Time For Rejuvenation....
When was the last time you really took some time out for yourself to TOTALLY and completely TUNE OUT the world? To relax, to mentally unwind and rejuvenate your body and soul? Too Long? That is precisely where the Arbonne Sea Source Detox Spa line comes in. Designed to replicate a Spa experience at home, these products really do create total, lasting relaxation and rejuvenation. Step in and experience your own spa at home!!! You will love it.
NutriminC - Amazing Faces
This client used the Arbonne NutriminC line on the left hand side of her face only. These results are after 3 weeks. I've used this line for 2+ years and it has totally transformed my skin. Even my dermatologist on my first consultation thought I was 10 years younger~ no complaints!!
I TOLD You This Stuff Works Wonders.
These feet show what a difference the Arbonne Body Duo (Serum and Lotion) can make to dry, cracked, painful skin. Amazing. Additionally, the Intelligence Skin Conditioning Oil would be a great benefit here for really enhancing the healing.
This May Wow You.
Sorry about the "mini" version here folks, but I had to get this photo up. This woman used our NutriminC Body Duo, a Serum and a Body Lotion, and look at the difference!! This duo continually earns RAVES from men and women all over the country for it's healing properties and soothing feel. If you are experiencing dry winter skin, or just got back from the tropics with a bit too much tan, you will fall in love with this stuff! I promise!!
Another Acne Success Story.
The above photos are before and after 2 Weeks of using the Arbonne Clear Advantage line and the Intelligence line Thermal Fusion Masque (which is PHENOMENAL!! I love it!).
Treat Acne From the Inside Out.
The top photo is the "AFTER" photo, and the bottom photo is the "Before" photo shot prior to the client using Arbonne's Clear Advantage acne line. The Clear Advantage line uses Pure Safe and Beneficial ingredients, including Salicylic Acid, as opposed to Benzoyl Peroxide, which is far more harsh and drying to the skin.
While most acne products just target the outer surface of the skin, the Clear Advantage system works both externally and internally to support healthy looking skin.* A combination of ingredients known to help with troubled skin, Arbonne’s Clear Advantage Skin Support
Formula works from the inside to keep your skin looking its best.* Vitamins and
minerals, the amino acid L-Lysine and Arbonne’s proprietary herbal blend make
this product unique and different.

Some Baby Products Have Harmful Chemicals
Below is an article from the Dallas Morning News discussing the potentially hazardous chemicals in some popular baby products. Always important to know what you put ON the skin. The skin is the body's largest organ and ANYTHING applied topically can permeate the skin and enter the bloodstream.
"Some children's bath products hazardous, groups say
By Carlene Olsen, Cox News Service/New York Times News Service
Dallas Morning News
February 9, 2007
WASHINGTON - Some children's bath products contain a suspected cancer-causing chemical in amounts that reach or exceed recommended limits, environmental groups charged Thursday.
Johnson and Johnson, Disney, Kimberly-Clark, and Gerber are among the makers of 15 children's products that contain 1,4-dioxane, David Steinman, head of the environmental publishing company Freedom Press, said at a news conference.
The petroleum-derived chemical is classified by the Environmental Protection Agency as a probable human carcinogen, and the National Toxicology Program considers it a known animal carcinogen, according to the Environmental Working Group, which also took part in the news conference.
In 2000, the Food and Drug Administration recommended that cosmetic companies limit the concentration of 1,4-dioxane in products to 10 parts per million. But the FDA does not regulate cosmetics, leaving companies to monitor the safety of their products on a voluntary basis.
Steinman said a study he commissioned from the West Coast Analytical Service lab in Santa Fe Springs, Calif., showed that Hello Kitty Bubble Bath, made by Kid Care, contained 12.3 ppm of 1,4-dioxane. Johnson's Kids Shampoo Watermelon Explosion, made by Johnson and Johnson, contained the maximum recommended level of 10 ppm, he said.
In addition, two adult shampoos tested by the lab found twice the recommended level of the chemical, he said.
The Environmental Working Group, meanwhile, said it had conducted a computerized assessment of ingredients in 15,000 cosmetics and other personal care products which shows that 1,4-dioxane may be present in 57 percent of all baby soaps.
Iris Grossman, director of communications at Johnson and Johnson, said, "It's important to stress that all our products are within the FDA limits."
The chemical is typically a manufacturing by-product, which companies are not required to list on labels along with ingredients, said Grossman. "And our suppliers guarantee that (levels) are within the FDA limit," she said.
At the news conference, medical experts said that bath products could be linked to other children's health problems.
Research suggests a link between ingredients in common bath products and early puberty development in children, said Devra(cq) Davis, director of the Center for Environmental Oncology at the University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute.
Children's fast-paced growth rate and porous skin increases their susceptibility to toxins that can enter the bloodstream through the skin's surface, Davis said.
Jeanne Rizzo, executive director of the Breast Cancer Fund, said that "an increased risk of breast cancer is linked to toxic exposure that occurs in the most vulnerable period of our lives."
Arbonne Baby Care Line, From a Doctor's View
Below is a copy of a letter discussing the Arbonne Baby Care line, from Dr. Kala Sigler in OK.
Becki Barns, ENVP
Arbonne International
Dear Becki-
I have been practicing pediatrics for fifteen years. General skin care, rashes, and the very common skin problem, eczema, are all a large part of the practice of pediatrics. Until recently, I recommended a mild liquid cleanser and lotion of the parents’ choice, as long as they avoided fragrances. For eczema, I recommended a heavy cream or lotion that was quite occlusive. These were either mineral oil or petroleum-based. In addition, topical steroids were frequently necessary. In recent years, two non-steroid creams have come available for the treatment of eczema, and I have relied heavily on these. I dramatically changed my recommendations for skin care several months ago.
I was introduced to the Arbonne Baby Care products quite by accident. I was aware that they were available, but had no intention of using or suggesting their use until I began to learn more about the deleterious effects of mineral oil on the skin. Still unconvinced, it took seeing a patient of mine who has eczema make a dramatic improvement off of the medications I had prescribed, using only the Arbonne Baby Care products. Seeing this child no longer require topical steroids or Elidel, I became convinced to give it a try. After seeing dozens of children with horrible skin use these products and see drastic improvements, I can unreservedly recommend them. I have seen child after child no longer require topical steroids or Elidel. I have seen child after child go from having rough, itchy, easily irritated skin, to having soft and smooth skin. I have had only two children out of the literally dozens that I have recommended the product to in the last four months who have not seen an improvement. While this is certainly not a double bind, placebo controlled, multi-center trial, it has been more than enough to change my practice recommendations. These results are personal experience in my practice, and Arbonne cannot guarantee that everyone who uses these products will see the same results, but I am personally very impressed with the results.
My routine recommendation is to wash the child (of any age, not just infants) with the Arbonne Baby Care
I not only wholeheartedly recommend these products to my patients; I make them available to them in my office. Seeing the tremendous results that I have, I feel that I could do nothing but this.
Sincerely,
Kala Haiduk Sigler, MD, FAAP
