This week I wanted to focus on 'non product' related skincare. Its all too easy to run into the department store and fling hundreds of euros at a counter to try to improve skin problems only to come out and find that it really hasn't made things any better for you. While there is no doubt that there are some very effective products out there, we really can do a lot to improve our skin by starting on the inside rather than the outside.
As well as recommending products and skin care regimes I will also cover area's such as diet, exercise and general wellbeing because I can definitely testify as to the changes they can make on your face! As with the products I recommend, these are things that work for me or for my clients so they might work for you too!
This week I'm talking yoga and one person specifically, Mandy Ingber. Now I have to be honest and say that I entirely only bought her DVD because of the Jennifer Anniston connection! I have tried yoga lots of times, from regular to the gruelling hot yoga but it never was something I really enjoyed - until I started this DVD.
Yoga is one of the best exercises you can do for your skin, it gets the blood flowing and increases oxygenation to the head through downward bends which means your skin will glow afterwards as if you have just had a facial. Mandy's version of yoga is a mix of the traditional yoga stretches and more conventional toning so you have the added benefit of seeing great results in your body as well as your face.
Her delivery is fun and personable, you can really relate to her and she really works on the mind connection too so without realising it, you've completed a meditation practise too!
Finally she also has a book called the 28 Days to the Ultimate Mind Body makeover which I put on my Christmas list this year and can't wait to start!
