Get a juicer this year, it could be one of the best investments you make for your health.

( STEP 10) DAILY SKINCARE RITUAL: Wether your a teen dealing with acne or a 40 year old with concerns of anti-aging, it’s never too early or too late to get on a skincare program that works for your personal skin-type and concerns. Always start with a gentle cleanser, exfoliate, moisturize and protect with an SPF during the day. Never forget your eyes and always use an eye cream! The signs of aging will always show first around the eyes. Remember your eyes are the window to your soul, so pay close attention to them. Ladies always wash your makeup off at night before you go to sleep and repeat your skincare ritual minus the SPF at nighttime. Use an intensive night time cream while your skin is replenishing itself as you sleep. Your skin will look amazing when you wake up and that’s beautiful!

SLEEP: Getting the proper amount of sleep every night will make you look and feel your very best throughout the day.

Try to get at least 6-7 hours of sleep every night. If you feel tired because you didn’t get a good nights rest, trust me it shows on your face and that’s not beautiful!
