VpR-Bioactive Vaporizing Decongestant Rub

Ac+- Bio Active Acne Ointment
Supportive therapy for acneic skin conditions, to reduce swelling and local inflammation. Antibacterial properties.
A Wise choice for gentle, balanced supportive care for the treatment of Acne.

Each of the four have each one of these properties:

• Bio-active botanical extracts and therapeutic nutrients start the healing process from deep within the skin.

• Théra Wise uses all natural plant extract of organic chamomile, argan kernel, grape seed, barley beta glucan, witch hazel, calendula, seabuckthorn, organic rose hip seed and olive fruit to reduce inflammation and rejuvenate and restore delicate skin tissue.

• Natural plant antimicrobial extracts ensure product safety and reliability.
• All Théra Wise products are paraben and petro-chemical chemical free, what is good for your body is also good for the environment.

I was blessed to be sent the SHO, the healing ointment.  I have been using this on small acne spots, plus an icky cut I gave myself on my ankle shaving.  I am not normally a fast healer for some reason, but this applies 3-5 times daily helped the nasty cut to heal really fast.  I have bad circulation to my feet (chalk that up to not enough exercise, lol) and so I was really impressed at the speediness of my ankle healing.

It didn’t break me out when I put it on my acne.  I didn’t put it everywhere just on a couple of the monsters I got during my time of the month.  Color me IMPRESSED!!  It dries to a nice, non-greasy finish, which is great for under makeup.

Since they carry these at CVS, which I just realized, I am going to run out to CVS later and pick up the VpR to try and help Craig and I breath better at night.

I also know most pregnant women have had or will get hemorrhoids.  What better to use then a safe cream that you can be confident in, and know that what you skin is absorbing is not going to harm your growing baby?

Therawise would like to offer one Prissy Green reader a SHO and VpR set!  This is a $36.52 value!  (or $40 CAD)

MyChelle Celebrates 9 Years!

In honor of nine wonderful years helping consumers regain vibrant and youthful skin, MyChelle Dermaceuticals, the leader in effective, natural skin care, reflects on its beginnings. Over the years, MyChelle established a leadership role in the natural skin care industry delighting consumers, retailers and media alike, because of its powerful delivery of visible results.

Myra Michelle Eby, founder of MyChelle Dermaceuticals, was frustrated by the lack of truly natural and effective skin care products. She began making kitchen‐made skin care products with ingredients right out
of her pantry and refrigerator that would eventually lead her to a new realm of skin care that is bioactive, pure, natural and effective: MyChelle. This marked the beginning of her passion to make cleansers, peels, and masks, with the guiding principle that the ingredients should nourish and rejuvenate the skin, just as food nourishes our bodies. She proved that natural could be effective without the use of harsh or toxic chemicals, and the idea for MyChelle Dermaceuticals was born.

MyChelle Dermaceuticals was founded on the premises that nature and science can be combined successfully to create the most effective, natural and safest skin care products possible. MyChelle is committed to designing products that are highly effective in boosting the skin’s nutrient levels and helping to fight the signs of aging while improving structural integrity and supporting the skin’s immune system. The biggest differentiator between MyChelle and other natural product companies is that MyChelle products contain the correct and clinically proven amount of natural, bioactive ingredients.
