Beauty Tips For Beautiful Glowing Skin

We would all love to have the complexion of a Hollywood starlet and to have their budget to spend on the latest beauty products and spa treatments. But, if like me, you find yourself well below the movie star breadline, there are plenty of at-home beauty tips and treats for your skin to make you look and feel fantastic.

Beauty Tips For Beautiful Glowing Skin
Getting the basics right is the first step to great looking skin. Look carefully at your skin and work out what type it is. Is it dry, oily, normal or a combination? Using the wrong kind of product for your skin can aggravate existing problems.

Look at your daily routine. Time might be short, but proper cleansing is essential for young looking skin. When you apply cleanser and moisturiser to your skin, throw in a quick facial massage to boost lymphatic drainage and get your skin glowing. It may not be a full on spa treatment, but two minutes of massaging in small circles and sweeping movements up your face will improve the quality of your skin. Something as simple as two spoons of baking soda mixed with one spoon of warm water makes a great cleanser, as do many natural oils, such as coconut and jojoba.

Always wear sunscreen, even if it isn’t a sunny day. Most daytime moisturisers will contain an SPF, but it may not be high enough for where you live, and will not last all day. The sun is the skin’s worst enemy. Not only does it make us scrunch up our faces, causing unsightly wrinkles, its rays damage the layers of our skin. This can lead to dark spots, premature aging and even skin cancer. There are no proper at home alternatives to sunscreen, other than avoiding the sun and wearing a hat, so investing in sunscreen is a must.

Treat your skin to a scrub and mask. First cleanse your face thoroughly to remove any dirt then gently exfoliate your skin. This should only be done once a week and the eye area should be avoided. Make a home-made scrub by combining 1tbsp of oats with 1tsp of lemon juice and 2 tsp. of yogurt. Rub gently into your skin then rinse. This can be used all over your body and as a mask by being left on for five minutes before rinsing. Perfect for when you are having a soak in the bath.

Once you are all squeaky clean, keep your skin hydrated by applying a home-made moisturiser. Use a base oil such as almond oil mixed with a few drops of a nourishing oil, like evening primrose oil, plus a few drops of your favourite essential oil; simple, effective and personal to you.

Nothing But Sweat Workout Posted by Lisa-Marie   Warning : Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /var/www/sites/bodyrock.tv/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/bodyrock.tv/wo-breakdown.php  on line  528 . Hi BodyRockers, . Face it you are weird. In today’s world if you train like a warrior, flex your discipline when it comes to your diet, and pass on grazing on donuts in the break room at work chances are you are chided on some level by those around as being weird. Get used to it. Embrace the smell of your sweaty socks. Not many people make a daily practice out of pushing themselves beyond their comfort zones for one workout a day. Not many people step out of what is comfortable for themselves period. This is a niche movement. Not everyone will get why you train this way or why you train at all. Thankfully we don’t need anyones permission or approval, and if we are looking for support we have a place to go where people get it. Being weird requires a good measure of independ

How Air Pollution Is Damaging Your Health

Image
Exposure to air pollution is associated with numerous effects on human health, including pulmonary, cardiac, vascular, and neurological impairments. The health effects vary greatly from person to person. High-risk groups such as the elderly, infants, pregnant women, and sufferers from chronic heart and lung diseases are more susceptible to air pollution. Children are at greater risk because they are generally more active outdoors and their lungs are still developing. Exposure to air pollution can cause both acute (short-term) and chronic (long-term) health effects. The health of our lungs and entire respiratory system is affected by the quality of the air we breathe. In addition to oxygen, this air contains other substances
