Nurturing Touch Newsletter: Includes Covid 19 update and Teaching Announcement:
Hello and Beauty Partners:

We are living in different and exciting times now. It's a time of positivity, creativity, introspection, perseverance and forward thinking. Businesses are starting to reopen and survival techniques are crucial. Mandatory Covid Policies are in place ( listed above ) and Nurturing Touch Skincare (me) and clients will continue to abide by Sanitation and Aseptic techniques as required by the State and anticipate re-opening possibly July 4th.

In the meantime, do a safety check of your skin, don't just look at your skin, feel it. Running your hands over your skin may be even more important. Look for rough spots that have a sandpaper feel and don't go away, or that go away and come back.When you reach your 60's, precancerous growths appear with increasing frequency. Don't forget your scalp and nails, any strange discolorations can reveal possible health issues.

Great News:
Starting June 1, 2020, I will be participating in online oncology skincare teaching with Tower Cancer Center and I can't wait to teach my first class. I've gotten so many questions ,especially regarding discoloration that appeared after starting to wear masks. So I thought it would be so cool to start off with "Pandemic Skin", how to repair skin changes, and the do's and don'ts of mask wearing. Seemed to be so appropriate during these times. Please sign up when the calendar comes out as there are only 10 slots available and we have the opportunity to increase class size as demand requires. Looking forward to seeing you on zoom, let's re-create the soundtrack for your skincare regimen.

Stay safe, enjoy your holiday, wear sunscreen, wear your mask, wash your hands, journal, focus, pray, meditate. We are going to make it through this and be even better.

Peace, healing and hydration

Coronavirus Update - Recipe for Hydration:
As you know, I have suspended all skincare treatments until further notice. I have product in stock if you need to replenish during the crisis. In the meantime, I want you to have options in keeping your skin hydrated which is of critical importance. So here is one of my favorite hydrating mask that you can do from you kitchen until we meet again!

Hydrate and Brighten Your Skin:
Prep: 5 minutes
Items: Banana, Raw honey and Sour cream
Mask Application/relaxation: 15 minutes
Total: 20 minutes

Recipe: Hydrate and Brighten:
Take 1/2 banana ( mash it ) add 2 tablespoons of Raw honey and 1 tablespoon of Sour Cream. Now mix it all together and apply it to your entire face and neck area. Lay back and relax for about 15 minutes, ( we should have a lot more time now ), rinse it off with warm water and pat dry. Now look in the mirror and revel in your beauty.
It's not quite over, apply 2-3 drops of Serum and then Moisturizer. My favorites are Soothe Essence Serum and Saffron Meristem Moisturizer by Hale and Hush
and, if you must go outside during the day, apply your sunscreen.

Take care of yourselves, until me meet again,

The Benefits of Tumeric:
Turmeric (Curcuma longa) is a culinary spice, a major ingredient in Indian curries, and the source of American mustard’s bright yellow color. Used as both medicine and food for centuries, accumulating evidence suggests that this relative of ginger is a promising preventive agent for a wide range of diseases, probably due largely to its anti-inflammatory properties. Curcumin is the chief active component of turmeric and is usually taken as a supplement.

Research indicates that:
1. Curcumin seems to delay liver damage in some instances that can eventually lead to cirrhosis.
2. Turmeric reduces levels of heterocyclic amines – carcinogenic compounds that are formed when meats are barbecued, boiled, or fried – by up to 40 percent.
3. Curcumin inhibits the growth of skin cancer (melanoma) and also slows the spread of breast cancer into the lungs.
4. Turmeric that is part of daily curries eaten in India may help explain the low rate of Alzheimer’s disease in that country. Among people aged 70 to 79, the rate is less than one-quarter that of the United States!
