The natural foods movement, once stigmatized as being a “hippie thing,” has quickly taken center stage in many average American households. Just as Americans are beginning to see the correlation between the food they eat and their health, the products they use on their skin has become increasingly scrutinized and held to higher standards.

Registered Nurses Nan Brown & Lil Bogdan have been ahead of the curve for almost ten years. L’ATHENE, anti-aging and sensitive skin care created by Nan and Lil, is pure nutrient therapy for maximum health and radiant beauty. L’ATHENE products all contain 100% pure pharamaceutical-grade natural ingredients, helping the skin help itself – naturally.

According to Nan, “I struggled with severely sensitive skin for years, even experiencing a second degree burn during a routine facial at a department store. This experience made me realize what the skin really needs: pure nutrients.” Nan and Lil, both former R.N.s at Johns Hopkins Hospital, spent years treating patients with burns and severe dermatological conditions. Through their experience at Johns Hopkins and countless months of research and development, Nan and Lil created the perfect combination of pure nutrient skin care that is also backed by science.

What Makes L’ATHENE Different?
Nan and Lil created L’ATHENE to produce quick, noticeable results with concentrated formulas that last two times longer than other skin care. L’ATHENE products are more than 99% pure, with less than 1% chemicals used only to maintain shelf life. According to Lil, “we created L’ATHENE to be natural and chemical-free because cosmeceutical ingredients in their purest form are the most potent, therefore creating the best results.” Every L’ATHENE product contains a powerful blend of vitamins, minerals, proteins and fatty acids in their purest most bioactive form, essential for skin health.

Dita Von Teese has had a long, painful road in creating her own fragrance. Back in December she was rejected by a major perfume company over fears that she wasn’t “famous enough” to carry her own line.

She told WWD.com, “What I really want to do is make my own fragrance. I don’t want to smell like anyone else. I have to talk to the smaller companies, because the bigger ones, like Coty, are like ‘Well, not everyone knows your name, like the Kardashians or Victoria Beckham.’”

Is her dream finally coming true? The burlesque beauty posted on Twitter, “Isolated at a chateau in the French countryside w/my perfumers. “No fruit, no vanilla, no candy!! Velvet sensuality w/a dash of vulgarity! I want to evoke passion with fragrance….intense love/lust and distaste/fear rather than merely popular acceptance.”

Can’t wait to see what she comes up with!
