New Skin Care Product Helps Rescue Lips

L’BRI PURE n’ NATURAL has a new product called Lip Rescue. “Lip Rescue literally soothes and moisturizes overnight,” says Jean Uhlmann, a skin care specialist from L’BRI PURE n’ NATURAL.

“The aloe vera in Lip Rescue carries all the ingredients deep into the skin. Unlike ‘chapstick’ that sits on the surface, the hyaluronic acid and antioxidants lock in moisture and improve the texture, even the fine lines above your top lip.” says Uhlmann.

“You can’t make dead skin come alive; you have to remove it, so I’ve been using our lip exfoliator first, then applying Lip Rescue overnight. I feel less need to keep reapplying a balm all day long,” says Uhlmann.

As a company, L’BRI PURE n’ NATURAL prides themselves with having aloe vera as the first ingredient in all of their skin care products. They also state they don’t contain harmful chemicals or parabens, are cruelty free, and made in the USA. 

To receive a free express aloe vera facial or more information on other L’BRI PURE n’ NATURAL products, call 864-985-9777 or visit: http://LBri.com/EveryBodyFitnessSkin.

Holistic Dentist Offers Nitric Oxide Test in Greenville

Palmer Distinctive Dentistry is offering a free test to see if you are deficient in nitric oxide–a free radical and colorless gas that is one of the principal oxides of nitrogen. 

“Nitric oxide is naturally produced in our body, but as we age, lack of leafy greens and improper nasal breathing can impact our levels, says Karyn Moore, RDH, HIAOMT, at Palmer Distinctive Dentistry. “Nitric oxide is a natural vasodilator that aids in blood circulation and when depleted, affects all organs at the cellular level. Adequate nitric oxide levels are essential to our overall health,” says Moore.

The team at Palmer Distinctive Dentistry is a holistic dental care practice set in a relaxing environment that promotes general health and well-being for the whole person, not just your teeth.

Palmer Distinctive Dentistry is located at 134 Milestone Way in Greenville. For your free nitric oxide test or more information, call 864-879-6494 or visit: https://www.palmerdmd.com.

Historic Building in Woodruff Getting a New Look On Life

Coldwell Banker Caine has purchased and is in the process of revitalizing 140 S. Main Street in Woodruff. This building was originally constructed in 1901 and served as the first financial institution in the town of Woodruff. It then closed during the Great Depression and has been used as a commercial space as of late, before sitting empty. Now, it is set to be nominated to the National Register of Historic Places as part of Woodruff Historic District.  

Coldwell Banker Caine isn’t the only one moving in to help with the revitalization of the community’s town center. Other big names like Starbucks (Est. 2022) and Tractor Supply (Est. 2020) have planted their roots in Woodruff, sprinkled amongst some well-known local shops including The Yellow Butterfly and Woods Thrift.

“Why is there suddenly so much attention on Woodruff, SC?” asks Kiersten Bell, a Realtor® with Coldwell Banker Caine (Williams St. Division). “BMW recently announced that they are pouring $1.7 billion into the area for their electric vehicles initiative, so lots of new homes and employment opportunities will soon be headed this way. Another positive note about Woodruff is that it was named as the #1 safest place to live in South Carolina by Safewise,” exclaims Bell.

“We’re proud to be a part of preserving a little bit of history in this community, while bringing some new life to Woodruff, which looks like a very promising future,” Bell says.

Youth Life Coach Launches Business in the Upstate

Together with Coach Heather, a youth life coaching service, was recently launched to support teens, tweens, and young adults who are struggling for direction. Life coaching can help clients to move forward, develop goals, and be held accountable through goal achievement.

“I’m excited to add more value to the Greenville community by guiding young people to grow as confident, critically-thinking problem solvers,” says Heather Cotugno, Certified Youth Resilience Coach and owner of Together with Coach Heather.

Formerly a special education teacher, Cotugno now coaches middle and high school aged students as well as young adults who have a variety of pressures–school, social, family, work, sports, and more. “It can be difficult to deal with these struggles on their own. Parents with the best intentions may struggle to get through to their child, and studies have shown, youth with more significant adults in their lives are more likely to make good decisions,” says Cotugno. As a life coach, Cotugno uses her skills and passions to help young people feel their best internally while living a gratifying life externally. “Instead of feeling stuck in one situation after the next, youth life coaching gives clients an opportunity to move forward with clarity, learning what works best for them and gaining self-belief,” exclaims Cotugno. 

Parent coaching and education sessions to help build strong communication in the home environment are also available. Coaching sessions may be held in person or via video call when convenient. 

For a free consultation and more information about Together with Coach Heather, call 864-202-6595 or visit: https://togetherwithcoachheather.com.
