Stay Smelling Sweet

The best, most natural way to keep smelling fresh and sweet – without having to worry about toxic chemicals – is to make your own perfume! Don’t worry; it’s not as hard as you might think.

In fact, it’s simple, safe and fun! Choose your favorite scents and mix them together to match your style and personality. I personally love jasmine and eucalyptus. Alone or together these scents make me feel relaxed and beautiful.

Here’s a recipe for you to try…

Perfectly Excellent

Do you consider yourself to be a perfectionist? I must admit, I have a bit of a perfectionist streak in me. It’s something I’m learning to resist. In fact, Dr. Mollie Marti, founder of BestLifeDesign.com, suggested that I “strive for excellence, not perfection.” I let that sink in and realized we don’t have to be perfect. Perfection is totally unattainable anyway, so why not be the most “excellent” we can be in all areas, including the way we look and feel?

Putting Myself in a Woman’s Shoes

I just read a study that proves how dangerous those drugs that are labeled “HRT” are.

I call them drugs because they’re not real hormones. Hormones have to be made in your body, and these are synthetically created.

I can’t help but get mad at this. I’m so tired of women being in this unnecessary danger.

As you read this, millions of women are getting estrogen.

Sexy Enough for Sandals

Living in South Florida, I get to wear sandals almost all year round. So I have to keep up with my nails, especially because I work in the beauty industry. If I showed clients chipped, cracked or discolored nails, I’d lose business.

Nail fungus is a fairly common problem. And it can turn even an outgoing woman into a hermit. Thick, yellow nails – all cracked and chipped – look horrible in a pair of open-toed shoes. And nail fungus can be tough to get rid of.

Today I’ll share a few natural secrets that can help you get back into your sandals…

How to Slash Your Risk of 17 Kinds of Cancer

For years, everyone’s warned you about the sun. They spin tales of fried skin, growing old before your time and horrible cancers. The sun, they say, is your worst enemy.

But this is junk science at its worst. You need sunlight for good health. More than 200 studies prove that avoiding sunlight is one of the biggest medical mistakes of the last half-century.

Here are just a few of the ways sunshine can improve the quality of your life…

Your Hand Sanitizer Could Make You Sick

It shocks people to find out that I don’t use anti-bacterial soaps or hand sanitizers.

But it shouldn’t… because these products don’t work.

Advertisers almost make it seems reasonable that you should use something to “sanitize” your hands from all the “harmful” bacteria.

In fact, most people firmly believe that anti-bacterial soaps are better for you than regular soap.

But it’s just not true.

The Truth About Aging and Menopause

Stress and hormones may not be the most popular fodder for dinnertime conversation. But that was the topic of discussion on my first night of our “girls’ getaway” in Jamaica.

A group of my friends and I decided to take a five-day vacation to relax and unwind. A few martinis later, everyone was suddenly discussing the different stress factors in their lives and how everything seemed to change past the age of 30.

For starters, our tolerance for drinking had definitely gone down! Our skin regimens seemed to have become significantly more complicated. Our attitudes toward exercise had become discouraging to say the least.

Until my girlfriends and I got together to talk, I thought I was the only one who felt these frustrations. A friend who was over 50 assured the group that it only gets worse with age. This got me thinking: How can we battle the exhaustion that we feel and still preserve our pretty?

You Don’t Have to Be Your Mother

Do you remember what your mother went through with menopause? Well, fortunately for you, there are plenty of safe, natural ways to avoid the symptoms she probably experienced. My mama started going through it when she was 45 years young. It’s been 10 years and she still sweats bullets. The only time the symptoms give her a break is when she takes her supplements.
