What You Don’t Know About The Best Selling Body Moisturizers May Shock You

The best selling body moisturizers are in fact the worst moisturizers! You would be shocked to know the reality. Find out the scientific and hard-core facts in this article that would make you aware of the harsh reality behind the so called “best skin moisturizers” in the market.

If you have a look at the best selling body moisturizers in local drugstores and department stores, you will find that a majority of them are best sellers due to their rock-bottom price tag.

You will also find that they contain ingredients which actually harmful chemical substances which should be no-where close to the skin. This is the reason why they are available at a cheap price! Rather than doing any good for the skin, the application of these best selling body moisturizers actually causes a lot of long term skin damage and health problems.

Here are some of the harmful synthetic chemicals that are used in majority of the best selling body moisturizers; you should avoid these at any cost –

1) Parabens — they are used as preservatives in skincare products. Manufacturers love them because they are cheap and boost their profits. Clinical studies show that they cause allergic reactions, rashes, disruptions in the body’s endocrine system and cancer.

2) Mineral oils — these are the most commonly found ingredients in the best selling body moisturizers. They are cheap and are highly addictive for the skin. They coat the skin and temporality lock the moisture within. But in this way, they clog the skin pores and make them incapable of breathing freely.

The accumulated toxins lying within cause acne eruptions, rashes, allergies and irritation. Mineral Oils also adversely affect the production of essential oils of the skin. 

So, when the effects of the moisturizer diminish, our skin doesn’t produce adequate moisture and this creates excessive dryness. In the long-term, our skin becomes dull, lifeless and wrinkled due to premature skin aging.

3) Fragrances — they refer to 4000 different types of synthetic chemicals that are used to create a nice smell in the best selling body moisturizers. But they cause very harmful consequences for our health. They interfere in the functioning of the central nervous system and create problems such as the depression, hyperactivity, anxiety and hormonal disruptions.

Therefore, don’t get carried off by the aggressive marketing and advertising campaigns of the top skin care companies. As you know, whatever is applied on our skin; is literally ingested by our skin and finds its way into our body. You definitely do not want such toxic chemicals to be circulating in your bloodstream!

Look carefully at what ingredients are present in the best selling body moisturizers, make sure to avoid all such harmful chemical substances and look for all-natural ingredients that are scientifically proven in skin rejuvenation.

The best skin moisturizers contain cutting edge natural ingredients such as Cynergy TK, Phytessence Wakame and Nano-Lipobelle H EQ10. 

Cynergy TK is an amazing cutting edge natural ingredient with extraordinary capabilities in enhancing the natural production of youth giving skin proteins collagen and elastin. It gives a smooth, supple and young skin, just like the way we had in our 20s.

Phytessence Wakame is an extract of a special type of Japanese sea kelp. It is rich in essential nutrients such as minerals, vitamins, calcium (its calcium content is 15 times greater than milk) and antioxidants. 

It nourishes the skin deeply and gives a complete freedom from all aging signs such as wrinkles and fine lines. It also improves the moisture retention and elasticity in the skin. It gives the skin a smooth and creamy complexion.

Visit my website to find out more of such amazing natural ingredients that you should look out for in the best selling body moisturizers, so that you can achieve a young, beautiful and naturally glowing skin.

light therapy anti-aging
Whats the diffrence betwwen 650nm LED light & 650nm LASER light an infrared lights used for skin rejuvenation?

there is all sorts of anting aging light therapy out there on the market but what is the difference betwwen 650nm LED light and 650nm LASER light? and also infrared light? and which ones have the best anti aging effects?

The difference between an led that emits 650nm light and a laser (diode most likely) that emits 650nm light is going to be how much light is emitted and how tightly packed together it is.

The laser will emit a beam that will stay roughly the same size (particularly when collimated with a special lens) for a large distance while the LED will spread out immediately.

As for which wavelength has the best anti-aging effect? None of them. I can’t find any scientific evidence that they at all help stop aging.

Do you think a website about skin problems and anti-aging technology by an RN is a good idea?

I am a Cosmetic Laser Specialist and an Aesthetics and Dermatology RN with several years in the profession. I would like to have a web site that would answer questions and give consultations to those who want to have some direction as to how to proceed with any procedures they may want to have done. Also I could give my opinion on the best products on the market today for optimum skin health.

Sounds like a good idea. Websites by experts offering good independent advice are always a good idea. Is this intended as a business or a hobby?

facial cleansers for pregnant women
Is cold cream safe to use while pregnant?

I usually use a cold cream such as Pond’s to remove makeup and to generally cleanse my face. I have read that a pregnant woman should only use soap and water – but that is much too harsh for my skin, and so are most other facial cleansers. Can I still use my beloved cold cream? If not, does anyone have a recommendation?

Cold creme is fine, but don’t use the medicated cream.

I use Ponds as well now. Soaps are not the same as what they were 20 years ago except for Ivory. Which, by the way, is what you use if you start having problems with your skin (rashes) while pregnant. The deoderants in stuff like Irish Spring can give your skin problems during pregnancy. They go away with Ivory soap.

anti-aging red light therapy

By Vitl Waters

Mar

29

Abby Borbon-Roaquin, a manager and clinician at Ulan Medical Spa in San Diego, California, has been a registered nurse for over 14 years, and is experienced in providing many types of medical aesthetic procedures such as anti-aging light therapy.

What does anti-aging light therapy do?

Anti-Aging Light Emitting Diodes (LED) therapy is a skin rejuvenation device. It works with visible red LEDs and invisible infrared LEDs with the body’s natural processes to counteract the effects of aging. This treatment can be used for men and women of all ages and skin types. So it means that selecting appropriate candidates is important.

Why we need it?

Our cells cannot manufacture the skin’s supportive structures faster than before, as we grow older. And we have to suffer environment damage from the sun’s rays. It will speed this process and damage our skin and cells that produce elastin and collagen. Light therapy can stimulate these cells to help counteract the effects of aging on the skin by being delivered at specific times.

What’ the theory of anti-aging light therapy?

The red light of anti-aging light therapy promotes the production of collagen that gives our skin its firmness and elasticity. The production of collagen is normally stimulated by inflicting a “controlled injury” on the skin. For instance, laser resurfacing, chemical peels and some non-invasive tightening produces work by inducing a controlled injury. This injury will promote collagen production by stimulating a healing process. But the red light doesn’t injure your skin and support your body’s collagen production. We at Ulan Medical Spa are really excited about this new technology.

What should I do during treatment and how many treatments should I take?

Before the treatment starts, you should cleanse your face to remove any makeup or sunblock. In order to let the light absorb better, we will put an exfoliating solution on your face before the treatment. Then we will give you with safety eyewear and position the light about 1 or 2 inches away from your face. Each light therapy will last about 20 minutes. You will feel relaxed all the time. And you can return to your normal routine without any pain, redness or irritation. Usually, patients need 8 to 12 treatments and they will take over 4 to 6 weeks. So the treatments have to be at least one day apart. You can have a consultation with your skincare professional to adjust the number of treatments if appropriate.

What results can I expect from the treatment and how long will the effects last?

You will see a brighter, clearer and smoother complexion at first. After several treatments, you will notice an improvement in skin tone clarity, and texture, with your pore sizes reduced. Most patients can see a marked difference in 2 or 3 weeks after finishing the last treatments. Over 80% of subjects in studies report a softening of fine lines and wrinkles, and 75% report improvement in skin smoothness and softness.

After finishing your treatments, you will still continue to see improvement for 8 to 12 weeks. Because we continue to age every day, you may choose to go on a maintenance item to continue the treatments. Maintenance treatments are customized based on an individual’s needs.

What other treatments can be combined with anti-aging light therapy at Ulan Medical Spa?

At Ulan Medical Spa, we provide some other treatments that can be combined with anti-aging light therapy. It is appropriate to combine anti-aging light therapy with anti-acne light therapy for some patients. For this, we alternate blue light, which destroys acne bacteria, with the red light, which can reduce inflammation.

We often precede the anti-aging light therapy treatment with the HydraFacial. It’s a skin resurfacing treatment that deep cleanses, extracts, exfoliates, and hydrates while bathing your skin with skin-specific serums for acne-prone, anti-aging, dry or oily skin. And the combining of anti-aging light therapy treatment and chemical peels is also often used at Ulan Medical Spa.

Anti-aging light therapy works well when combined with the ReFirme treatment, which tightens and tones your skin. ReFirme combined with light therapy yields better results in terms of firming, toning and rejuvenating.

Please feel free to have a consultation with us if you have any question.

HELPPP….MAYBE U KNOW?!?!?

ok, i been getting pimples a lot lately…seems like everytime i get rid of 1 or 2 another comes along…they also have been leaving marks…my skin was better when i was younger than now! i am 21…when i was 18-19 it wasnt this bad…so basically i have a cystic pimple now..trying not to play with it bcz it hurts….and i keep getting white heads everywhere…i cleanse with olay daily facials if i have makeup on…if not i use clearasil daily face wash…..and moisturize with neutrogena light night cream – oil free. i also do the st.ives apricot scrub 2-3 times a week! i dont know what im doing wrong please help!!

i have the same prob. i have clear skin but lately ive been getting like 1 or 2 huge pimples a month! i cleanse twice a day and everything! but maybe you’re using to much cleansers. maybe you’re allergic to somethin. try one cleanser twice a day for a month. if its not good move on to another. buy a good spot treatment to put on pimples but ive tried loads of those. the best thing i found was rubbing the pimple with rubbing alchohol then putting triple antibiotic or neosporin on it. it got smaller litterly within hours. it helps more than acne spot treatments. the trick is to treat is as you feel it coming when its weak. but if u get lazy and dont it still works. good luck!!

I have rosacea, looking for mild but great face cleanser and moisturizer. HELP!?

I have been diagnosed with rosacea :( I need a gentle face cleanser and moisturizer that you can buy over the counter that has no fragrance in it. I’ve tried Dove, is okay and I’ve tried Spectrol Jel but it dried out my skin. Any suggestions? I need my skin to clear up some and feel healthier.

Try Arbonne. It’s botanically based, has no dyes or chemical fragrances, and is gentle on your skin. They have an anti-aging line (NutriMinC RE9) if you’re older, and an “Intelligence” line if you’re younger. Check it out at:

What moisturizer is best to use in combo with Epiduo Acne Cream? please be specific :) ?

also if you have any ideas on what to wash my face with (if even necessary at all)
I am using an spf 15 oil free moisturizer that was left over from my proactiv failure. please feel free to speculate and help :)

There is this new popular cream that people have been talking about.

It was even televised on TV.

It prevents future and existing acne, diminishes scars, and lightens skin and blemishes. Fast results too! (It has been claimed that major results can be seen within a week and no later than two weeks)

Before and After photos are available at the given ebay site.

This person is providing 1-3 week trial samples (Only for ONE DOLLAR.. definitely a deal) on ebay at:

Search up “best acne solution ever” on ebay.

First 100 customers can get the item for $1 for one week trial and up to 3 weeks. Or you can buy the whole container for $160

It’s expensive, but the product DOES work.

My sister and cousin who both have major acne have tried the product and they both give it thumbs up. I have also heard many great feedbacks about this cream.

I don’t have a problem with acne, but it seems to have great results on my sister who has moderate to severe acne. Her acne swelling went away overnight.

I hope this helps. =)

best face moisturizer combination skin
What facial moisturizers that contain an SPF 15 or above are best suited for combination and acne prone skin?

I would like input from people who have used, liked, and would recommend a particular brand of facial moisturizer that doesn’t clog your pores or cause even more breakouts.

So far I have only tried two moisturizers, and that is the Olay Complete daily moisturizer with spf 15 for Combination/oily skin, and a vitamin E facial moisturizer from the body shop. Both however, seemed to do nothing but make my face more oily. When I apply them, it feels as if they’re clogging my pores.

So for some time, I’ve stopped using any sort of moisturizer at all, since my skin is naturally oily, but sometimes it gets really dry because of acne spot treatments I use. So now I need to find something that works great, without spending money to experiment on various brands of moisturizers I will probably end up discarding after a few uses.
*I have tried salicylic acid for my acne before, however my skin seems to have a reaction to it. But BP works pretty well.

Clean and clear has an oil free moisturizer with spf 15. There is one with salicylic and one with out.

Good luck!

Any ideas for a homemade moisturizer?

good moisturizer are soooo expensive and I’m constantly topping up my supply.

Any ideas?

Just a simple cream like thing that I can spread on my face and leave it to be absorbed.

Preferably with easy to obtain house hold ingredients.

Thanks!

Take 2 teaspoons of milk and 2 tablespoons of honey. Mix both ingredients until form a paste. Apply it to face and neck, leave on for 15-20 minutes. Wash with lukewarm water

Take 1 teaspoon of lemon juice, 2 teaspoons of honey and 3 tablespoon of yogurt. Mix all of them and stir in one white egg. Smooth it on face and neck,leave for about 20 minutes. Then wash off with water.

a really simple one is equal amounts of plain yogurt and avocado. mash avocado to a paste and blend in a blender or food processor untill smooth. leave on for about 20 minutes and rinse.

One slice of watermelon, ( get seeds out if possible, if not, it’s okay) one tablespoon lemon juice, and 1 cup plain yogurt. Squeeze the lemon on the watermelon and refrigerate for around 15 minutes. Remove the rind from the watermelon. Then blend in blender or food processor with the yogurt.Afterwards, apply it thoroughly; you will notice that it will lower the body temperate while moisturizing the skin at the same time.

1 whole egg, 1/2 an avocado, 1/4 a banana, 1/2 cup plain yogurt. Mash avocado and banana together, blend (with blender or food processor) with the egg ( whisked) and yogurt. Apply to your face for 20 minutes and rinse.

Mix 1 1/2 teaspoons honey, the juice from 1/2 of a lemon, and 3-tablespoon yoghurt. Stir in 1 whipped egg white. Apply to face and let set about 15 minutes. Then wash off with lukewarm water.

Peel an overly ripe peach and remove the pit.
Mash the peach pulp until it is smooth, using a fork.
Mix 1/4 cup heavy cream into the peach pulp until the mixture is smooth. Strain the mixture through a sieve using the back of a tablespoon. Apply this soothing moisturizer in an upwards circular sweeping motion over your entire face. It is best to apply the moisturizer right after you’ve washed your face with warm water and it’s still damp and warm.

Take one teaspoon honey, 1 teaspoon of lemon juice, and a medium size avocado. Mix honey and the pulp of avocado and make a thick paste of it, then add lemon juice to make stiff cream. Keep in fridge for half an hour. Massage the mixture well on face and neck, leave it on for 20 min. and rinse.

Mash 1/2 banana and add 1-tablespoon honey and 2 tablespoons sour cream. Apply to face and let set for about 10 minutes. Then wash off with lukewarm water.

Hope I helped!!!!

Aveeno(Active Naturals) for Lube? good Idea?

Im a Guy and ,im curious, because when i masturbate its usually rough and i was wanted to try new things, and i seen the bottle of Moisturizer i use on my face, arms, chest, legs and hands… and i was wondering would Aveeno do anything to my penis if i apply it on?

My Gf says my penis is to dry so would this make it smooth without making it disfigured or in pain?

Ingredients are :
Water,Glycerin, distearyldimonium Chloride, Petrolatum, Isopropyl, Cetyl Alcohol, Dimethicone, Colloidal Oatmeal, Benzyl Alcohol, Sodium Chloride

it’ll work. the glycerin and water combo are nice. petrolatum can erode condoms, isopropyl alcohol can sting a bit, same with cetyl and benzyl, as for the colloidal oatmeal, that’s just oat flour. it makes it creamy, ..i like my oatmeal in a bowl for breakfast, but whatever works man…

I wonder if they added the sodium chloride at the end of the process, “a pinch of salt for flavor”?

Astroglide still rules, but it’s expensive. try the house brand at walgreens or some such..seems as good, much cheaper.

Urea â?? What Skin Care Benefits Does It Have?

Not many people know about this, but urea is a common ingredient in skin care products that you may use daily. It has potent skin care benefits that refine the skin texture and make skin appear healthy and younger looking.

Urea is actually the primary organic solid of urine. But don’t be turned off. It boosts the process of protein synthesis in the body and supplies essential nitrogen contents. It is a natural moisturizer that is found within the skin. This is why dry skin has very low levels of urea.

Urea contents in the body prove to be very advantageous for the skin as they promote the antibacterial and antiviral properties. In addition, urea also boosts the antimicrobial properties and because of this urea based skin care products require fewer preservatives.

Skin Care Benefits of Urea

Minimized Water Loss
Urea reduces the amount of water that is lost through the skin’s epidermis and retains skin moisture for a longer period of time.

Effective Moisturization
Urea has very high water-binding power because of which it helps to keep the skin well-moisturized. It also acts as an effective humectant and attracts moisture to the skin, especially the dry areas. In fact, it is a natural moisturizing factor (NMF) present in the outer layers of the skin. Because of this, it is extremely beneficial for skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis.

Strong Barrier Function
Urea helps to accelerate the process of skin cell and skin regeneration process. This strengthens the barrier function of the skin and keeps it healthy. A strong skin barrier ensures stronger resistance against potential irritants.

Improved Penetration
Because urea acts on the skin’s barrier, it helps other ingredients of skin care products to penetrate better within the skin surface

Urea based skin care products are ideal for people with dry skin. This is because it has excellent moisturizing abilities that seek to nourish the most parched skin surfaces. With regular use, the skin become soft and supple and dry patches are diminished. In addition the skin texture improves and it becomes more resilient. Urea is extensively used in a variety of cosmetics and skin care products like moisturizers, shampoos, creams and lotions

Product Suggestions:

Kinerase Cream
This is an excellent anti-aging cream that improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and increases the skin’s capacity to retain moisture. In addition to Urea, it also contains Kinetin, a plant based agent that helps the skin retain moisture.

Kinerase Pro+Therapy Ultra Rich Eye Repair Cream
This cream utilizes 2 plant extracts to moisturize and reduce fine line and wrinkles, improves texture and tone and blotchy skin caused by sun damage. This urea based product is a physician strength formula and is great for post procedure treatments as well.

La Roche-Posay Biomedic Purifying Cleanser
This is a mild glycolic cleanser that contains urea as well. It unclogs skin pores to remove make up and other environmental pollutants deep within the skin. The cleanser also helps to improve the skin tone and texture.

Vivite Vibrance Therapy
This skin lightening product contains restorative antioxidants that brightens and evens out the skin tone without the use of hydroquinone while at the same time reducing fine lines and wrinkles. It contains urea to moisturize the skin and is great for hyperpigmentation.

Avoiding Urea

Urea is generally safe and can be used by all the dry skin types. However, it might not be appropriate in some cases:

Oily and Acne Prone skin
Urea based skin care products are rich moisturizing formulations and can make oily skin greasier. This can exacerbate oiliness and promote acne and blemishes on the skin.

Extremely Sensitive skin
People with sensitive skin may experience a stinging sensation while using urea based skin care product and thus are advised against it.

Infected skin
Urea based skin care products should not be used on any type of skin irritations, bleeding or reddened skin.

Young Children
Children below 3 years should not be given urea based skin care products.

What kind of advertising would compel you to host a home-based party for Arbonne International?

Arbonne is a network marketing company that sells Swiss skincare products that are all botaniacally-based and all-natural. Our product lines include-
Anti-Aging, Sun Protection, Nutrition, Weight Loss, Baby Care, Men’s Care, Hormone Balance, Cosmetics, Hair Care, and Aromatherapy.

An Arbonne Party would last about one hour. The host would invite 5-10 people over who would then receive a foot spa bath and sample our products while learning how to take care of their skin.

for me personally, nothing would. the fact that it’s so expensive and everyone invited to the party knows the hostess (usually their friend) is hoping they buy something is not a position i like to be put in. i think though that advertising to them the discounts they will be entitled to and such would be a good idea though.

3 Interesting Things To Look Out For In An Organic Night anti-aging cream Review

You will find a flood of night cream brands advertised in slick magazines and television. It is much better to go through a reliable organic night anti-aging cream review rather than wasting your time and money experimenting with numerous brands. This article shall provide you key insights on organic night cream reviewed and how you can find the best skin care.

Here are some important things to consider when you look at organic night anti-aging cream reviews –

1) It would be interesting for you to know that night is an excellent time for effective skin care. Our whole body, including the skin goes through the process of repairing and rejuvenation while you are asleep.

Damaged skin cells are replaced with new ones. You can significantly help in this rejuvenation process by using an effective organic night anti-aging cream.

2) In the general night creams available in the market, you will find the use of a lot of harmful chemicals such as alcohols, parabens, fragrances, dioxanes and mineral oils. These are cheap substitutes for natural ingredients, and they cause a lot of disastrous health consequences. Avoid them at any cost.

3) Organic ingredients are more compatible with the skin. They are easily absorbed and assimilated. So they work from deep within and perform long lasting skin rejuvenation. And make sure that they are present in active concentrations of more than 50% in the night creams. Anything less than that, and you have a useless and ineffective night cream in hand.

Look out for cutting edge amazing natural ingredients such as Cynergy TK, Phytessence Wakame and Nano-Lipobelle H EQ10. They have been considered the best in organic night anti-aging cream reviews when it comes to anti-aging and skin rejuvenation.

Why Moisturizing is More Important than You Think!

 

Moisturizing is an often over looked aspect of mens skin care. Many men believe that using a moisturizer is something that only women do. Well guys, there is a reason that women tend to age more gracefully than us, they use moisturizers and other high end skin care products that help preserve their youthful appearance.

Men for the most part spend more time out in the sun than women do. Therefore our face is exposed to more sunlight than our female counterparts. The sun dries out the skin on your face and accelerates the visible symptoms on premature aging. Premature aging is not what we want for our face. Who wants to look older than they are? Certainly not me!!!

So what can a guy do to protect his face from the sun’s harmful rays and signs of premature aging? Use a moisturizer every morning after your morning shave.  Using a moisturizer after your morning shave replaces the moisture lost during the shaving process as well as  providing the skin with vital nutrients and minerals essential to healthy skin. These nutrients and minerals are necessary for your skin to remain healthy and protect itself from the sun and it’s damaging rays. If you have been to the beach and seen some of the sun bunnies, you have seen the damage the sun can do to your skin.

Many Moisturizers these days have SPF protection added to them to provide even more sun protection for your face.  This is a great thing for you and your skin. Not only is the moisturizer adding critical moisture and nutrients back into your skin, but it also protect’s your skin from sun exposure all day long. It’s a one two punch against premature again of your skin.

So do your skin a favor and give it a fighting chance against the elements. With so many great products out there, there is no reason not to take advantage of their protecting benefits. Taking advantage of these great new products will help you in your fight against premature aging and your quest for healthy skin.

All Natural skin care products-Your Ultimate Guide

Pimples are our worst enemies, and when left untreated, can cause us to lose self-esteem and are painful on the skin. There are a lot of over-the-counter and prescription drugs to help combat these nasty whiteheads and blackheads. Before resorting to them, it would still be best to try out all natural skin care products and remedies.

The first natural and proven way to fight acne is to drink plenty of water. The daily amount of eight to ten glasses a day, keeps our skin hydrated and less oily. Water also helps remove waste materials from our body and keeps the skin healthy. To reduce swelling and redness of a pimple, use an ice pack over the skin and hold for a couple of minutes. This will help make the pimple smaller and reduce the pain.

Eat a lot of foods and veggies. These foods have the best nutrients to make us look and feel healthier. They also boost our immune systems, so not only can we have smooth skin, but also stay away from diseases.  Doctors also say that iodine causes acne, so stay away from iodized salt and salty foods as well.

Tea bags can also be diluted on cold water, combined with lemon, and spread over the skin with a cotton ball. This will make the pimples shrink. For blemishes caused by acne, on the other hand, soak cotton in warm water with salt for three minutes. Follow it up by dabbing ample amount of honey on the affected area.

Wash your face regularly to keep it clean. Use the mildest soaps for your skin, and go easy on rubbing them and pat dry. Wash twice a day, especially when our faces are exposed to a lot of dirt. Use a good exfoliating scrub and a toner when needed.

Stay away from oil. Whether it’s the food you eat, or products and facial creams you use on your face- make sure the oil content is low. Oil brings dirt to the skin, causes whiteheads and blackheads, and more often than not- leads to development of pimples. Avoid greasy foods like chocolate and nuts too.

Whenever you can, steer clear of direct exposure to sunlight. If you can’t avoid the sun completely, then make sure to bring an umbrella with you or wear sunscreen.

Choose all natural skin care products, especially on makeup with less harmful ingredients. When shopping for cosmetics, choose those that are aimed for sensitive skin. Remember that less is more. Don’t wear makeup if you can. Acne isn’t just on the face, so make sure to use shampoos and body soaps that have mild ingredients. The right shampoo is also very important, because hair gets into the face sometimes, and once it irritates the skin, it will cause breakouts to develop.

Maintain a stress-free lifestyle. If you can’t avoid stress completely, then learn to try out different hobbies. These will reduce stress in your body and will also keep the muscles and heart healthy.

Acne at 30?

I can’t believe I am getting acne on my back and shoulders. I’m not a teenager, I’m pushing 30. I didn’t have acne problems when I was in my teens, but now I’ve started breaking out on my shoulders, upper back, neck and on my face as well. I shower every day and I’ve tried changing my shampoo and conditioner, washing my back after I’ve rinsed my hair, Neutrogena body wash, and I wear my hair up all the time. I’ve also tried rubbing alcohol, which kinda helped a little, and i’ve tried putting lotion on after the alcohol so that I don’t over dry it and cause it to produce more oils. For my face I’ve tried different washes, use toner every day, and proper facial moisturizer. I’ve even gone without makeup for a few days and it doesn’t help. It’s driving me nuts!!! Does anybody have any suggestions? I live alone so there isn’t really anyone around to be applying creams to my back
My two sons have had eczema so I know it’s not that.

Well first off you have nothing to be embarrassed about, this is a very common thing, i am in my third year of med school and actually have coverd alot of studies in dermatology, and im even thinking of going in that field, so i when saw your question,i thought i could help you out. It sounds to me like you are applying alot of topical solutions on your outer body parts, though there are products out there that work, almost 70% of acne on the body and face starts from within. As you get older your hormones change and your body starts producing more oils and other body chemicals that start causing blemishes, and even though you shower alot they will still overide due to the fact that it is constantly being released. But i highly recomend going to a dermatologist, they can give you non harmfull medications that can stop acne from within, before it hits your skins surface, and it is actually alot cheaper than people think, infact with all the money you spend on products, it about evens out! there are also other factors like stress and diet, but contrary to popular belief these play minor roles. I hope i could help you out, because its what i plan to do for a career, so if not let me know and i will check out mickey ds! All jokes aside, good luck , and i hope i helped.

anti aging juice Recipe

A diet rich in vitamins and minerals can be a key factor in your fight against the aging process. One of the most pleasant and tasty ways to accomplish this is to consume foods that contain many of these vitamins and minerals such as fruits and vegetables. In the United States people rarely eat the amount of fruits and vegetables that will provide all the necessary vitamins and minerals in the fight against the aging process so a good juice recipe may be the answer.

Brightly colored fruits and vegetable usually have the best nutritional value. Flavonoids are the brightly colored pigments found in most fruits and vegetables. When consumed, they have antioxidant properties that have been associated with having good anti-aging properties.

Almost any type of fruit will have beneficial vitamins and minerals but choosing several fruits will be the most beneficial because different amounts of nutrition will be found in different fruits. Any different combinations of fruits can be used and the only limitation is your taste and seasonal availability.

Oranges, cherries, tangerines, apples, blueberries, cranberries, melons, bananas, plums, grapes, berries, kiwi, and mango would be a good choice to start with. Next try adding complimentary flavors such as strawberry and banana, apple and cranberries, orange and pineapple, mango, kiwi and grape. The search for the perfect juice recipes is never ending and should be attacked with gusto.

Vegetables are known to have great anti-aging benefits. Substances called Antioxidants can neutralize free radical by pairing up or binding with the free radical elections thus inhibiting them from damaging cells in the human body. Natural Antioxidants are abundant in vegetables such as carrots, squash, red and green cabbage, broccoli, spinach, and Spirulina a blue-green algae. If you do not like the flavors of some vegetables including them in an anti aging juice recipe can help disguise the flavor. These vegetables should be included in the daily diet and can easily be consumed in the juice.

Not getting enough fiber in your diet? Try adding wheat germ, flax, and even nuts to your perfect juice recipe. Oat bran muffins lower blood cholesterol among healthy college students by almost 10 percent. One of the great things about creating your own juice is that any kind of supplement can be added. Do you need to lower your cholesterol but do not like the flushing and tingling sensation that comes with taking Niacin tablets. Try blending niacin into your juice. The intake of 3 grams Niacin for as little as two weeks can reduce serum cholesterol by 26 percent.

How about adding a little spice to your life? Rosemary stimulated blood circulation and the nervous system and enhances memory and concentration. The ancient Greeks called it the Herb of Memory and they wore a stalk in their hair to increase memory. Garlic can counteract the usual result of high fats in the diet and to help reduce high blood pressure.

A little research and perhaps a visit to you healthcare professional that is specializing in anti aging medicine can help you decide on which supplements you should take. Supplements will usually have vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, amino acids, hormones or other and can be blended in with the other ingredients of the anti aging juice recipe to increase its benefits.

Creating an anti aging juice recipe is fun and easy and will provide great health benefits to anyone who drinks them daily. Tofu, yogurt, eggs, wheat germ, flax, and other healthy foods can be added to your receipt and the only limitation is your imagination.

If you just feel that you need vitamins, supplements or herbs to fight the aging process then find a good health care professional prior to starting any type of home treatment.

Always consult your doctor before using this information.

Eat Right and Moisturize

by Sharon Bell

A critical step in getting healthy and glowing skin is to eat a balanced diet containing plenty of Vitamins A, C, D and E. And don’t forget the magic word – “MOISTURIZE.â€

Vitamins C and E help prevent skin damage from free radicals which can cause visible lines and wrinkles. Vitamin C also helps the body produce and maintain healthy collagen levels. Vitamin A protects us from sun damage together with Vitamins C and D.

Essential fatty acids found in vegetable oils from tuna, salmon, and nuts help nourish and hydrate the skin and give one a glowing complexion. Getting eight hours of sleep every night is also important. So is exercise that improves blood circulation and one’s complexion. A daily 20-minute walk daily can improve your skin.

However, hydrating the skin is the most important part of any skin care routine. Experts say you should look for products that match your skin type – be it dry, oily or a combination of both.

For soft, smooth, supple skin, use a good moisturizer. Consider your skin type and how your skin responds to different skin care products when choosing an appropriate product for you.

There are many different moisturizers for different skin types. cream moisturizer is the heaviest and thickest of them all and is good for dry skin. People with normal skin can also use cream as a winter moisturizer. A water-based moisturizer is lighter than cream and is best for people with combination to oily skin. It can also serve as a summer moisturizer for persons with normal skin.

Gel is the lightest moisturizer and suits oily skin. It is more solid than cream and is easily absorbed. Oil is a good moisturizer for any skin type. Rose hip oil, in particular, helps heal sunspots, wrinkles and acne scars. Grape seed oil is rich in antioxidants.

Whatever you use, always keep your moisturizer in the fridge. Keeping your moisturizer cool will not only make it stay fresh longer, it will also help freshen your skin and shrink your pores when applied.

Avoid ingredients with odd names or those that only a scientist would understand. The rule of thumb is if you don’t know what it is, don’t use it. You don’t have to be a fall guy for questionable ingredients.

The best moisturizers are those that contain essential oils and pure botanicals like green tea, chamomile and Korean ginseng extract. Rejuvinol comes with these ingredients. Check out www.rejuvinol.com for more information.

Meaningful Beauty Ingredients

Meaningful Beauty is taunted as the latest in skin care products by super model Cindy Crawford. This product was created more than 10 years ago by founder Doctor Sebagh and Cindy. However the line of products was inspired by her and she specifically sought out the doctor for his program on skin maintenance. This was after she had seen changes in complexion Cindy was on board to sponsor the products. It took many years for the actual line to launch due to testing regulations.

The product contains an anti oxidant that is supposed to come from a rare french melon. This is called superoxide dismutase. The company advertises that this oxide, prevents free radicals from being released in your skin because of the enzyme of the melon. It also contains the enzyme, Coenzyme Q10, which they say activates skin rejuvenation in their products.

The advantages of Meaningful Beauty are that there is a notable story, being how the product was formed, especially with the support of Cindy behind the line. There is also a focus on the anti aging benefits within the products which is what attracted Cindy to the line, initially. The product is also easily available online for purchase from a lot of retailers.

As far as the disadvantages are concerned, firstly there is no detailed information on the formula used in the products. Furthermore, there is need for more studies to back up the claims they make in their advertising. There is still inconclusive evidence as to how much the oxidant from the French melon, will really make a difference in fine lines and wrinkles to prevent the aging appearance.

body lotion vs body cream
body lotions vs body butter vs body cream?

so i got this marc jacobs daisy set and it included body lotion, body cream and body butter so i want to know what the REAL difference is. i already know that body lotion is the thinnest then comes body cream than body butter but does it matter when i apply it? and why does it matter how thick and thin they are??

well if you have really dry skin and are looking for a shine, body cream is the way to go. its more concentrated then the lotion and works faster.

if you have average skin and are looking for strong shine and strong scent, body lotion is the way to go. its less concentrated then body cream.

if you have normal/average skin, and just want a sheen, body butter is the way to go.

body butter doesn’t help if your skin is super dry. but if all you’re looking for is the scent, then use whatever.. body creme gives the strongest, followed by body lotion, then body butter.

the thickness and thinness only effect how good your skin absorbs it.
body creme is the thickest
followed by lotion
and though butter may seem thicker, thats only because of all the air in it, it’s the least thickest/concentrated.

but don’t mistake the body butter for the perfume butter/solid… totally different.. the perfume solid/butter is concentrated perfume. reallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllly strong.
