Toning Skin Spritzer, is misting over my finished makeup. I find that it really sets the color and leaves my skin looking dewy and soft.
  4. Hydrating Vitamin C Serum: After cleansing, apply a dime-sized amount while skin is still moist. Use upward strokes to lightly massage into the skin until it is completely absorbed. Use morning and night.

Pure Romance Facial Care Line is especially formulated for the adult woman. Reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, your adult skin becomes fresh and youthful.

  • Entire set $85.00
  • pH Balance Face Wash (8fl. oz) $25.00
  • Refreshing Facial (8 fl. oz) $25.00
  • Toning Skin Spritzer (2 fl. oz) $14.00

Get Longer, Thicker Lashes With LATISSE http://www.splendicity.com/agingfabulous/get-longer-thicker-lashes-with-latisse/ http://www.splendicity.com/agingfabulous/get-longer-thicker-lashes-with-latisse/#comments Thu, 12 Nov 2009 00:23:52 +0000 Lucie Larancuent-Domenech http://www.splendicity.com/agingfabulous/?p=6088 Post from: Aging Fabulous

As you get older, your lashes aren’t as long and lush as they used to be. That’s why many women are turning to products to help grow eyelashes, making them longer, thicker and darker.

Many beauty experts, celebrities and other women around the country believe in LATISSE, a prescription treatment especially for hypotrichosis (another name for having inadequate or not enough eyelashes).

Image: LATISSE

Image: LATISSE

This product is available only by prescription and any doctor can prescribe it. From LATISSE…

In most US states, consumers can purchase LATISSE from their prescribing doctor. In a few states, laws prohibit doctors from dispensing prescription products so you will have to fill your prescription at the pharmacy.

This eyelash solution has a suggested retail price of $120. Visit LATISSE.com to find out more information.

Particularly around the holidays, the glamour look is in — long, thick dark lashes and true red lips. If you are considering false eyelashes, LATISSE may be another alternative. Here is what a few celebrities have to say about the product.

Actress Brooke Shields – “I used to dye my lashes, and I’ve also spent so much time on Broadway putting on fake ones then ripping them off-I’ve actually had holes in my lash line from the damage that does. So I was even more grateful that LATISSE was able to make them darker and fuller.”

Actress Angie Harmon – “It’s all about lashes, the eyes are the window to the soul, so I’m super excited about [LATISSE]. All I want is more lashes!”

Beauty expert Anastasia Soare – “I’ve learned a new trick to making heads turn! My eyes ‘pop’ with longer, thicker and darker lashes with LATISSE. It’s a great option for me that delivers results.”

To keep your skin healthy and looking its best, you need to customize your skin care routine for your skin type. Sonia Badreshia-Bansal, MD, FAAD, a dermatologist in Danville, Calif., provides these basic skin care tips and suggestions.

“No matter what your skin type, using daily moisturizer and practicing year-round sun protection are vital to maintaining healthy, glowing skin,” said Dr. Badreshia-Bansal.

Image: istockphoto

“That’s because with adequate hydration and use of a broad-spectrum sunscreen, the skin has the advantage of protecting itself from free radicals and harmful ultraviolet radiation that cause skin damage, discoloration, premature wrinkles and even skin cancer. Over time, a careful and consistent skin care routine with products designed for specific skin types can gradually improve the overall health and appearance of the skin.”

Combination Skin

For combination skin, Dr. Badreshia-Bansal recommends using a mild cleanser that minimizes sebum removal. In addition, a medium-weight lotion with broad-spectrum sunscreen containing many different sunscreen ingredients is beneficial.

Dry Skin

For dry skin, Dr. Badreshia-Bansal recommends washing the face twice a day with a gentle cleanser or creamy wash with mild detergent. She suggests applying a moisturizer with sunscreen once a day right after cleansing while the skin is still damp, as this can help seal in moisture.

Oily/Acne Prone Skin

Some people with oily or acne-prone skin need to wash their face as much as two to three times a day. However, over-washing the skin also can lead to increased oil production, so a balance must be achieved based on an individual’s skin care needs. In general, using an oil-free, non-comedogenic foaming cleanser that contains salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide is imperative to prevent breakouts.

Sensitive Skin

For sensitive skin, washing the face once a day should be enough to keep the skin clean. Dr. Badreshia-Bansal noted that exfoliation is not necessary and can worsen already sensitive skin. In the morning, Dr. Badreshia-Bansal suggested applying a cream-based moisturizer to dry skin to help prevent or reduce irritation.

For more information on improving the appearance of your skin, go to the “AgingSkinNet” section of www.skincarephysicians.com. This website was created by dermatologists to provide up-to-date information on the treatment and management of disorders of the skin, hair and nails.

Relastin Eye Silk http://www.splendicity.com/agingfabulous/relastin-eye-silk/ http://www.splendicity.com/agingfabulous/relastin-eye-silk/#comments Wed, 04 Nov 2009 04:16:10 +0000 Lucie Larancuent-Domenech http://www.splendicity.com/agingfabulous/?p=6067 Post from: Aging Fabulous

We all remember how firm and elastic our skin was when we were younger. Now, you wake up and feel like your skin has lost all of its elasticity and that it just hangs there – not a pleasant feeling! However, there is a new product that can put the “spring” back into the skin around your eyes, and that product is Relastin Eye Silk.

Image: Relastin

Image: Relastin

Relastin offers clinically-proven help in combating sagging skin around the eyes by increasing the elastin content in your skin and improving elasticity around your eyes. Elastin is the protein in your skin that gives it firmness, tone, and elasticity. However, your body mostly produces elastin in your childhood, which means that our skin loses these qualities as the years pass.

By the time we hit our teens, these proteins have all but broken down and our skin shows the signs of aging. Relastin Eye Silk uses a Zinc Firming Complex that works on the cellular level to help your body produce more functional elastin in the skin. A study has shown that Relastin Eye Silk has the ability to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

The amount of clinical research done on Relastin Eye Silk makes me feel confident that anyone can get great results using this product! This cream really lives up to its name, as it feels silky and it is an absolute pleasure to apply. The results are what make this product worth it, though, as I have only used it a short time but I have noticed a lot of improvement.

Relastin Eye Silk retails for $69.00. For more information on this product, you can visit relastin.com. If you are tired of sagging, wrinkled skin around your eyes, try out Relastin Eye Silk for some real, clinically proven results!

PHYTO Paris Phytodensium Anti-Aging Serum http://www.splendicity.com/agingfabulous/phyto-paris-phytodensium-anti-aging-serum/ http://www.splendicity.com/agingfabulous/phyto-paris-phytodensium-anti-aging-serum/#comments Tue, 03 Nov 2009 03:34:26 +0000 Lucie Larancuent-Domenech http://www.splendicity.com/agingfabulous/?p=6063 Post from: Aging Fabulous

Oftentimes we talk about skincare products here at Aging Fabulous, but another place that your age can show is in your hair! Beautiful shiny hair is the result of a healthy scalp. The scalp absorbs all the necessary elements for Keratin production from the body’s microcirculatory system: amino acids, vitamins and sulfur derivatives. Leading to healthy, strong hair, Keratin is the primary protein in the hair shaft. Unfortunately, Keratin production decreases due to internal and external daily stresses, leaving hair dull and lifeless.

Image: Phyto

Image: Phyto

It is very important to strengthen the scalp in order to maintain the hair’s natural balance and vitality. Beginning at age 30, hair often becomes weaker and more fragile. Over time hair becomes more porous, less resistant and weak. Lacking in density and elasticity, weakened hair becomes dry and thin.

Using PHYTO Paris Phytodensium Anti-Aging Serum for Lifeless Hair replaces lost elements, helping to re-strengthen and protect your hair and scalp’s natural defenses leading to increased suppleness and shine.

Gataline age-defense derived from a carefully selected walnut extract, with anti-free radical properties, prevents hair damaged caused by the aging process and protects the hair from harmful environmental factors.

Blackcurrant seed oil, rich in omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids, regenerates the hair. Birch and horsetail leaf extracts restore minerals to the hair fiber. A botanical protein complex increases the hair’s level of resistance and elasticity by forming a protective film over the surface. A tyrosine derivative helps boost the level of melanin and inhibits the appearance of gray hair.

Apply PHYTO Paris Phytodensium Anti-Aging Serum to clean towel-dried hair. Massage into the scalp and hair. Do not rinse and style hair as usual.

Start PHYTO Paris Phytodensium Anti-Aging Serum for Lifeless Hair before the holiday season is on full fledge and give yourself the gift that tops every girl’s wish list….the gift of beautiful hair!

Get more information and find a Phyto Salon near you by visiting phyto.com.

This serum is made in France and is reasonably priced in the USA since you pay $32.00 for 1.7 fl. oz., which should last you several months.

Bonne chance!

DermaVio Anti Aging Skin Solution http://www.splendicity.com/agingfabulous/dermavio-anti-aging-skin-solution/ http://www.splendicity.com/agingfabulous/dermavio-anti-aging-skin-solution/#comments Sat, 31 Oct 2009 06:46:36 +0000 Lucie Larancuent-Domenech http://www.splendicity.com/agingfabulous/?p=6048 Post from: Aging Fabulous

Nobody really knows how to stop the aging process, but plenty of people have found solutions that might at least slow it down. Ageless Research Labs has released two products, a topical serum and a capsule supplement, that it calls the DermaVio Solution, and I really think they are on to something!

Image: DermaVio

Image: DermaVio

The brains at Ageless Research Labs think that the true villains behind the aging process are the tons of free radicals that assault your skin throughout the day. According to the people behind the product, free radicals aren’t free because they cost your skin its youth! For that reason, Ageless Research Labs has created a serum and capsule supplement that should help you to avoid these dreaded free radicals.

DermaVio anti-aging capsules hit the scene in 2006 and received great feedback from customers that experienced wonderful results with the product, their skin growing more youthful and radiant. Ageless Research Labs did more research, discovered the most important part of the capsules, and turned it into a skin cream and the rest is history.

The DermaVio Solution is clinically proven to prevent the signs of aging by reducing wrinkles, hydrating the skin, forming collagen, reducing fine lines, and, of course, protecting from free radicals. The secret ingredient, though, is the L-Hydroxyproline, which is the part that sets the DermaVio Solution apart from the other products on the market.

With the economy how it is, DermaVio is a great and affordable way to get intensive skin treatment without having to get any kind of cosmetic surgery! DermaVio shows results on the first application and I was very impressed!

You can find the product online at DermaVio.com. Right now, they have a 2-month supply of the serum and capsules for $89.00 plus free shipping. DermaVio is also available at americarx.com and other retailers. The DermaVio Solution is not the cheapest product on the market, but you can be sure to see results!
