Ancient Chinese Secret?

I've always looked young for my age, I didn't used to love it.  I would get upset when I got carded to purchase alcohol, or the time I got carded at the casino ( I was in my 30's).  It's a compliment, I know, but I would get irritated.....

NOW, I LOVE getting carded or told that I look young for my age.  I've been blessed with good genes (thanks Mom and Dad) and I eat right, drink my water, exercise and use good skin care products.

My niece told me that I look 30.  I'm 46, so that is a big compliment!   (She is 15)  I'm sharing my secrets, so to speak with her and I want to share them with you too!  No, it isn't an ancient chinese secret (now I'm really showing my age....)


 
What you eat, drink and put on your skin makes such a difference in how you look.

The foods you should eat include a diet rich in fruits, veggies and nuts.  These all provide your skin with the nutrients, vitamins and fatty acids needed to maintain beautiful skin.

  Drinking plenty of water ( at least 64 oz per day) keeps you hydrated and flushes out toxins in your body that affect your skin.



The products you use on your skin certainly affect how it looks.  Use natural cleansers and moisturizers and of course Nerium AD.  I am seeing such great results with Nerium.  My age spots (yes, I have some) are fading, the wrinkles are going away, especially around my eyes, and my pores are getting smaller.  I am loving it!


So, remember that what you eat and what you use are so important.  Make the right decisions and you will have younger, healthy skin!!  Isn't that what we all want?

Black Pumpkins?

I've had a GREAT weekend so far!  We came to the lake and have been taking it easy and enjoying some time with Brian's parents!

Today was a trip to Tulsa, We shopped at Whole Foods and Bass Pro.  What wouldn't be great about that?

When we got home, Brian and I went for a walk and checked on our pumpkin patch.  It's funny, this patch has just sprouted up on it's own and it is HUGE.  When we were here last time, the patch was full of pumpkins, but someone has taken almost all of them.  There are more growing, but this was the only one large enough to pick.


I don't know much about growing pumpkins, do they turn orange after you pick them?  This one was so much darker than the other, smaller ones, it looks black.

We headed out for the evening and saw an amazing sunset.


Of course, we had to make a stop at the casino and they are all ready for Halloween....


Tomorrow is another great day at the lake and then it's back to reality!!!

My Real Results

I've been using my Nerium AD for 8 days now and I thought I'd show you my results. 



I'm so excited that you can even see results after 8 days!!  How awesome is that????


                                                 Before                                           7 Days
The wrinkles (horizontal) on my forehead are fading, the redness in my face is diminishing. 
and even though I cut my chin off (it's hard to take your own photos), I had these red bumps on the bottom of my chin - kinda like acne scars, they are GONE!   My skin is sooo soft and smooth.  One of the best parts!!

I'm continuing on this path and I am quite pleased with my results after just one week.  I can't wait to see how I look in 30 days!

If you want more info or want to order (remember we have a 30 day money-back guarantee),get in touch with me or check out my website - http://www.dana.nerium.com

Are you a positive person?

or a Debbie Downer?  I know way too many people that look at everything negatively.  Personally, I have to look at the positive side of things, it's just my personality.  However, I am finding more and more that life is just too short to spend time with negative people.



Everyone has their own problems and things going on in their life, but you may not ever know it about some people.  Others seem to shout it from the rooftop and expect everyone to think they are the only one.

As I get older (well, I'm not THAT old....) I am just cutting out the people that are too negative.  It isn't fun to be around them, they never ask how things are with you or your loved ones, and it just makes me angry. 

Don't get me wrong, I understand that there are times when things get us down, I have been there several times, but I truly believe that you are in charge of your moods and happiness.  I CHOOSE to be HAPPY!

Spend time with loved ones and people that make you laugh,  do things that are fun, whatever that is for you.  For me, dancing around the house to my favorite music always puts me in a good mood, being around my family and friends is a mood lifter and I always laugh.  Doing my workouts and spending a few moments to be thankful for all the blessings in my life are great ways to get in a better mood.  It may not make the problems go away, but you will feel better, even if it is just a few moments.  Try not to be so focused on the negative things in life,  count your blessings.





Let's face it - when we are happy:

we feel better

we look better

we sleep better

people want to be around us.

So, this is my motto for life:

Three small rules for living a happy life

1. Start each day with a grateful heart.

2. Focus on the positive aspects of every person you encounter.

3. End each day with a grateful heart.

How do you CHOOSE to live your life!

Remember - to Genuinely Glow - Be HAPPY!!

WELCOME!!!!

Wow, I can't believe that I am starting another blog!  But I am so excited about Nerium and my experiences with how health and fitness affect your skin, I thought it was worthy of its own place! 

So welcome to my page and I hope that you will find this page and information extremely helpful. 

So many things play an important role in our health and in our skin.  Diet, exercise, water intake, sleep and what we put ON our skin all affect how our skin looks.

I have been told many times that I don't look my age. I am fortunate that I have good genes (thanks Mom and Dad!!) and I really do take care of myself.  Not only in my diet and exercise routines, but also in what products I use on my face.

I've always tried to use natural products (atleast when I figured out how much it matters)and products that work,  and this is why I chose to become a Nerium Independent Brand Partner
