Daily Face Regime...:::

All skin types (Normal, Oily, Dry, Sensitive or Combination) need the 3-Stage Daily Routine to remain clean, healthy and in the best condition. It consists of Cleansing, Toning and Moisturizing.
This helps avoid breakouts, soothe blemishes  and reduce the effect of the sun and aging.

Cleansing


This removes dirt, oil and bacteria from your face. You can start by applying a cream or gel cleanser on the face and neck, then massage with your finger tips. Use a cotton wool to clean off the cleanser and wash your face with a foaming face wash or other face washes, using warm water. Be sure to only use soaps made for the face, if the package does not say it is "for face and body" then it is not meant for your face. Face soaps are gentler and may help with blemishes.
For sensitive skin, avoid all soaps and use hypo-allergenic cleanser instead.

Toning


Toners remove any trace of dirt or the cleanser that may remain on the face after washing. They also tighten the pores while preventing a build up of dead skin cells. With sensitive skin especially, it is best to use toners without alcohols like ethanol, methane and isopropyl (check ingredients before you purchase!) Those with rose water or mineral water are better.
Drop some drops of the toner onto a cotton wool, and using gentle circular motions, clean your face and neck. Try not to drag on the skin and concentrate on the T-zone (forehead, nose and chin area) and avoid the delicate area around the eyes and lips.

Moisturizing


A good moisturizer helps balance the drying effects of the sun, wind, cold and pollution. A Day Cream should have an SPF (Sunscreen) and should be absorbed into the skin easily. While A Nigth Cream should be more nourishing as your skin readily absorbs moisture while you sleep, and restores itself.
Choose a moisturizer for your skin type, use your fingertips to apply a small amount to your face and neck while massaging in gentle circular motions.
Wait 5 minutes before applying make-up so your skin can absorb the nourishment, and so your makeup stays on for longer instead of gliding off the moisturizer.

For best result, follow these steps twice everyday, morning and evening. It may seem like a chore but trust me, once you get used to it you'll be happy with how healthy your skin looks and you don't have to spend so much on facial treatment...:::

Face Shapes...:::

You can’t talk about beauty without thinking about the shape of the face. This affects our makeup, hair, and even clothing styles.

Achieving Your Goals - Getting it Done

Image
5 minutes read The new year usually makes you want to set a target or resolution - something you want to do or a change you want to make. It usually starts off great but sometimes we drop it before the year is through, without accomplishing the goal.  Then, the following year you still find yourself wanting to do, create, have, give or experience that same thing, or even something bigger. So you set yet more goals and may probably not get them done. It happens to the best of us but there's a way - a proven way that has worked for decades.  I'm here to simplify it for you so we can have it done together - This year is all about accomplishments.  Before I tell you how to achieve your goals, let me quickly give you a refresher on what goals are and how to set the right goals for success - because that's the first step to success.  Goal Setting Goals are simply the things we want to achieve .

Understanding Your Hair

Great hair is indeed possible, once you understand your hair. We all crave to have healthy, longer, shinier hair, so read on and be on your way to understanding what your hair needs and could do without. Basically, we have 2 types on hair on our body: Vellus hair which is found all over our body, on the upper lip and forehead. It is very fine and short hair which is usually not colored (un-pigmented, usually translucent) and doesn't grow longer than 2cm. This hair has just 2 layers: the cortex and cuticle. Terminal hair which is the longer, coarser, pigmented hair that grows on our scalp, eyebrows, eyelashes, armpits and groin. This hair has 3 layers : the medulla in the middle filled with air and proteins, the cortex containing melanin, and the cuticle on the outside. When hair emerges from our scalp it has about 6 - 10 layers of cuticle. The cells of the cuticle overlap  at about a 5 degree angle (looking like the tiles on a roof), pointing down towards the tips of the
