Having an amazing daytime skincare routine is ESSENTIAL to the development of healthy, glowing skin. The Elemis Pro-Collagen range is a collection of products that cleanse; hydrate, repair and even provide prevention of future skin woes.
For instance, every product in the line aims to boost collagen. Now collagen is beneficial for several reasons. It can help reduce wrinkles as well as signs of aging, improve digestion, strengthen hair and gut plus joint health. Essentially all over, collagen can do a body good.
Nonetheless, when it comes to skin, that is where collagen really shines. Literally… helps give the dermis more elasticity, vibrancy, glow, less dryness; which in turn makes you appear more “youthful.” So then, using skincare products with this effective element can give you a real edge in the beauty arena.

If there is one thing you should takeaway from this article it’s this, “What you focus on, is what you will get.” Seriously, if you are all over the place like a bag of spilled marbles; how do you expect to actually get anything done for real? May sound blunt, may sound harsh; however, after reading why this is the case, you will be happy about getting a little tough love. For years, the idea of being a multi tasker has been praised as some sort of superhuman ability; that can not only save time, but make you more of a working powerhouse.
Wrong. While in theory being a multi tasker sounds legit, it can actually cause you to get less done. Self-improvement and science author, James Clear, put it this way,
“Your outcomes are a lagging measure of your habits. Your net worth is a lagging measure of your financial habits. Weight is a lagging measure of your eating habits. [Also] your knowledge is a lagging measure of your learning habits. You get what you repeat.”
Therefore, what you habitually do with your time and efforts is what you will get out of them. However, if you are constantly and repeatedly “doing too much,” spinning your wheels and not getting anywhere. You are basically going to be stuck. Looking forward and backward, but not making any ground.
Multi Tasker- Why Being One WILL NOT Make You More Successful
The following diagram really illustrates the importance of not being lured by the finesse or idea of multitasking. As one can see, Worker 1 is choosing to be more focused on one given task at a time. Then takes a break in order to recharge or do “lesser” activities.
Worker 2 is trying to accomplish multiple things at once. Starts one task then easily gets distracted doing something else. In the end, Worker 2 works just as hard (if not harder) and gets less accomplished.
The lesson? Work smarter, not harder. Instead of trying to be a multi tasker; aim to prioritize what is most important. Next, block off times for intense focus in order to REALLY hone in and get your work done.
This means no phone or any distractions. Don’t think having access to apps and your emails can make you work less efficiently? Well, back in the early 2000s, James Clear, spoke about a study which showed that average people check their emails every five minutes.
Further, when checking their emails it was sucking up about 64 seconds in order to get back to any previous tasks. Simply put, people could waste 1 out 6 minutes just checking emails. If that was the stats, back then, you can assume it’s even worse now.
Multi Tasker- Why Being One WILL NOT Make You More Successful (Continued)
Besides emails today we have photo sharing, tweets, DMs, texts and snaps. You may soon find yourself losing more than just one minute. So then, do not be fooled. Multitasking or double tasking does not work and can make you less productive.
Learn to focus. Focus on doing what is actually going to make you more successful and limit any distractions. You are only going to get what you focus on SOLELY. If blogging is your money maker, then dedicate a serious block of time to blogging. Or if you are a social media darling, then by golly get social and really make it count!
The point is, no matter what it is you want in life, you have to have a solid plan and eagle eye focus to get it. Someone climbing Everest isn’t looking around at a surrounding mountain and deciding to go climb it. Then get to the second mountain and decide to go back to Everest. Sounds silly right? This climber will never get to the top of either peak.
However, this is how some approach their work. Climbing towards their goal, but stopping to go tackle something else. Instead of being a silly climber, carve out good work ethic and practices; focus on what’s most important- one task at a time- and watch the magic happen.

Know your worth, then add tax. No one demonstrates or proves this saying more than former MSNBC correspondent, Tamron Hall. Tamron shocked the industry when she walked away from the network after her top-rated show was unexpectedly cut; in order to make way and open up a time slot for Megyn Kelly. Now Hall is getting the last laugh because major entertainment giant, Disney is inking a development deal for the creation of the Tamron Hall Daytime Show!
Melanin Magic: Disney Partners for Tamron Hall Daytime Show
Don’t call it a comeback. Hall left MSNBC with her head held high and with the belief that something better would eventually come her way. At first, she may have assumed it was in the form of additional monetary gain from MSNBC. The network had offered her a multiyear AND multimillion dollar deal to stay put. However, the sting and pinch of her show’s removal was all the motivation the talented Hall needed to move on.
Her move is definitely paying off now. Disney/ABC is giving fans want they want… more Tamron screen time! Their development deal with Hall will secure a brand new talk show during primetime day hours. Tamron is most excited over this development and took time to talk about as well as thank her supporters. She states,
“Thank you Team Tamron. For over a year, you kept supporting my efforts. This is our next chapter, one we’ll write together! I’m so thrilled to partner with Disney/ABC to create a daytime television show that’s unconventional, fun, intimate and sometimes even raw.
My new partners appreciate and respect the relationship I’ve built with my audience and know that if we create television worth watching, they’ll join us for the ride. I’m so grateful and excited for this next chapter. The landing makes the leap of faith so worth it!”
Amazing! We hope that this story of Hall’s triumph will inspire you to reach for new heights and milestones for yourself as well. Like Tamron you can do anything, all you have to do is believe and keep pushing forward.

Have you ever felt like you didn’t quite fit in? Do you wish to authentically dance to the beat of your own drum? Well then, the InStyle Magazine September 2018 issue is so for you!
It features supermodel, Imaan Hammam, as it’s cover girl for the month. Shot in gorgeous Cuba, Imaan dazzles in the leopard print trend by donning an ensemble by fashion label, Moschino. However, you will not want to just marvel at Imaan’s stunning cover. Dig inside as she talks about life, career, her heritage and how she finally feels free.
Beautiful Black Women: Imaan Hammam Covers InStyle Magazine September 2018
Taking the modeling industry by storm is not easy. You have to have a certain essence, look, a … je ne sais quoi about yourself. Nevertheless, most models know that in order to “make it” they have to conform to a particular standard of beauty. Well, what if you don’t fit it?
InStyle’s September issue discusses just that. The mag released this statement in order to give a preview to their exclusive with Hammam:
“Throughout her seven years in fashion, model Imann Hammam has racked up a holy grail list of resume highlights. But nothing has shaped her career quite like the first time she let her now signature curls loose on the job.
‘Stylists would straighten my hair because they didn’t know how to work with my texture,’ the half Moroccan, half Egyptian beauty says of her early modeling days. ‘My hair was always damaged,’ she tells Allison Syrett on the cover of one of our special September subscriber issues.
Finally she had enough. ‘I was like, “You know what? I’m going to go natural for this test shoot.” And everyone was like, ‘Oh my god, Imaan, this is your look from now on… this is you!'”
Authenticity looks good on model, Imaan Hammam. After years of feeling insecure about being ‘the girl with the different hair and skin color,’ she’s never been more comfortable with herself.
And now she wants to show other girls that it’s okay not to fit in too; as she tells Allison Syrett in our September issue. ‘I’ve become a woman with a big platform. And I want to use it to help those facing the same struggles I had.’ To see more from her shoot in beautiful Cuba and read the full story on how the [she] came into her own [see] the link.”
