Seven Tips for Natural Beauty


Have you noticed that regular men and women, as opposed to some actors, are choosing to age naturally? We, of the baby boomer generation, feel connected to the natural order of things, and aging is a process of nature. Does that mean that we do nothing to maintain or improve natural beauty? Heck no! But, we stand for kindness and simplicity. Animal testing is abhorrent to us. We want to have products that come from nature to grasp our natural beauty.
Natural beauty come from within and without, meaning what we eat affects our skin as an organ and what products we do or do not use will affect that face that stares back at you in the mirror. The average person wants to see a lovely or handsome face, an acceptable first impression. That makes you feel good about yourself and that is a good thing for your skin too. Happy people glow with natural beauty.
I have watched Hillary Clinton, our Secretary of State, age over the last four years. Saying she has a stressful job and life is an understatement. So, for her choice of natural beauty, she must work harder to de-stress, eat and sleep well, and work hard to maintain body balance that shows in glowing natural beauty. I admire that being in the spotlight, Ms. Clinton, provides us a good example of choosing not to go under the knife. She is saying with her actions, to me at least, that this is me without alteration.
Many of those in our aging population choose natural beauty as well. I do. I am proud of my age and what I have accomplished and I don't want to hide it. I do want to present my best face forward. Don't get me wrong. I do not like the baggy eyes, brown spots, numerous wrinkles and big pores. Here is a start toward natural beauty from my experience and research of the literature.
Seven Tips for Natural Beauty
1. Eat colorful produce, the bounty of the earth.
2. Drink at least eight glasses of water daily.
3. Replace red meat with fish.
4. Find a product you like for natural and organic beauty, like Juara.
5. Exercise some each day.
6. Use witch hazel after you wash your face. It is cheap and minimizes pores.
7. Know that you are putting your best face forward and love the skin you are in.
I wish you the best of luck with your quest to age gracefully. Make it easy and fun and you will be successful.

Get Ready for Summer With Hair Removal


With summer fast approaching, it's almost time to bring out your summer dresses, skirts and swimwear. This means it's time to think about effective hair removal. There are so many options when it comes to hair removal - and so many different areas to think about.
Whether you wax or shave, or even tweeze or epilate, is really a matter of personal preference.
In our opinion, the best options are either waxing or IPL hair removal. Read this article to know more about IPL hair removal.
Whilst shaving might be quicker and easier, waxing lasts a lot longer. This is because you're pulling hair right from the roots, rather than just shaving off the tops. You're aso not going to get the cuts and nicks that you can get from shaving nor stubble and shaving rashes, particularly if you have sensitive skin.
Epilating and tweezing can be extremely painful and tedious. Waxing is fast and, when done properly, might not hurt at all.
Additionally, waxing doubles as an exfoliator. Whilst removing hair, waxing also removes a layer of dead skin cells leaving your skin feeling soft, supple and rejuvenated.
Get yourself summer ready and gorgeous with these key areas:
Legs
Your legs are probably the most important hair removal area, particularly in the season of shorts and skirts and sundresses. Your legs will be on display almost every single day and therefore it's essential that they are smooth and perfect.
A professional wax will make sure your legs are hair-free and radiant.
If there's one thing you want to show off this summer, make it your legs.
Underarms
Your underarms are a particularly delicate area, one that can be easily damaged by shaving and other hair removal methods.
A professional wax will remove your underarm hair with care, making sure not to damage delicate skin, while keeping your underarms smooth and hair-free.
Bikini
You're not summer ready until you've taken care of your bikini area. A good Brazilian wax will smooth your bikini area to a flawless poolside finish. You needn't worry or feel self-conscious when you head to the beach this summer or laze by the pool in your swimsuit.
In addition, a Brazilian wax will discourage ingrown hairs, is much smoother and lasts a lot longer than shaving.
Eyebrows
Eyebrows are something you should have maintained all year round - not strictly in summer. Your eyebrows frame your face and are considered to be one of your most important features. The shape of your eyebrows makes a huge difference to the overall appearance of your face.
