Love it! In Love As a chemotherapy patient I am not supposed to get a lot of sun exposure. This product is a godsend. I am already getting compliment on my complexion at the local center. It's a real challenge to keep your skin looking and feeling well during treatment and this product is amazing! I use it everyday and a little goes a long way! Thank you Nadine!!!!!! another brilliant product I know this is a new product, but it is a brilliant one to have, especially for those of us who are not outside enough. This is a supplement and a beauty product all at once...I love how Nadine advises us not to be afraid of the sun and emphasizes the importance of vitamin D and healthy sun exposure. I have slowly been getting away from sunblock and using more antioxidant foods, products like everyone loves the sunshine, and my skin is in better shape and I feel better. I have to thank everyone at Living Libations for really doing their research about what is best for the body...these are not just beauty products, these are products that speak to a much higher level of health and consciousness. Better skin is just the result of better health on every level. LOVE LOVE! nadine...YOU & this beautiful skin creme are MY sunshine! once again...absolute blissful perfection. just a dab does me perfectly under some ELS with zinc! Great for depression I used this as a last resort for my seasonal depression; I get really down in the winter. Since I tried it I have been doing so much better, and my face feels so moist and looks younger. I'm so excited, but I do tend to slather it on my face because I know it is good for my face and for my mood. Complete Genius! Of course, vitamin D on the skin is completely beneficial to any Canadian, especially during the winter months where we lack the Sun. This product is sublime. As a dark-skinned person, I have watched whitish patches on my skin fade. Dark skin people require more sunlight (aka vitamin D). I now take vitamin D internally too. This all makes complete sense! Thank you for this gift... Much Love to All!

Ingredients: Ascorbic Acid (highest quality Vitamin C) Freshwater Pearl Powder Grass-fed Colostrum American Ginseng Rhassoul Clay Pyrophyllite Clay Calcium Bentonite Clay (French Green Clay) Kaolin Clay (China White Clay) Organic Kelp Powder Meet The Creator : Andy Hnilo My name is Andy Hnilo, I am 32 years old and live in Los Angeles, CA. As a lifetime athlete, I excelled in baseball and football. Earned a baseball scholarship to UC Berkeley and turned down an opportunity to play professional baseball when I landed a role on daytime soap opera, “Days of our Lives.” Since then I've kept very busy with modeling and acting - most recently appearing on HBO’s “Hello Ladies.” Walked the runway for numerous clothing companies such as Calvin Klein, Levi's, Oakley, Speedo, and have shot over a dozen national commercials for companies like Michelob Ultra, Geico, Nike, Mizuno and most recently Coppertone. After getting hit and run over by two SUV’s, I thought my career may be over. However through nutrition and relentless hard work, I found myself in better shape physically and mentally because of it, working more than ever before. As an ex-athlete and model, I have always valued the importance of taking care of my body both internally and externally. However it wasn’t until after being involved in a serious car accident that I began to explore making my own skincare products and taking nutrition to the next level. My surgeons insisted that I use crèmes and serums that were loaded with synthetic ingredients and fragrances that I felt were counterproductive in the healing process. So I began to research all natural healing alternatives. Through my research I decided to make my own facial treatment mask that would not only leave you with radiant skin on the outside but it would heal and detoxify you from the inside as well. I have been a nutrition adviser for 10 years, helping people reach their physical goals by writing up diet plans and emphasizing the importance of proper nutrition.

Customer Reviews can be found on the Alitura Website. Here are a selection: Simply Amazing Kristina on Jun 06, 2014 Alitura is one of the best masks I've tried. This mask produces results equivalent to spa facials, all from the comfort of your own home. It deep cleans, tightens, and leaves your skin refreshed. Simply put....this mask is amazing! Great on aging skin! Sue H. on Jun 06, 2014 I use the Alitura Clay Mask once a week and love the results on my aging skin. It just feels so alive after the mask. I do use the ACV because I like the intensity of it. It just adds that extra zing. Andy, thanks for the care you have taken to select only the purest and most effective ingredients for your product. There is just nothing to compare it to. The perfect mask! Celestial on Jun 05, 2014 I was skeptical at first as every single clay-based mask I've EVER tried has dried out my skin. I assumed my skin was just too sensitive to handle the intense pore-cleansing properties of clay. However, after using Andy's mask for the first time my face didn't feel dry, at all. I thought it was a one-time miracle, must be a fluke...but after two months of twice weekly usage I've found it's no fluke. Not only does this mask deep clean my pores, but the tone of my skin is much more even and radiant and my monthly breakouts have significantly lessened in severity and duration. I mix it with organic milk (moisturizing and skin-lightening) and tone afterwards with a half water, half ACV spritzer. There's a reason every single review gives this mask 5 stars. It's not your ordinary clay mask--it's amazing! Best ever! Ramon Doria on Jun 04, 2014 I have used this product for over a month now and I have been addicted to it (like crossfit, LOL). The result is outstanding, it's almost like paleo. Seriously, this product is safe and all natural. I would recommend this to any one who wants only the best in life.... Life Changing Bruce Childs on May 30, 2014 Your hard work is finally paying off!! This mask is awesome. I've followed your advice for sometime now and actually seeing your dream and products come to life is amazing. I look forward to your other products that you have in the works. Thanks for giving me advice and guidance through my transformation to live a healthier lifestyle. My results have been seen not only by me but othrs have noticed as well. I can't thank you enough. note: always test a tiny portion of any product you purchase first to ensure it is right for you. Example: a dap on your wrist.

The 600 Titanium Microneedle Alitura Derma Roller The single best way to freshen up your appearance for the high performance lifestyle. The derma roller is the beauty industry’s best-kept secret. Benefits include: Boost collagen production* Reduce the visibility of scarring & premature skin aging* Combat stretch marks & cellulite* Reduce the appearance of large pores* Diminish the appearance of bags & dark circles under eyes* We offer 3 sizes: .25 mm – Beginner .5 mm – Intermediate 1 mm – Advanced Andy’s Tip: Replace Derma Roller used on the face after around 15-20 uses to keep treatment as effective as possible. What is a Derma Roller? Derma Rolling has been around for years, previously only used by prestigious dermatologists for anti-aging and beautification purposes. It is a secret amongst celebrities, actors and actresses but the secret is coming out! You can now utilize this amazing longevity and beauty tool in the comforts of your own home. Essentially, it’s a micro-needled roller. As you roll the microneedles across the surface of your skin, it creates micro-punctures along the dermis and epidermis skin layers. This evokes an acute inflammatory response, which stimulates the healing process, cell generation, blood and oxygen flow and thus renewed, healthier skin. The Science Behind Derma Rolling: Micro-wounding, Healing & Skin Regeneration When tissues in our bodies become injured, there is a natural inflammatory response that helps the body repair the injury. If an injury is severe, it can result in chronic inflammation, which causes the wound to heal imperfectly, resulting in scar tissue. A Derma Roller, like a massage, creates a very minor injury to the skin, which generates acute inflammation that can achieve perfect healing. The science behind Derma Rolling’s anti-aging abilities have much to do with this process. Through Derma Rolling, we can intentionally stimulate the healing process, which arouses skin cell regeneration and regrowth. It works on everything from acne, to severe skin scars that are already riddled with calcification and fibrosis. There are likely two mechanisms responsible for this: Calcification Regulation – One of the major benefits of Derma Rolling, and why I got into it, is its profound ability to healing scars. By intentionally inflicting micro-wounds to the skin, the process of calcification (scar tissue) is downregulated. Derma Rolling turns down what are known as “calcification inducers”, while increasing Growth Factor Beta 1 & 2, and also up-regulating calcification inhibitors. Together, this inhibits the further production of scar tissue, reverses it and promotes future healing. This is fantastic news for anyone with scarring issues, be it acne scarring or worse. Angiogenesis – Also known as the formation of new blood vessels and capillary networks that provide oxygen and nutrients to your skin cells; derma rolling aids in this process. This is hugely beneficial to the skin, considering that most aging issues of the skin (wrinkles, pigmentation, sagging) are caused by decreased oxygen and blood flow to the skin cells. But Derma Rolling reverses this process, helping the body produce new blood vessels, and providing starving skin cells with more blood, oxygen and nutrients. With these primary actions, Derma Rollers are scientifically proven to: Increase absorption of nutrients from your favorite skincare products – as you Derma Roll, blood circulation to the capillaries in your skin dramatically increases. Therefore, any moisturizers, serums or masks you use will work even better as the nutrients in them are driven to your skin cells. Make your skin younger – your skin will not only look younger; it will actually be younger on a cellular level. Microneedling leads to the release of growth factors which stimulate the formation of new collagen (collagen synthesis), and elastin in the papillary dermis. In other words, it renews your skin cells, creating younger, healthier, flawless skin. Regenerate new skin cells and blood vessels, it’s like a cellular makeover for your skin. Eliminate scar tissue, stretch marks, cellulite, and minimize pores – along with any other inflammatory issues of the skin, acne and other blemishes. Cleaning Your Derma Roller It is very important to sterilize your derma roller between uses. You can do so by using isopropyl alcohol or hydrogen peroxide; we recommend using isopropyl alcohol. Simply submerge your roller in a cup of alcohol for 1 to 5 minutes. You can then let it air dry or shake off the excess liquid prior to use. Titanium Derma Roller FAQ Which size do you recommend I use?

Love it! In Love As a chemotherapy patient I am not supposed to get a lot of sun exposure. This product is a godsend. I am already getting compliment on my complexion at the local center. It's a real challenge to keep your skin looking and feeling well during treatment and this product is amazing! I use it everyday and a little goes a long way! Thank you Nadine!!!!!! another brilliant product I know this is a new product, but it is a brilliant one to have, especially for those of us who are not outside enough. This is a supplement and a beauty product all at once...I love how Nadine advises us not to be afraid of the sun and emphasizes the importance of vitamin D and healthy sun exposure. I have slowly been getting away from sunblock and using more antioxidant foods, products like everyone loves the sunshine, and my skin is in better shape and I feel better. I have to thank everyone at Living Libations for really doing their research about what is best for the body...these are not just beauty products, these are products that speak to a much higher level of health and consciousness. Better skin is just the result of better health on every level. LOVE LOVE! nadine...YOU & this beautiful skin creme are MY sunshine! once again...absolute blissful perfection. just a dab does me perfectly under some ELS with zinc! Great for depression I used this as a last resort for my seasonal depression; I get really down in the winter. Since I tried it I have been doing so much better, and my face feels so moist and looks younger. I'm so excited, but I do tend to slather it on my face because I know it is good for my face and for my mood. Complete Genius! Of course, vitamin D on the skin is completely beneficial to any Canadian, especially during the winter months where we lack the Sun. This product is sublime. As a dark-skinned person, I have watched whitish patches on my skin fade. Dark skin people require more sunlight (aka vitamin D). I now take vitamin D internally too. This all makes complete sense! Thank you for this gift... Much Love to All!
