It is such a beautiful time of year.. with the cooler weather and brisk mornings! At least it is here in Austin, TX!
We had some frost on our pumpkins just this morning!
We are down to (2) pups now- 13 weeks old! The other (3) all have fabulous homes.. one of the last ones will go to my In-law's home for them to share with our Nephew, Kenny!
He has named her "Austyn"! Our home has been filled with puppies and fun!

BROUGHT TO YOU BY FITNESS BOTANICAL
SKIN CARE CO.
Motion Medica Skin
Care
www.motionmedica.com
It's obvious how great exercise is for a healthy strong
body and mind. But some side effects of exercise are not particularly beneficial
for your skin.
When you exercise your cardiovascular system rushes
freshly oxygenated blood to the surface to feed your muscles. Because of the
high amount of oxygen content the bright red blood plumps up your skin making it
larger and thicker. Perspiration naturally occurs to cool off your body and
expels salt, oils and natural toxins. These natural functions brought on by
exercise and heat can cause a variety of consequences to your skin.
Oily Skin-Oily skin becomes oilier as the salts and acids mix with
sebum (natural oil the body produces) which glues down dead skin cells
(keratinocytes) creating a coating akin to plastic wrap on the
skin.
Acne/Pimples- tend to worsen because the swollen skin irritates
the existing pimples and helps to create new breakouts which can be larger or
painful.
Dry Skin
- Dry skin becomes more prominent, irritated, flaky and
rough due to the high amount of salts and acids deposited on the skin via
sweat.
Acne
Rosacea-
Outdoor exercise in a humid or warm climate will exacerbate
this condition causing the skin to appear more red and irritated.
Plastic Surgery/Laser
Redefining- Aging skin that has been corrected by these methods must
stay out of the sun to avoid new damage. Outdoor exercise with sun exposure
should be stopped and exercise activity brought indoors. The increased blood
flow from exercise and sun exposure will cause swelling and dehydrated skin and
skin is more vulnerable to sun damage.
SOLUTIONS
For oily skin, as soon as you are finished working out
cleanse your skin with Motion Medica's Dermaclenz Cleanser and rinse with cool
water (not cold). Gently pat dry and apply Motion Medica's Sage & Citrus
moisturizer to control oil and prevent dryness. Exfoliate once a day to remove
dead skin cells with Motion Medica's AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser at post
workout.
For acne and pimples cleanse with Motion Medica's
Dermaclenz Cleanser or for combination sensitive skin with acne Motion Medica's
Oxygen Revitalizing Cleanser. Exfoliate with the Honey Almond Scrub and allow
the scrub to set on skin for 10-15 minutes at least 2-3 times a week. Apply
Camphor Treatment directly on pimples and use the Clarifying Camphor Masque
twice a week. Apply the Sage & Citrus moisturizer at pre-workout to kill off
bacteria causing acne.
For dry skincleanse with Motion Medica's Oxygen
Revitalizing Cleanser and restore water loss with Motion Medica's Restorative
Marine moisterizer. Exfoliate once a week with the AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser.
For additional softness to skin's appearance apply the Peptide Treatment before
moisterizing.
For acne rosacea cleanse with Motion Medica's Borage Leaf
Cleanser. This will deeply cleanse the pores while soothing red irritated skin.
For this skin type the moisterizer of choice would be the Sage & Citrus
moisterizer before exercise and after cleansing.
For aging skin and after plastic surgery treaments cleanse
with the Oxygen Revitalizing Cleanser. Apply the Peptide Treament twice a day
following with the Restorative Marine moisterizer. After laser surgery it is not
recommended to exfoliate especially with a product containing high amounts of
glycolic acids found in the AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser. Use the Eye &
Throat Bio Moist on eye and throat are. Most importantly avoid sun
exposure!
Be sure to follow a strict skin care regimen
with the correct products so that no residue of dead skin, oil, irritation or
dryness interferes with a glowing complexion!

Ok-- had to add this little joke in.. too cute!
Please join me in remembering a great icon of the entertainment community.
The Pillsbury Doughboy died yesterday of a yeast infection and trauma
complications from repeated pokes in the belly. He was 71.
Doughboy was buried in a lightly greased coffin.
Dozens of cel ebrities turned out to pay their respects, including Mrs.
Butterworth, Hungry Jack, the California Raisins, Betty Crocker, the Hostess
Twinkies, and Captain Crunch. The grave site was piled high with flours.
Aunt Jemima delivered the eulogy and lovingly described Doughboy as a man who
never knew how much he was kneaded. Doughboy rose quickly in show business, but
his later life was filled with turnovers.
He was not considered a very smart cookie, wasting much of his dough on
half-baked schemes. Despite being a little flaky at times, he still was a crusty
old man and was considered a positive roll model for millions.
Doughboy is survived by his wife Play Dough, three
children: John Dough, Jane Dough and Dosey Dough, plus they had one in the
oven. He is also survived by his elderly father, Pop Tart.
&nb sp;
The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes.
