Finding the top facial cleansers is essential if you want to have soft and smooth skin that’s also healthy from the inside out. Some effective ingredients should be included to ensure this happens while avoiding the many harmful ones.

Most skincare today isn’t very good for your skin and overall health as it’s padded out with many chemicals that can dry out and age you further. Ones like parabens, fragrances and mineral oil should all be avoided, just check the labels to see.

A handful of companies produce some top facial cleansers that contain no harmful chemicals and some great natural ingredients without any harmful chemicals.

Maracuja is an extract from Brazilian passion fruit and is a natural emollient being close to the structure of your skin. It contains linolenic and essential fatty acids which help to nourish deep down, rejuvenating and helping to maintain the proper balance.

Another important one is Babassu wax from the Amazon rainforest, made from Babassu oil and has been used for centuries to soothe and care for the skin.

It helps to create an invisible barrier to repel everyday pollution while locking in the moisture to give your skin a softer and smoother feel and is great for both oily and dry skin.

There are others to consider too like Phytessence wakame, Jojoba and Grapeseed oil, Crodomol OP and active Manuka honey which all combine well to produce an even greater effect and deliver a different skin care experience.

These will effectively remove toxins and dirt while moisturizing deep down to help maintain truly healthy skin and fade away any signs of aging like wrinkles and lines and prevent them from returning.

If you look for these ingredients in the top facial cleansers you should notice the difference in a matter of weeks as your skin becomes softer and healthier with the gradual return of your more youthful looks.

Makeover Helps Older Job Seeker “Level the Playing Field”

COHASSET AND PLYMOUTH, MASS…

 

When it comes to finding a new job after 50, times have changed. Stellar credentials and years of experience get you so far in the job market. Competition with younger counterparts is tough and it takes more than great networking to land a job.

 

Many older job seekers are looking to “level the playing field” with their younger competitors and one of the ways they are doing so is by re-inventing themselves.

 

South Shore Skin Center of Plymouth and Cohasset collaborated with the Center for Progressive Dentistry of Duxbury; Eclipxe Hair Salon of Norwell, Holly Kouvo of Fitting Fitness In of Stow, MA and Coach DQ, Dawn Quesnel, a career life coach and host of Career Life Balance Radio, and held a Makeover Contest for women and men over 50 who had been downsized.

 

Carol Hedman, 63, of Cohasset has been selected as the winner of the Makeover Contest. Ms. Hedman had been working for a medical provider and held a second job with a dental provider and was downsized from both South Shore companies. After looking for work for several months, she thought she was about to receive a job offer from a Boston firm. Unfortunately, another applicant, who is 30 years her junior, got the job. Ms. Hedman then decided to enter the contest.

 

As the contest winner, Ms. Hedman will receive:

 

  • A Cosmetic Dermatology Treatment

  • Teeth Whitening

  • New Haircut/Style

  • A Fitness Consultation

  • Career and Life Coaching Services

 

According to Ms. Hedman, “Feeling good about your appearance makes you confident and that’s important. I’m very excited about my makeover. I’m setting the foundation of what’s ahead…This next chapter and what’s to come.”

 

The Makeover Contest was held based on the success of a previous makeover on Scituate resident Dave Flanagan, 54. Mr. Flanagan underwent a full makeover which included Botox Cosmetic treatments to smooth forehead wrinkles and Sculptra for the deep lines around his mouth. He had his teeth whitened and an updated haircut. He also met with a Fitness Trainer who educated him about how fitness and nutrition would keep him at the top of his game, and a Career Life Coach to help him obtain his goals. The makeover worked and shortly after, Dave was happy to report he was back at work.

 

Dave’s success inspired South Shore Skin Center to hold a Makeover Contest to help other seniors who may have been faced with “ageism” in the job market.
