Now that we have all rung in the New Year and had our last remaining remnants of cake candies and cookies and fat-filled foods, most of us feel like it is the perfect time to detox our bodies with a new year, new you cleanse. Great idea and I will join you! Our Ultimate Living customer service team can give you the perfect plan to get you back on the path to a healthier and lighter you, but what about your skin? Hmm….

Did you know that your skin is your largest body organ? Most people don’t realize this because they don’t think of their skin as an organ. They think of their heart, liver, lungs etc., but not their skin. Well, guess what? It takes the prize for the largest organ, and also has the responsibility of taking care of you in many more ways than you probably ever even thought about. The skin removes impurities and controls your internal heating and cooling system among many other functions. Many times infections of the

skin can be markers for other health problems, so it is important to pay attention to what is happening on the outside of your body as well as the inside of your body.

This leads me to the purpose of my article. While you are detoxing your body, you may as well detox your skin, and I mean your face! That puffy lackluster appearance and grey palor you are seeing when you look in the mirror may well be from your diet, your lifestyle and just plain laziness when it comes to your skin care routine. I know I am guilty, and I even own a skin care company! During the holidays many of us overindulge in the wrong foods and drinks, suffer from a lack of sleep, and stress over things that normally we don’t worry about. Believe it or not, our skin suffers from all this change and it shows on our faces.

Hard Night Good Morning (how perfect is that name for the holidays?) has come up with just the right treatment plan to get your skin back into tip-top shape! It is called our Detox-in-a-Box program! It consists of our Detox Mineral Masque and our Detox Toner. Adding these two items to your skin care regimen will give you back the radiance and rested appearance you are lacking. Created for the glamour girl-on-the-go, the corporate executive, the Supermom and the party princess, these products are perfect for restoring your glam and glow! Men even love to use it after they shave!!

Apply the Detox Mineral Masque three times per week. The first time will pull out all the impurities that have been building in your skin over the last few months. So, use it when you have some downtime. I suggest using it on a Friday the first time, when you know that you have a weekend at home, or any other day that you know will be followed by days where you can give your skin some time to breathe; if you can go without makeup for two days that would be optimal. After the first usage you will use the masque again on day three. Your skin will start to become clear now that the impurities are removed. Keep up the program and use the masque religiously three times per week for that constant radiant glow. Your skin will thank you, there will be no surprise-hidden offenders under the skin’s surface waiting to erupt and your face will show the results!

The Detox Toner should be used morning and evening after cleansing. However, you should also be using it after applying the masque for optimum results. The Malakite in the toner and the masque helps to fight free radical damage and increase collagen 1 synthesis. It also works to remove impurities and acts as a natural sun shield. The fruit stem cells in the toner are chock full of antioxidants that will feed your skin the nutrients it is craving. Also, the Khus extract works as an antibacterial to fight off acne, blackheads and breakouts. Whoo hoo!

A side-note, the Detox Toner may also be used to refresh your complexion during the day. Many women and men keep it in their handbag, car, office or briefcase to freshen up when they are feeling tired dull or looking just plain sallow! It will restore a natural glow and won’t mess up the makeup. In fact, it will give you that dewy, youthful appearance.
