A Beautiful Complexion- How Do You Do It?

admin — Wed, 31 Mar 2010 13:46:11 +0000

When looking at someone with beautiful skin, that person radiates good health, vitality and well being. Usually, that kind of radiance requires alot more than just putting on any old facial product.

Having a healthy lifestyle along with great skin-care habits produce glowing, youthful-looking skin. What you put in your body is equally as important as what you put on it.

Here are some great tips for naturally gorgeous skin.

* Maintain a well balanced diet. Consuming too much refined foods, such as sugar, can rob the body of essential vitamins and minerals. This, as a result, encourages wrinkles and premature aging. Try to eat foods that are rich in vitamins and essential fatty acids, such as fruits, vegetables and fish. Also, drink at least eight glasses of water a day.

* Exercise. Working out brings more oxygen to your skin cells, leaving you with nourished skin that is more firm. Exercise also helps reduce stress. Studies show that too much stress can potentially aggravate skin conditions, such as acne and hives.

* Find natural skin care products. The most revolutionary skin-care products today merge nature with science. As an example, the new Nature’s Gate Organics Advanced Skin Care line takes the best that Mother Nature has to offer and combines those ingredients with formulations that are scientifically proven to benefit the skin.

Nature’s Gate Organics’ Oh What a Night, a cream that hydrates skin overnight using walnut seed extract and European beech tree buds, shields against early visible signs of aging. Have a Vine Day, a day cream that contains chardonnay grape seed extract, helps tired-looking skin look visibly lifted and smoother. And Forget Your Lines, a wrinkle diffuser serum that works like natural Botox, helps to de-stress skin.

* Protect your skin from the sun’s harsh rays. Exposure to the sun can cause premature aging and skin discoloration, increasing your risk of skin cancer. Apply sunscreen daily and wear a brimmed hat whenever possible.

What Are Spider Veins?

Spider veins are very small thread like veins. They are generally red or blue in color. These veins are found more on legs and sometimes on the face. These veins are a big cosmetic problem as they disfigure the look of the skin. Let’ find out how they form and the best way to get rid of them.

Spider Veins- How Do They Form?

Spider veins are thought to form a persons genetics. Usually women get them more than men and they develop later on in a persons life. For that reason young people don’t suffer from this problem much. Spider veins form a web like bundle that spread from the center outwards, hence the reason their called spider veins. Spider Veins are different than varicose veins. In varicose veins, the veins get pressurized by blood and protrude from the skins surface. Ulceration of varicose veins causes a medical problem.

Spider Veins- How Can They Be treated?

The only method of treatment of spider veins is removal by destruction. They can be destroyed in many ways. Your doctor may use a fine needle to cut through the veins with electricity. The veins are thus destroyed as they are burnt. Lasers are now frequently used to remove spider veins. Your doctor will tell about the method that is most suitable for you.

How do I remove those scars I got from aces n pimples?

Question by Celia K: How do I remove those scars I got from aces n pimples?
Hey there!
I’m a 16 year old girl, and I’ve got problem with bad skin. 3 years ago I started to get pimples, and it got worser and worser. I was like “whaat?? Noo, pimples!” while looking in the mirror and of course started to sqeez’em. I knew that I shouldn’t, my mom already told me, but I just couldn’t resist -_-
I did use facial cleaning products..It helped a little. So, before I started high school, I changed facial product “Cliniderm” skin balance and I use facial mask I bought from the body shop “tea tree oil”. And voila! the pimples are gone! Ehm..well, not really. Before I get period, I will get some few pimples -.- *sigh* It’s like a “warn” like those pimples are trying to tell me that I will get period soon! umm, let’s move on xD
What I’m trying say is, my skin is getting better. But how do I remove those scars I have on my face? I know it’s hard, but isn’t there anything that’ll help ..a little? It’s not that much, just some few actually, you almost can’t see it. but sti

Answer by annie
The best home remedy for scars is actually lemon juice, since it is a natural bleach and will lighten scars. Since you are using lemon juice in any case, there is really nothing else you can do. Please don’t stress about the scars. Once you have your pimples under control, the scars will gradually fade. Also, you could consider laser treatment as a final option – but only after your pimples are under control, or else they will keep reappearing and you will keep getting fresh scars. As soon as a pimple bursts, gently squeeze it completely till all the pus and blood comes out – with clean hands – and then apply cotton soaked in lemon juice to the spot. Leave it on for 10 – 15 mins. You will not get a scar.

You Want To Look Younger? Tips On How To Keep Your Skin Looking Shiny & Healthy.

You Want To Look Younger? Tips On How To Keep Your Skin Looking Shiny & Healthy.

There are a lot of consumers who want better skin. However, it can be almost overwhelming when you start thinking about the large variety of skin care products & treatments that are on the market today. A lot of people suffer from premature aging & want to get rid of those annoying wrinkles & lines that always seem to be cropping up at all the wrong times…

So, what would you say if I told you that your skin doesn’t have to look so old, so fast & that those extra lines that always seem to be cropping up don’t have to be so hard to get rid of?

I hope you don’t think I’m crazy…but it’s possible. And, it’s not as tough as all the media would make you believe…

The key to getting better quality skin is to use a combination of natural processes & synthetic aids. Combining the different methods is the right thing to do because you really do get the best of both worlds…

1) Natural Healing…When you get your skin ‘back to nature’ as much as possible, you help reinvigorate the natural state that it should be in anyway. Think about it…Humans wandered the planet for thousands of years & they were outside a lot of the time. It’s only during the last 200 years that we’ve spent most of our days inside factories & office buildings. For those of us working 80 hours a week, harsh interior light can have a seriously detrimental effect on the natural color of our skin…

So, what should you do to take reinvigorate your skin naturally?

Well there are 3 things that come to mind immediately.

a) Drink enough clean water. US Citizens are some of the most dehydrated people in the world. We are always rushing everywhere…the next meeting, the next appointment, the next job…. I’m not sure why that would make us dehydrated, but the majority of us are not drinking our recommended 8-10 glasses of water a day it seems. Hydrated skin is beautiful skin…

b) Eat fish. Since a lot of us now live far from the water, quality fish can be tough to come by. But, if you can get fresh fish that isn’t polluted, the oils in the fish can help you increase the natural glow of your skin.

c) Practice yoga. For those of us who’ve done even the first basic yoga workouts, we know the secret- yoga is awesome. Yoga is incredible for a variety of reasons. And one of them is the relaxation that it brings over the body…calm body=happy body. And you better believe that that calm will at least somewhat transfer to your skin…

2)While these natural tips are effective, they are not complete…Today, we live in the age of technology- the information revolution has spewed forth a bevy of new inventions that has increased our lifespan dramatically. When you invest in the latest skin care products, you receive the benefit of thousands of hours of research. Missing out on all the new skin care options that are available would be a big mistake…

3) But, the real trick is to combine these methods in order to get better skin. Do a little of both. Implement the natural tips…but, make sure that try some of the incredible skin care products that are out there too.

Now that you have these tips, you are ready to start getting healthier skin immediately…

Q&A: Concerning the “contour abs product”, is there anyone out there who knows the current, voltage and pulsewidth?

Question by rdmlawsky147: Concerning the “contour abs product”, is there anyone out there who knows the current, voltage and pulsewidth?
This is with regards to the electrical stimulas pulses which arrive to the abs sites via electrodes and electrode jell. I understand that there is a patent on the particular pulse width and its modulation characteristics, and I even found a number of related patents (swiss-wave), etc. , however, and this is just my opinion from the cheep seat that I sit, ‘it seems to me that the stimulation of any muscle and/or grouping of muscles would be best accomplished via the nerve networks comming from the inside pathways, and not necessarily from the surface of the skin.

yes, but if you start putting needles into peoples arms, they like it a lot less than strap on electodes.

And what do you save, a few watts in power, too low to matter.

A Guide to Choosing Age Spot Lotions – What You Should Know

A Guide to Choosing Age Spot Lotions – What You Should Know

It’s unbelievable how many anti-aging skin care treatments like age spot lotions are available in the market these days—all of them claiming to keep your skin from aging. However, not all of these claims are true and as a consumer, you have to be wary of products that are not effective.

In choosing age spot lotions, you need to know what ingredients to look for and what to avoid. This article will tell you about the latter.

Most age spot lotions use mineral oil or what they sometimes refer to as paraffin or petrolatum because of its low cost. However, you have to steer clear of any anti-aging lotions with this ingredient because it only clogs your pores, which only causes skin problems like acne.

You should also choose age spot lotions which do not have any fragrances. No matter how nice the smell is, you have to keep in mind that fragrances should only be used in colognes or perfumes, not in skin products because they can cause skin problems and even cancer.

So the next time that you want to smell good, do not buy fragrant age spot lotions that smell like flowers, fruits, or other sweet scents because these products are used to have younger looking skin. Get yourself a perfume or cologne instead, which are created to make people smell nice and fragrant.

Another popular ingredient that most skin care products have and you should avoid is dioxane because it can also cause cancer. If you buy a skin product with this ingredient which is actually an artificial coconut derivative, it is like intentionally doing your body harm.

You probably already know this but do not buy skin products with alcohol as one of the main ingredients, specifically isopropyl alcohol, ethyl, methanol, ethanol, and benzyl alcohol because these are harmful substances to your skin. There are other kinds of alcohol that do not cause any problems when applied on the skin but the previously stated alcohol types cause dryness and irritation.

Alcohols also make your more prone to bacterial, viral, and fungal skin diseases because they remove the outermost layer of your skin, which makes your skin more exposed to such disease-causing micro organisms. So if you are planning to buy an anti aging skin product, leave the alcohol-based products on their shelves for your own good.

Many companies that manufacture age spot lotions also want to save as much money as they can, that is why they try to make their products have the longest possible shelf life by adding parabens such as ethyl, propyl, methyl, and butyl parabens. However, there are many researches that focused on the harmful effects of parabens such as cancer, endocrine problems, skin problems, and allergies to a person’s body.

Do yourself a favour and stop buying age spot lotions that have these ingredients unless you want to look much older than your age. Choose the best products available in the market that only have safe ingredients to have fresh and vibrant looking skin.

I am looking for a great brand of hair spray to keep my hairstyle in place! I have thick, heavy coarse hair so it has to be something with good hold, but won’t turn my hair hard and crunchy. Something that smell good and doesn’t have that “hair product” smell would be prefered. Any suggestions?
