Skin Care

As the seasons change so does your skin. Depending on the time of year, your skin is going to need a different skin care routine. In the Summer, skin needs protection from harmful UV rays and a good cleanser to keep your pores clean from the excess oils your skin produces. By the time Fall and Winter roll around your skin needs to recuperate from the hot summer and prepare for the harsh winter.

In the summer when the days are longer, and the sun is brighter, most people start thinking about their upcoming vacations—but few are thinking about how to protect their skin. In fact, only 34 percent of adults reported applying sunscreen with SPF 15 or higher, even though one-third of adults reported having a sunburn within the past year.

However, all hair is different. Each one needs its own specific brand of TLC. Here are some simple ways to care for your locks, no matter what type of hair you have.

Straight Hair

Nu Skin Research and Development conducts multiple studies and makes them available to its sales leaders and customers. Sometimes the information related to these studies can be confusing and difficult to decipher. Let’s look at the ageLOC LumiSpa System 12 Week Clinical Efficacy Study and break down what it is saying.

To start, we evaluated three different groups of individuals. We used fair to medium skinned females, age 35-65 years old, which is typical for these types of studies. They were assigned to each group based on their skin type so that we could better understand how different skin...

Nail enthusiasts all want the same thing: vibrant nail colors sans chipping. There’s something extremely satisfying about leaving a nail salon with a set of perfectly colored nails that you know will not chip. You feel more confident—done up, even.

Unfortunately, nail enthusiasts have also suffered the consequences of regular manicures. While getting frequent manicures can add a fun aesthetic element to your style, they can also be quite damaging to your natural nail.

Getting a manicure involves a lot of chemicals—none of which are gentle or loving to your nails. For example, gel nail lovers need to soak their...

The epidermis, commonly referred to as skin, is composed of multiple layers. The outermost layer, the stratum corneum, is the visible portion of the epidermis. It needs to be continuously shed for a youthful look. For more information on exfoliation, see Exfoliation for a Radiant Glow. Daily cleansing assists in mechanically removing the outermost layer of dead skin cells. It also removes bacteria, viruses, dirt and pollutants which can adhere to the stratum corneum. Essentially, cleansing the skin removes this unwanted debris. It is surprising that 60% of millennials will skip this vital step of their cleansing routine because they...
