Several years ago, Andy Hnilo of the skin care and beauty company Alitura first joined me in the podcast “Deer Placenta Smoothies, Smearing Colostrum On Your Face, How To Use A Clay Mask & Much More.

But Andy's been up to quite a bit since we last connected, including some very cool new formulations, an epic fragrance that I wrote about here, new face scrubs, and plenty more.

Andy Hnilo is a former athlete, model, and actor who had his life turned upside down. On March 20th, 2011, he was struck by a series of large vehicles while crossing a busy street, a trauma that resulted in seven broken ribs, a collapsed lung, and an extreme compound fracture.

Determined to come back even stronger, Andy was able to be back on the runway in less than 3 months. He was able to heal his skin by immersing himself in a diligent skincare routine that included a mineral-rich blend of four clays, organic superfoods, and nutrient-dense ingredients: a process that healed his body.

Andy is now the founder and CEO of Alitura, a company that makes life-changing skincare products with organic superfoods.

    Thank you for the great information.

    I already ordered my package!

    Any recommendation for a soggy neck?

    Thank you,

    Ben, Andy—what’s your suggested timing on shaving (morning, evening, before or after shower), and separately, how often do you recommend showering particularly when you have one “main” workout later in the day but are “greasing the groove” with mini bouts of exercise during the rest of the day?

  3. I’ve had gentle rosacea (smeared redness) on my cheeks for north of 20. I’ve pretty much attempted each skin and laser treatment accessible with next to zero outcomes. Additionally I eat a really severe meat based eating routine in trusts as I probably am aware many skin issues start from stomach wellbeing. I’ve attempted the cleaning agent and earth veil (which appears to bother/blush my face). Ideas on some other items I should try?Also I’ve heard blended audits on derma-rolling. Could you suggest this in any event, for those with gentle rosacea?

    People over 40 have built their careers and achieved their goals. But https://bestdatingsitesforover40.net/ some of them suffer because they don’t have romantic relationships after divorce or because of the lack of friends. In this case, dating sites for professionals over 40 is what you need. There are hundreds of them on the Net. That is why it can be hard to choose the right portal suitable exactly for you. If your goal is to meet singles over 40, keep reading this useful article.

  5. Ben G. says:

    I’ve had mild rosacea (blotchy redness) on my cheeks for over 20. I’ve just about tried every topical and laser treatment available with little to no results. Also I eat a pretty strict meat based diet in hopes as I know many skin issues start from gut health. I’ve tried the cleanser and clay mask (which seems to irritate/redden my face). Suggestions on any other products I should try?Also I’ve heard mixed reviews on derma-rolling. Would you recommend this even for those with mild rosacea?

    Thanks
