HOW DOES IT WORK?

This versatile, clinically proven LED device harnesses dual wave red (633nm) and infrared (830nm) light technology to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and new, superficial scarring such as acne scarring and stretch marks.

Red LED light stimulates the body’s own processes to increase cellular energy, powering your skin cells to renew and repair much quicker. Accelerating this natural process repairs damaged muscles, reduces inflammation and rejuvenates your complexion.

Infrared light is absorbed by wound healing cells to generate new, healthy skin. It continues to work even when the device is switched off too, by sending nutrients and oxygen to your skin cells and contributing to their ability to regenerate over time.

PROFESSIONAL TECHNOLOGY

We’ve worked with Omnilux, the global leaders of professional LED technology, to develop the CURRENTBODY skin LED Precision. Our device harnesses the same medical grade LED light therapy used by doctors and salons worldwide.

The device delivers clinically proven wavelengths to deliver the same efficacy as professional Omnilux LED treatments.

HOW TO USE

Step 1: Cleanse your skin and pat dry.

Step 2: Exfoliate to ensure optimum light penetration.

Step 3: Place the device over the treatment area. The device will beep after 3 minutes to signal the end of the treatment session. You can then move onto another treatment area if desired.

If you wish to treat your whole face, divide your face up into 10 sections to conduct a 30 minute treatment.

Use for 3-5 days a week for 8 weeks for the best visible results.

WHY WE LOVE IT

The CURRENTBODY skin LED Precision gives you a versatile range of treatment options. Its handheld, ergonomic design lets you treat a range of concerns on the face and body, including fine lines, wrinkles, stretch marks, superficial scars and acne scarring.

7 Foods For Better Skin

7 Foods For Better Skin

What we put inside of our bodies is just as important (if not way more important) than what we put ON our bodies. Consuming a healthy diet of fresh fruits, vegetables, and healthy fats is super important for good skin. According to scientists, these 7 foods for better skin can dramatically improve all kinds of skin conditions including eczema, dry skin, sagging skin, and acne prone skin.

Consume These 7 Foods For Better Skin!

#1. Fatty Fish

Fatty fish such as salmon, mackerel, and herring are rich in Omega-3 fatty acids which can help keep skin hydrated, and reduce inflammation. These types of fish are also rich in Vitamin E, which is one of the most important antioxidants for your skin. Especially for those suffering from auto-immune diseases such as psoriasis, a diet comprised of fatty fish can make a big difference!

#2. Avocados

Avocados, like fatty fish, are also packed full of beneficial fats and vitamins C and E which are super important for clear, healthy skin. They are also known to protect the skin from harmful UV rays, as well a build collagen (which is the main structural protein helping your skin stay taut and strong).

#3. Nuts & Seeds

Nuts and seeds are one of the best foods you can consume for clear, healthy skin. Walnuts for example, are high in fatty acids, making them on of the best nuts to consume for brighter, clearer skin.

Sunflower seeds are an excellent source of good-for-your-skin nutrients such as vitamin E, zinc, and selenium.
#4. Sweet Potatoes

Sweet potatoes contain beta-carotene which protects your skin from sun exposure, making it an excellent vegetable for those with skin sensitivity. They’re also a good source of vitamin A which is great for preventing sagging skin and wrinkles.

#5. Red and Yellow Bell Peppers

Just like sweet potatoes, red and yellow bell peppers contain beta-carotene which protects the skin. Bell peppers are also one of the best sources for vitamin C which prevents premature aging.

#6. Broccoli

Broccoli is packed full of vitamins and minerals such as zinc, vitamin A, and vitamin C. It also contains lutein, which protects your skin from oxidative damage, and therefore prevents wrinkles and sagging skin.

#7. Tomatoes

Tomatoes contain beta-carotene, lutein, and lycopene which all protect the skin against sun damage. They also contain vitamin C which is super important for cell regeneration.

Treating and Preventing Ingrown Hairs

Ingrown hairs, those unsightly little bumps on the skin, happen to just about everyone—and they’re universally unwelcome. These common blemishes often show up in the most uncomfortable places, such as the armpits or bikini area, after a fresh shave. But don’t let them stress you out. Ingrown hairs are normal and benign, and you can treat them with a few simple methods, or prevent them altogether with a careful skin-care routine.

How Ingrown Hairs Form

When shaved hair grows back from the follicle, it has a sharp tip that usually curls a bit at the end when the hair is fully grown. When the pointy tip of the hair grows back into the skin, it causes a distinctively rounded, discolored bump to appear. These little bumps may occur in clusters, and each bump sometimes sports a pinpoint of hair in its center or a harmless, pimple-like bump. Because coarse, sharp-tipped hairs are more likely to become ingrown, you’ll most often spot ingrown hairs in recently shaved, waxed or plucked areas.

Preventing Ingrown-Hair Formation

Those with thicker hair are more susceptible, but ingrown hairs happen to almost everybody. To prevent their formation, wet your skin thoroughly with warm water before shaving to help soften hair. When shaving, use a lubricating cream or gel and always shave in the direction of the hair growth to prevent the hair from growing back into your skin. If you use an electric razor, don’t press it up against the skin, and shave in a circular motion. No matter what type of razor you use, leaving just a millimeter or two of stubble helps ward off ingrown hair. Though they come with a much greater investment, laser hair removal and electrolysis procedures serve as more intensive, longer-term solutions.

Options for Treating Ingrown Hairs

If left alone, ingrown hairs often fade away on their own, but you can easily nudge the process along a bit. If ingrown hairs become inflamed or irritated, gently cleanse the area with an exfoliating wash.

This treatment has been clinically proven and is frequently recommended by healthcare professionals whose clients are seeking help for their acne problems.
I have not used a light therapy system before, but I do remember a dermatologist saying it was very effective. At the time, and this is some years ago when I was a teenager, it was an expensive method so I am pleased to see a range of products that are more affordable and that you can use at home.

Scientists have proven that blue light with a wave length of 415nm can kill acne causing bacteria, without damaging the skin whatsoever.

All you need to do is stick the patches to your skin, switch the Lustre Pure Light Pro on and you’re ready to go.

All you need is 20 minutes wear per day for 8-12 weeks, and your skin will be left clearer and smoother.

Some people even see results in as little as 4 weeks.

WHY WE LOVE IT

If it’s good enough for celebrity doctor to the stars, Dr Hilary Jones, it’s good enough for us.

Plus, it’s endorsed by leading UK acne clinics too!We love that this device is hands free, and that you can get on with other things whilst you’re using it.

Plus, once you’re finished with the 12 week course, you can use it for any sudden outbreaks too.

Samsung Announces Health-Focused Galaxy Watch3 Smartwatch

Electronics giant Samsung recently held their virtual “Galaxy Unpacked” event where they announced the latest upgrades to their popular mobile devices. Along with phones, tablets, and earbuds, Samsung unveiled the newest version of their smartwatch, the Galaxy Watch3.

The Watch3 has several new features and upgrades that make it a worthy competitor to the Apple Watch, but perhaps where it stands out this year is its emphasis on health management.

Like other smartwatch, the Galaxy Watch3 contains an accelerometer, gyroscope, and optical sensors to monitor your heart rate, track your workouts and exercises, analyze your sleep, and monitor for falls.

The new wearable also features an ECG and a pulse oximeter that will monitor and track SpO2 (blood oxygen concentration) as well as VO2 max (maximum oxygen consumption), although Samsung says these will stay disabled until a software update later this year.

Most interestingly, the Galaxy Watch3 is also one of the few devices we’ve come across that has the ability to perform cuffless blood pressure measurements. This feature, while not yet cleared by the FDA in the United States, has been approved in South Korea and implemented in a previous Samsung smartwatch.

The watch measures blood pressure via pulse wave analysis using data coming from the heart rate sensors. However, this method requires an initial calibration with a traditional cuff, as well as a recalibration every four weeks. Through this indirect method of blood pressure measurement has been known for many years now, developers have been unable to achieve an accuracy that would approach traditional cuff-based devices in all patients.

Samsung Electronics announced today that the Samsung Health Monitor app, which helps you monitor your health and encourages you to reach your wellness goals, will soon be available across 31 new countries.

Body Devices Are the New Face Tools⁠—These Are the 10 Worth Buying

For a long time, our faces have been reveling in our dedicated attention. But what about our bodies and the Body Devices.

Nowadays, there are potent body products that take inspiration from the actives we slather on our complexions, so it was only a matter of time before body tools leaped onto our radar.

After all, we’ve been pretty obsessed with LED masks and jade rollers for awhile—why should our bodies be left out of the conversation?

Unsurprisingly, e-tailer Cult Beauty has noted a leap in sales of body tools by 175.78% YoY, with millennials being the group most likely to snap up a body tool.

“Hyper-informed consumers armed with extensive research on the latest professional salon treatments are looking to harness this technology in their homes,” notes Cult Beauty founder, Alexia Inge.

When it comes to body tools, consumers are looking at the old and new Body Devices.

The team at Cult Beauty notes, “They are going both ways: very high tech and sophisticated salon at-home products or ancient remedies, with the rise of precious stones like rose quartz, amethyst and obsidian and Gua Sha in various stones.

There is also a marriage of old and new—a vibrating roller using stone, for example.”

The main areas for body tools are at-home treatments, tools for hair removal and toning, body makeup, and also tools aimed at relaxation.

Below we’ve rounded up the 10 best body tools worth trying.

This nifty microcurrent device smooths and firms areas like the butt, upper arms, tummy, and thighs.

If you use it every day for five minutes on each area you want to treat and stick at it for 60 days, the results are pretty impressive.

But you shouldn’t rely on a gadget 100%. The gym will keep your muscles and heart strong and healthy, and the body is just the icing on the cake.
