Most mothers will agree that the six-month postpartum mark is a huge milestone for the whole family. Most likely, baby is now sleeping through the night, you don’t feel like you are nursing/feeding around the clock and your life starts to show signs of normalcy, again. Not to mention, the baby is starting to come into their own where traces of their personality are shining through, and they are gaining new skills that make it easier to join into the family fun – like sitting up and joining in on family meals.
For me, this is also the time I start to look around and notice all the things that were pushed to the back burner while I was trying to adjust to my new mom responsibilities. The two obvious ones that always daunt me are the relentless inbox that has an alarming new email count every time I sit down at the computer, and the other one glaring at me every time I look in the mirror, my skin care routine.
Luckily for me, I have an action plan for the latter. (Still working on the former). I am working with Nu Skin this fall to bring my skin back to life after the craziness that is having a baby. From hormonal changes due to pregnancy and nursing to just plain laziness from lack of sleep and all the consumingness of being a new mom, my skin was in major need to some TLC. But after just one use of some of these products (hello, Polishing Peel), I knew I was heading back in the right direction!
The Polishing Peel won my first impression rose for the instant viable results. My skin felt smoother and brighter after just one use. (The Pumpkin enzymes help resurface, soften and polish, while Bentonite clay helps remove dull skin cells and toxins).
But it wasn’t just my face in need of rescue. Houston summers can be pretty brutal thanks to the 100+ degree temperatures, and your whole body can be left out to dry, literally. The Liquid Body Lufra gently eases away dead skin cells and excess oil to revitalize your skin and give it a luminous glow. The gentle formula allows for daily use and is even ideal for shaving.
After my bath, I replenish my skin with the Perennial Intense Body Moisturizer. Believe it or not, this product is actually made so consumers can benefit from the same protection that nature uses to guard tender flower bulbs through the harsh winter. This is the first all-over moisturizer to contain narcissus tazzeta Bulb extract – a natural compound derived from narcissus bulbs, scientifically shown to increase cellular durability and maximize the skin’s defense against environmental aggressors such as wind and extreme temperatures.
Nu Skin literally has me covered from head to toe! Did wearing sandals and running around on the hot ground all summer leave your heels needing to hide in boots all winter? Don’t worry, this Sole Solution features crushed allspice berry traditionally used by the indigenous people of central america to relive persistent dry, cracked skin on feet. This product feels amazing and can replace that bi-monthly pedicure!
Last but certainly not least, this is sure to be any momma’s favorite! The ReishiMax is taken orally twice a day to help keep you feeling your best. It even supports a healthy immune system and stimulates the formation of antibodies, which is helpful with children going back to school in the fall.
I have been using the Nu Skin product line for almost two months now and I am so happy with the way my skin looks and feels. I am excited to continue to explore the product line and share more favorites with you along the way!
