The key to achieving a dreamy complexion is taking care of your skin every day. so we have five ways to help you do that. 1. Always Remove Makeup Before Bed It’s well known that skin rejuvenates itself during a good night’s sleep. However, when you leave makeup on, you prevent that from happening. This is particularly true for makeup that contains oily substances, which can accumulate in pores and disrupt skin’s natural balance — often inviting more acne and blackheads. Therefore, it’s crucial to cleanse skin thoroughly each night, allowing it to breathe and restore itself. 2. Use a Gentle Cleanser – “Cleanse” We all want a complexion that’s as smooth as butter. But using harsh cleansers can do more harm than good. When you lather up with a cleanser that’s too strong, it can strip away your skin’s natural barrier function, leaving it vulnerable to all sorts of external irritants. Not only that, but it can also leave your skin feeling as dry as the Sahara. That’s why it’s crucial to choose a gentle cleanser that works with your skin type. By opting for a milder option, you’ll be giving your skin the TLC it deserves. beU Manuka cream Cleanser is effective for all skin types. This cream Cleanser, with a fine, soft texture, fully dissolves makeup from the face and eyes and efficiently removes impurities without drying skin, leaving behind a silky finish. https://www.beautyforyou.co.nz/beu-manuka-cream-cleanser/ 3. Apply a Serum to Target Specific Skin Concerns “Restore” The beauty of Serums is that depending on what area you want to address, there is a serum to tackle your needs. If signs of premature aging, such as fine lines and sagging skin troubles you, then – anti-aging serum is what we recommend. When looking for the best match for your skin type and concern, pay attention to the ingredients, such as ultra-hydrating Jojoba, Argan and pure Rose oils in our beU Jojoba Anti Aging Serum.

Feng Shui And Colour Psychology – Discovering The Meanings Of Colours Everyone appreciates the benefits of beautiful, comfortable living environments; However, Feng Shui takes the approach that your surroundings affect not just your level of material comfort but also your physical and mental health, your relationships, and your worldly success. Feng Shui (pronounced “fung shway”) examines how the placement of things and objects within it affect the energy flow in your living environment, and how these objects interact with and influence your personal energy flow. Your personal energy flow affects how you think and act, which in turn affects how well you perform and succeed in your personal and professional life. Feng Shui affects you every moment of the day — whether you’re aware of it or not. As you begin to discover more about Feng Shui, remember that you need to have an open mind and should use the methods that are most comfortable for your particular circumstances. If you don’t know much about Feng Shui – learning about the Colours in Feng Shui is a good place to start. Colour is used as the basis for many theories and Feng Shui, colours affect the energy of rooms, your habitat and your clothes. Colours are one of the most essential and significant features of Feng Shui. RED – Fame – Reputation – Red Fire – it is no surprise that in the colours of Feng Shui, Red is one of the most important colours – it is a symbol of joy, fun and happiness, the colour of active action! Red has a fairly strong influence on the human body – as the spiritual and the physical realm. Red is intense, represents the element of fire and is considered lucky. It is bold and daring. It should be avoided by people who are anxious or overactive and is certainly not a good colour in the bedroom for insomniacs. RED – a symbol of passion, the personification of courage, power, beauty and brightness. Red is the ideal colour if you wish to draw attention, but avoid red if you are nervous or self-conscious – just add a little as an accessory – don’t overdo it. When wearing...

How does your Season/Colours change as you age? What happens when your hair goes grey? What happens as your skin becomes lighter? Do you start out as one Season and then change? Can you Change from this Summer Palette …. to the opposite Winter Palette? Or this Spring Palette…. to the opposite Autumn Palette? The answer is NO. The Skin undertone and Season you were born with is the one you will always have. The only issue would be if you had been incorrectly analyised in the first place. As colour analysis has evolved over the past twenty plus years or so – you may have been analyised, because of the limitations of the system/process at the time of your original analysis, incorrectly. This does not mean your season has changed – it just that the new systems are far more advanced in making a correct analysis. With Colour by Dezine® you cannot be a mixture of two seasons – your colours are selected according to your personal SKIN, HAIR AND EYE COLOUR – this is what makes our system unique – Your personal palette of Colours is prepared personally for you! No Pre-made palettes – we have over 15,000 possible combinations of palettes in our system. Changing your colour preferences (through the years) is normal – as sometimes as we age we may feel the need to leave certain (usually the brighter and darker) colours behind us, and stick with the softer colours in our personal palette. However, you can still use these brighter and darker colours for “Accents” to great effect! Just because you are getting a little older it is definitely not necessary to abandon your favorite Brights and Darks in your palette ! However, having said that … it is a fact that our skin tone does change as we age, but it does not change our season. Using the softer colours close to your skin will certainly flatter. As we age the level of contrast in our skintone, the softening of hair colour – with the reduction of pigmentation or going grey, and the depth of...
