Passionate About Skin Care

You may be looking at the above title and scratching your head, wondering if I’ve lost my marbles! But what good is Skin Care Beauty – having great looking skin…. if you hate your body shape!

Let me explain where I am going with the above statement. I’ve put a lot of time and effort over the past few months pampering my face with a Skin Care Beauty routine, and taking great care to make sure I was using the best product for my skin type. Hence the switch to using certified organic skin care products, to get the best results from my daily skin care routine, resulting in a noticable improvement.  But due to the everyday demands, that we as women endure, my exercise routine had somehow disappeared out the door.

You are what you eat!

Heard that saying before? I bet you have! Well I have discovered that to be pretty true, especially when you start to get into the more mature age group. You can get away with so much more when you are younger. But these days, I find that what I eat, especially if it’s ‘junk’, or even just sugary, seems to reflect almost immediately in my ‘body shape’. Just over twelve months ago I took very specific measures – regular diet and exercise, and got back to a weight, and body shape I was happy with. So for me, researching ways to achieve a better Skin Care Beauty was a natural follow up to my ‘new found’ slimness. Now I’m not saying you all have to do the same, but for me, it was important to keep and look fit. But after reaching my ‘perfect weight’ I slacked off and stopped being so consious of what I was putting into my mouth, and gradually the weight started to slip back on.

What was the answer?

So here I was improving my skin, but at the same time, was becoming less satisfied with my body shape again. That’s when I saw an ad on television for a certain type of exercise equipment. So deciding that this was my answer, I ordered one. Now I have read all the ‘good, bad and ugly’ stories on the internet about this exercise machine, and so here’s my thoughts on the subject. I decided to give it a go, and test out the promises they say their exercise equipment will achieve for you.

How to Procranstinate

For about three months after getting my exercise equipment, I found excuses not to use it much – no time, too tired, too busy, rather be outside, and the list goes on and on and on! Anyway, exactly ten days ago, I made a commitment to myself to use my exercise equipment every morning and every night for ten minutes. What’s more, I decided to document it in my diary, kind of to make myself accountable. Well, I have to tell you, that after five days I started to notice the muscles in my back firming up. So that inspired me to try a little harder, and so for the past three days, I have done fifteen minutes in the morning and again at night. I honestly am noticing an improvement daily, but will be very interested to take note of the results after using it regularly for thirty days.

Be an overcomer!

Some other people have mentioned a few problems with this exercise equipment, like being hard on your knees, but I found a way to overcome that by sticking some foam padding on the knee pads.  I did initially have a problem with slipping, but with a bit of practice, I stay on much better now. Sometimes it just takes a little thought and determination to overcome obstacles. So if this exercise equipment turns out to be an answer to keeping fit and toned, it will certainly compliment my Skin Care Beauty routine, as I will feel an all round satisfaction with both body shape and the state of my skin from using my certified organic skin care products. Of course sensible diet also goes along with exercise, and good skin care routines, for that ‘whole wellbeing’ feeling.

So, having just completed day ten of using this exercise equipment, I am looking forward to bringing you progress reports of how I am going, or should I say how my body shape is going, over the next couple of weeks. Hopefully I will be able to report a great success!

Until next time – cheers!
