The Glow of Healthy Skin

Mmmmm! The glow of healthy skin! Nothing says healthy and well being than glowing radiant skin. The Mayo Clinic gives us 5 ways to perpetuate the coveted good countenance.



  1. Sun protection - when possible stay out of the sun between 10am & 4pm when the rays are the strongest. R+F SPF 30 Body Sunscreen Lip Shield SPF 25


  2. No smoking - smoking reduces collagen & elastin, the fibers that give skin its strength & elasticity. Overnight Restorative Cream.


  3. Gentle treatment - Avoid strong soaps. Definitely moisturize for your skin type. Men - shaving can be harsh so proper preparation and after shave is important. R+F Soothe Regimen where Step 1 is a great shaving prep and Step 2 is a wonderful aftershave topped off with Step 3-the sunscreen.


  4. Eat a healthy diet of fruits, vege's, whole grains and lean proteins. Research suggests that a diet rich in Vitamin C and low in fats and carbs may promote younger looking skin.


  5. Control stress by balancing rest and recreation with work and a scaled back to do list.

And we must remember to hydrate!
