What To Eat At Night For Glowing Skin + 4 More Ways To Wake Up Feeling Beautiful

August 17, 2017 by debbiedavis

Let’s face it: Your morning skin-care routine can (and often does) turn into a race against the clock. So why not let your routine the night before do the heavy lifting for you while you sleep? Which raises the question: Does the effort you invest in your nighttime routine count?

To help you streamline the process, here are some easy-as-pie tips for achieving overnight radiance:

Get your beauty sleep.

The term “beauty sleep” is not too far from the truth. Sleep allows the skin to rejuvenate by stopping facial expressions and relaxing facial muscles. Lying down for an extended period of time also combusts the attack of gravity on the skin. Getting rest also helps to de-stress the body, remove toxins, and improve mood—all of which can help your complexion and facial appearance. READ MORE

Caffeine-Free Super Potions Are Taking Over The Internet. Here’s How To Make One For Yourself

August 10, 2017 by debbiedavis

When people try to break their reliance on caffeine (even experimenting with giving it up all together) it quickly becomes apparent how much its purpose is about the morning ritual rather than a simple caffeine fix. My husband grinds his own beans every morning, and the sound of the whirr of the beans and the aroma of bittersweet fresh coffee filling our house has become one of my favorite things to wake up to. He calls it his morning meditation—the boiling of the water, the grinding of the beans, filling the filter with water, and waiting for the fresh coffee to drip through.

While I don’t personally drink caffeine, my morning Dandelion Vanilla tea is my signal to my brain and body that the day is about to begin. These days, though, there are far more exciting options for a caffeine-free kick to start your morning. Insta-star Lee From America shared her adaptogen-rich concoctions on the ‘gram during her #caffeinefreeweek and the potions, for what they lacked in caffeine, were abundant in brain- and body-healing superfoods.

Cristen has been coming to Debbie since she was 9 years old! (never too young for deep relaxation!) She trusts Sleekskin Aesthetics with any stage of skin care challenges that she has experienced!

You can see the treatment working even after she left Sleekskin Aesthetics!

Why You Should Be Eating Cocoa For Breakfast

August 3, 2017 by debbiedavis

When you think chocolate you might not think healthy. When you think chocolate for breakfast, you might think bad breakfast choice!

Chocolate is not considered a breakfast food because when we think chocolate we think candy bars, treats, and rich, sugar-laden desserts.

But behind all the additional, not-so-healthy (albeit delicious) dessert ingredients there is cocoa.

And cocoa definitely deserves a place at the breakfast table.

Cocoa powder is produced when cocoa beans are roasted and milled into a powder. Note that cacao powder, different from cocoa, is raw and does not undergo the roasting step but is still processed into a powder. READ MORE
