GliSODin Open House

Just a reminder that we will be getting the fabulous GliSODin line in the middle of January and we are planning an Open House for those of you who are interested in learning more about the product. We will have one of GliSODin's co-founders, Corina Chrysler, coming in to the spa to discuss the benefits of the product as well as answer any questions you may have. Corina is a leading Canadian Nutritionist who has worked closely with Health Canada. Health Canada has one of the most stringent approval policies in the world, making Corina an expert on what can help your body and what can hurt it. We are so excited for this opportunity and we cannot wait to share this fantastic product with our clients. We will have more details about the Open House closer to the event, but be sure to mark the night of January the 19th off on your calendars!
Sincerely,
Skindulgence

GliSODIN Advanced Detox Formula Reviews

The Spa Divas have all started taking the GliSODin Advanced Detox Formula but started on different days. Here is their progress so far:

Paige (Day 1): I took my first packet of GliSODin this morning at around 9:00 after eating a tiny bowl of cereal. I know I wasn't supposed to eat before I had the drink but I was so hungry I completely forgot. The drink in itself wasn't the best tasting thing I've ever had and the smell left something to be desired. I would have preferred it to be in a pill form like the other GliSODin formulas. It is now 1:30pm and I usually start to crash around this time but I have way more energy than normal and was even dancing around in the kitchen. I will not be following the nutrition directions to the T, since it is Christmas time after all but I'll do my best to cut out white sugar and white flower and up my daily fruit/veg intake.

Ayeshe (Day 5): Even after five days I still am not used to the taste but luckily it doesn't last long. I have followed the nutrition suggestions very closely, as well as continuing near daily exercise and I have lost around 3 lbs!

Heather (Day 5): I don't mind the taste, I like that it's not sweetened with anything but natural flavours. I have done many cleanses this year so I didn't think I'd have a lot of toxins to remove. I was a bit sluggish the first couple of days but now I can really feel the energy hit me. I've also noticed that I have been sweating a little bit more which is my body ridding itself of toxins.

Experimenter #3

Name: Ayeshe
Age: 37
Approximate weight: 128
Skin type: Combination
Initial thoughts on GliSODin: This is my first detox but I am not worried about it. I trust Taz and I know she researches her products carefully. It helps knowing that she has done it before and I can go to her with questions if I need to.
After reading about it: Interesting! I have never seen or heard of anything like this before, I am excited to try it.
Looking forward to: Health benefits such as weight loss and cleansing my systems.

Experimenter #2

Name: Rose
Age:
20
Approximate Weight: 110 lbs
Skin type: Combination (oily and dry)
Initial thoughts about Glisodin: Skeptical about the drinkable powder format (would rather take a pill), a little nervous (I have never tried a detox/cleanse before) and a little worried about the weight loss (I don't want to lose any more weight!).
After reading about it: SOD is an amazing antioxidant!
Looking forward to: More energy and clearer skin!

Test Subject #1

At Skindulgence we believe in standing behind our products 100% and knowing exactly how they work. We are bringing in a brand new, exciting product called GliSODin. For more information on the product you can read the blog entry below or visit their website here.

Four of the Spa Divas are testing out the Advanced Detoxification Formula and one is using the Advanced Skin Brightening Formula (and has already tried the Detox).

Let's meet our first experimenter:

Name: Paige
Age: 20
Skin type: Very fair, acne prone and combination skin
Approximate weight: 122 lbs
Initial thoughts on GliSODin: Admittedly a bit skeptical but also very curious. Not too sure about detoxs in general (I've heard scary things!) but willing to try it for the sake of science and our clients.
After reading about it: A little less skeptical... But the proof is in the pudding. Slightly horrified by the healthy eating plan as I basically run on white sugar and pasta. Buuut I'm willing to try to follow the guidelines as closely as possible (at least I can eat pasta and as many avocadoes as I want!) since it's only two weeks.
Most looking forward to: clearer skin, less water retention and a cleansed liver for the holidays. ;)

Photos of the experimenters will be up shortly!

Sincerely,
Skindulgence

Exciting New Product!

Around this time of year when the temperature drops and skin tends to get dry, flakey and dull the best thing you can do for your skin is to redesign your skincare regimen to fit the season. This means investing in a incredibly hydrating face cream (even those of us with oily skin need added moisture, both GM Collin and Yonka stock products that are effective for all skin types) and a soothing yet effective exfoliant such as GM Collin's Exfozyme.

But sometimes we need an added kick to keep our skin -and our bodies - energized and refreshed. Skindulgence is proud to introduce GliSODin Skin Nutrients*, a revolutionary nutricosmetic. "Nutricosmetics" is a term for ingestible products that help provide nutrients to the skin which increases overall quality of your skin.

We will be carrying the following three formulas:

1) The Advanced Daily Formula:
Rejuvenates and hydrates the skin to restore a natural healthy glow
Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
Reduces the signs of aging and protect the skin and body from damaging radicals.
Reduces inflammation that causes flaky dry skin and skin rashes and redness
Maintains structural integrity of skin and collagen

2) The Advanced Skin Brightening Formula:
Reduces oxidative stress and minimizes skin damage associated with environmental stressors
Reduces post inflammatory hyper pigmentation
Supports the beneficial effects of facial skin resurfacing treatments
Reduces the incidence of side effects associated with facial skin resurfacing treatments

3) The Advanced Detoxification Formula:
Cleanses the eliminative pathways (liver, digestive, skin, kidneys)
Removes toxins to promote clear and radiant skin
Assists with weight loss
Optimizes gastric transit time and relieve digestive upsets/disturbances.
Promotes liver detoxification and acts as a powerful free radical scavenging agent
Controls water retention

If you're looking to improve your skin and overall health, GliSODin is for you. Currently four of the Spa Divas are trying out the Advanced Detoxification Formula and our very own Tazeem Jamal is starting to use the Advanced Skin Brightening Formula after completing the Advanced Detoxification Formula. The detox is a two week system and over the next 14 days we will update you on our progress. Once it is completed we will give you our final review and Taz will give you the scoop on the Skin Brightening Formula.

At Skindulgence we feel it is our duty to provide only the best products and one way of ensuring this is through testing the products ourselves. Tazeem can attest to the effectiveness of the Advanced Detoxification Formula but we want to provide as many testimonials as possible so that you can feel as confident as we do that our products are of the highest quality and performance.


Sincerely,
Skindulgence
