The Power of Bee Venom

The Transparent Clinic Bee Venom cream acts directly on the facial muscles producing an immediate lifting effect, smoothing and firming the skin. Diminishing fine lines and wrinkles, providing an exceptional regenerating and repairing effect to the skin.

Bee venom is extremely good at increasing blood flow in the skin. This improves circulation and brings more nutrients and oxygen to the cells which encourage cell regeneration. The surge of blood flow will stimulate collagen and elastin, the building blocks of our skin, to increase firmness over time. The subsequent production of collagen and elastin prevents the signs of ageing.

Bee Venom acts as a barrier against free radicals and relaxes facial muscle contractions leaving the skin firmer. It is especially beneficial to anyone who is going through the menopause and may notice deep wrinkles, puffiness and dryness of the skin which are just some of the symptoms brought on by hormone changes during this time of life.  During the menopause, levels of the female hormones oestrogen and progesterone drop rapidly leading to accelerated skin ageing.

  

Bee Venom (apitoxin) will also provide an anti-inflammatory and antibacterial function. It also prevents and treats acne, acting directly on Propionibacterium acnes bacteria linked to this skin condition, and has a great ability to regenerate damaged cells.

How does it work?  Well, the Bee Venom ‘tricks’ the skin into thinking it has been lightly stung with the toxin melittin.  This is the principal active component of apitoxin.  The effect causes the body to direct blood flow towards the area and stimulates the production of collagen and elastin.

Does it harm the bee? Most people ‘bee-lieve’ (pardon the pun!) that once the bee has ‘stung’ that it then dies, however the bee only dies when the lance (stinger) detaches from the body.   Modern methods ensure the Bee Venom is collected without harming the bee. 

Other ingredients are:  Honey Extract, Shea Butter and Grapeseed Oil.

Should not be used by anyone with an allergy to bees.   It is important to follow the application directions to ensure safe use of this product.

Free from parabens and mineral oils.

Hair Loss Home Treatment

Everyone loses hair. On average we lose between 50 to 100 hairs a day.  It's just a natural phase in the hair growth cycle and is barely noticeable.  However sometimes hair loss can be excessive, causes of which can be attributed to a number of factors, for example, certain medical conditions, strong medications or stress.   Of course there are also scalp conditions that can cause hair loss which should be more obvious.  You should regularly check that your scalp and hair are healthy. 

Hair has always been an important part of our appearance and is linked to self-esteem and self-confidence. Therefore it is logical and understandable that when excess hair loss occurs there can also be a dramatic psychological change.  Not only can hair affect how you perceive yourself but it also cause depression and emotional issues.

Hair Loss in Women

When we think of hair loss we generally don’t think of women losing their hair, however female hair loss is far more common than you would think.  The most common type of women's hair loss is androgenic alopecia and is most commonly seen after menopause.

Physical and emotional stress might cause hair loss since the body is recuperating from an overwhelming turmoil and simply shuts down hair production, thinking that it is not necessary for the body's survival, thereby contributing all energy toward repairing vital body parts. There can be up to three months delay between the major incident and the actual hair loss. Moreover, there is also period of three months before the lost hair is replaced. This then means there is a total of a minimum of 6 months for the total hair loss and re-growth cycle complete.

Focus on Cellulite: XS Body Contour Cream

Now that the colder months are upon us, the majority of us increase the chance of developing or worsening cellulite issues through the lack of physical activity, wearing snug fitting clothing and of course eating increased amounts of fattening foods.   

To spite the winter weather, and the urge to down tools and hibernate, try Oxynergy Paris XS Body Contour cream.   

This innovative and refreshing cream helps to reduce the presence and appearance of cellulite on the hips, thighs and buttocks effectively and quickly.  It accelerates the fat burning process and drainage of fluid. Key active ingredients include caffeine, proline, hyaluronidase and lipase.

XS Contour Body Cream

Caffeine is one ingredient that almost every cellulite reducing product contains.  It helps blood flow to the skin and acts like a diuretic.  Removing moisture from the skin gives a positive firming and toning effect. 

Proline is an amino acid, key in maintaining healthy skin and essential in the formation of collagen.

Hyaluronidase is an enzyme that dissolves hyaluronic acid, a component of the connective tissue bands that create the dimpled appearance of cellulite.

To use, apply the cream to cleansed skin and massage gently until completely absorbed.  Application can be repeated morning and night.
