The ingredients in all of Yosep’s products are carefully curated to make sure you have everything you need and nothing that you don’t. One of the ampoules we want to present today, the Protective Ampoule, has only two active ingredients. You don’t need a million ingredients to achieve a positive result and this is what Yosep is all about. All the goodness of natural ingredients without nonessentials. Days 2 & 8 and days 3 & 9 of the Enchanted 15 Day Treatment use the Nutrient and Protective Ampoules.

Nutrient Ampoule (Days 2 & 8):

• Sodium Hyaluronate: Hydraulic acid is a polysaccharide, a natural component of the dermis, whose main function is to collect water, thus regulating the level of hydration and maintaining the skin structure.

• Hydrolyzed Collagen: Improves the elasticity of the skin. Increases moisture retention. Provides a silky smooth appearance to the skin and reduces irritation and cracking caused by soaps.

• Sodium PCA: Naturally moisturizes the epidermis, helping to provide softness and smoothness to dry, wrinkled or cracked skin.

• Biosaccharide Gum-1: Polysaccharide with a high content of fucose, galactose and galacturonic acid that provide powerful hydration even to the most sensitive skin. It has restructuring and anti-aging properties, since it increases cell longevity thanks to the stimulation of sirtuins-1.

Protective Ampoule (Days 3 & 9):

• Hydrolyzed Collagen: Provides smoothness and firmness to the skin. Improves the elasticity of the skin. Increases moisture retention and strengthens tissues. Provides a smooth and silky appearance to the skin.

• Albumin: Tensor effect and filmogenic capacity, which prevents transepidermal water loss.

The Nutrient Ampoule’s ingredients focus on hydration, moisture and moisture retention while the Protective Ampoule’s ingredients also focus on hydration and moisture retention. These ingredients, which focus on your body’s water intake, lead us into our Mindfulness idea for the week - Mindfulness Through Art! Here are two printable mindfulness coloring pages with images of waves. Get as creative as you want - water is not always blue - it is whatever color you mind and soul perceive it is right now. Remember to clear your mind and think of your body hydrating and being at peace while you work on your art. Click on the image to download a PDF.

Hydration is the key to staying healthy. Drinking 8 glasses of water a day helps maintain your body well hydrated and improves your overall health. Sometimes it’s hard to remember to drink enough water. A good way to make sure you get enough H2O is to carry a bottle of water. We love the environment so we suggest a reusable bottle. You can get a fancy one for very little that will keep your water nice and cool for hours!

Our face, like the rest of our body, needs moisture. One of the ampoules in Yosep’s Enchanted 15 Day Treatment is a Hydrating Ampoule used on days 1 and 7 of the 15 day treatment. The four active ingredients in this ampoule are:

• Witch Hazel Extract: Contains antioxidant properties and helps with the treatment of aging and wrinkles.

• Hydrating Plants Extract: Combination of English Ivy, Arnica Montana, Elderberry, Mallow, Largeleaf Linden, Cucumber, and Lichwort. Helps regulate transepidermal water loss. Hydrates, decongests and has anti-aging properties.

• Desensitizing Plants Extract: Combination of St. John’s Wort, Chamomile, Calendula, Largeleaf Linden, and Cornflower. It improves the comfort of the skin and regulates the hydric balance of the skin.

• Amniotic Fluid: Contains moisturizing and emollient properties due to its high protein and amino acid content. It has a biostimulant and trophic effect. Helps to repair the stratum corneum.

Starting the Enchanted 15 Day Treatment with the Hydrating Ampoule allows your skin to get some great moisture to begin its transformation. The plants used in both the Hydrating Plants Extract and the Desensitizing Plants Extract are known for their amazing healing properties.

To practice mindfulness this week, find a good water bottle and try to hydrate daily. It is a simple thing we can do to improve our health. If you need to keep track of your daily water consumption, here’s a nice chart.
