choosing the best organic skin care products for your skin.

We are constantly bombarded with ads for one type of environmentally

friendly product after another, so there's no doubt that going green is on in

the minds of many consumers. Many manufacturers are jumping on the

'green' bandwagon and that can make it very difficult to know which

organic skin care product is truly organic.

There is very little regulation when it comes to labeling of cosmetics.

Food, alcohol, even household cleaners have more labeling regulations

than the products you put on your skin like lotions, in your hair such as

shampoos, conditioners and even in your mouth, like toothpaste and

mouthwash.

So what do you do as a consumer who wants to drastically cut back on

the potentially cancer causing chemicals in the cosmetic and personal

care products you buy?

Today we are going to go over some helpful tips on what to look out for

when purchasing your health and beauty products. While I can't cover

every product on the market in this issue I will do my best to give you

enough information to get started.

The first thing you need to be on the lookout for is any product that has an

ingredient that says 'derived from'. This means that the original, natural

ingredient has been chemically modified, possibly to the point of now

being toxic. Many companies find it cheaper to substitute natural products

with manmade alternatives, but they still want to create the illusion that

their product is all natural, or organic.

Another thing to be on the lookout for, and one of the favorite tricks of

cosmetic manufacturers, is the term 'infusion'. This implies that a

wonderful, healthy infusion of a certain organic ingredient has occurred.

The reality is that the ingredient has been so diluted as to be virtually non-

existent in the product.

It would be like me taking a glass of ice water, squirting some lemon juice

in it and packaging it in a wrapper that says 'infused with lemon'. While it

might be technically true there is lemon in the product, it's in such a small

amount it's inconsequential.

Since the cosmetic industry has a rather loose definition of 'organic' it is

difficult, but not impossible to find products that truly are organic.

When most people think of organic products they think of things from

nature, without being processed and combined with man made

chemicals. There are some manufacturers out there that adhere to this

code.

If you really want to make sure the product you are buying is totally

organic you can look for labels from a third party.  There are many

reputable certified  organizations, which have followed the manufacturing

process of the product, from the way the plant was grown, all the way

through to the way it is being packaged stored and shipped.

While many of the greedy cosmetic manufactures, who are trying to cash

in on the 'organic craze', make it hard for a consumer to know which

products truly are organic and which are not, it's important to remember

that there are many fine organic skin care product available. It might take

a little looking, but it is well worth the hunt.

Home remedies for irritating dry skin.

When it comes to treating dry skin there are a wide variety of different

options available and finding the right treatment for your skin type is

extremely important. As with any process finding the right regimen for

your dry skin may take some time and patience, but once you do it can

help restore your skins natural balance which will make your skin look

more radiant and youthful.

Let's go over a few home treatments you can try to help relieve your

irritating, dry skin:

- Avocado mash

Mash up half an avocado, mix it with a couple of drops of fresh

lime juice and spread the paste on your skin. Be sure to thoroughly

cleanse your face before applying the paste. Allow it to remain on your

skin for between 15 minutes and 20 minutes, then rinse it thoroughly,

while alternating warm and cold water. This is a great way to add

moisture to the skin and achieve a healthy glow.

- Cleanse with mineral water

If you suffer from dry flaky skin, especially on your face, consider using

mineral water when you cleanse. Tap water is often laden with chemicals

that strip the natural oils and nutrients from your skin. Mineral water adds

healthy minerals to your skin and leaves it feeling soft and well

moisturized.

- Peanut paste

-  Blend three or four tablespoons of raw peanuts, a little bit of milk and a

teaspoon of raw honey into a smooth paste. A food processor works best

for this. Apply the paste to your face and any other place where your skin

is dry and allow it to completely dry, then wash it off with cold water. The

natural oils and antioxidants in peanuts are excellent for relieving dry skin.

*Warning - Do not use this remedy if you have a peanut allergy*

- Extract

Before you go in for a bath, try adding between 5 drops and 6 drops

worth of lavender oil or oat extract to your bath water. When your skin

soaks up the water and becomes soft, it will also soak up the extracts or

oils in order to improve upon your dry skin.

- Milk bath

Take a milk bath once a month. This is an age old home remedy for

dealing with dry skin that is well worth trying. A milk bath is both soothing

and softening for the skin. Don't worry; you don't have to invest in 20

gallons of help to make this happen. Powdered milk will do the trick.

Simply do a search online and you will find countless recipes for

homemade milk baths.

- Don't forget the fruits and veggies

As we have discussed before one of the best ways to have soft silky skin

is by including more fresh fruits and vegetables in your daily diet. Fruits

and vegetables because they are rich in Vitamin B and Vitamin A, and

both of these vitamins are especially helpful in keeping your skin feeling

young, healthy and moisturized.

You can experiment with some of these, look for others (online) and don't

be afraid to combine different remedies so that you can create a dry skin

care regimen that works best for you.

some great ways to cover dark under eye circles and reduce puffiness. ...

how to remove dark circles 

 As we age puffy eyes and dark circles can become a reoccurring

problem that is not only irritating it's hard to cover up. They can also make

us feel less than beautiful. But never fear, there are natural treatments and

over the counter products that can help reduce puffy eyes and dark

circles when used properly. The trick is finding the one that works best for

your situation.

As we have discussed before a healthy inside leads to a healthy outside,

so one of the first things you can do is reduce your consumption of

salt. Also add Vitamins A, C, and E to your diet. Make sure you are

getting enough sleep as well.

There are also popular home remedies that can work to remove the

puffiness and darkness. These include applying is to apply (Green) tea

bags, fresh cut cucumbers, cold spoons or (this may sound odd) a

hemorrhoid cream like Preparation H.

These can all work very well for short-term relief. Just keep in mind when

using the hemorrhoid cream be sure not to use it every day and avoid

getting it in your eyes because it can be harmful

When locating products for puffy eyes, look for ingredients with horse

chestnut that promotes micro-circulation. Aloe that soothes and hydrates.

Ivy to decongest and eliminate excess water. Caffeine to decrease the

swelling. Green or white tea to soothe the redness and inflammation.

Cucumber to reduce the inflammation. Licorice to reduce the puffiness

and soothes the irritation.

When you're seeking a longer fix there are injectable wrinkle fillers such

as Juvederm and Restylane, but these should only be administered by

licensed professionals and only when you've exhausted other less

invasive treatments. The filler is injected around the puffy area to remove

the indentation as the result of the puffiness.

Botox is also commonly used to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles. They

all have the same effect of creating a younger appearance to the eyes

These methods are often very costly and usually only last a few months

before the procedure needs to be repeated.

Some people have the daily morning darkness referred to as “raccoon

eyes” that is near the underside of their eyes making the person appear

tired, older, and drug out. The fact some people have it naturally even with

getting the right amounts of sleep lead them to seek alternative products

to remove the dark circles.

Look for products with Vitamin K to stimulate the blood flow and repair

the broken capillary walls near the eyes. Vitamin A, C, and E to reduce

the free radicals and to increase the antioxidant protectors. Peptide

technology to promote collagen synthesis to firm the eye tissue.

Hesperidin to strengthen the capillaries to reduce the leaking and reduce

blood pooling as well as improving the micro-circulation in the eye region.

Konica acid to lighten the skin areas from discoloration. Eyebright, pearls

and light diffuser to visually filter light and to brighten and illuminate the

eye regions.

To camouflage the darkness use a peach or salmon colored concealer.

For the puffiness use nylon concealer brush to add a thin layer of a

product in the creases below the puffy area. After you add a concealer a

few shades darker than your foundation. Apply the foundation before the

concealer.

When it comes to treating dark circles and puffy under eyes the process

is often time-consuming and requires a lot of trial and error before finding

the regimen that works best for you.

simple and effective ways to help stop thinning hair.

Many people consider hair loss as an exclusively a male problem, but the

truth is that hair loss can affect men, women and even children. There are

many factors that can lead to hair loss. Heredity is often a main

contributor, but a poor diet, health problems and other factors can also

lead to thinning hair.

If you are troubled with thinning hair don't despair there are several things

you can do to slow down, stop and even reverse the process altogether.

Let's go over a few easy things you can do right away that may help

prevent further hair loss and even help you regrow some of the hair you've

already lost:

- So much attention is paid to the hair itself that the scalp and then goes

unnoticed and uncared for. That is a mistake! Think of a garden, you'll

never have healthy plants if you don't have quality ground for your plants to

grow with.  Your scalp is like the 'soil' for your hair, it needs to be healthy

in order to produce a healthy 'crop' of hair.  Make sure when you

shampoo your hair, which you should do often to prevent  a buildup of dirt

and oils and residue from hair care products, that you take some time to

do a gentle scalp massage.

- Take it easy on the harmful things you do to your hair and be careful

which products you use.  When looking for shampoos and conditioners

you should consider all natural products.  Many shampoos still have

sulfates in them. These are very harsh chemicals and they were put in

shampoo to create foam, but the long term effect on your hair, and your

scalp as a whole, can be very serious.

- Go easy on perms, hair coloring and heated styling devices, including

hairdryers.  Instead try to let your hair air dry as much as possible and if

you do want to color your hair wait at least 6 weeks between each

treatment.

-  Try to avoid hair styles that can break your hair.  Things like pony tails

and cornrows are horrible for your hair since they will tear, rip and stretch

the hair which can cause permanent damage.  Try to wear these hair

styles sparingly.

-  Make sure to keep your hair healthy by keeping your body healthy. Just

like with your skin a healthy diet is essential to growing a beautiful, full

head of hair. Make sure you get the proper vitamins and minerals. Also

drink plenty of water and get enough sleep.  We often forget that what

happens on the outside of our bodies, such as hair loss, is sometimes a

direct result of what's going on inside of our bodies.

-  You can amp up your diet by taking supplements. Calcium, in particular,

has been shown to help strengthen the hair roots and hair follicles at

the scalp which can lead to more and thicker growth.

By following some of these simple steps you can help ensure that you'll

keep a full head of healthy, beautiful hair for years to come.

We've learned a lot about our bodies in the last several decades

especially when it comes to anti-aging.  We now know that some signs of

aging are not inevitable. We do have some control and just making a few

simple changes to your daily routine you can be healthy on the inside and

more beautiful on the outside.

Quick and easy tips for naturally beautiful skin.

Is your skin dull, dry and unhealthy?

If it is, then chances are you will try just about anything that promises to

help make your skin have that healthy glow we all long for. Having

beautiful healthy skin doesn't have to be that hard. It also doesn't require

over produce oils, which can lead to breakouts and other unwanted side

effects. Cleansing helps eliminate dust and debris from your face by

cleaning the pores and promoting good circulation.

- Use a good moisturizer to protect the skin from dryness. To avoid the

need for two separate products look for a moisturizer with SPF

protection. One of the best times to apply moisturizer is after a bath as it

blocks the moisture of your skin.

- Water is essential for hydrating your skin, so as we discussed in your

last issue always be sure to drink at least eight glasses of water

every day. When you start following this simple tip you will see an

almost immediate improvement in the quality of your skin. Plus drinking

plenty of water is helpful for flushing toxins out of the body and in keeping

the complexion clear and glowing.

- Get plenty of sleep. Lack of sleep reeks havoc on every part of our

body, including your skin. It can lead to premature wrinkles, dry flaky

patches,  breakouts and more.

- A healthy and balanced diet is extremely in important to beautiful,

glowing skin. a healthy diet should consist of fresh fruits and vegetables.

stimulate the blood flow to your entire body which in turn helps your skin

apply the milk all over the face and neck. Leave it for 15 to 20 minutes

and then cleanse your face for a beautiful healthy glow.

sugar. Then gently massage the paste on your face. Leave it for 2 to 3

minutes and wash it off. This gives your skin a smooth and refreshed

appearance.

than costly salon treatments or over-the-counter products. The road to

beautiful skin doesn't have to be difficult in just need to find a routine that

works best for you and follow it every day.

Natural and very beneficial anti-aging remedies.

Aging is a natural process that affects us all and as we get older most of

us wish we could slow down the effect that age has on our bodies. Even

though it may not seem so our skin is very delicate and extremely

sensitive to sun damage, strong chemicals, products and cosmetics.

That's why it's extremely important to protect it, treat it well and look for

natural ways to help prevent damage and slow down the aging process.

There are many natural remedies and products available that can help

slow down the aging process. These natural remedies are often less

expensive and safer when compared to other more invasive techniques

like cosmetic procedures, surgery or other chemical solutions. Which

makes them a great option when it comes to reducing the effect that time

has on our skin.

Generally, these more gentle treatments are composed of various

natural ingredients like fruits, vegetables, botanical oils, vitamins and

herbal extracts which are essential for restoring moisture, balance and

restoring the elasticity of the skin while maintaining its softness, which in

turn helps you maintain a younger appearance.

These herbal extracts and natural ingredients are inexpensive and can be

found at your local grocery or health food store. They often provide a

much better solution to cleansing and treatment than the harsh chemicals

found in most over-the-counter products.

Now let's go over a few great natural ingredients that you probably

already have in your kitchen that you can use to start fighting the aging

process right away:

1- Coconut hydrates and moisturizes. It can be used on your skin and hair.

For your skin simply grate a raw coconut, squeeze the coconut shreds,

extract milk and apply the milk on the face and let it dry. Rinse it with

warm water

2- Avocado is Mother Nature’s moisturizer, simply mash up an avocado

and apply it to your face as a mask for 15-20 minutes

3- Apply castor oil to soften your skin and eliminate wrinkles.

4- Blemishes and aging spots can be removed by applying a few drops of

lemon juice on the face.

5- Your skin is an organ so remember to drink plenty of water to help flush

away toxins and excess debris.

6- Make a paste of sugar cane juice mixed with turmeric powder which is

quite effective in controlling wrinkles and preventing the skin from aging.

7- The enzyme in pineapple helps remove dead skin and reduces subtle

signs of aging. Mash some pineapple and rub it on your face as a mask.

Allow your face to dry for 10-15 minutes then rinse thoroughly.

8- Certain essential oils act as effective natural remedies for anti aging.

Drops of oils like sandalwood, geranium, rosewood, rose jasmine, neroli,

and frankincense are to be taken and mixed with primrose oil or any other

oil which can be used as base oil.

9- Facial massage is another good natural remedy for anti aging. Blood

circulation is increased by massage which results in tightening of the

muscles and tissues.

10- Green seedless grapes can be taken and cut into half and

then gently crushed on the skin. Leave it for 20 minutes and then rinse it

with warm water.

11- Vitamin E oil or cod liver oil is to be applied daily to the skin. The aging

spots shall fade.

- Remember healthy on the inside reflects on the outside so be sure and

include plenty of fruits and vegetables in your diet. There are many fruits

and vegetables that you can eat to help prevent aging. Some of them are

carrots, cabbage, spinach, broccoli, strawberries, tomatoes, red

peppers, oranges, grapes, turnips, etc.

remedies and treatments we can all protect and nourish our bodies as

Beauty Basics Issue

Welcome to your first issue of the Beauty Basics. Inside each

issue you will receive valuable information, tips and techniques that you

can use to enhance your own natural beauty, so you look as good on the

outside as you are on the inside.

We've all heard the old saying "beauty comes from the inside" and There

is a lot of truth to that statement! However, as you probably already know

there are things that we can do to help enhance our natural beauty on the

outside as well. In this first issue we are going to go over a few general

tips that you can use for all over beauty.

- Get plenty of sleep

To help keep yourself looking Young and beautiful be sure that you get an

adequate amount of sleep every night. Never underestimate the effect

that too little sleep can have on your body because it can literally age you.

The average person needs from six to eight hours of sleep a night to

rejuvenate their body, skin, and brain.

- Break out the baking soda

Baking soda can be your best friend when it comes to staying beautiful. It

is one of those products that you should always keep handy. For beauty

purposes you can use it to make your shampoo work better, especially if

you have light colored hair because it will remove any residue left behind

by chlorine or other things. You can also use it to whiten your teeth, take

the pain of sunburn away and the best part is all this can be done for

around the dollar.

- Pamper your feet

To keep your feet looking beautiful, especially during the warmer, dryer

summer months, try applying Vaseline to them daily. Make sure to deeply

massage it into your feet. It will keep your feet smooth and soft. Then go

treat yourself to a pedicure and get a pair of strappy, sassy sandals, and

show of your cute, new pedicure. With this trick you'll have the best

looking feet of the season!

- Reduce the shine

If you have skin that tends to get oily and shiny, you can do one of two

things throughout the day. If you want to be fancy, you can buy a packet of

face-blotting sheets. These smell wonderful and are impregnated with

scented transparent powder. Or you can take a sheet of regular toilet

paper and press, not rub, on the oily areas. Another option is to buy a

face wash that keeps your skin from getting oily and shiny.

- Extend the life of your eye shadow

Make any eye shadow bend to your will. If you are bored with the

shadow choices in your everyday makeup palette, it is definitely time to

spice it up a bit and get creative. Try using a moistened eye shadow

brush to apply your shadow. This will give the eye shadow more

pigmentation in its color and it will be brighter and more interesting than it

was before. You can also use try this trick out as eyeliner!

- Switch to a pencil

Try using an eye pencil instead of liquid eyeliner if you can. Eye pencils

can give a more natural subtle look, while liquid eyeliner may be too

much. If you do like to use liquid liners try using an eye-lining marker. Eye

markers allow you to have more control and you can do thicker, more

dramatic lines, or thinner, subtle lines. If you choose to use liquid

eyeliners or with any kind of eyeliner, try this trick: Pull your eyelid

downward with one hand while applying the liner with your other hand.

Start from the outer corner of your eye and go towards your inner corner.

This will cause less wrinkles on your eyelids.

- Remove makeup properly

It is important that you buy a special make-up remover. Especially if

you use waterproof make-up. Seeing that it is waterproof, it is much

harder to remove than regular make-up and requires more than just

water. If you do not have makeup remover strong enough to take off

waterproof eye makeup try using some Vaseline and just massage it onto

your eye then just wipe it off. I suggest using an old wash cloth to wipe the

makeup off because it will stain. It is important that you remove your

make-up before bed. Especially remove you foundation everyday

because it will clog your pores and cause acne.

- Don't forget the SPF

Apply a lotion or cream containing SPF every day before doing your

daily foundation routine. You can also purchase a tinted moisturizer. This

will leave you with smooth skin and protection from the sun! You have to

live your whole life with the same skin and it is worth the investment to

protect it. You should definitely start off each day with a coat of sunscreen

before you even think of going outside. Your skin will thank you.

- Soften while you shave

If you run out of your favorite shaving cream and you don't want to use

soap to shave your legs because of the drying effect, try using hair

conditioner! Coating your legs with conditioner before shaving will soften

the small hairs and make it easier to shave This will leave your legs

feeling super soft and silky.

While these are all great tips that you can use in your everyday life to help

yourself look and feel more beautiful, the bottom line is, if you feel good

about yourself then you will always be your most beautiful you!

Make sure you look for your next issue soon. We will be talking about

some natural and very beneficial anti-aging remedies.
