Facial Machines & Creams

My face machine picks

For women out there who want to look amazing without paying the big bucks, I will tell you all about my favourite machines. You can use them from the convenience of your own home at the time you want.

1) Suzanne Somers’ Face Master with conductive solution. 

I cannot live without this machine. I use it every morning before my make-up; it’s like getting a workout at the gym but for your face. Your make-up goes on smoother and your eyes as well as jaw line start lifting. For women who have had a facelift, it just maintains everything. I use Suzanne Somers Organics Aqua Peptide Firming Eye Gel around the eyes in combination with her Organics Lip Wrinkle Cream around the mouth for lines on top of the lips. I then put the Face Master on feathering mode and the cream is absorbed much better into the skin. As we age, gravity sets in, especially over 45 years of age so this machine perfect to maintain the face. I use it everyday for half an hour to see great results but if that's too much for you, you can use it three to four times a week for twenty minutes each time.

2) The DermaWand

I start by putting my favorite cream then pass the DermaWand over and this targets large pores, fine lines and wrinkles. I use it in the area that bothers me more like the lines on top of the lips after I’ve applied Suzanne Somers Organics Lip Wrinkle Cream. You can use it around the eyes, on the forehead and even on your laugh lines. It’s also used to keep your face from collapsing. When I want a fast fix before an event, I use this machine and follow it up with the Face Master to really see the effect. It all depends on the time you have, but if I were you, I would try my best to make the time. If you do nothing about the way you look, you will age a great deal sooner. The more you use it, the softer your face will be. It has a different smell than most, the reasoning behind this is that its stimulating collagen on your skin with thermal energy. This helps reverse the signs of aging as much as possible!

3) The Nono Glow

This one should be used on a regular basis to make your creams sink in better as well as give you a better glow. You must use it regularly to see results. It has advanced light and heat energy technology. Slightly different from the DermaWand because it gives a lifting effect where as the Nono Glow gives a great glow and helps speed up the process to get rid of a pimple. Therefore what machine you want depends on what you want to target.

4) Laser FX

This machine is a little similar to the Nono Glow because they both make the creams sink in. This machine gives slight heat to the skin where as the Nono Glow gives hot and cold sensations to the skin. The laser FX has red light therapy and goes two to three millimeters underneath the skin, below the epidermis. It works the collagen inside out. This one too makes your creams sink in better. It’s a matter of choice. You either get this one or the Nono Glow.

 My picks on what creams to use in conjunction with the machines listed previously

1)   Suzanne Somers

As mentioned earlier, Organics Lip Wrinkle Cream, Organics Aqua Peptide Firming Eye Gel and Organics Anti-Aging Eye Cream.

2)   Caudalie

Premiere Cru The Cream targets all the signs of aging. A little pricy, but you don’t need to purchase anything else. Although their eye cream is amazing, you can even use this one around the eyes, which works just as well. I use this with the DermaWand and the Nono Glow.

If lines above the lips are bothering you, their Polyphenol C15 Anti-Wrinkle Eye and Lip Cream smooth’s them out as well.

3)   Bite Beauty

For my lips, I love their Whipped Cherry Lip Scrub and their Agave Lip Mask. I put them on at night before bed and my lips are extremely smooth the next morning. Your lips will look more soft and full. 


Final Thoughts 

Both Caudalie and Bite Beauty can be bought in store at Sephora if you don’t want to pay extra for shipping. 

Steer away from products that claim to give you instant results. You want to use products that are long term. The chemicals they use in instant ones are very bad because they disrupt a woman’s hormones, especially if you are in perimenopause or menopause, which is 35 years and on now a days.

You don’t have to be a movie star to get these treatments. You can do them in the convenience of your own home and at a fraction of the price. I give you the best of what I use so you don’t have to break your head like I did. I try to find the safest ingredients and yet still the most effective products. Women now want to look the best they can and why not? You only live once and who’s to say you can’t start at fifty?
