Mother’s Day is just around the corner – May 12, 2103!  It’s such a wonderful gesture to dedicate a whole day to honor mothers around the world.  Ever wonder how this official day actually originated? 

The earliest origins of Mother’s Day trace all the way back to the ancient Greek and Romans.  Apparently, during ancient Greek and Roman times, “festivals were held in honor of the mother goddesses Rhea and Cybele, but the clearest modern precedent for Mother’s Day is the early Christian festival known as “Mothering Sunday.” Once a major tradition in the United Kingdom and parts of Europe, this celebration fell on the fourth Sunday in Lent and was originally seen as a time when the faithful would return to their “mother church”—the main church in the vicinity of their home—for a special service. Over time the Mothering Sunday tradition shifted into a more secular holiday, and children would present their mothers with flowers and other tokens of appreciation. This custom eventually faded in popularity before merging with the American Mother’s Day in the 1930s and 1940s.” History.com

More recently, we can thank a loving daughter with no children of her own, Anna Jarvis, known as the “founder” of Mother’s Day in the US.  Learn more about Anna and the history behind Mother’s Day at Mother’s Day Celebration.com.

DECLÉOR honors mothers by providing them with natural skincare products for women and mothers of all ages.  From women in their 20′s to 50+, DECLÉOR has comprehensive collections of skincare products to address all signs of aging, including first signs of aging, wrinkles, skin sagging, hyperpigmentation, dryness and sensitivity.  Not all skin ages at the same rate – some have the good graces of genetics and great nutritional habits – therefore, we do not associate “aging of the skin” with the actual age of the person.  That said, we have designed skincare products for targeted concerns commonly seen among women in their 30′s, 40′s and 50′s.  For young mothers in their 30’s, our Expression de L’Age line addresses first and early signs of aging, while keeping their youthful skin radiant.  For mothers in their 40′s, our Experience de L’Age line corrects wrinkles and firms the skin where signs of aging are more visible and prominent.  And for mature mothers in their 50′s+, our Excellence de L’Age line regenerates and lifts the skin where signs of aging are clearly established.  These 3 collections are designed to treat and protect skin and target specific concerns.

Achieving radiant skin is, at times, a fragile balance. Modern lifestyles, which include factors such as stress, fatigue, pollution, and unbalanced diet, can leave their mark on the face and render it dull, tired and asphyxiated. Because of this, women want to restore their skin’s radiance, which is perceived as a sign of perfectly beautiful, healthy skin. The Life Radiance collection has been created to boost all internal and external factors responsible for the skin’s radiance.

DECLÉOR’s paraben-free, 4-step program treats the essential factors in achieving skin radiance:

1.Micro-circulation: good micro-circulation promotes an even, oxygenated complexion to restore the skin’s natural radiance

2.Reflection of light: smooth skin reflects light better

3.Protection against free radicals and pollution: helps reduce the oxidation process, to help the skin to recover its brightness

4.Skin health: to effectively renew itself the skin needs minerals, essential fatty acids and efficient natural defenses.

Discover the LIFE RADIANCE range for immediate luminosity and long lasting radiance, including exfoliation, daily protection, an intense cure and an express mask to impart a healthier, brighter and glowing complexion.  Choose from a 3 minute Flash Radiance Mask for immediate radiance or a 10-day Energizing Vitamin Cure, a radiance enhancing treatment for long term radiance.  The collection also comprises a Double Radiance Cream to protect skin and a Double Radiance Scrub to exfoliate skin while imparting radiance.

Angelica is called the “herb of angels” for good reason.  According to legend, the Archangel Raphael is said to have appeared before a monk in the 10th century and advised him to use this herb to treat people suffering from the plague.  Hence, the very apropos name, “Angelica” was given to this herb with curative properties that protected against this disease.
