It's that time of year again...You know when you look outside and you look in your closet and you think, "man, can't hide in these big fuzzy sweaters much longer!"
 Well, this is when you get yourself in gear and get in motion.
 Start that new exercise routine, join a pilates group, grab a few new DVD's whatever but get committed and along with exercise there are a few things that have been around for centuries that can help out.

Organic Green Tea & Amla Weightloss Tea

I am about 100% sure you've heard of green tea.
Good for your skin, good for your body overall well being but is also a MAIN ingredient in several diet supplements.
For ages people have been using green tea to improve their health and maintain healthy weight margins. So it dawned on me...I love green tea (cold though I'm not a hot tea drinker lol) and so o lots of people so why is it that all these green tea drinkers aren't nice "healthy' weights.<p> Well, what your local grocer won't tell you is that the stuff that makes green tea FAB is called "catechins" and the higher the concentration of catechins the better the tea is for you. Improves bodily functions , including giving your metabolism a boost, and without it green tea is just "green", and you will not find the premium goods unless you know what to look for and where to find it (and now your search is over :-)



Now if you've read any of my postings on curlynikki.com about ayurveda or seen on the 'tube' or heard from a friend Amla is a staple of anyone (for the most part) who has integrated ayurveda into their life. But what you didn't know is that when taken internally Amla fruits act as a detoxifying agent AND helps with weightloss!!

Organic Amla Fruits

So with this powerful wealth of knowledge in hands we are proud to bring you our proprietary blend of organic(we love organic) DragonWell Tea, also known as Longjing which is a premium green tea reknowned for it's high level of catechins and Organic Amla Fruit (also known as Indian Gooseberry) to bring you our first signature loose tea blend for weightloss.

Full bodied, smooth and jam packed with the good stuff and for a limited time you get a 3" stainless steel tea infuser with ANY loose tea purchase (this also includes the Moringa loose tea blends as well.-no coupon code needed! )

FREE TEA INFUSER YAAY!!!

Okay so how you wash your face is just as important as what you're using on your face and here are a few simple steps to ensure you get the most from your wash as well as your toner and moisturiser.

Once you choose that ideal cleanser(raw african black soap is an excellent choice and i'm actually working on a liquid black soap facial cleanser with jojoba beads and acai- stay tuned for freebies on that one)

Raw African Black Soap from Butters-N-Bars.Com

remember the first thing to do is rinse your face well using WARM water. Never use cold or hot water to wash your fae. Hot water an ause excessive drying, and cold water 'shocks' your pores closed but warm water is the happy medium that gently opens pores without leaving them too open like hot water leading to dryness.

Ayurveda Pear Soap from B-N-B

So rinse well with warm water and then apply your cleanser. Lather and then apply the lather to your face. Particularly if you are using black soap!!! Never apply bars directly to your face just work up a lather and put it on i a gentle circular motion. This increases circulation and ensures that your cleanser can get in to do it's job.

Rosewater Toner

If you choose to exfoliate do it at this point. Remember regular exfoliation can help us to avoid chemical solutions like dermabrasion. A gentle exfoliation on a consistent basis will keep you glowing!
Move quickly through these steps, only exfoliate long enough to go over your face once over then over any trouble spots no more than twice. Facial skin is delicate (not to mention being the most visible part of your body!) so treat it with kindness :-)

Antioxidant Hydrating Souffle'

Rinse well with warm water , never cold or hot. You want those pores to stay open. Pat your face dry and apply toner(if desired) at this point. Again move quickly because you want to apply your moisturiser to skin that is still warm/moist and not cold. If you allow your pors to lose then what is your moisturiser going to do? Its going to sit on top of your skin leaving you in one of two conditions. Either looking like a greased monkey OR feeling dry again in a few hours as if you never even moisturised in the first place- neither one is ideal.


So follow these simple, easy steps to get the most out of your wash and BE BEAUTIFUL ;-D
