You probably haven't taking good care of your skin during the hot and sunny Summer months. So, why not start the Autumn Season off by experiencing my beneficial Red Mountain Mud Treatment?  It will help leave your face, neck and shoulders with a healthy glow and smooth finish, while it helps to pull out toxins and cleanse your skin. 

Since Summer activities have also taken a toll on your body, start by exfoliating your skin with one of my Body Smoothers on a weekly basis.  Then, get in the habit of moisturizing on a daily basis after you shower or bathe.  For extra-rich benefits, experience my Conditioning Body & Massage Oil formula in the scent of your choice.   
 
And, to keep your body in tip-top-shape, consider investing in The Sanddune Stepper, Your Exercise Companion.   
  
Please feel free to contact me if you have any helpful hints or ideas, and I will include them in my Newsletters.

Sincerely, Dolores

Red Mountain Mud Treatment
 











Red Mountain Mud ARC

This naturally moisturizing and soothing mud is ideal for normal to dry skin types, and will leave your face and body with a healthy glow and smooth finish. Mined from the French Alps, the re-mineralizing properties include iron oxide, which gives it its natural color. Red mountain mud provides a high content of other minerals that aid in keeping skin healthy, radiant and full of life. Kaolin Clay possesses the ability to pull out toxins and help cleanse your skin, while the essential oil of Sage helps to reveal a healthy glow and even complexion.

Note: 
The ideal treatment for both men and women when used on your face, neck and shoulder areas creating the perfect pick-me-up for radiant skin. 

Idea:   Close your eyes and put a slice of cool cucumbers on your eyes to help reduce puffiness.  Take a 15 minute relaxing nap while the Treatment Mud is doing its beneficial work.

Autumn is the perfect time to experience scents, fabrics and comfort food that will make you think of deep, rich and earthy shades of warm orange, yellow, red, green and even deep burgundy, the colors of the foliage around you.  

Oriental fragrances, will remind you of the East where the ingredients can be exotic flowers, spices, woods and balsams releasing warmth, sensuality and smoldering intensity. 

Spicy and earthy notes of cinnamon, clove, coriander, amber and pepper will enhance a scent with warmth, depth and richness.  Both men and women love these very suggestive and sensual scents.

Candles in any of the above notes is an inexpensive way for you to feel warm and cozy in your home.  And, candles make great gifts. 

Cooking with clove, cinnamon or vanilla, will make everyone who enters your home feel so welcome.  How about adding some spice to your favorite pasta dish to liven your taste buds?

Starbucks Pumpkin
Spice Latte is back on their menu and McDonald's serves breakfast all day long which is comfort food for the masses.  These are sure signs that Fall has arrived. 
 
A pair of black jeans can be paired with a textured jacket over a silk blouse.  I know that you have a favorite jacket way in the back of your closet.  Dress it up with lots of bold jewelry, such as chains or pendants to make a statement for the Fall. 

Like most men and women, I love leather jackets and found a vintage style in a Thrift Shop for only  $20.00.  When the temperature gets really cold, most Thrift Shops will be selling heavy jackets so that is the time to look for that special "leather find".  In the desert, when it is 100+ degrees, I go shopping for leather items when everyone else is looking for shorts and tank tops.  Note: Look for clothes that are opposite the weather and temperature you are currently in.

Regarding your hair style, A side part is the way to go if you want to quickly update your hair and create a softer, more current look.  And, the cost is minimal, since you can do it yourself.

A wrap dress looks flattering and very up-to-date on everyone, and it is timeless.  Find one with a more textured look for the Fall.

Boots, boots, boots - men and women can never go wrong with a pair of boots - short, calf high or even rain boots.    Wear the boots with your jeans, long skirt, short skirt, dress pants, since boots are always in style. Note:  your boots do not have to match the color of your bag or briefcase. 

Most of us need a color touch-up on a regular basis, men & women.   I use Clairol's Root Control. It restores roots' color in 10 - 12 minutes & matches leading shades, even salon color.  

Mascara & Eye Liners - every magazine is featuring smoky eyes with lots of mascara - and very dark and bold eye liner.  Focusing on your eyes will help to brighten the whites of your eyes and create a more glamorous look, especially at night.
      
Hats for both men and women are definitely in style so wearing a hat while outdoors will not only help keep the harsh elements off of your face but your hair from fading, especially if you color your hair. 

Men, now is the time to have your Summer beard or mustache trimmed professionally
so you are ready for Holiday parties and a more refined work
appearance.   
 
NOTE:  Don't leave home without having a container of water with you.  I add a drop or two of lemon, orange or grapefruit juice squeezed from the actual fruit to liven up the water.
