Hi Lovelies,

I am extremely excited to bring you the Face Theory Vitamin Superhero Skincare Set review. Reason being, my skin is in better shape than ever and glowing. I cannot believe how much my pores have reduced, they have practically disappeared. Let me tell you, that has never happened before. I got used to having large open pores many years ago and put it down to unavoidable circumstances. I had no idea skincare could change that!

The Face Theory Vitamin Superhero Skincare Set has brought me joy on so many levels. I began using it over a week ago and seen results within only a few days. I have sensitive skin so I figured I would take a while to get used to it. Luckily, my skin seems to have adapted well. I had a few tiny little red spots appear on my forehead and on my left cheek. This is par for the course for me when switching products or introducing new ingredients to my skincare regime. I wasn’t worried much and rightly so, my skin is clear and my pores are literally disappearing before my eyes! read more

According to various studies, Elderberry syrup stops cold and flu symptoms within 48 hours! A study performed and published by the Journal of International Medical Research in 2004 concluded the following –

Elderberry has been used in folk medicine for centuries to treat influenza, colds and sinusitis, and has been reported to have antiviral activity against influenza and herpes simplex. We investigated the efficacy and safety of oral elderberry syrup for treating influenza A and B infections. Sixty patients (aged 18-54 years) suffering from influenza-like symptoms for 48hrs or less were enrolled in this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study during the influenza season of 1999-2000 in Norway. Patients received 15 ml of elderberry or placebo syrup four times a day for 5 days, and recorded their symptoms using a visual analogue scale. Symptoms were relieved on average 4 days earlier and use of rescue medication was significantly less in those receiving elderberry extract compared with placebo. Elderberry extract seems to offer an efficient, safe and cost-effective treatment for influenza. These findings need to be confirmed in a larger study. read more

Moringa powder for health, skin and energy is a brilliant choice due to the high levels of nutrients, vitamins and minerals present.It is packed with iron, vitamin A, C and E, amino acids and essential amino acids, calcium, magnesium, potassium and protein.

It is an antioxidant, with flavonoids which are essential in our diet, as mentioned in my recent post on Buckwheat. It is anti-inflammatory with polyphenols, covered in another recent post on Gut Health and contains absorbic acid.

Moringa Oleifera is a tropical flowering plant. It is native to parts of Africa and Asia, including the Himalayas in India, and provides 90 nutrients, including 46 antioxidants and a multitude of minerals. It has become soaringly popular in its natural leaf powder supplement form. However, it is also possible to eat the pods, roots, bark, flowers, seeds, and fruits. Moringa seed extract is not recommended though. read more
