Rosehip Maize Exfoliating Masque Traditional Series



For my loyal followers, you may have noticed I've written about this particular product before. It is one of my all time favorite Eminence products. I've faithfully have been using the Eminence VitaSkin Clear Skin supplements daily along with masking with the Clear Skin Probiotic Masque twice a week for the past two weeks. This is no exaggeration, my skin has never looked better...never. I've also been using my Suki Balancing Day lotion with Jane Iredale base for my daily protection, and at night Suki's Pure Moisturizing Balancing product. WOW. Really this is a winning combo for me. But I was out of my Rosehip Maize Exfo. Masque that I use not only for an exfoliator, but for also a treatment Masque (though the masking has been replaced with the Clear Skin). Yesterday I purchased the Traditional Series Rosehip and Maize Exfoliating Masque because even though I'm using the Clear Skin Masque, I still need a gentle exfoliator once or twice a week,and of course, had to use it last night. I've never used the Traditional series before (Traditional Series in the Eminence Line means extra rich and easier removal) and I gotta say......I LOVE IT even more than the original version. It has the same beautiful light scent and the maize pieces gently exfoliated my skin to perfection. I left it on for 20 minutes, rinsed with cool water, and followed with my toner and instead of the Suki Pure Moisture Balancing, I used Eminence's Thermal Spring Whipped Moisturizer, which I really liked. My husband sweetly nuzzled me and told me I was beautiful and smelled edible afterwards. It doesn't get better than that :)

So if you are looking for a beautiful gentle exfoliator that will give your skin a healthy glow without harsh chemicals or irritating particles, this product is for you. Even my Rosacea clients!! I promise you that you wont be disappointed. And better yet, leave it on a little longer (20 minutes or so) for a powerful calming treatment masque! It's a two in one zen skin product pick!

Sweet Sweet Rose

One of my new favorite Eminence products right now is the Sweet Red Rose Cleanser. The scent of this product is truly remarkable. Organic Red Rose Petal and Red Rose Juice along with the Red Rose Distillate gives this gentle cleanser a scent so pure and real, I look forward to cleansing with this every single night. It is designed for very sensitive skin and effectively removes impurities without over stripping your vital moisture. It is so gentle I even use it to remove my eye makeup! The milky consistency of this heavenly product feels luxurious and leaves my skin perfectly cleansed and soft. Nothing says spring and summer like the sweet scent of organic rose. Shower yourself in Roses every day.

VitaSkin






The new VitaSkin™ Vitamin Solutions Collection is now available at Lofty Salon and Wellness Center! This new collection of Clear Skin, Calm Skin and Firm Skin Vitamin Solutions are designed to address three different skin conditions including anti-aging (Firm Skin), rosacea (Calm Skin), and acne (Clear Skin). These unique formulations work together with organic masque pairings to treat your skin inside and out to maximize results.

The VitaSkin™ Vitamin Solutions Collection has been clinically tested by an FDA certified laboratory and the results are impressive:


50% of users noticed a reduction in the appearance of skin redness in just 14 days with the Calm Skin Solution


86% of users reported an improvement in skin elasticity in just 14 days and 100% of users reported an improvement in skin elasticity and skin firmness in only 28 days with the Firm Skin Solution


75% of users reported a reduction in acne lesions and scars in just 14 days and in 28 days, 100% felt there was a reduction in the number of acne scars



The Calm Skin, Clear Skin and Firm Skin VitaSkin™ Vitamin Solutions for wellness and beauty employ the innovative Moisture Defense System of pill in pill technology to efficiently protect moisture-sensitive ingredients in the delivery through your body. This unique system creates both internal and external barriers to prevent water migration and maintain stability of the ingredients to ensure the delayed release of the nutrients found in the inside capsule. The pills are designed with inherent, natural properties that mimic the microorganisms that live in your intestines. This prevents the need for enteric coating on the capsules which can often contain toxic chemicals or be harmful to the live bacteria held in the pills. The special delivery system keeps the bacteria stable and inactive until they reach the intestines naturally and is safe for consumption for those with dietary limitations, like vegans.

Calm and soothe sensitive, rosacea prone skin from the inside out with our Calm Skin time release capsules rich with flax seed oil and pine bark extract. Pair with the Calm Skin Arnica Masque for polished and smooth skin.


Say goodbye to problem skin and hello to a radiantly clear complexion with our new clarifying solution. The Clear Skin vitamin capsules are enriched with borage seed oil, acidophilus, zinc and nutraflora which work together with the Clear Skin Probiotic Masque to reduce the signs of acne and calm the skin.

Both the Firm Skin vitamins and Firm Skin Acai Masque are designed to improve skin elasticity and generate skin that boasts the appearance of fewer fine lines and wrinkles. The key ingredients, including seabuckthorn, acai, hyaluronic acid and grape seed, help plump and rejuvenate skin to turn back the years for a beautiful, youthful glow.
