I like!! I found this in Guardian. Being a mom who is constantly washing one thing after another, I get a little frantic about moisturizing my hands...and my whole body along the way. Garnier Aqua Defense is something I've seen, never heard of but loved at first sight. Love the bottle, love the 'green scheme' color and love the smell!
It says there 'Pure fruit water and anti-oxidant. Don't know how true THAT is but it's definitely nice.
It leaves a layer of film over your skin which protects against moisture loss and pollution.
But does it work?
Hhhhmmm....not so sure about that. While (I suppose) does lock in moisture, my skin does not feel any softer or moisturized. Is it supposed to just block out loss of moisture and not moisturize? I don't know. But the smell is good, love the feeling and it can be applied anywhere and everywhere! Yay!! Er...except the face.
Marsha's Take is that use it for the therapeutic fragrance instead of moisturizing your skin. The price is more expensive than other alternatives out there but I think it's worth it. I would buy it again.
p.s. I am wishing this is a paid advert but it's not. Sigh...
I have been doing this pose, part of Cosmic Dance (a type of yoga, I am assuming), called Stargazer pose without knowing it is called Stargazer's pose a lot in the past. You see, sometimes, I don't follow the rules and come up with my own stretches and poses. It is fun. I have on some music, nice, soothing music or just anything I can click on. Then I go with the flow, letting my hair down. Just moving to the music...and that is when I come up with the above Stargazer's pose. This pose really stretches your sides. Keep your eyes on the outstretched hand if you are keeping it pointed to the top, as if you are waving or connecting to a higher energy from the Universe. Your arms will ache a little but hey, toned arms, here you come! :-) For those who want a bigger stretch, it is safe to slowly and gently move the lifted hand towards your back...don't overdo it, listen to your body's complaints and respect it. You don't have to prove anything to anyone, reme...
