Beautify Your Winter Skin
Posted on Friday, November 09, 2012
As the sun fades and the winter winds starts, our skin has to adjust to the changing climate. Fortunately, with a little help from the tanning salon and dermatologist, you can keep your skin tip-top shape just in time for the holiday season. We know you work hard in the winter months preparing and planning, so here are a few Marula Beauty tips to add to your skin care treatment this season.
Facial and Chemical Peels are great around this time of year because sun exposure is lower. Excessive sun exposure will damage the new skin and work against what your peel was trying to accomplish. Because of the lower sun exposure in the winter, recovery is quick. Marula oil can be applied daily after the procedure in conjunction with a sunscreen. This locks in the moisture in the skin while the sunscreen protects it from the damage sun can cause. With more moisture, this skin will peel correctly, and moisturize the emerging skin to leave your face soft and glowing. Read more

Safe Sun 101: How to Maximize Your Skincare this Summer
Posted on Sunday, July 15, 2012
As summer cruises into the hotter and sunnier months, it’s important not to forget about taking care of your skin this season. Here are a few of our favorite Marula Beauty tips to keep your skin moisturized, healthy, and protected.
Your Mistake: Not applying often enough
An ABC (only applying during August, baseball games, and concerts) sunscreen regimen is not enough to fully protect your skin during the summer. Even if the sun doesn’t feel hot you are still being exposed to damaging rays. So skipping the sunscreen at your office patio party, while grilling on the deck on Saturday afternoon, or before you hit the outlet mall is causing more damage than you think.
Your enemies: Free Radicals
Free radicals penetrate the skin to attack healthy cells. The main sources of free radicals? Sun and pollution.
That’s where antioxidants come in; they can help protect the face from these sources. Marula oil contains Vitamin E and other high antioxidant powers that can help protect against free radicals and is an excellent source of topical antioxidants, the free radical fighting capability is very important for skin.

"YOU IS KIND, YOU IS SMART, YOU IS IMPORTANT"- YOU ARE MARULA BEAUTIFUL!
Posted on Friday, July 13, 2012
One of our favorite quotes that we love comes from the Oscar 2012 nominated movie "THE HELP". Mae Mobley is the young girl who is constantly criticized by her mother, and Aibileen is the caregiver of young Mae, who tries to counter the effect of this cruelty with a daily ritual of repeating these words: “YOU IS KIND, YOU IS SMART, YOU IS IMPORTANT.” Aibileen’s daily ritual made a positive impact on a small child whose confidence and self-esteem were in constant jeopardy by her mother’s actions. It is a testimony to how words can inspire and make a difference. Read more
