Listen to your body. While it's easy to get carried away with all the rich, yummy food everywhere you turn during the holiday season, don't throw discretion to the way-side. Balance those sweets with nourishing greens, and give your gut some back-up with Digestive Enzymes and Herbal Colonics. We love starting our day with a warm cup of water with lemon to detox the intestines, kick-start our metabolism for the day, and even give our skin an alluring glow! 

We're all too familiar with the stress that comes with preparing for the holidays. The cleaning, the shopping, the cooking, the in-laws! It can really take its toll on us if we let it. Focus on re-directing your thoughts to the pleasures of the season to alleviate some of that stress. Don't underestimate the power of your own mind! Take a moment to unplug each morning and start your day by jotting down 3 things you are thankful for. This will streamline those positive thoughts to the forefront of your mind and give bad energies the boot!
PRO TIP: Body Talk helps neutralize emotional effects on the body and is designed to cancel feelings of anger, sadness, and fear so you can enjoy each present moment sans stress.

When exhaustion sets in, it can feel nearly impossible to recover. Everyone knows the feeling of sluggish fatigue from November until January. Keep your energy levels up all season long by starting within! Contrary to what we sometimes may think... 3 lattes a day will rapidly dwindle your energy and stamina to conquer long, busy days. Instead, hydrate and nourish your body and watch it thrive! Elevate is a holistic solution to your chronic fatigue throughout the holidays. Its caffeine-free capsules offer a boost of sustained energy while detoxing cells and promoting mental clarity and focus so you can stay alert and energized all day long without the crash. We also love these fun tips to help keep your energy up all day!

Prioritize.

Society and the media drill into our minds that the holidays are a "season of giving" (A.K.A. shop 'til you drop). And though we are firm believers that every season should be the season of giving, how can we give our all to others when we don't have all of ourselves to give? Sometimes we give away our time, money, attention, and services until we run ourselves into the ground which is harmful to our bodies and mental health. This year, place an importance on self-care and take the time to prioritize your commitments. Ensuring that you are giving back to yourself will, in turn, increase your ability to give love back to others! We love waking up each morning and enjoying a warm beverage before the house wakes. Sitting quietly with yourself fuels your mind and body and helps prepare it for the day.

Give yourself all the time you need to relax. Re-charge in the evenings after guests leave by taking a warm bath, or prop your feet up for 10 minutes while the cookies are in the oven. This refueling and focus on yourself helps provide the stamina needed to take on all the season's festivities!
PRO TIP: Struggle to unwind after a long day of entertaining? Relax Water is treated with frequencies that help create a sense of peace and balance while lessening tension so you can rest easy!

Add a splash of color to your eyes this holiday season by including the new Water Color eye shadows in your beauty routine.  Wear them individually and sweep all over the eyelid for a subtler look.  Using the Age Defying Treatment Concealer, apply to lids as an eye shadow base.  Pick your favorite Water Color shade and apply a gradient of color starting darker at the lash line and becoming lighter as you get into the brow area.  Finish the look with the new Liquid Eye Definer and the Lengthening Mascara to enhance lashes.

 

 

 

 

For a more dramatic holiday look, use all three Water Color shades at once.  Begin by applying Onyx at the end of the eye to enhance the outer lashes.  Using Topaz as your contour color, apply across the brow bone.  For brightness and drench of luminosity, add Amethyst to the center of the eye, blending them all together.

 

 

Radiance is in for the Holidays so don't be afraid to shine!
