What a fantastic year 2017 was for my business. I got to meet so many new people and built stronger relationships with long term clients. I am very blessed to have such a supportive family, friends and clients. With the introduction of the beautiful Moo Goo, A Bit Hippy, Dusty Girls make up, Dr Zoo pet care products and the amazing No Pong deoderant to compliment my dermaviduals skin care range, I am now your one stop shop for all your skin care needs. With everything from shampoo, conditioner, face and body washes, moisturisers, sunscreens, deoderants, self tanners, foundations, eye shadows, blushers, mascara and of course our pet care. All of these products get my approval and I highly recommend you look at what you are currently using on your skin and start to learn what toxic ingredients some of your skin care contains. These are all very affordable. I do a lot of cosmetic analysing of products and one day soon I will hopefully be able to put them up on my web page. If you follow me on Instagram marys_skincare or Facebook Mary’s Skin Care you will see some of the products that I have analysed. You may be very surprised to see Ego QV wash and lotions, Dermaveen, Cetaphil, Johnson and Johnson baby care products and Bio Oil just to name a few of the very bad ones. One of the reasons I decided to stock No Pong deoderant was after my sister was diagnosed with breast cancer last year and I started looking at the deoderants I was using and then realized how many nasty ingredients were in them. Parabens are known endocrine distrupters and have been found in breast cancer tumors. No Pong has been formulated by a nurse and is a paste you apply under your arm pits. It reduces sweating and leaves you with no unpleasant smells. At only $9.95 a tin or $10.95 for the sodi bic free formula they are very cost effective and works well for males or females. Remember what you put under your pits, can affect your tits. Lastly a big thank you to everyone that supported our latest fundraiser for Ronald McDonald House in Hobart. We manage to raise $1085.00. I am off to New Zealand and then Sydney on the 9th January and will be back to work on the 20th January. If you need any products before then please text me to make a time to pick them up. Otherwise stay safe and thank you for your ongoing support of a small home based business that offers professional services with Intense Pulsed Light treatments for the permanent reduction of unwanted dark hair, treating pigmentation and distended capillaries, acne treatments, skin consultations and analysis, LED light treatments, anti aging treatments, Collagen Induction Therapy and amazing facials.

Merry Christmas from Mary, Andrew, Emma, Nic, Henry and Vodka. This is a verse that was given to me one year from a client and I have kept it and thought it was very appropriate for all of my wonderful family, friends and clients who have supported my business. I wish you all the most amazing Christmas with your family and friends. I hope you all get to share some beautiful food, have fun and make memorable moments. I will be closed from 24th December until Tuesday 2nd January. I will then be away from the 10th to 19th January as I am off to New Zealand and then back to Sydney for dermaviduals symposium. I will be away again 5th and 6th February for some Advanced IPL training. Until next time I see you, stay safe and enjoy the festive season. Greetings from Mary, Andrew, Emma, Nic and our fur babies Henry and Vodka. xo Christmas Wishes List There is a list of friends I know, collected on my phone or book And every year at Christmas time I go and take a look, And that is when I realize, these names are really part, Not of the book or phone they’re written in, but of my very heart. For each name stands for someone, who’s touched my life sometime, And in that meaning they’ve become, “the rhythm of the rhyme” I feel I am composed of each remembered name, And while you may not be aware or feel the same, My life is so much richer than it was before you came. For once I have known someone, the years cannot erase The memory of a pleasant word or a friendly face. So never think my Christmas greetings are just a mere routine, Of names upon a list that I’ve forgotten in between. For when I send a Christmas greeting addressed to you, It is because you’re one of those that I am indebted to. And whether I have know you for many years or few, In some way you have had a part in shaping things I do. So every year when Christmas comes I realize anew, The greatest gift that God could give, would be a friend like...

Christmas break, new products, final fundraiser, Christmas party, anti aging treatments. View this email in your browser Share December. OMG where did the year go? My last working day for this year will be Saturday 23rd December. I will then re-open Tuesday 2nd January. I will be away again from the 10th to 19th January and away again 5th and 6th February. Our last anti aging treatment days will be the 15th and 16th December. These will resume 27th January, then 17th February, 17th March and 7th April. Our final fundraiser and first Christmas party is this Saturday 16th December commencing at 7pm at Prospect Park sports club rooms off Harley Parade,( NOT the Italian Club or Harley Davidson). We are supporting Ronald McDonald House. Admission is $5 and this will be donated to them. We will have live music, a bar (cash only) and some great prizes to win. I hope to see as many of my clients as possible attend. Dress is optional, casual or you can dress up if you want to. If you wish to bring your partner or children that is fine. I just need a rough idea of number of people attending so if you are going to join us for a fun filled night please text me on 0438311297 to let me know. A small plate of food to share if you have time but that’s not a priority as it’s a busy time of the year. Pictured below are a couple of prizes you could win. New Products. This year I decided to stock Moo Goo,https://moogoo.com.au/ A Bit Hippy, https://abithippy.com.au/ Dusty Girls make up, https://dustygirls.com.au/ Dr. Zoo pet care products https://drzoo.com.au/ and No Pong deoderant. https://www.nopong.com/products/ I wanted products that contain no nasty toxic ingredients that would go with my dermaviduals https://www.dermaviduals.com.au/ range of skin care. I am frequently doing cosmetic analysis of skin care ingredients and there is so much false marketing our there. It’s called marketing bullshit. Some of the words you will see is dermatologically tested, fragrance and paraben free, for sensitive skin or even extra sensitive skin, (seriously is there a difference?) A lot of products marketed for acne actually will make the skin worse and contribute to more acne. Some of the worst products I have seen are Ego Q.V, Dermaveen, Nivea and Neutreogena, Dettol hand wash, Clearasil, Garnier and Palmolive body wash. My business is now your one stop shop for all your skin care needs with no toxic ingredients. With everything from your face and body washes, deoderants, moisturizers, toothpaste, sunscreens, sunless tanners, eye creams, serums, tonics and make-up. A Bit Hippy is the vegan range and is becoming very popular with clients. No Pong has been a best seller from day one. Made by a nurse who is a midwife and wanted a deoderant that was safe to use. Made from coconut oil, bicarb soda and essential oils its a paste you apply to your under arms and it reduces your sweating and stops odour. She also made one with clay for those who are sensitive to bicarb soda. Remember what you put under your pits can affect your tits. Click on the blue links to see more about all of these fantastic products and please consider shopping here next time for all...

OCTOBER . My apologies for leaving it so long in between writing a newsletter. Firstly I will be away from my business 9th, 10th and 11th October and then again 21st to 29th October. My diary is filling up fast with bookings and I am now booked out until the 13th November. If you wish to see me please book all your appointments until the end of the year. Please contact me on my mobile 0438311297 rather than Facebook or emails. Family news. My husband Andrew, keeping busy with his own business Australia Working Safely. He is an occupational health and safety consultant. He has had a few trips to Mount Gambier and will be off to New Zealand for work again in the near future. Our dear daughter Emma is studying nursing in Queensland. Our son Nic is holding down two jobs, one at JB HiFi and the other at the Country Club Casino. Needless to say I am proud of what they are both doing. Now for the best news…… My gorgeous baby sister Kathy was diagnosed with breast cancer early this year. She has gone through chemo and just had her left mastectomy with removal of 11 lymph nodes. The margins of the tumor are all clear and no lymph nodes had been affected. This means that she will not need to have radiotherapy treatment now but instead will be able to move ahead with having the right mastectomy and a reconstruction. I am just so happy for her. Please remember all the products I now stock are suitable for everyone, especially people going through chemo or radiotherapy. Our latest fundraiser was to support Launceston Feeding the Homeless again. https://www.facebook.com/feedingthehomeless7250/ Once again the generosity of you my friends and family was amazing and they were very happy to receive all of your donations. We are also supporting Ronald McDonald house this year. http://Ronald McDonald House Hobart All cash donations given here will be passed on to them at the end of the year.

June 2017. Well I started writing this last month and then I updated my computer and thought I had lost my data base but then I found it yesterday. I hope you all had a wonderful Easter. I certainly did as I managed to have a few days away and visited our daughter in Queensland and caught up with some family and friends. I came home feeling very refreshed. Some of you will know that I am also a nurse and when I can I go to work at our Private hospital that has 2 campuses. Between them I work on either of the 4 medical or surgical wards. This keeps my nursing skills updated. I also still love looking after sick people, its great to catch up with old nursing colleagues and make new friends. Our daughter in now following in my footsteps and is doing her nurses training in Queensland. Our son is still working at the Casino as a gaming attendant and getting plenty of work. My dearest youngest sister was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. She is currently undergoing 16 chemo treatments and will then require surgery, radiotherapy, more surgery and then a reconstruction in 12 months. Luckily all of the skin care products that I use here are suitable for oncology clients so I can support her with skin care and she can continue to look fantastic as she goes through this journey. http://www.dermaviduals.com.au/what-my-skin-needs/oncology-aesthetics/ Supporting Launceston feeding the homeless. For those of you who are not on Facebook, a wonderful lady called Kirsten started feeding the homeless 6 nights a week at Royal Park from 5.30 to 6.30pm every night except for Saturday. She asks for food and sometimes clothing donations. They have a barbecue each evening and are given some food for the next day. How amazing is this? The support from local people and businesses has been fantastic. Well I asked for your support and wow did you come through with the goodies. My dining room was overflowing and we filled up a trailer and delivered it to the warehouse in Invermay. Thanks to my husband Andrew for delivering it there and to Margaret and Alison who helped unpack and sort it. Kirsten was absolutely so excited to receive all the donations. Everyone who donated went in the draw to win some great prizes. Tracey was the lucky winner of the Easter hamper, Yvette won a facial, Miss Pat won the gorgeous blanket donated by Suzy from Lizzy’s blanks, Jackie took home some wine from Sharman’s wines and Claire a SCENAR therapy treatments from the lovely Rebekah at SCENAR Therapy Tasmania. For more information about these please click on the links. It is with much sadness that after Easter beautiful young Lizzy who we supported last year passed away 3 weeks before her 18th birthday. Her mum Suzy has been busy making blankets to help support the family while Lizzy was so sick. She has now decided to close down the making of these beautiful blankets and sell them at a reduced price. Let me tell you they are so cuddly and snuggly, made in a pet free and smoke free home. If you get the chance to buy one or more please do so. https://www.facebook.com/LizzysBlanks/ https://www.facebook.com/Launceston-feeding-the-homeless-144649926027369/ http://www.sharmanswines.com.au/ https://www.facebook.com/Scenar-Therapy-Tasmania-648360741987680/ Pictured below...

March 2017. Well somehow I blinked and missed February. Now we are in March and Easter will be here before we know it. Easter this year is Friday 14th until Tuesday 18th April so my business will be closed for this period. Supporting Launceston feeding the homeless. For those of you who are not on Facebook, a wonderful lady called Kirsten started feeding the homeless 6 nights a week at Royal Park from 7 to 8 pm every night except for Saturday. She asks for food and sometimes clothing donations. They have a barbecue each evening and are given some food for the next day. How amazing is this? The support from local people and businesses has been fantastic. From now until Saturday 8th March I am asking my clients if they wish to support this cause to drop off donations of non-perishable food, toiletries, washing liquid etc. In just a few days this is what we have to give so far. Everyone who donates will go in a draw to win some great prizes including an Easter hamper, a facial, some wine from Sharman’s wines and some SCENAR therapy treatments from the lovely Rebekah at SCENAR Therapy Tasmania. For more information about these please click on the links. https://www.facebook.com/Launceston-feeding-the-homeless-144649926027369/ http://www.sharmanswines.com.au/ https://www.facebook.com/Scenar-Therapy-Tasmania-648360741987680/ EASTER PRIZES. Here are a couple of prizes you could win by donating here to help Launceston feeding the homeless. A dermaviduals pack with a bag, beach towel, face tonic, sun screen and a lip balm. The other is a food and goodies hamper. These will be drawn on Saturday 8th March and winners notified. ANTI WRINKLE TREATMENTS Our next dates for these treatments are Saturday 18th March, 8th April, 13th May and 10th June. These days are always very popular so if you would like an appointment please book in with me. DERMAVIDUALS AND LED. For any of you that have been here and experienced a facial or Collagen Induction Therapy, you will know that I include LED treatments with them. This is because of the increased penetration of products into your skin and the healing effect of Light emitting Diodes. http://www.dermaviduals.com.au/led-dermaviduals/ This is something I don’t like seeing on my clients or anyone for that matter. A sunburn is a sign of sun damage. You will still tan when wearing a sunscreen and by doing this, you are reducing your risk of developing a skin cancer or worse, a melanoma. The diagnosis of these is increasing every year and melanomas are appearing in younger people. On overcast, cloudy days it is easy to think that you won’t get burnt because there is no sun. This is normally when people get burnt the worse because they are not feeling the sun’s bite. So please remember to wear your sunscreen, a hat and preferably protective clothing and seek shade when you can. Sun and smoking are two of the biggest aging factors, so don’t leave it until you are older and want anti aging treatments, look after your skin while you are young and you will age better. If you do get sun burnt remember I have Lotion M in stock to treat it with. My other reminder is please remember to check your breasts regularly. If you notice any changes get it checked and if you...

Dry winter skin is a signal that something has gone wrong with the skins defensive barrier system. Dryness, stinging, burning, flaking, roughness, itching and inflammation, indicate there is a reduction in the key lipids (ceramide, cholesterol and free fatty acids), which make the natural waterproofing of the skin – that is, forming a permeability barrier. In normal skin the permeability barrier is also an effective anti-microbial barrier as it prevents the penetration into the body of pathogenic microbes, allergens, and other noxious substances. In dry skin the loss of these key barriers increase the aging process of the skin and exaggerate the appearance sagging skin, pigmentation, lines and wrinkles. The treatment of dry and sensitive skin usually involves a topical application of traditional moisturizers formulated to hydrate the skin with humectants and occlusive ingredients (petrolatum and silicones). Unfortunately, this approach often shuts down the skins natural repair process because these ingredients trick the skin into thinking that the barrier has been corrected. However, in about 4 hours after these ingredients have evaporated from the skin, the stratum corneum senses that the problem has not been corrected, and a defective barrier rapidly forms once more. Since the skin is not able to repair itself due to the inappropriate ingredients of some traditional moisturizers, it becomes dependent on the moisturizer for hydration and protection. Sadly, the skin has become addicted to products and ingredients that keep the dry skin cycle going. The lack of normal barrier formation combined with the persistent drying and hydration of the skin leads to additional barrier defects, and possibly the development of other skin conditions. It’s time to break the dry skin cycle! Dermaviduals base cream moisturizers with DMS (Dermal Membrane Structure) differs from traditional moisturizers because the formulation is designed to target the underlying cause of the barrier defect, not just the symptom. Based on the science of corneotherapy, dermaviduals base cream moisturizers with DMS work by infusing the same natural lipids found within the skins permeability barrier with patented Dermal Membrane Structure (DMS). DMS physically and chemically mimic the membrane structure of the skins permeability barrier with the inclusion of ceramide, free fatty acids and cholesterol, in a 1:1:1 ratio. This healing approach naturally slows water loss through the skin, accelerates the repair process, and builds a naturally strong barrier against internal and environmental factors which cause dry, sensitive and aging skin. Dermavidals moisturizers work with your skin because it’s formulated to act like your skin. Each customized DMS moisturizers works to correct and rebuild the skins barrier defense system, which results in barrier homeostasis, balanced hydration and a more youthful and radiant appearance of the skin. Since no two skins are alike, dermaviduals moisturizing creams with DMS come in three strengths and are selected based on an individual skin type and condition. dermaviduals Base Creams with DMS can be further customized with selected active ingredients to address the unique needs of an individual skin. When the barrier fails don’t treat the symptoms, treat the cause with dermaviduals corneotherapy moisturizing creams. Finally, a corneotherapy based moisturizer that works with your skin and not against it. Say goodbye to dry...
