Beauté Pacifique – One of the best products we have tried and tested.

Beauté Pacifique was founded in Denmark in 1997 by two engineers, Flemming Christiansen and Gunnar Svendsen. Their aim was to build a superior cosmetics portfolio with as many beneficial properties as possible – a line of cosmeceuticals with considerable dermatological effects, yet still complying with international cosmetics regulations.

Christiansen and Svendsen both had considerable experience developing advanced medical electronic equipment for skin diagnostics.

They used their comprehensive knowledge of skin anatomy and physiology to develop the Beauté Pacifique range of advanced cosmeceuticals. They also started Cortex Technology and developed the DermaScan Ultrasound, which clearly shows the condition of the skin’s deepest layers for diagnostic purposes.

Today Beauté Pacifique has grown to become the leading cosmeceutical range in Denmark and is fast gaining a strong hold in many countries around the world, including the UK.

Research and advances in the understanding of skin conditions such as acne and rosacea as well as ageing skin ultimately have led to the creation of Beauté Pacifique. An International skin care company who’s Cosmeceuticals are advanced skin care products that combine cosmetics with pharmaceuticals.

Beauté Pacifique do not just improve the surface appearance of the skin but actually improve the biological function of the deeper levels of the skin using active ingredients.

Beauté Pacifique is proud of its patented delivery system that delivers the active ingredient to the deepest levels of the skin. The products visibly improve the appearance of the skin by repairing and rebuilding the collagen fibre structure in the entire depth of the skin. This result has been backed up by clinical studies and observations, as well as ultrasound scanning.

How to get through flu-season

How to get through flu-season

If you have kids then you’ll know what walking petri dishes of germs they are. Here are our top tips to get through flu season relatively intact.

  1. Get a flu shot. Yes it’s not 100% effective, but it is better than not having it.
  2. Wash everyone’s hands. A lot. Lather up with soap and water and scrub for 20 seconds. And then use antibacterial gel with alcohol for an extra boost.
  3. Stick to bedtimes. Sleep is the best thing you can give your immune system.
  4. Eat healthily. Increase your fibre intake and reduce your sugar consumption. It all helps to combat inflammation in your body, meaning your immune system can concentrate on combating the real evils: the flu bugs.

The importance of resilience

The importance of resilience

We all like to think we are resilient, that we can handle anything life throws at us, and bounce back. But did you know that resilience isn’t something you’re born with, it’s something you learn and develop as you grow? It is essential to a happy and healthy life.

It is crucial to enabling us to develop coping mechanisms against life experiences, that can otherwise be overwhelming.

Why being resilient is important:

  • It helps to improve our learning ability and academic potential.
  • It lowers our absence from work or study taken in sick days.
  • It increases our involvement in family or community matters.

Why HIIT is so great for you

Why HIIT is so great for you

High intensity interval training is the best form of exercise for you, especially if you’re short on time.

Research shows, time and again, that you get more out of a 2 minute, fast paced workout than a slower 30 minute treadmill slog.

Want to know why?

  1. It burns more fat. And keeps burning long after you stop exercising as your body’s repair cycle goes into overtime.
  2. You’ll work your heart. Hearts are muscles and to make them big and strong they have to be pushed hard. And yours will.
  3. No equipment or expensive gym membership required. Running, biking, jump roping, and rowing all work great for HIIT.
