The Ultimate Holiday Anti-Aging Gift Guide | 2019
Hi I’m Darnell Cox is live young lifestyle
and I’m here today doing my 2019
anti-aging best holiday gifts we do this
every year I love doing this I just want
to start off the bat by saying like
thank you to my makeup artist who always
puts on a silly holiday oh you’re
welcome supports me and thank you to my
my husband who I adore who supports me
in more ways than I can begin to tell
you on camera and to our camera guys
hello okay so my first big anti-aging
gift it’s been on my list every single
year it is the best skincare in the
world and I just want to remind
everybody I am NOT a brand ambassador
for anybody I do not get paid for saying
this I’m a guinea pig do this anti-aging
world for as long as I can remember and
this is hands-down the best skin care
line this is the co skin health I’m
gonna have all the links to the products
below the reason why I love these kits
is because it becomes a no brainer of
skincare it makes a really good gift so
they have three different kits one is
the daily skincare this is like this is
like word though if you’re new to
skincare and you just don’t know what
you’re doing did you go to this one what
is the anti-aging program so that’s for
you cheering in your 30s you’re kind of
getting your stuff together this is my
kit this is the one that I use this is
the aggressive anti-aging kit this is it
because go big or go home folks then it
comes with all of these great products
down here there’s an inflexion renewal
pad so many products in this and it’s
all anti-aging you will see a difference
in your skin I guarantee you I’m not
gonna give you the prices of anything
because these aren’t my products these
are just products that I love so if you
click down in the description and you
scroll down I’ll have links to
everything and you can you know figure
out how much they cost at that point men
and women yes men as well you have it
men have to take care of their skin as
well so next is if you’re going to spend
the money
on great skincare you have to be able to
preserve it and make sure that it’s at
its most potent form so this is the cold
Cosmetic mini-fridge I love this you
open this it plugs in and you can keep
all of your cosmetics you did and I love
this eye cream but it’s so much better
when you keep it cold
it is so it deep puffs instantly and not
only that but it helps to preserve your
product so there are some products that
you know there there’s an expiration on
them and no it’s for a beer but if you
want to take your products on on the
road as well it actually plugs into a
car lighter oh my gosh for road beer if
you are serious about your skincare and
you’re taking a road trip trust me I’m
using this it also has a little shelf
but my products are a little bit too
tall but you can insert that shelf as
well and but the idea is that products
will go bad or they’re easier they’re
better and more potent if they’re cold
what’s the different products will go
bad so you have a seee through like acid
you want to keep that in a dark place
and you also want to keep it cool all
your retinoids you want to keep cool
your eye creams are more effective if
they’re cold so it can also separate yes
yes so this is a bit and it this is it’s
it’s so easily on your bathroom counter
it comes in pink and also white moving
on so I’m a big fan of nurse Jamie you
just saw her up lift in the door of this
fridge this is the nurse Jamie uplift
body comes with batteries and it
vibrates it’s a massaging beauty tool so
she has one that you just roll on your
face which is in there
this one actually massages and
stimulates and it it helps you lymphatic
lead rain everywhere yes she’s got
really good like anti-aging gadgets why
is it it like you know they stimulate
collagen bacteria but this is the ionics
nurse Jamie massaging beauty tool all
you do is touch it to your skin hold on
to the middle somewhere yeah oh yeah
vibration
oh there you go yeah so it kind of opens
up your eyes it wakes your eyes up so in
the morning when I put on after I put on
my very cold eye cream I use this to
kind of massage it all in it opens the
eye it has like that smart touch Jenny
at work doing great honey really good
yeah I love this this is the nurse Jamie
ionics I’m massaging beauty tool okay
this is a teacher dr. Mark Hyman he
spoke in my school the integrative
Institute of nutrition in New York many
many times I’ve seen many of his
lectures he wrote a book called food
what the heck should I eat I thought I
was getting to eat one the eat one is
amazing but if you already know what to
eat then you’re gonna this is the sequel
you’re gonna want this so I’m gonna put
the links of both of these books down
there there’s so much conflicting you
know evidence of what we’re supposed to
eat do we eat paleo do we eat vegan are
we keto are we you know what is going on
and he kind of breaks it all down and
cuts through all the marketing of the
food industry and let lets you know
genetically what are we supposed to be
eating what’s great for us how our food
has changed over the years what used to
be food is now poison and it really
tells you what we’re supposed to be
eating so once you figure that out
I’ll also have the link and then you
don’t have you can do this book of food
what the heck can I cook Jenny give me
an hour between one and three hundred
one hundred one hundred crazy sexy trail
Meg yes Marc yes we need some creature
shows you how to make trail mix I love
that okay this is a great this is a
great gift
so speaking of what the heck you should
eat or what the heck you should cook you
know is there’s a lot of evidence that
says how good this is for you is in
terms of being an antioxidant so if you
have a chocolate lover in your family I
know yes you do well what I love about
if you give if you give chocolate as a
gift if you find a holiday bowl that
they can reuse
then it’s like it’s something that’s
also left behind besides just the
rappers but I also love the fact that
the chocolates in here you can find
chocolates that do good so this
chocolate from Whole Foods is organic
and it helps the Tanzania spits the
Tanzania schoolhouse project which is
great so a portion of the proceeds help
to fund the education of kids I think
that that’s taste good and do good taste
good and do good yes
this helps with endangered species so
how great is that
dark chocolate chia seeds come on but
buy one bag feed one child that’s good
yeah
the dirt is like chocolate that gives
back I love that buy one bag feed one
husband I love this wine company do you
have to taste this and I love this wine
I love this one
and I love wines and it’s from a company
called dry farm wines they find organic
wine from around the world and if you’ve
watched any of my other videos on
pesticides you would know that grapes
are one of the most highly pesticide
riddens fruits so there’s so many
chemicals in conventionally farmed wine
and you think you’re doing something
healthy or you’re relaxing but you’re
really like eating a lot of pesticides
okay so now we’re gonna go to my brand
this is my own nutritional line live
young lifestyle I came up with this
brand because I was really tired of not
knowing what I was putting in my body
and I was one of those that would walk
around with a ziploc full of pills not
so great when you’re going through an
airport or when you’re traveling and so
I found this company called zymogen who
I worked with to develop this line and
these are all the highest grade
nutrients they’re bioavailable this is
the woman’s age defying complex if you
open this up which is going to be kind
of hard I should have opened this ahead
of time but there’s 60 different pockets
in here and they’re all a days
they’re all one day’s worth so it’s
everything you need for one day to defy
aging
it’s a bioavailable a vitamin nutrients
an antioxidant fish oil it’s everything
you need in one daily pocket so when you
travel if they’re gone for seven days to
throw seven of these in your suitcase
it’s like a no-brainer and bioavailable
meaning we actually absorb yea the
nutrients verses right it’s an amazing
it’s because the FDA does not regulate
supplements it’s amazing the things that
are found in the pills that we are
putting in our body there’s a lot of
heavy metals there’s a lot of fillers
there’s toxins in things that we think
that we’re doing something good for a
body and once everything the men’s and
the women’s the women’s has more bone
support because we got you you need
something that is you’re just it’s just
going through you it’s a waste of
expensive piece I have three different
probiotics because the yeah the daily
probiotic this is if you you know just
on a daily basis there’s a probiotic max
which is if you’ve just come off of an
antibiotic and so you’ve destroyed not
only the good bacteria but the bad
bacteria in your system you want to do
the probiotic max to get you back on
track and then the probiotic lean is
something that it really targets
inflammation in your body and these are
live cultures you don’t need to
refrigerate it they come in this you
know airtight vacuum hand filled so
they’re also easy for travel and their
live cultures so in their vegetarian
their vegetarian one a day one a day so
I have about eleven products there’s a
hair skin and nails which I love my one
of my latest products is this crave
control which was looking near our
transmitters in your brain to help you
like step away from the caramels when
you need to yeah Jenny helps you like
put away the glass of wine when you’ve
had four
the biggest combo that I have that
they’re seeing a lot of great results
with is the fiber lean and the probiotic
lean so these two together when if you
it comes in a powder or a capsule form
when you mix these two together they’re
really seeing a lot of people being able
to shed a lot of weight and from now
until January first every time you order
any of these products I will give you a
choice of one of two water bottles
this is a glass water bottle also my
brand silicone sleeve because you know
the plastics are now polluting our
landfills they’re in our oceans these
you can leave in the car because it’s
glass there’s no leaching the entire
thing goes in the dishwasher it’s bigger
with the sleeve with the sleeve it’s big
enough that you can put it under the
icemaker
you can put lemon wedges and everything
in like that and it’s a very handy
carrying case so that’s the glass one
this is the one that my daughter loves
really okay yeah it has a little
strainer so you’re not gonna be it’s not
gonna be clogging the spout you can do
tea in here you can do fruit ice cubes
but it is an eco friendly it’s triple
insulated so the ice cubes stay ice any
product that you buy if you in the in
the memo section or the notes section
yep on the once you’re checking out just
stipulate whether you want the the metal
water bottle or you want the glass one
between now and January first yes okay
moving on so this is the Tristar one LED
light therapy now if you’ve watched any
of my youtube videos you’ll you’ll know
that I’m a big believer in red light
therapy there’s so much evidence that
this is so good for everything from
circulation to reducing fine lines and
wrinkles to your skin your skin tone and
texture it’s really really anti-aging
and this particular device has different
settings so if you turn on the blue
light if you have acne it’s really
killing all of that bacteria and really
helping to clear up your acne of course
you know I always use it on there’s
yellow so your are you laying underneath
this you put your face underneath this
yes and while you’re doing that why not
lay on
segue segue alert this is cosmetically I
love this pillow because if you’re going
to be spending a lot of money on
skincare why do you want that to end up
on your pillowcase so you want to be
able to sleep on your back this has a
removable neck role and also it’s got a
little pocket so if you want to put like
an ice like a little ice thing in there
you can cool you can also put like a
little heated thing inside there but
it’s like yes exactly and you can remove
this but I love this because you know it
also helps to line up your spine it’s
you’re supposed to be it’s supposed to
be much healthier if you’re sleeping on
your back got it but if you’ve had Botox
if you’re having laser if you’ve had
some cosmetic procedure or your
chiropractor says you need to sleep on
your back this kind of helps you to get
in that habit because you can’t turn you
can’t really turn from side to side it
kind of keeps you all snuggled in there
and so all of the anti-aging potions
stay exactly why because this is not
cotton you mean no because you’re not if
you’re okay John you’re back I got it
correct it helps with gravity it helps
gravity with your with your skin and
also keeping all your anti-aging potions
exactly where they’re supposed to be
okay so next is this magic timing cube
now why does it have to do with
anti-aging because for me like I get
super stressed out during the holidays
and there’s so much to do and I just
want to put a time limit on things and I
feel like I get so much more
accomplished so if I say I’m gonna write
a blog I want to spend 30 minutes on it
go and so you turn on this little button
there’s you there’s a timer from five
fifteen thirty sixty however much time
you want to spend on that task you put
that number up facing up it starts
blinking blinking red let’s say you get
a phone call you’re like writing you get
a phone call you’re like I have to take
this call you just turn it to the blank
side it pauses halfway aware of Ridge
pause whatever its cause
finish my blog and I know I’ve spent 15
minutes doing I was gonna say what I’m
making the crazy sexy Trail Mix yes my
timer by the way the slogan is don’t let
time control you you control time this
is from Grove Collective so if you went
on their website again we’re gonna have
all that information down there
this is environmentally friendly
cleaning supplies sometimes it’s really
hard to know what to buy and so if you
have a company that that’s what they do
they find these eco-friendly different
things that we can have that are good
for the environment it’s great as a gift
for a kid who lives in a dorm who has
never bought cleaning supplies because
you can start them off on the right foot
by buying things that are healthier for
them and healthier for the environment
so I love I love that again more a great
or a great moving in gift for someone
who just got a new house or a new
apartment yes yes this is the beat
inversion trainer hold on cause Cirque
du Soleil but this feet up trainer helps
you do inversions and inversions are
really great for anti-aging because any
time that you can reverse the way that
your blood is flowing you know your feet
are above your head even if you’re
laying on the ground your feet are up
that’s still considered to be anti-aging
because you reversing that flow well if
you can do a headstand or a handstand
that’s even better and this helps you to
be able to do that so I’ll give you a
little demo you’re the slogan for this
product is don’t let gravity control you
you control gravity the slogan might
also be like don’t do this after you’ve
had a few bucks oh there goes my shirt
so it helps you just kind of be able to
kick back upside down you know part part
of the whole thing in yoga of being
comfortable in a headstand or a
handstand is being comfortable with the
blood rushing to your head so it’s
really important to be able to have no
there’s
you know tension in my joints there’s no
my hands aren’t hurting my head’s not
hurting because it’s suspended and it
it’s a really good way to get used to
being upside down now you can also use
this as like an ab exercise so if you
you know piped and brought your feet
back up if you brought your feet to the
side and back up all of this is like you
can do like a backbend and it comes with
Dramamine
in case you get sick so although it is
the season for for giftgiving I mean
these are really amazing gifts it’s also
the season for giving back and so we
always include a charity of your choice
to give to during the holidays and that
becomes like our baker’s dozen or
thirteen so mine this year I I normally
do that have international which I’ve
done forever and I gave again but I’m
really into the ewg org which is an
environmental working group and that’s
the liaison between you know the science
of what’s healthy and what’s harmful to
us and the government policy that is
very very slow so in addition the ewg
motivates and activates people to be
involved to actually change legislation
so I think this is a really important
organization the funny thing about
legislation is that although legislation
can change there are effects so as they
are beginning to regulate more i’ve
poachers and ivory and africa it’s
having an effect which is the more the
less ivory on the market the more
valuable it is
which means poachers are even more
desperate so they need to find ways
they’re desperate to sort of go kill
young elephants young rhinoceros as and
now giraffes are endangered so there’s
this foundation called the Sheldrick
Wildlife Trust org the Sheldrick charges
family super involved in helping
orphaned baby rhinos elephants and
giraffes and these are orphans because
their parents were killed by poachers so
this year they’re saying for $50 that’s
a great price you can give the gift of
adopting a baby rhino or a baby elephant
or a baby giraffe and
and in that 54 that 50 bucks you
actually have the animal they send you
an adoption certificate for the animal
pictures of them and photographs with
monthly updates about your orphan rhino
or giraffe or elephant a watercolor of
it that Angela’s Sheldrake the woman who
runs it does for you and then access to
like content like a video of it and so
it’s um the Sheldrick wildlife go $50
and you get to adopt this baby and you
can gift it you can get please get me I
