Not just a quick clean—but that deeper reset where everything feels lighter, calmer, and pulled back together.

All Spruced Up Cleaning Co. takes care of the details most people don’t have time for—the buildup, the forgotten corners, the little things that make a space feel off.

If you’ve been craving a reset, this is your sign to do it.

Retinol: The Gold Standard

• Vitamin A derivative, clinically proven anti-aging

• Speeds cell turnover, boosts collagen, fades dark spots, controls oil

• Works great — but comes with baggage

The Retinol Problem

• Causes purging (peeling, redness, irritation)

• Increases sun sensitivity

• Dries out skin & disrupts the barrier

• Not safe during pregnancy

• Women 40s/50s often become too sensitive for it

Bakuchiol: The Upgrade

• Plant-derived (no Vitamin A), used in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries

• 2018 clinical study: same results as retinol, significantly less irritation

• Boosts collagen, activates retinol-like receptors, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory

• No purge. No UV sensitivity. Safe morning AND night.

Who Should Use Bakuchiol?

• Sensitive or reactive skin (hello rosacea girlies like me)

• Pregnant/breastfeeding

• Skin in your 40s, 50s, 60s

• Anyone who tried retinol and had a bad experience

• Anyone tired of "gets worse before better"

Bottom Line: Retinol isn't bad. Bakuchiol isn't just a trend. But if your skin has been fighting you — bakuchiol is the smarter choice.

Wondering if this might be the solution? Schedule a FREE Skin consultation with Skin Solution MedSpa to determine if bakuchiol can rewind the clock for you!

New beginnings aren’t about preparing for the worst.
They’re about giving yourself the freedom to move forward without hesitation.

When your coverage is set up the right way, you’re not constantly thinking about “what if.” You just… live your life.

Moore Family Insurance helps make sure everything is in place so you can focus on what’s next—not what could go wrong.

If you’ve been putting it off, this is a simple place to start.

If a move has been on your mind, timing matters more than ever. Inventory is picking up—but so is competition. The edge comes from having a smart, strategic plan in place.

Hailey Ditullio is guiding clients through this shift with clarity and confidence—not guesswork.

If buying or selling is even on your radar this year, now’s the time to start the conversation.

New beginnings don’t just happen in your schedule… they start at home.

If you’ve been putting off that small plumbing issue or HVAC concern, this is your sign to take care of it before it turns into something bigger. A slow drain, an older water heater, or a system that just doesn’t feel right can quietly cost you more over time.

1-800-Plumber + Air Youngstown makes it easy to reset things the right way, with fast service and solutions that actually last.

If you want peace of mind going into the next season, now’s the time to handle it.
