What is Natural Beauty? How would you define natural beauty? Some define it by genetics, the mixture of genes that our parents pass on that make us who we are, what we look like. Others would define it as looking great without enhancement. Well, whatever your definition, there are things we all can do to be NATURAL BEAUTIES!
Our physical well being as well as our outward appearance are affected by what we put inside. Our diet should include adequate quantities of protein, vitamins and minerals essential to health and beauty. And don't forget that stuff that most of us (including me) don't like, "Water" which helps to hydrate and cleanse toxins from the body.
Ideally we would want to get the necessary vitamins and minerals from the foods that we eat, but with living busy lives and the tendency to eat fast foods, most of us don't get enough of what we need to feed our bodies and minds so that we may exude natural beauty. What is the solution? Should we consider supplements? There are varying opinions as to the exact number of vitamins and minerals that are needed for you to be healthy. Recommended daily allowances of all vitamins and minerals as suggested by various health experts and agencies include 13 Vitamins: Biotin, Folate, Vitamin A, Vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12, Vitamin C, D, E and K. There are 17 Minerals that are recommended: Boron, Calcium, Chlorine (in chloride form), Copper, Fluorine, Iodine, Iron, Magnesium, Manganese, Molybdenum, Nickel, Phosphorus, Potassium, Selenium, Sodium, Vanadium and Zinc.
Is this all it takes? What about the host of Herbs and other Minerals that can be taken to stimulate good health? Could we use a little more help? I as well as many others have found that the nutritionals offered by Youngevity founded by Dr. Joel Wallach to be PHENOMONAL when it comes to variety and quality. I encourage you to check out his multitude of nutritional supplements and consider purchasing one of the Mighty 90 Paks. If you are like me and don’t like taking a lot of pills, or have trouble swallowing pills, this may be an answer to your prayers. A Mighty 90 Pak is a basic nutrition “starter pak” which contains all of the core nutrients needed by any and everyone! There are various products that come in liquid form which makes swallowing easier - and the taste isn’t bad either. The combination of the products in each pak provide a powerful base for sustained health, and wellness, and each can be further supported with additional Youngevity products.
Have special issues that you need assistance with? Youngevity’s got you covered. Want to start with a great cleanse and don’t mind fasting? Try the 5 Day Cleansing Program. Don’t want to fast? Consider the Cleansing Herbs. Looking to support healthy bones and joints? I recommend Osteo-Fx (tastes like a Pina Colada sans the alcohol). Support your Cardiovascular Health by trying Ultimate EFA. Help maintain healthy blood sugar levels with Sweet Eze. I could go on and on. Need help with suggestions? Feel free to contact me.

To Beginnings!
Welcome to Health & Wealth Awareness!
Health and wellness has always been important to me and I have been connected to the heath and beauty fields either personally or professionally for over 18 years. I find that my passion for taking care of myself and others only increases with time as I see that the tips that I have gleaned through my pursuits help and empower others. It is this passion and the urging of those that I consider good friends and great leaders that encouraged me to create this blog.
I hope you will enjoy and be able to use the tips that I will post periodically to help you take better care of yourself and your family. Topics as I’m sure you can guess from the title will be tips and information on health, wellness and beauty. The wealth part comes from two angles. One can definitely consider him or herself “Wealthy” if you and yours are in good “Health” and secondly, a tip or two on how to “recession proof” your income never hurts.
So, to start things off, lets discuss:
4 BASIC SKIN CARE NEEDS
How is your skin care regimen working for you? Not really sure? Don’t have one? TIP: For Really Great Skin - Just Keep it Soulfully Simple!
CLEANSE
EXFOLIATE
TONE
MOISTURIZE
Most people choose skin care products depending on:
Skin Type
Age
Any skin problems
Skin Allergies
Cleansing: Should be effective without irritating the skin so it is important to choose the most appropriate product. Avoid bar soaps -they tend to dry the skin out. Facial cleansers should remove oils and other fatty secretions from the skin.
Exfoliating: The one step most people do not do. Exfoliating removes the top layer of dead skin cells which dull the complexion. Once a week will keep your skin smooth and you will be able to maintain a healthy, natural glow year round.
Toning: Toners are used after cleansing to ensure complete removal of any remaining traces of oil, makeup, dirt and cleansing preparations.
Moisturizing: If the skin is to remain smooth and supple, it needs to maintain an adequate moisture level. Therefore, EVERYONE, no matter the skin type, (even oily skin) should moisturize.
Another Tip Ladies and Gentlemen, Don’t Forget Your Sunscreen! The number 1 cause of wrinkles is sun damage even in the winter or on cloudy days.
With all of that said, just how can you keep this process simple?
