What do I do?

“WHAT DO I DO?”. . .
I’m an Independent Consultant for Arbonne International. Arbonne is a health and wellness company that has personal care products as well as nutritional supplements – products such as skincare, make up, shampoo, vitamins…
Our products are Pure, Safe & Beneficial- and this means they use the best of nature and science, without the use of harmful chemical ingredients, so they are safe to use. Best of all the products provide the results consumers are looking for.
What makes our products unique is the fact that they are botanically based, contain no mineral oil, pH correct, Vegan certified, etc.
When people try our products they get the results they want! Those results are shared very quickly with others! We all know ‘word of mouth advertising’ is a great way to sell… its nice that these products sell themselves.
So, what I do is I simply let people know that this company exists and I introduce them to the products. I typically offer them a sample of one of our skin care lines to try so they can see the results for themselves! I show them how to shop directly with Arbonne! It’s very simple. Over time I have created a network of consumers and Arbonne compensates me each time these shoppers purchase.
The second part of my business consists of sharing the Business Opportunity that Arbonne offers… I show consumers that when they redirect their personal care spending to Arbonne and teach others the benefits of doing so with them… they create a shopping network where everyone shopping together gets compensated for the network of consumers they create. We all use these products daily… so why not shop directly with Arbonne and use quality products that are safe to use and get compensated at the same time?
Bottom line…I LOVE these products – I love the results, I love that they are safe for me to use, and I love the concept of the business. It is a brilliant system that allows me to shop smart, help others to do so as well, and help myself and others to create a part-time business that provides residual income. As our shopping networks grow over the months and years, so do our paychecks and we all are working together as a team…leveraging our time.
Once I introduce a person to the company, the products and the business… I let them make a choice as to what is right for them… would they like to shop at wholesale like I do or would they like to shop and share the products with others and build a business? The choice is theirs and I am happy to help them in any way I can.
If this sounds like a fit for you or maybe for someone you know don’t hesitate to ask for more details or just a sample!!!

Invest in yourself through Arbonne.

Does this sound like you?

Introducing PhytoProlief and Prolief:

Each year millions of menopausal and perimenopausal women go to their doctors seeking relief from such complaints as hot flushes, night sweats, bloating, indigestion, allergies, infertility, migraine/headaches, insomnia, fatigue, mood swings, depression, high blood pressure, weight gain, head hair loss, facial hair growth, anxiety attacks, aging skin, irritability, foggy thinking, lack of concentration, heart palpitations, bone loss, and heavy bleeding. All symptoms of Menopause and Peri-Menopause. The most common solution is prescribing the synthetic hormone estrogen or progestin or a combination of the two (HRT) or birth control pills.

Why are healthy women going through a natural life transition prescribed powerful, carcinogenic drugs? At whatever stage of life a woman may be experiencing hormonal imbalance, there are safe, effective and natural solutions. Consider a healthy choice.

The current research of prominent physicians and authors has shown that it is actually the decrease in progesterone levels (not estrogen) that is responsible for the many menopause, peri-menopause and PMS symptoms women endure. Furthermore, many HRT’s are focused on increasing only the estrogen levels and providing just enough progestin to try to lower the risks of cancers caused by estrogens.

Today women are demanding a safer solution for their symptoms, and now there is Phytoprolief: a Natural Progesterone Balancing Cream with natural phyto-estrogen herbs (Black Cohosh, Chaste Tree Berries, Evening Primrose, Don Quai). Phytoprolief is a safe and natural alternative to synthetic hormones. Phytoprolief is currently providing relief to thousands of women suffering with hormone imbalance. Hormone Imbalance is having too much estrogen or not enough progesterone.

Functions of Natural Progesterone:
Converts stored fat to energy
Helps prevent endometrial cancer
Restores proper cell oxygen levels
Reduces facial hair
Is a precursor of the other sex hormones, including estrogen and testosterone
Normalizes blood clotting
Normalizes blood sugar levels
Helps prevent breast cancer
Facilitates thyroid hormone
Maintains secretory endometrium
Is a natural diuretic
Restores Sex drive
Assists to build bone and protects against osteoporosis

Throughout the course of a woman’s life, the hormones estrogen and progesterone are constantly fluctuating. It is the imbalance between these two hormones that can cause the symptoms of PMS and menopause and accelerated bone loss after menopause. If you suffer from breast swelling and tenderness, fatigue, hot flashes, night sweats and mood swings, your hormones may not be in balance.

Natural progesterone is recommended to help balance your hormones naturally. It has been used successfully to help reduce the symptoms and discomfort of *PMS and as a *natural alternative to hormone replacement therapy, without the side effects. It has also been used to help with bone mineral loss, or osteoporosis.

The most desirable way to use natural progesterone is in a transdermal (absorbed through the skin) cream, containing 400-500 mg of progesterone per ounce, supplying 20 mg of progesterone per pump or 1/4 tsp.

Arbonne’s Balancing Creams were formulated to meet these specifications! PhytoProlief and Prolief are natural progesterone creams that are applied topically, to ensure optimal absorption and utilization by the body. They both contain 480 mg of progesterone per ounce and are conveniently packaged in a dose-metered pump, so each dose supplies 1/4 teaspoon containing the recommended 20 mg of progesterone. There’s no confusing and messy measuring!

PhytoProlief is a Natural Progesterone Cream containing herbs known to help relieve the symptoms of PMS and menopause. Many of these herbs are termed phytoestrogens, or natural estrogens from plant sources, capable of much or too little estrogen. Arbonne’s PhytoProlief has the added herbs: Black Cohosh*(relieves menopausal symptoms), Chaste Tree Berries* (balances female hormones), Dong Quai* (relieves symptoms of PMS), Evening Primrose Oil* (relieves premenstrual and menstrual complaints, and helps with hair-loss), Red Clover*, Licorice, Alfalfa and Ginseng.

*Studies reveal that the compounds in phyto-estrogen herbs bind to estrogen receptors and mimic the effect of estriol, the weakest of the three levels of estrogen, one which has never been associated with increased risk of breast, ovarian or endometrial cancers. Researchers have found phyto-estrogen herbs have estrogen-like effects and binds to estrogen receptors, yet without raising estrogen levels in the body**

Prolief was developed for those interested in receiving the benefits of a Natural Progesterone Cream without the added herbs and is beneficial for Men, women considering pregnancy, women with fertility problems, and women who are breastfeeding.

Women and men from 9 to 99 can experience the benefits of natural progesterone. (This makes me want to rub it on some of my middle school students.) It also eases painful cramping, and also helps with erratic periods.

NO SLUMP WITH THE PUMP!
•Easy – One pump equals 1/4 tsp. & 20 mg. USP Natural progesterone cream
•Pump Up – Your Moods, Your Energy, Your Health, Your Libido, Your Patience, Your Happiness, Your Life
•Not Messy – No sticking fingers in jars. No cream under fingernails. No contamination!
•Lasts Longer – because it is larger. It is .5oz larger than most other companies and lasts 2 to 4 months, depending on usage.

Guidelines for Use
Q: Are there side effects of taking progesterone?
There are no known side effects of progesterone when it is taken in small doses (2 to 40 milligrams per day). Very large doses can cause sleepiness or sluggishness.

Q: Why do Peri-menopausal women have menopause symptoms when they are still having periods?
In peri-menopause (ages 35-50) many women have irregular periods or even regular periods and may not ovulate or ovulate late with each period. This is our bodies preparing for menopause or responding to stress. When we do not ovulate every month we do not create adequate levels of progesterone.

Q:How is progesterone best absorbed by the body?
Transdermally (or through the skin), such as a cream or oil. It is best absorbed when massaged into the skin where the skin is relatively thin and supplied with capillary blood flow, such as the face, neck, upper chest, breasts, inner arms and thighs, abdomen, the palms of the hands and soles of the feet. Be sure not to use mineral oil or petroleum based skin care products as they “seal” the skin and decrease absorption of progesterone.

Q:Can I use PhytoProlief with Arbonne’s Nutrition and Weight loss line?
Yes! PhytoProlief and Prolief was developed to work in perfect harmony with Arbonne’s supplements.

Why We Over-Eat and What to Do About It

Why We Over-Eat and How To Stop!!!

Reason 1: There is no time for breakfast, so we grab a muffin. Solution: Mix Arbonne’s chocolate or vanilla high protein shake together with water, milk or juice and drink it as you’re getting ready. Studies show that high protein eaters feel more satisfied and less hungry throughout the day. Our shake helps you feel satisfied for longer periods of time, thanks to more than 20 essential vitamins, minerals and flaxseed.

Reason 2: It’s midday, our energy is lagging and the office vending machine is calling our name. Solution: Snack on Arbonne’s Weight Loss Chews or down Arbonne’s Citrus or Pomegranate healthy fizzle energy drink.

•The Weight Loss Chews are snacks that contain Arbonne’s Keep Going! Herbal Blend that helps control appetite and delivers a boost of energy between meals.
•Our fizzy tablets provide a boost of energy, help control the appetite and increase metabolism with an exclusive blend of ingredients to help you with your weight loss goals.

Reason 3: We are planning to meet our friends for a late dinner, but already hungry. Solution: Have a 150-200 calorie snack such as celery with peanut butter and sprinkle Arbonne’s Go Anywhere! tasteless and odorless Fiber Booster powder on it. It contains no saturated or trans fats and fiber can fill you up with very few calories.

Reason 4: We’re ready for lunch but stuck in traffic. Solution: Grab Arbonne’s Weight Loss Chews that you cleverly stored away for an emergency and pop Arbonne’s Going Going Gone natural supplement in your mouth 30 minutes before you eat. If you do, it will help you from over eating and thus intake fewer calories. The supplement contains our Proprietary Get Going! Herbal Blend and a patented ingredient shown to promote lean body mass all the while supporting your nutrition and weight loss goals

Reason 5: It’s past our bedtime, but our stomach is growling. Solution: Eat a piece of high fiber, low calorie fruit. Sprinkle Arbonne’s Fiber Booster on top for an additional fiber intake instead of diving into the cookie jar.

The Arbonne Difference: What we put into our products isn’t the only thing that separates us from other brands; it’s what we leave out that puts us in a league of our own.

Are you in the sun?

When it comes to your skin, every day is sun day … no matter what the weather. Solar rays can do damage year-round, so make sure you focus on preventing harm to your skin with BefoRE Sun products by Arbonne. Since 90% of the visible signs of aging are due to sun exposure, Arbonne´s BefoRE Sun products are formulated with technologically-advanced Nanospheres, and other RE9® anti-aging elements, to support skin befoRE the damage is done.

Have you tried the Arbonne BEFORE SUN Line? It’s really great and really works. As many of you may know, I have a friend that has very sensitive skin and is literally allergic to the sun — direct sun exposure triggers her immune system and produces a response that activates inflammatory cells or proteins in her skin. The result may be an itchy, red rash or hives (solar urticaria). She may also experience a red rash on exposure to sunlight if an ingredient in her sunscreen or perfume causes photosensitivity. This reaction causes an increased sensitivity to sunlight.

Because of her sun allergy and increased sensitivity to the sun, she can reduce her risk of a reaction by limiting her time in the sun. (How easy is that?) Her doctor also recommends the use of antihistamines to prevent or reduce a reaction when she knows she will be out under the sun too long. Using sunscreen offers some protection, but she is usually allergic to sunscreen’s ingredients. Fortunately, the natural ingredients in Arbonne’s BefoRE Sun Line have worked for her.

She has suffered from Photosensitivity for over 20 years and has finally found some relief. After 4 years, she finally went in her pool this weekend, and didn’t get an allergic reaction. Maybe she’ll be brave enough to hit the beach this summer. If you or someone you know has an allergic reaction to the sun or sunscreens that they have used, please forward this e-mail to them.

As for me… I don’t really tan I usually just burn. A poor genetic trait inherited from my father.
I had a run-in many months ago with the sun during the renovation of my backyard. Eight hours in the sun, sweating, and no sunscreen. Ya’ it was totally dumb! I should have just taken the two or three minutes to apply the sunscreen. I did however, apply the Glow With It, After Sun Lotion and didn’t peel as bad as I should have. Most importantly my skin now feels fine!
Last weekend I was literally digging in the sun for 6 hours… I put on the sunscreen with tan enhancer and not even a “pink” spot.
This weekend I was digging for 3 hours, no sunscreen with tan enhancer and I’m paying for it!!!

There are different BEFORE SUN products. Here are a few:

Save Face & Body, SPF 15

Get the Most from your Arbonne Cleanser

Get the Most from your Arbonne Cleanser

No matter which Arbonne facial cleanser you are using (NutriMinC, FC5, NutriMenC, Clear Advantage)… here’s a tip to get the most benefit from your cleanser.

Twice daily (am/pm). Gently press the face with a warm (never hot), soft cloth to open pores and soften surface skin cells. Apply your cleanser to the palm of your hand and massage gently into your face and neck. Remove gently with water and a damp cloth. A baby wash cloth is recommended, or at some bath/linen shops, you can buy facial cloths that are extremely soft and remove make-up without stretching your skin.

Another little tip… when applying products such as serums or lotions, apply in light, upward motions. Always go “up” with these products, but “down” with your make-up foundation. When you apply your make-up in a downward motion, you will get a smoother finish because you are going in the direction of your pores.

Men’s Skin Care

Men’s Unique Skin Care Needs:
• Many men spend more than 50 minutes a day grooming.
• Most men’s products are focused on cleansing, shaving and moisturizing; few address anti-aging.
• Men have different skin care needs than women, based on hormonal and other factors.

NutriMenC RE9 is a scientifically advanced anti-aging regimen that’s specifically formulated for men of all ages. It’s a robust line of products that targets the uniquely different needs of men’s skin — including protection from the external elements of sun and wind, and the effects of shaving.

4 Step System for Face

Step 1 REveal Exfoliating Wash: Start your day with this refreshing, stimulating and exfoliating wash. This strong, yet sensitive formula removes dirt and dead skin cells quickly and efficiently.

Step 2 REsurface Shave Gel: This exclusive formula lays the foundation for an easy and comfortable shave. Arbonne’s robust Shave Gel minimizes irritation and helps increase glide, making razor burn a thing of the past. Protect and condition skin during shaving with this advanced, botanically based gel. With key ingredient almond, sunflower and cucumber.

Step 3 REstoring Toner: This cool, revitalizing toner leaves skin feeling clean and helps to tone, and to restore balance and vital nourishment. With key ingredients chamomile, cucumber, vitamins A, C and E.

Step 4 REality Moisturizer with Sunscreen: Unique, intensely moisturizing formula to help your skin defy and minimize the signs of aging. Thanks to the addition of sunscreen, this moisturizing formula protects against the sun’s damaging effects, while drastically improving skin tone. With key ingredients octinoxate, bilberry and sugar maple.

Taking care of your skin

TIPS FOR MAINTAINING HEALTHY SKIN
By Jesse Rose Williams
Esthetician – Executive District Manager

1.) Wash face twice daily do not go to bed without removing your makeup.

WHY? : Your face should be washed in the morning because generally people use a heavier cream at night, and if this is not cleansed off in the morning, you may appear more oily throughout the day. It should be washed at night as well, because things like dust and pollution collect on your skin throughout the day. Night is when your skin cells regenerate the most. If you do not remove your makeup, your skin will not regenerate itself as well.

2.) Always cleanse with a double cleanse.

WHY? : The first cleanse works to remove dirt, debris, and makeup residue. It is not until the second cleanse that your pores are really cleaned out.

3.) Drink plenty of water.

WHY? : 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. Lack of water is the number one cause of daytime fatigue. The body and skin rely heavily on water to function properly. Water keeps the skin healthy, vital, and attractive, in addition to aiding in many body functions. An easy formula to determine how much water you need daily is to take your body weight and divide by 2. That number, in ounces is how much you should drink each day. For example, if you weigh 160 pounds, you would need to drink 80 ounces (Ten 8 oz. glasses) of water daily.

4.) Always wear sunscreen, even on cloudy days.

WHY? : UVA rays (aging rays) weaken the skins collagen & elastin fibers, causing wrinkling and sagging. These rays can penetrate glass, water, and clothing. Because UVA rays make up 90 -95 % of the suns UV rays, you can be sure they are getting through even on cloudy days.

5.) Take care of yourself, from the inside out.

WHY? : Healthy skin begins with diet and water intake. It really is true that You are what you eat. Vitamins aid in healing, softening, and fighting diseases of the skin. A good place to start is with Arbonnes Bio Nutria, Figure 8, and Resist.

6.) Be sure to eliminate regularly.

WHY? : Potentially harmful toxins and waste trapped in your body will manifest themselves in your skin. Not to mention it can lead to poor digestion and illness. Herbal Colon Cleanse and Arbonnes Just Go! Fiber Shake coupled with plenty of water can really help.

7.) Dont use overly hot water to wash your face.

WHY? : Hot water can irritate sensitive skin. It can also change the pH of your skin.

8.) Exfoliate regularly. This means your body as well as your face.

WHY? : Removing dead skin cell layers from the surface of the skin can treat a variety of problems. Exfoliating regularly helps keep your skin smooth. Also, it will ensure your skin care products work effectively as they will be working on the epidermis rather than on a layer of dead skin cells. But be careful, too much exfoliation or too rough exfoliation can lead to irritation.

9.) When cleansing or applying products, always remember to go up & out.

WHY? : Your skin naturally sags as you age, theres no reason to help it along by pulling down on your facial muscles. Moving up and out will help keep your skin firm.

10.) Dont pick at acne lesions.

WHY? : If the comedone is closed, and you squeeze it, it will force the bacteria down into the dermis. The dermis is sterile, so it will spit it back out, often in a much larger area. If it is open, warm compresses will help open the pore, and clay masks will help clean it out. Be gentle, force will make it spread and could lead to bruising.

11.) Avoid stress and strive to learn healthy ways to handle stress.

WHY? : Stress plays a part in our health, which is reflected by our skins appearance. It can lead to increased sebum production. Usually we discover this is true right before a big event when we want to look our best. Strive to create a stress free environment.

12.) Keep your hormone levels in check.

WHY? : Hormone imbalances can lead to many skin problems, including sensitivity, dehydration, hyperpigmentation, acne and microcirculation problems. A great product to help regulate your hormones is Arbonnes Prolief and Phyto Prolief.

Here’s to living healthy with ARBONNE!!!
