But that's not all - peptides also aid in shrinking pores, helping to refine the texture of your skin. Who doesn't want smaller pores? Say goodbye to clogged pores and hello to smoother, clearer skin.

Okay let dive into talking about The Power of Hydration: Unlocking the Secret to Healthy Skin Our skin, the largest organ in our body, is made up of approximately 64% water. This crucial component is what gives our skin its plump, firm, and radiant appearance. When our skin lacks hydration, it can appear dull, flaky, and more prone to wrinkles - the first signs of unhealthy skin. Hydrated skin isn't just about aesthetics though. It plays a vital role in maintaining the overall health and functionality of our skin. Adequate hydration helps maintain the skin’s elasticity, promotes cell turnover, and aids in combating external factors like wind, pollution, and UV rays that can harm your skin.  Hydration and Acne You may wonder how hydration is linked to acne, a common skin concern. Well, when your skin is dehydrated, it compensates by producing more oil. This excess oil can clog pores, leading to breakouts. By keeping your skin well-hydrated, you're helping regulate oil production and thereby reducing the likelihood of acne flare-ups. Anti-Aging Benefits of Hydration Hydrated skin is more resilient. When your skin is sufficiently hydrated, it can fight off free radicals which contribute to the aging process. Plus, well-hydrated skin has a more even tone and texture, which can help minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Boosting Absorption of Active Ingredients A well-hydrated skin acts as a fertile ground for the absorption of active ingredients in your skincare products. When your skin is dry, it forms a barrier that makes it difficult for products to penetrate. However, when hydrated, your skin can more readily absorb these ingredients, making your skincare products work more effectively. Why Hydrated Skin Equals Healthy Skin Hydration and skin health are deeply intertwined. A well-hydrated skin is less likely to experience itchiness, redness, or scaling. Furthermore, it helps maintain your skin's protective barrier, preventing bacteria and pollutants from entering your body. In conclusion, hydration isn't just about quenching your skin's thirst. It's an essential part of maintaining healthy, glowing skin. From combating acne and aging to boosting the effectiveness of your skincare products, the benefits of keeping your skin hydrated are endless.    Remember hydrated skin is not only healthier, it's happier too.  If you have any questions about today's supposed to snow in the comments and remember ton stay healthy, hydrated ,and gorgeous. 

Wish you could experience firmer skin that appears more youthful looking without Botox or the need for aggressive anti-aging facial injections?  Well gorgeous, you are in luck! Our NEW Peptide Repair Cream is formulated with an exceptional amount of peptides and skin-repairing ingredients that have unbelievable anti-aging effects similar to receiving facial injections like Botox.  Peptides contain growth factors that work to profoundly stimulate cell production, reviving impaired skin cells that breakdown and lose their communication speed resulting in a loss of collagen and elasticity, making the skin appear dull and more wrinkled.  So whenever Peptides are applied to the skin consistently, collagen and elastin fiber proteins become stimulated resulting in firmer and more plump skin, especially around the eye area.    If you feel like you’ve done everything imaginable to combat the effects of stress, wrinkles, fine lines, and aging skin, then this product is going to a total game changer for you. (Watch video below to hear my story on how I created these Peptides, and how I almost didn’t bring them to market).    This “botox in a bottle” will renew your skin, giving it the ability to look and feel younger than it actually is. Say goodbye to dull, dehydrated skin and hello to your supple, radiant complexion with our Peptide Repair Cream.   When our Peptide Repair Cream is combined with weekly exfoliation and using other active ingredients like Vitamin A, B and C, they will dramatically cushion your skin, create elasticity, boost firmness through collagen production, shrink pore size, and significantly decrease inflammation, redness, and irritation.   Watch your wrinkles, fine lines, and other skincare concerns slowly fade away as this collagen and elastin-building cream deeply penetrates your skin cells, flooding them with the nourishment and hydration they long for.    Next time you go out and get a cocktail with your girls, be prepared to get carded. Sweetheart, the truth is, avoiding facial injections for a few years is now a possibility when using Peptide Repair Cream.  As always if you need help or have any questions just reach out gorgeous!

HOW TO ACHIEVE DRAMATIC RESULT WHEN USING VITAMIN C SERUM Hello gorgeous!  Today I wanted to talk about Vitamin C, its benefits, and how to properly use it so you achieve dramatic results when using this proven anti-aging and skin brightening ingredient.  To begin with, vitamin C is a potent antioxidant commonly used in skincare. It has a plethora of benefits that are listed down below. Plumps your skin, resulting in a more youthful appearance Targets pigmentation by evening skin tone and texture Brightens your skin to achieve that natural glow Tightens your skin, stimulating collagen and reducing the impacts of aging Protects your skin against free radical damage and environmental stressors, minimizing the formation of fine lines and wrinkles Hydrates your skin, improving overall health Vitamin C is a powerful skincare ingredient that when used properly, has the power to dramatically improve your skin concerns. You want to apply more acidic antioxidants, like Vitamin C, which is L-ascorbic acid, both in the morning and night.   Apply immediately after cleansing, toning, or exfoliating to achieve the best results. Thoroughly work the product into your skin, especially concentrating on areas that need the most help.   Allow the Vitamin C to fully absorb into the skin for at least 3-5 minutes and wait before applying other products.  Why should you wait before applying other products? Because applying other products too soon can alter the pH of the antioxidant, making it less effective. After the product is absorbed, you may continue with the rest of your skincare routine. Overall, using an antioxidant, especially our Vitalizing B & C Serum, helps to exfoliate, prevent damage, repair, and hydrate your skin. That knocks out four out of six steps of our Montarbo Method! If you want to take advantage of this tip, we have a discount code for you to use on one of our most popular antioxidant serums. Use the code ANTIOXIDANT to receive 15% off. We hope this tip helps and we are so excited to see you get one step closer to feeling like the confident, radiant, and wonderful person you are.

It breaks my heart to see Intelligent people blowing money on the latest and most expensive skincare products only to ruin their skin and results they have achieved by not wearing sunscreen correctly.     We all know that wearing the correct amount of sunscreen has been proven to prevent premature aging, pigmentation, skin cancer, and wrinkles.  However with that being said, I am confused and concerned by how many people still don’t apply enough sunscreen and when they do, it's often done incorrectly.    After 20 year in the skincare industry working with thousands of clients, It seems like people develop a little amnesia when it comes to using sunscreen.   They either forget to use it altogether, how to apply it properly, or how much sunscreen is needed to protect the skin from UV damage that causes pigmentation, premature aging, and cancer.    Truth is, if you are using expensive skincare products now but don't use sunscreen perfectly, you are wasting money and ruining your results by not protecting your skin properly.    So today I thought it would be fun to share my first 3 Important Sunscreen Tips That Most People Forget so you get this right. Please read my tips and watch the video below.  I have 6 more sunscreen tips coming soon and hope today's tips will inspire you to be more serious about wearing sunscreen and sun safety.(  If you want to learn how I recommend applying sunscreen, watch this quick 60 second video here. )  I promise If you follow my sunscreen tips you'll be able to achieve healthy and more youthful-looking skin for years to come while sustaining the results you have already achieved.  3 IMPORTANT SUNSCREEN TIPS THAT MOST PEOPLE FORGET  1. If you know you are going to be outside at the pool, the beach, or if you know you are going to be very  active in the sun going for a hike or run, apply sunscreen 15 minutes before you go outside.  This will allow the chemicals enough time to absorb into the skin so that they can effectively reflect or absorb UV radiation. If you apply sunscreen while already outside in the sun, girl it's too late!  We see many innocent people getting frustrated that their melasma or sun-damage is coming back because they forget that sunscreen needs to be used very specifically in order to work.  Sunscreen is classified as a drug by the FDA and just like any medication, they need to be used as directed and prescribed in order to be effective.  Also, did you know that if you apply a ton of face cream and then immediately apply your SFP, you are effectively cutting the SPF protection in half? Allow your face cream to soak in for a few minutes before applying SPF  2. If you are prone to melasma, sun-damage, or a specific skin concern that you are trying to protect or prevent, ( like driver side sun-damage, sun spots or pigmentation ), always apply sunscreen all over your face, then apply more to those areas to help give an added layer or sunscreen protection.  3. Don't forget to apply sunscreen to your ears!  Most people forget to apply sunscreen to their ears and behind their ears which is the number one place we see suspicious moles, freckles and actinic keratoses develop which can or will eventually become cancerous if not checked and properly diagnosed.  Watch my quick 60 second video explaining everything in today post.     Alright gorgeous! Thank you for allowing me to ramble on about sunscreen today. I'm curious what you learned or enjoyed most from today’s post? Have a glorious day gorgeous! Also let me know if you have any questions about today’s post or about sunscreen in general as I love answering all of your questions.  Much love to you beautiful,  Cody Montarbo
