Tips on Using Jade Rollers and Gua Sha Stones
I always found the time to use my jade roller or gua sha a few times a week in the past, even if it was for a minute before my morning shower; but fell out of routine after having my third child. Over the last year I have tried to step up my evening skincare routine. I needed to add a little bit of downtime before bed to relax and do something for me. It was the perfect time to establish a new routine and bring out my anti-aging tools :)

The Scoop on Collagen
As we age, our body slows the production of collagen, causing this essential protein to break down. The loss of collagen leads to a collapsing dermal layer, which is why our skin sags and wrinkles; our hair becomes thinner, dull or lifeless; joints stiffen and become less flexible; bones weaken and become brittle; and our body becomes less toned.
The Scoop on Progesterone
Everyone talks about low or high estrogen but progesterone often gets missed! It’s our calming hormone and it helps to get pregnant and stay pregnant. It is made by the ovaries AFTER you ovulate (after the ovary releases the egg) so it’s also known as the luteal phase hormone.
