The sun can be our best friend, providing our bodies with many essential vitamins; but, it can also be our worst enemy causing painful burns, life-threatening sun damage, or those unattractive age spots. Also known as “those things we all try to avoid like the plague!”

The June issue of European Men’s Health Magazine mentions OLEHENRIKSEN’s hands forward creme as a way great way to impress the ladies! They talk about how a swanky restaurant and smooth moves will come to nothing if your hands look like they’ve gone toe-to-toe with a meat grinder!

And let me tell you – it’s true! For a man, your hands signal to us ladies how well you take care of yourself!

“The hands are always exposed to the elements on a daily basis and therefore are more prone to showing the signs of aging if not properly cared for,” says Ole, “and if you want to tell a person’s true age, all you need to do is look at their hands!”

Here at OLEHENRIKSEN our hands forward creme – SPF 15 is a sun care product specifically designed for your hands! Not only does the hands forward creme soften and smooth your skin with shea butter, but it also stimulates cell renewal with sugar maple extract.

Now, are you sitting down for this one? One of the main ingredients in the hands forward creme is kojic acid which is known to fade discoloration, even skin tone and correct/prevent hyper-pigmentation.

So don’t worry ladies and gents! If you haven’t been using SPF on your hands and you happen to have a little sun damage, our creme can reverse the signs of aging!

How about that for good news on a Wednesday?

Have you ever looked at a celebrity like Eva Mendes and asked yourself how she gets her skin to be so absolutely perfect? Well, look no further for the answer! Eva swears by OLEHENRIKSEN products like our blue/black berry enzyme mask to slough off any lingering dry patches in the January 2010 issue of ASOS magazine.

“Exfoliating is one of the best investments you can make for your skin’s future,” says Ole. There are so many benefits! Exfoliating helps oxygenate the skin, helps with blood circulation, skin cell turn-over and contributing to that stunning natural glow!

After using the product last night, I couldn't wait to spotlight the mask today! Not only did it completely eradicate any dry skin on my face, but it really calmed any irritation issues I was having! I stepped into the office thanking my lucky stars and asking myself why I didn’t use the product earlier! Now I can go out tonight feeling confident that my skin is looking the best it has looked in the longest time! What a treat!

The blue/black berry enzyme mask contains papaya enzyme, which gets rid of those dead skin cells, hyaluronic acid which powerfully binds moisture to the skin, and lavender extract which acts as an anti-inflammatory! Let’s not forget the showcase ingredient—blue/blackberry extract! This ingredient helps with oxygenating, smoothing and refining the skin's texture.

You’ll want to apply a generous layer of the mask on freshly cleansed skin, leave it on for 20 minutes, rinse with warm water and have an "ah-ha moment!"
