Check Out Greta's Skincare Tips!

Issue #26 - There's No Such Thing as Bad Press

Thanksgiving was only a few days away and Greta was visiting her parents in Connecticut, far away from L.A. and out of harm's way -- or so she thought. Today was the day the latest issue of Face Magazine would hit the newsstands--the issue containing her expose on Zane Craven. She knew that once the story came to light, she would be out of a job. After all, she had told the world about his wild behavior, the late night carousing, and his outrageous Malibu parties.

Greta woke up in her childhood bedroom to the sound of her mother's laughter. "Oh, Greta's it's great!" she cried, coming into the room with a big stack of Face Magazines.

"You like it?" Greta asked, quickly taking a copy and flipping open to the page that featured her article and a full page photograph of Zane Craven, looking dangerous in a torn tee shirt, faded jeans, cowboy boots and that famously ironic half-smile.

"I love it," her mother laughed. "He really is naughty!"
Greta looked closely at her mother. She was so glad she had such a fun and young looking mom. Just like Greta, her mother was a devotee of GreatSkin and always began her mornings with GreatSkin's Oxygen Revitalizing Cleanser. It was a refreshing and invigorating cleanser--great for all ages, but especially good for women her mom's age who'd been exposed to sun damage. Next Greta's mom applied Vital Hydrant Toner. It contained a blend of ginseng, ginkgo and rosemary extracts and truly refreshed her skin. And last night, both Greta and her mom had treated themselves to a GreatSkin Pore Refining Pumpkin Mask. It put them both in the Thanksgiving mood with its wonderful pumpkin pie fragrance and deep cleansing warmth that left their skin glowing. After this, they applied GreatSkin's All Day Moisture Lotion, a light weight crème, perfect for all skin types, but best of all it contained bio peptides that stimulate collagen production. And finally, last night, Greta tried out a gift from her mom--GreatSkin's Night Renewal Cream.

Greta stood up and caught a quick glimpse of herself in the mirror. She could feel how the cream had replenished her skin's vital nutrients with a delicious blend of minerals and natural plant extracts. Yes, Greta felt ready for anything--even the wrath of Zane once he read her expose.

Suddenly, the phone rang. Greta froze. Greta's mom answered it and then handed it to her daughter, with a whisper. "It's Zane Craven."

Greta took the phone. "Hi Zane," she said quickly. "Listen, about the article in Face-- I'm sorry, but you know I am a journalist and I have to write the truth…"

But Zane quickly interrupted. "Greta! I love it!"

"But I say all those awful things about your bad reputation!"

"Yeah, I couldn't have paid for better publicity, Greta, and you know what? I want you to go with me to Cannes as my press liaison! What do you say?"

"France in the spring," Greta murmured. How could she refuse?

And what would Guy say?

Take Greta's advice and practice these health & beauty tips to look and feel your best:

• Get a professional facial from your esthetician once a month
• Perform a mini facial (including a scrub and mask) at least 3x weekly
• Apply a C Serum product & sunblock daily
• Use anti oxidants to combat skin aging (FYI - aging starts in your twenties!)
• Never go to bed without removing makeup to make sure your pores stay unclogged
• Always cleanse your skin twice in both the morning and night so important serums can penetrate effectively (and follow with a toner to re-establish Ph balance and hydrate). Our Oxygen Revitalizing Cleanser and Vital Hydrant Toner are on sale this month!
• Use an eye cream and drink eight glasses of water every day
• Sleep on your back to avoid developing lines and wrinkles from pillow and sheets
