Exclusive Skin Care Sponsor For Spa Week Review

Exclusive skin care sponsor for Spa Week (April 15-21) this year is Beautify Skin Care!

Beautify Skin Care is a professional grade, all natural skin care line! Research has shown that skin responds better to natural ingredients than it does to synthetics. Taking this fact and the fact that 1 out of 3 women develop some form of skin cancer in their life, Beautify created a line of chemical free, natural skin care products!
You will not find any of these dangerous ingredients in their gorgeous jars:

• Parabens
• Mineral Oil
• Dangerous Chemicals or Fillers
• Synthetic Detergents (SLS/SLES)
• Synthetic Perfumes
• Artificial Colors
• Polyethylane Glycol (PEG’s)
• No Animal Testing

Stop putting dangerous chemicals on your skin!

I had the opportunity to test out one of their products. My face is smooth and supple thanks to the Age-Defy Moisturizer Creme. Age-Defy is specially formulated for younger skin. It protects and keeps skin looking youthful.

Benefits:

• Age-Defy moisturizer utilizes the highest concentration of Vitamin A (Retinyl Palmitate, 20,000 I.U. per 100 grams), commonly referred to as the "Skin Vitamin" and best known for its cellular renewal properties to prevent and reduce the look of aging.
• Provides the maximum benefits of Vitamin A (Retinol) without common side effects such as photosensitivity, redness and irritation.
• Includes Acai: A Super-Fruit ranked as one of the best wrinkle fighting extracts on the planet. 
• Includes Green Tea, which is especially beneficial for sun or environmentally damaged skin. Daily application of this unique blend will leave the skin soft and supple.
• Professional Grade: An abundant amount of the finest clinically-proven natural ingredients available in a Skin Care line, coupled with a higher potency. Helps younger skin defy the signs of aging. Gives you the same potency from the spa, at home. 
• Skin Tip: Also use Age-Defy Eye Treatment, DermaToner, DermaRadiance Mask and DermaScrub Microdermabrasion for even better, faster results!

What did I think?

This is amazing stuff ladies! From the gorgeous jar to the smooth application, you will be addicted! The creme has a fabulously clean and natural scent. Because there are no artificial perfumes its so delicate as well. Within 30 minutes of application I could feel a difference! That has never happened to me before! I live in Arizona where it is quite dry. In the winter months I get a flaky dryness near my hairline and eyebrows. Strange, I know. Last week I started to notice a dry patch in the middle of my forehead. It persisted for a couple of days until I got my Age-Defy. I put it on and it was gone... never to be seen again. 

After a few days of using the Age-Defy I have smooth, moist and healthier looking skin. After having a baby and letting things like beauty slide a little, this is a great product and my favorite thing is that there are no chemicals in it! 

Let me also say that a little goes a long way! This bottle is going to last a while. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who is looking for a natural, safe and effective skin care line!

Whether you are a gourmet chef or a microwave maven, food can be sexy. This week on The Taste the contestants will have one bite to seduce the judges! It seems the judges/mentors have a different idea of what is sexy! I have to agree with Ludo and Nigella... Sometimes we need delicate, other times, not so much... Check out their sexy conversation:

Do you watch The Taste: Tuesday at 8|7c on ABC?

I was just introduced to a show that you are going to love! You may have noticed that I like to share some of my recipes with you. I enjoy cooking and trying new things but even more than that I like a little competition! Combine the 2 and you have me hooked! Whats great is that you don't even have cable or satellite TV, it airs on ABC Tuesday nights. 

Basically the contestants are divided into teams. Each team is mentored by a well known top chef. The individual chefs make a "spoon" and one spoon from each team is chosen to be tasted by the judges in a blind taste test! The winner gets immunity in the individual challenge!

In the individual challenge the mentors get to be the judges. They are, again, tasting blindly. They have no idea that they may be eliminating someone from their own team!

The judges have on spoonful to taste to choose a winner! 

“The Taste” features no-holds barred chef Anthony Bourdain, British food star Nigella Lawson, expert chef and author Ludo Lefebvre and restaurateur Brian Malarkey. Each of the four culinary superstars and “Taste” mentors – Bourdain, Lawson, Lefebvre and Malarkey – will coach a team of four competing pro and amateur cooks chosen from a nationwide casting call as they vie to create the best tasting dish.

You can see the most recent episode and even catch up on the whole season so far like I am on HERE. Trust me, if you like cooking. eating or just good ol' competition, you should check this out! Put the kids to bed, grab a glass of wine and enjoy!
