Germaine de Capuccini has created CELLULESS SYSTEM, an innovative treatment that prevents and combats even the most stubborn cellulite on all fronts as simple as 1, 2, 3.
After the Germaine de Capuccini Starting Protocol, prepare the skin and activate circulation by applying ACTIVE SCRUB Body Exfoliant (with previously moistened hands) using gentle, circular lissages on the whole body. Moisten your hands as needed. Remove the product by swiping the sandy particle with a dry towel. (15 minutes)
Activate circulation and lipolysis. With the client lying face down, spread LIPO-DRAIN Body Serum – using upward lissages on the legs, buttocks, and back – until it is totally absorbed. Then carry out movements inspired by Shiatsu on both legs. Ask the client to face up and apply the LIPO-DRAIN Body Serum using upward lissages on the abdomen, legs, and feet until it is totally absorbed; followed by specific pressures on different areas according to Shiatsu. (25 minutes)
Activate the circulation, lipolysis, and wrap. Place a Plastic Cover Sheet under the client’s body. With the client facing up, apply LIPO-REVERSE WRAP
Body Wrap first on the buttock, lower back, and the back of the thigh and leg without turning the client over. Repeat on the other leg. Then apply on the front of the thighs, legs, and abdomen. Cover the client with a plastic cover sheet and leave in place for 10 minutes. After the time in place, massage the remainder of the wrap with deep tissue techniques focusing on the areas with cellulite and adipocytes, for 10 minutes or until the product has been completely absorbed. (During the massage, remove the plastic cover sheet.) To finish the treatment, go down the right side using light pressing movements on the palm of the hand on the shoulder, arm, leg, and foot. Then go up the left side and finish with relaxing movements on the neck and head.

Acne is the most common form of inflammatory skin disease. Normally, sebum produced by the sebaceous glands is excreted to the surface of the epidermis through hair follicles. Occasionally, the hair follicles clog up and form a plug that attracts bacteria, resulting in swelling, inflammation, and eventually the outbreak of pimples. To combat acne effectively but gently, use Dr. Jeff® OTC anti-acne drug ingredients along with antioxidants, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and soothing ingredients to help skin clear of blemishes and reduce inflammation and redness.

Give your clients a few tips this fall so they can maintain beautiful skin in between spa visits. Summer skin is sunny and warm but transitioning into fall can initiate breakouts, uneven skin tone, and washed out coloring. To keep your clients looking healthy and gorgeous, tell them to try the following: 1. Purify and clear the skin by using a detoxifying facial mask two to three times a week, depending on their skin type. This will help to draw unwanted matter from within the skin and rev up circulation. 2. Brush on a little bronzer as the tan fades to maintain a warm, flattering glow. 3. Adjust makeup to the diminishing sunlight. Instead of pastels and corals, try richer, earthier colors. 4. Try a primer under her foundation to help maintain a longer lasting finish, especially if her skin gets oilier during seasonal change. 5. Apply a finishing powder to help assure even skin tone and porcelain smooth skin.
Everyone knows that play is important for kids. Play teaches them coordination, adult roles, social interaction, and basic problem-solving skills. But somehow, many people have fallen prey to the idea that play is only important for kids. Play is important no matter what your age. Dutch historian Johan Huizinga (1872-1945) once described it as the defining characteristic of our species. For Huizinga, humanity is notable not as Homo sapiens, “wise people,” but Homo ludens, “playful people.” Play is good for your health. A lot of play involves exercise, which is a good thing in and of itself, but there’s more to it than that. Play relieves stress and releases a whole range of feel-good chemicals in your brain, which not only make play fun but relieves tension across the whole of your body. Play is good for your brain, too. Play lights up the entire right side of your brain, creating a state of hyper-creativity that literally changes the way you see the world. Play unites your mind and body. In play, the gap between physical sensation and mental sensation is bridged. Play creates social bonds. There’s evidence that the earliest social bonds are primarily playful ones. As an infant develops a sense of its own identity and begins to recognize other people as beings with identities of their own, it begins to learn play and socialize at the same time. That doesn’t go away as you get older – play is still a rock-solid foundation for social behavior. Fortunately, there’s an easy and proven effective remedy for play deprivation: go out and play! Spending some profoundly non-serious time with yourself or with others may well make you better at all that serious stuff that’s been sucking at your soul and preventing you from playing in the first place. You’ll feel better, be more relaxed, and enjoy more creativity, which can’t help but make the rest of your life that much better.
Every month trade and consumer magazines are full of glossy covers boldly announcing that they have discovered the newest, most effective anti-aging ingredients. We have all been seduced by the impressive articles and carefully-placed advertising that promise beauty and results. We have seen the claims for magical anti-aging serums that cost outrageous amounts of money for an ounce or less of product. We have seen the words, “X percent more youthful.” “X percent more hydrated.” “X percent texture improvement.” Looking at these ads and articles from a non-scientific perspective, it is easy to be impressed with colorful words and dramatic claims promised by new ingredients. Often the claims accompanying these new products are backed by “clinical evidence.”
