THE SECRET TO BEING BATHING SUIT READY BY MEMORIAL DAY???

HOW TO DROP THE EXCESS WEIGHT FAST:
I’ve been safely drinking myself skinny for the past 6 weeks and it’s become second nature to me. So here’s the 411: Pure Trim Shakes come in 3 flavors: Chocolate, Vanilla or Strawberry. They’re gluten, whey, dairy and soy free and super low in sugar. They’re plant based and fill you up for about 4 hours at a time. You drink one at breakfast time and one at dinner and eat a sensible, balanced, lean, protein filled lunch. What blew me away about the brand is these shakes were created to help maintain the elasticity and tone in your skin. As you start to lose weight, you often are left with saggy skin and then what do you do? No one talks about this. However Pure Trim addressees this little reality and tries to impact it in a positive way. The Boost Tea is great over ice! It’ll help boost your metabolism and reduce your appetite and food cravings with the help of 31 organic ingredients. It’s also plant based has zero caffeine and zero sugar. You know that stubborn fat around your hips? The tea is great in helping shed these unwanted, hard to drop pounds.
HAIR FREE IN 3 TREATMENTS? HELLO SHORTS, SKIRTS & BATHING SUITS!
LumaRx IPL SKIN BEAUTY SYSTEM
PRICE: $379 For Mini & $449 for Full Size PROMO CODE 4/29 – 5/13 = “Phoenix60” Saves you $60
SHOP: www.luma-rx.com
HOW DOES THIS TECHNOLOGY EXACTLY WORK?
LumaRx is the game changer in home hair removal devices I’ve been patiently waiting for! We’re talking PERMANENT hair reduction in just 3 treatments. It’s safe! It’s FDA cleared for use on female facial hairs and body. What was once only available through a dermatologist is now accessible in an at-home device. LumaRx gives you the benefits of clinical IPL hair removal, without a derm visit or a prescription. It has something called Intense Pulsed Light Technology, which works deep beneath the skin’s surface to target hair where it starts at the root! In a mere 3 treatments it gradually shrinks the root and breaks the hair growth cycle, resulting in a permanent reduction in the amount of unwanted hair. It has a skin tone tester to help determine if this device is suitable for use on the area you want hair free. So in a nutshell, it has the ability to protect us… it houses a built in skin cop! And it’s not painful compared to other brands I’ve experimented with over the years. The mini is ideal for a female face and contour areas such as underarms or bikini line. While the bigger version targets larger parts of our bodies so think: legs and arms. This summer I raise my arm pit with total confidence!

PHOTOS DON’T LIE!
Whether attending graduations, weddings, sporting events, barbecues or your vacation, summer has to be the number one season for taking pictures. Wedding season terrifies me because there’s zero margin for error in photos that are meant to last a lifetime.

Think an hour day for 2 weeks. The Crest Supreme Flexfit Whitestrips are perfect while watching TV, reading, answering emails or chilling out by the pool or beach. Crest uses the same enamel safe, teeth-whitening ingredients dentist use. The whole experience is comfortable and do-it-yourself empowering.

VENICE GOLD & DIAMOND FACE SERUMS

VeniceGOLD is your before-bedtime, one-stop-shop organic skin serum for your face and neck that lifts, firms, hydrates, tones, and reduces the appearance of wrinkles and boosts collagen synthesis and elasticity all while you sleep. Once you begin using this you can literally say “adios” to all your various serums and moisturizers. I know this is challenge to wrap your head around but it’s the God’s truth! It’s a perfect treatment to help counter all the accelerated aging effects the summer sun attacks our skin with. The secret inside the bottle? 19 million organic rejuvenating Italian Plant Stem Cells, skin-saving probiotics, hydrating and collagen-producing 24K gold plus Italian-imported organic chamomile, lavender and calendula in every application. It’s an anti-aging game changer, I’ve been recently “wow’ed” by!
VeniceDIAMOND Summer Mornings just got way smoother! This magical multi-tasking serum (again “one and done” so in the AM this is all you need on clean skin!) targets all your aging dilemmas, including fine lines, deeper wrinkles, discoloration, dryness, loss of elasticity and lack of luminosity. What’s unique with this day time serum is the infusion of real diamond powder into this equation. Who knew, but diamond powder gently exfoliates surface skin cells thereby opening the door to the team of other ingredients in this treatment: Vitamin C, Acai Oil and Hylauronic Acid Spheres to renew and energize your sluggish complexion. The diamond particles also add a luminous, sexy sheen to skin eliminating the need for heavy makeup. After you cleanse your face, apply 3 dime size droplets to hand gently press into your face and neck until it’s fully absorbed.
