Beauty - Free Face Exercises



The free face exercises are further down the page - but while you're waiting for the results to kick in I've highlighted 2 great, NON EXPENSIVE, products that really do produce great results.

Mineral make-up, Bare Minerals or Escentuals, is the must have anti-ageing fix in minutes.  It is the
make up choice of beauty professionals - great feature on This Morning where both Phil and Fern revealed
that their make up artists use it.
Secondly Eyesentials - I'm just in the process of ordering this as I've heard and read great things
about this quick fix eye fix - it 'melts' away those tell tale wrinkles in seconds. 

EYESENTIAL - INSTANT EYE LIFT


Eyesential - Eye - LiftEyesential an instant eye lift with incredible results.
The lotion forms a ' gentle tightening' invisible veil over the wrinkles, can be used on other areas of the face, and produces immediate results.  The effect lasts for up to 8 hours and is easily removed and there Eyesential - Before and After
HOW TO APPLY EYESENTIAL
using your middle finger apply a tiny amount working from the inner area of your eye area outwards. Using too much Eyesential lotion produces a flaky white effect - not good!
When the lotion has dried apply your make up over the top.
NB - some of the more fluid fountations may slide over the treated area - powder based foundations are recommended for use with Eyesential - Bare Minerals is perfect (see below)

BARE MINERALS - GREAT MAKE UP FOR YOUNGER LOOKING SKIN



personal recommendation  from Elaine - M.D. - Todays Woman

BARE MINERALS -I absolutley love it and wouldn't dream of using any other make-up.

  • It's so easy to apply and literally covers any imperfections, age spots etc
  • It doesn't get greasy - I still have very oily skin, but this make up is so wearable, I keep it on all day
  • it doesn't disappear or 'slide' off my face.
  • the little pots last for ages
  • easy to get an exact skin match or a 'healthy' glow by mixing together

I noticed sister-in-law was looking so well, her skin seemed to be much smoother and ageing a heck of a lot better than mine - we're both this side of 50 and, hands up, I'm the more vain - and always have been.
and that is how I was introducted to
BARE MINERALS - Pure Mineral Make Up
foundation, blushes, eye shadow all made from 100% crushed minerals.

Millions of women swear by i.d. bareMinerals—the makeup that covers imperfections as it performs like a skincare treatment. Made with crushed minerals from the earth, bareMinerals are 100 percent pure (read: they won't clog your pores or irritate your skin). Women with sunspots, acne, rosacea, and excessively dry, oily, or sensitive complexions claim i.d. bareMinerals improves the overall health and appearance of their skin. To boot, the silky formulas also contain natural sunscreens that protect your skin—so much so that i.d. bareMinerals Foundation - SPF 15 Sunscreen is actually recommended by the Skin Cancer Foundation.

I really cannot recommend Bare Minerals highly enough.

I have been using this mineral makeup now for over a year
  I suffered regularly from spots and blemishes - now, it is very very rare I have an outbreak and when I'm wearing the make up I, truly, look so much younger and fresher, the compliments I'm getting are proof of this PLUS this mineral make up is so easy and light to wear - but still gives great coverage.


FREE FACE EXERCISES

There are 44 muscles in the face and toning these muscles gives the face a brighter appearance, a natural lift , smoother skin,
and results in a younger look.

Use these face exercises to tighten up your skin and get it glowing - exercises the chin area to reduce those sagging jowels and 'turkey' neck.

The hardest part of these face exercises is keeping them up - try to get into a routine and do them every morning or every evening or when watching the tele or doing the ironing -
  with only 5-10 minutes of daily face exercises you should see results and that sagging face should slowly disappear.
