Homemade Antiwrinkle creams

Though ageing is an inevitable process, it’s the desire of every woman to look beautiful even in her advancing years. There’s nothing wrong if she resorts to a few external aids to preserve her looks and retain the elasticity and firmness of her skin. While these homemade anti-wrinkle masks help rejuvenate her skin, some of these anti-wrinkle creams might help postpone a few lines and wrinkles on her face. Besides, these creams can be prepared from the comforts of one’s home; the ingredients used are also not that expensive. Instead of spending a fortune on those over-hyped anti-wrinkle creams, these homemade creams seem more viable.woman applying anit-wrinkle mask

    You can amp up the results you get by drinking a lot of water, and maintaining a healthy diet and a consistent exercise program. Be sure to invest in a good sunscreen, too. The right one provides protection against all kinds of UV rays and helps reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles. Large, dark sunglasses can also help reduce crow’s feet, and hey, they look good too!

    Unlike treatments that paralyze or mechanically tighten your skin, ALC’s Skin Tightening treatment stimulates natural, healthy processes inside your skin that make it look and act younger and firmer using clinically-tested infrared and radio frequency (RF) energies to stimulate healthy collagen to naturally fill in wrinkles at the jaw line, around your eyes, at your brow line and around your mouth and cheeks.

    Sun exposure to the eyes can not only damage your eyesight but it can also increase the amount of wrinkles around your eyes, making those crows feet more noticeable over time. Find a stylish pair of sunglasses you like and wear them to drive or be out in the sun

    Applying your makeup correctly is one of the most important things you can do to prevent wrinkles. When you apply eye shadow it is very important that you start on the side of your lid closest to your nose.

    just drink lots of water, eat healthy and use a thick cream every night, and wear sunblock in the sun. if ur trying to get a tan a good way is to apply tanning oil and then spray on spf 20 after. you will get tan without the harmful rays. :)

Aspirin for acne-prone skin

Aspirin has been around for a long time and its health benefits are wide and varied. Aspirin , or acetylsalicylic acid is a salicylate drug, often used as an analgesic to relieve minor aches and pains , as an antipyretic to reduce fever , and as an anti-inflammatory medication. Aspirin's greatest benefit is reducing cardiovascular events including heart attacks and strokes. According to the American Heart Assoc. virtually all women are at risk of heart disease and doctors should more strongly consider prescribing a daily aspirin for their female patients. There is growing evidence to suggest regular aspirin use may reduce cancer and dementia as well. Investigators from the Women's Health Study have reported important new findings demonstrating that aspirin reduces the risk of a first stroke in women. When given to someone immediately after a heart attack, aspirin decreases death by 25%.

Aloevera, the wonder herb

Of all the herbs available in the kitchen garden, aloe is perhaps the richest in healing properties and has been rightly named the “first-aid” plant. It has moisturizing and emollient properties and is used in cosmetic creams, sun-lotions, shaving creams and face packs. It can easily be cultivated as a house-plant in a sunny warm spot with good drainage. Cosmetologists mix aloe with several other herbs and draft fancy names for it. Then these “herbal” avatars are sold at exorbitant prices. Growing a plant and using fresh gel is much more effective than bottled gel, simply because it is alive and therefore is more potent. It is the only plant whose extract is applied directly from plant to face in its natural and purest form.

I Tried a Headache Balm and Ended Up with Rashes

I do have this habit of slathering pain balms whenever I have a headache. But never did I get a skin reaction or rashes from it. It so happened that I had an extremely severe headache a few months ago.  The pain was so unbearable that I gingerly reached out for a pain balm kept on my bedside table and kept on slathering it repeatedly all over the temples of my forehead. Next morning, after I woke up, I found that the skin on my forehead was peeling off and worse there were red rashes!  This was the first time in my life that I was getting rashes from applying a pain balm on my forehead !  I have never had any pain balm allergy or as such!  Side-effects due to application of a pain balm  was something I've never come across all these years! I usually use pain balms of reputed companies – my usual favourites are Tiger balm, Amrutanjan, Zandu balm and Sloan’s balm.  This time I had used Tiger balm. But why did it  give me rashes now, when I had used it...
