Ever wonder how it is possible for an anti-aging cream to work for people of all ages? Time for a wake-up call! No such thing exists.

Jasmina Aganovic, a MIT-trained chemical and biological engineer, came up with a product that focuses on age specificity.

Stages of Beauty is a new skincare product that caters to the needs of women in their 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s. As the years go by, free radicals, stress, and UV rays continually victimize our skin; however, using your ordinary anti-aging cream won’t do the trick.

Ms. Aganovic delved deeper into researching the mystery behind achieving glowing beautiful skin. Turns out, as we age our skin becomes thinner. We live in constant exposure, and as we age, our skin matures and requires more attention.

Stages of Beauty offers specific ingredients for every product of every age group that leaves skin hydrated, firm, and reinforced.

What I really loved was the magical packaging! In a sleek black box lies Ms. Aganovic’s divine creation atop a bed of white shredded bits.

While the packaging was superb, I didn’t find the cream to be of the same caliber. It was definitely not my favorite, but I decided to keep my opinions to myself until I heard from the older generation in my household. When I did, I could only smile. The women in our family share everything. My grandma said the cream was not oily enough and her face was very dry. My mom said that her skin didn’t feel hydrated at all, and she didn’t like the consistency of the cream. There was one more sample for us to try, but we don’t have a 30 plus brigade of women to test it out, but based on us three, we didn’t love it.

 

What do I think about this product?

 

I hate it

Sorry Jasmina, women in this household are a tough crowd to please.

KmS Skincare

Every woman I know is looking for the miracle ointment, cream or pill to erase wrinkles and get back the face she had when she was twenty. While no such fountain-of-youth product has been put on sale for mass consumption, the cosmetic industry has really stepped up its production of anti-aging products.


I’ve done my fair share of sifting through all kinds of products; serums, creams, lotions, pills, sprays—it’s endless. But my favorite of the moment is KmS Mineral Essentials. A product that Kristi Shannon, member of Fabulously40.com came up with.


KmS also offers a mineral makeup line, but their product line of lotions, cleansers and creams are all natural, as most mineral cosmetic products are. It’s a small mom-and-pop kind of company that takes pride in customer satisfaction and producing a good product.


As every woman approaches her forties, we start to really notice the changes in our faces and all the parts we’d like to stretch back into place. While KmS is not the miracle cream we all dream of, it’s an excellent line of products that make my face feel refreshed and youthful. Check out http://kmsmineralessentials.com/default.aspx for more information and to see if it’s the right combination for you, too!

Daisy told you all about the devise, now let me put my two cents in. Clarisonic recently launched their miniature-sized version of their original Clarisonic: Clarisonic Mia Sonic Skin Cleansing System. It’s cheaper than the original model, it’s available in pink and it’s just perfect for the traveling woman or your college daughter.

Why choose this one compared to the other three models by Clarisonic? Check out their chart featuringthe Mia, Classic, PLUS and PRO and see their differences for yourself.


Why do I like the Clarisonic Mia?
I’ll start with the fact that it’s small but more importantly, I feel that it is works just as well as the Clarisonic Classic. The Mia head brush is the same size as the Classic, but it is about two inches smaller than the origina;. It still covers the same surface area as the Classic would—it is just not as bulky! It comes with a pLink charger opposed to a cradle charger like the Classic, making it easier for travel and storage.



I know what you’re thinking: “What’s the downside?

Unlike the Classic which has two speed settings, Mia only has one. However, you probably will not even notice the lack of speed options. The battery life is also different. With a full charge, Mia will last twenty minutes while the Classic lasts thirty. Once again, you probably will not even notice the difference. I use my Mia at least five times a week, sometimes for more than two minutes at a time, and I only have to charge it once every two weeks…so I’m not sure if the twenty minute battery is accurate but I feel that I am getting more out of it than that.

Overall, I feel the Clarosonic Mia is a great investment. It is an easy and an efficient way to cleanse your skin. It cleans your skin up to six times as deep as washing your face with your hands would and I feel that it leaves me with a smoother and clearer overall look. I really enjoy having Mia handy, she comes with me everywhere and although I still wash my face with my hands, I am sure to wash it over again with Mia. The cleaner the better, and Mia can help you get there!
