It’s been said that men age more gracefully than women but don’t ever believe that they enjoy getting older any more than we do. They see the same lines and wrinkles that we notice every time they look in the mirror. This Christmas you can help your man fight aging with Akamai men’s face care products.
Akamai Basics
An Ounce of Prevention is Worth a Pound of Cure. We know far too many people who have died of cancer, or who have battled and won, at great cost to themselves and their family. According to the latest research, almost half of men over the age of 55 will get cancer and over one third of women. While a small percentage are genetic, 85% of all cancer is caused by the environment and lifestyle choices. The choices you make every day increase or decrease your chances of having cancer – the products you choose to clean your house, the furnishings and cookware you choose, the personal care products you use to protect you from the sun, moisturize and clean your body, the food and meals you buy and consume, the water you drink, the air you breathe. These choices add up.
While cancer is the greatest concern, more common adverse side effects of toxic chemicals in personal care products include: premature aging of the skin, hormonal dysfunction, dermatitis, psoriasis and immune dysfunction.
We donate 1% of our sales to the Environmental Working Group to support their mission to educate and empower people to live healthier lives in a healthier environment. Their awareness campaigns, consumer guides, original research, and policy initiatives continue to change lives and industry for the better.
Akamai’s Essentials Starter Kit
This set is a multipurpose essentials men’s teeth, skin and hair. Now you can simplify your daily routine by using multipurpose products. The Essentials kit contains a mineral toothpaste, a 3 in 1 bar, and a skin fuel oil.
Skin Fuel
This special multipurpose formula is made with six (6) all natural ingredients. Packed with nutrients, this is a natural all-purpose light oil that promotes healthy skin and hair as it moisturizes, conditions and soothes.
3 in 1 Bar
Use this natural soap to shampoo, shower and shave. One bar does it all! It’s loaded with several botanical oils, and moisturizing glycerin to provide a gentle cleanse without harmful chemicals.
Fulvic Mineral Complex
Support vibrant skin, teeth and hair from the inside out with this mineral complex. Replace those nutrients that are no longer being provided through foods. This mineral complex contains 74 minerals, amino acids, organic acids, trace elements and electrolytes your body needs to function properly.
Natural Dry Brush
This natural bristle brush removes dead skin cells and helps to stimulate surface circulation, while energizing the lymphatic system. Stimulation improves the circulation and increases the blood flow to your skin encouraging skin cell turnover and renewal.
Mineral Toothpaste
While this toothpaste doesn’t look or taste like toothpaste, it gently whitens and polishes teeth while reducing plaque and tartar, leaving a fresh taste. It’s made with a natural clay based formula that absorbs toxins and fights bad bacteria that can lead to tooth decay, gum disease and bad breath.
My Thoughts:
As much as I battle the signs from aging, my husband is showing his age too. As part of our kick start for 2019, we are both committed to taking better care of ourselves. To help him get started, he is using the Akamai Basics starter kit which includes all the essentials to care for his teeth, skin and hair.
Since my husband travels about 20 days a month, using the 3 in 1 soap was first product that caught his attention. Being able to use the same product to shampoo his hair, clean his body, and shave..well that was something he couldn’t wait to try.
He reported back after a recent trip that he really liked the 3 in 1 Bar. It was strong enough for his oily hair and skin yet creamy enough to protect his face when shaving. Also using one product instead of three, saves space in his bag as well as money. The soap is made from natural plant oils and is both toxin and fragrance free.
Another product that does double duty is the Skin Fuel. This oil works as a face and body moisturizer, aftershave, hair conditioner, and beard oil. It is non greasy and absorbs quickly. I liked the scent so much that I have my own bottle now. You can smell the argon in it which is light and fades quickly leaving the area soft and moisturized.
The Natural Dry Brush was something my husband had never tried. He read about the benefits of brushing your skin and knew that it helped to stimulate circulation and remove dead skin. He agreed to give it a shot and brushed his skin every day for a week. After the week, he said he noticed his skin wasn’t as itchy and flaky. He felt it was worth the few minutes it took and thought it would be something he would continue to do, especially in the winter when he suffers from dry skin.
Also in the kit is the Mineral Toothpaste. Made with a natural clay based formula, it isn’t sweet like other toothpaste. The clay based formula absorbs toxins and kills the bacteria that causes bad breath and decay.
The remaining product in the start kit is the Fulvic Mineral Complex. Honestly, although this product is packed with nutrients which support healthy skin, teeth and hair; it does take some getting used to using. The coloring is dark and it has a strange taste which I am sure are the nutrients and minerals. It’s not bad; just strong and should be either applied topically or diluted in filtered water or juice.
After using the products for about two weeks, my husband says, “These products, especially the 3 in 1 soap and Skin Fuel are impressive”. That’s about as excited as he gets, so he will be continuing to use these products to help fight aging and improve his health.
