Self-care is essential right now—and beauty treatments are a great way to show it. Having a self-care routine helps anchor you in times of stress and uncertainty. It allows you to indulge and impart a sense of normality when other areas of your life are in discord or feel stressful.

One of the easiest and best ways to do this is to schedule a regular time for a beauty ritual. Give yourself an hour—or an entire evening—to show yourself some love while taking care of your skin, hair and well-being. Here is a step-by-step guide for one of our favorite stay-at-home beauty treatments.

Run a Bubble Bath

If you have a bathtub, you are set! Run a nice warn bath with Epsom salts to help relax and detox your muscles. Add your favorite bubble bath and/or essential oils. Light an aromatherapy candle, our a cup of hot tea and set up a bath pillow. Play some relaxing classical or meditation music.

If a bath is not available, set up on a comfy sofa with your favorite comforter or weighted blanket.

Apply Deep Conditioner

Apply a deep conditioner that targets your hair’s needs. Put on a shower cap and wrap a towel around it for maximum absorption.

Mask Time

An excellent way to pamper yourself is with our best-selling Face Lift to Go mask. This enzymatic mask exfoliates and detoxifies to help prevent and clear up breakouts while sloughing dead skin cells to reveal a healthy, youthful glow. Face Lift to Go also has powerful lifting and firming action that dramatically tightens the dermis. Apply it for 45 minutes for best results.

Step into the bath and relax while these treatments work their magic. Click through to learn more about our amazing Face Lift to Go mask and other advanced skin care products.

Aging gracefully doesn’t mean we have to give in to wrinkles—we can fight the signs of aging naturally with simple habits like consistent skin care and daily facial exercises. Many believe the misconception that wrinkles simply come with age. The reality is, most fine lines and wrinkles are due to photodamage and exposure to free radicals. If you follow the tips below, you’ll keep your skin looking smooth and beautiful for decades to come.

1. Minimize Sun Exposure

Exposure to the sun’s dangerous UV rays leads to the breakdown of collagen, the protein responsible for skin’s elasticity and firmness. Avoiding the sun as much as possible. Protect your skin by wearing sunblock with a high SPF every single day, hats and sun protective clothing.

2. Cleanse Properly

Wash your face once or twice a day, based on your skin type. Ask your dermatologist or esthetician what they recommend. Don’t ever skip this step! Washing properly sloughs away the dead skin cells that clog pores and dull skin.

3. Avoid Smoking

Smoking is the fastest way to thin your skin, break down collagen and cause wrinkles. Avoid it at all costs.

4. Exfoliate Regularly

Exfoliating sheds dead skin cells, refines texture and allows skin to reflect light. This helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles and promotes healthier skin.

5. Wear Sunglasses

Wear sunglasses with polarized lens to protect the delicate skin around your eyes.

6. Avoid Squinting

Prevent Crow’s feet, the 11s and under-eye bags by avoiding squinting. Wear sunglasses, readers and hats to put a stop to any form of this wrinkle-inducing behavior.

7. Use Retinol

One of the best ways to exfoliate the skin and boost collagen production is regular use of a retinol product. Our Retinol Skin Conditioner is a best seller because its formula is gentle, yet yields marked results.

8. Do Facial Exercises Daily

A regular Facercise practice boosts circulation so that the skin cells receive the oxygen. Facial exercises also stimulate collagen and elastin production to promote firmer skin and soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

9. Sleep on Your Back

When you sleep on your side or stomach, this smashes your skin into your pillow. The skin creases, and over time, develops permanent wrinkles. Sleep on your back and elevate your head to protect your skin overnight.

10. Eat to Prevent Wrinkles

A diet rich in antioxidants and healthy fats boosts collagen, reduces inflammation and fights free radical damage. Choose lots of colorful produce like citrus, berries, tomatoes, squash, sweet potatoes and dark leafy greens like spinach, broccoli, kale and Brussels sprouts. Some excellent sources of healthy fats include avocados, salmon, tuna, mackerel, walnuts, Brazil nuts, almonds and extra virgin olive oil.

Many of us suffer from the unsightly condition called cellulite, which is one of the reasons I created No Lipo Lipo. This stubborn “cottage cheese” appearance appears on the skin on our legs, glutes, arms and stomach. It’s stubborn and difficult, which is why many are driven to try risky, expensive procedures for reducing cellulite.

Save your money and avoid the side effects associated with surgery—and the unpredictable results—with the natural techniques below.

Dry Brush Regularly

Dry brushing with one of our Sisal louffas from Germany is an excellent way to break up the connective tissue and detox the skin. It also boosts the lymphatic system, which helps eliminate toxins from the body. Dry brushing also stimulates circulation, which facilitates the delivery of oxygen to the cells and helps prevent cellulite.

Hydrate Properly

Drink plenty of water and tea! Hydration plumps up the skin, which smooths and reduces the appearance of cellulite. It flushes the toxins trapped underneath the skin’s layers of fat that give the skin a bumpy look and plumps up skin cells.

Cut Out the Whites

Refined sugars and simple carbs contribute to the formation of cellulite, while a healthy diet helps prevent it. As a rule, avoid white food like bread, rice and baked goods made with refined white sugar. Eat a diet rich in lean protein, fiber and antioxidants.

Do No Lipo Lipo Regularly

My favorite cure for stubborn cellulite is No Lipo Lipo. You can perform this on yourself using the No Lipo Lipo DVD. It’s the best routine you will ever add to your regimen.

Apply Retinol

My clients experience marked results from applying a Retinol Skin Conditioner to bumpy areas. Topical retinoids smooth the skin, boost collagen and reduce the appearance of cellulite with regular use.
