Anti-aging Olive Oil

No doubt you have heard about all the health benefits of olive oil and noticed that olive oil is often used as an ingredient in many hair and anti-aging skin care products. Well I just found another use for olive oil I wanted to share.

A friend told me a recipe for making your own makeup remover. It involved a mixture of three oils, two of them being olive oil and castor oil. Well, I didn’t have any in the house that night and I decided to give olive oil a try as a makeup remover. Result: it’s soft on the skin, works like a dream and the price is so right, costing about $6 - $8 for a huge bottle from the grocery store. I’ve put some olive oil in a small bottle and it’s now my makeup remover of choice in the bathroom. Also, it doesn’t smell so don’t worry about that

Just wanted to share this tip with our readers!

Microdermabrasion for Anti-aging Skin Care

I had booked an appointment for a repeat visit at the Summerhill Spa at 154 Cumberland Avenue, Yorkville, Toronto to review their anti-aging microdermabrasion treatment with a deep cleansing facial. It’s a repeat visit because we at PureAgeless prefer organic and all natural treatments and these are the kind of products that the Summerhill Spa uses. My esthetician, Jennifer, recommended the frequency for follow-up microdermabrasion treatments for my skin, something I appreciated.

First my face was cleansed with gentle botanical cleansing cream and then exfoliated with their rice grain exfoliator product while the face steamer is blowing on steam to my skin to assist in the cleaning and

Service Review: Summerhill Spa

Published by PureAgeless under Service Reviews, Skin Care

Massage at the Summerhill SpaHad I forgotten how lovely having a facial is? How long had it been since my last facial, I can’t exactly remember. However, for anti-aging skin pampering and supreme relaxation, I don’t know why I had waited so long.

I booked an appointment for an Aroma Purity Essential Facial with Neck and Shoulder massage at the Summerhill Spa located in the heart of Yorkville, upstairs at 154 Cumberland Street, Toronto. They specialize in all natural and organic spa treatments and this was the drawing card for me. The Spa offers the full spectrum of treatments and beauty packages.

Just For The Fun of It! Semi Permanent Eyelashes - Service Review

Published by PureAgeless under Reviews, Service Reviews

Just for the fun of it, I decided to try out semi-permanent eyelashes at Space Hair Craft Salon & Spa at 588 Yonge Street in Toronto. A girlfriend, much younger than I, had told me about a special offer for $49.95 at Space Hair. They looked good on her, I had a party to go to, so I thought “why not?!”

So I booked my appointment with the salon on the afternoon of the party. Upon arriving, I was sent downstairs to the esthetician’s area to get my “falsies” put on. Read further…

Serpentus Hair Styling - Service Review

Serpentus is located at 154 Bathurst Street in the Strictly Roots shop in downtown Toronto. Serpentus is owned by Stevhan Standberg.

Following a friend’s recommendation I tried to book an appointment and luckily managed to get one in time to cover my graying roots and fix my bad hair days.

Stevhan is an expert at color management on graying hair. Graying hair needs sensitive color treatment. I wanted my originally dark hair with about 40% gray made a light brown with blond hair lights. After giving me a fabulous head massage, he applied Read further…
