Now you can tone AND tan!

May 27, 2010

Dynamic Duo, our anti-cellulite treatment, is already one of the most popular ways for women to get into shape before hitting the beach, but now it’s even better with the addition of Tone & Tan.

Tone & Tan is based on the amazing toning and re-contouring effects of original Tonus B12 , with lashings of potent green tea and concentrated vitamin B12, but this time it’s also got a self tanning element to ensure you have a gorgeous glow before getting into your swimwear.

A safe, quick and effective way to shape the body and tone whilst also generating a beautiful, natural looking healthy tan, all at the same time. No parabens and completely preservative free, this new product is already in high demand.

Used alonsgide our oxygen therapy in Silhouette, Tone & Tan gives a healthy looking glowing tan that is both beautiful and safe. Oxygen revives and energises like nothing else and really brings the skin to life, plus it detoxes, hydrates and heals the skin. The tan achieved will not only look more realistic and natural but will be vibrant and fresh not to mention healthier and safer.

  • Tone & Tan is based on our ever popular Tonus B12 but with the added benefit of a self tanning agent
  • Paraben, and preservative FREE!
  • Not tested on animals

Available as part of the new Dynamic Tone & Tan (includes Silhouette) for the amazing price of just £52 (RRP £73), or alone for £37.50

Summer’s here! It’s time to wax!

May 21, 2010

It looks like the summer is finally here, but as the sun comes out, so do our hairy bits! If you want to look super confident like the bikini clad lady in our picture, you’ll need to think about hair removal.

Waxing is a fantastic way to remove unwanted hair,   the results are longer lasting and less damaging to the skin than some methods and it’s what most of us turn to when faced with wearing swimwear.

But there can be one drawback: waxing can increase in-growing hairs. This is due to the hair being pulled from the follicle but breaking just slightly under the skin – and so springing back and curling. This curling can cause the hair to continue to grow, but as it can’t push through the epidermis it coils under the skin. The result is a bulging raised lump that can grow as the hair grows. Uncomfortable AND unsightly.

When waxing the body we always recommend applying a fine layer of Karin Herzog Oxygen Body 3% as a multi-functional aftercare product. The oxygen and water delivered from this patented cream will have many benefits, including:

1) Soothes and calms
2) Diminishes heat and redness
3) Sterilizes and hyper-cleanses to prevent harmful bacteria and germs from penetrating open follicles
4) Makes the skin silky smooth and hydrated, as waxing can leave it dry
5) Encourages the skin to re-build itself so waxing does not overly thin or damage the skin

PLUS  it prevents in-growing hairs. It does this because as oxygen gas leaves the cream upon contact with the skin it penetrates all three layers of the skin. When it reaches the hair follicle the force of oxygen pressure  causes the hair to grow at an exaggerated angle as it plumps the hair shaft. This now plumped and strengthened hair is able to force up through the epidermis and so an in-growing hair is avoided!

If you’re waxing your face, choose your regular Karin Herzog oxygen facial cream – either Oxygen Face Cream, Vita-A-Kombi 1 or 2,  or Vita-A-Apricot. If you need help deciding which is best for you, just ask.

Don’t think about getting waxed without a little help from Karin Herzog!

NB If you’re anything like us, your chances of looking like the lovely lady in the picture above are also greatly increased by using our Dynamic Duo.

Looking tired? We’ve got the answer

May 21, 2010

If you suffer from dark circles under your eyes, we have the answer. De-oxygenated blood is blue – and is what can cause those annoying dark circles.

The skin around the eyes is delicate, thin and translucent, which means it shows the colour of the underlying blood clearer than any other part of the body. In people whose blood is less oxygenated the blood shows darker and more blue in tone – giving you that tired look.

Karin Herzog’s Eye Cream contains 0.5% active oxygen, and is clinically proved to delivery oxygen through all three layers of skin. Oxygen increases circulation, detoxes and energises so the eye cream has an amazing effect on dark eye circles. It also contains vitamins A and E, plus water to hydrate the area.

Apply morning and night to the eye area without rubbing in. You only need a tiny amount of this wonder cream for every application, meaning one pot should last you for 10 months.
