How models are the illusion of beauty
Models are used to sell products. From clothes, shoes, hair products, and make-up to cars, chocolate and sofas, models are expected to show these goods in the best light possible. Aftershave advertisements usually involve women draping themselves over men who have just applied said aftershave in order to give the audience the impression that if they, too, use this aftershave they will also get the associated benefits. Models need to be beautiful, without detracting attention away from the product. There is no room for flaws, or anything that makes stand out in anyway. Modelling is about uniformity.
There are exceptions. In the world of catwalk shows it helps to stand out a bit, but even then, it is make-up and clothes which help models to stand out, rather than their faces. Fashion models are expected to be tall, thin, with flawless skin, shiny hair and perfect teeth. However, the reality is often different. Take Kate Moss, for instance. How tall is she? Not tall enough, clearly, because whilst her agency may state that she is 5″8, she seems to be at least a couple of inches shorter. Modelling agencies don’t want to give short people the hope that they too can succeed. They’ve made an exception for Kate Moss, perhaps because they saw a unique selling point in her.
However, even Kate Moss has her off-days. Just take a look at pictures of her when she’s not working. She has spotty skin and doesn’t seem to be ageing too well, which is probably not helped by her cigarette habit. Cigarettes may help keep her slim, but they’re not too kind to the skin. Her hair is also a far cry from the primped and preened hairstyles she has when modelling the latest fashions or make-up. Her sense of style never seems to leave her, but her immaculate presentation certainly does.
Kate Moss has long been a part of the supermodel’ world. She is hardly likely to appear in run-of-the-mill catalogues or downmarket magazine publications. For most models, however, this is the staple of their work. They take what they can get, and have to stay slim and as perfect’ as possible. For any blemishes or any imperfections there is always that marvellous invention: the computer. With digital photography and the use of computers, models can be touched-up to within an inch of their lives. If the people shooting the pictures don’t like what they see, they can simply manipulate the pictures to reflect the image that they want.
Essentially they enhance the model to enhance the product. Models aren’t supposed to reflect reality, but rather the lifestyle that we are all supposed to want to aspire to. This includes a specific definition of beauty.
The life of women in Ancient Egypt – Part 2
As opposed to many other ancient cultures, women in Egypt actually enjoyed a life rather similar to women today. Where as men were considered the head of household, women were allowed to own land, run businesses and even initiate divorce and marriages. Women were in charge of domestic duties which included running the house.
Many women owned and operated their own business, and if their husband ran a business were often left in charge to make decisions while their husbands were away. Other common employments of women were musicians, weaving and professional mourners. Because society was still sexually segregated in some respects, women hired women and men hired men. Although young boys did receive a formal education, young girls were often taught in the home by their mothers to read and write.
As opposed to being viewed as a possession as women have been historically throughout the world, Egyptians legally in theory placed women equal to men in the same class system. If a women choose not to marry, she was able to own her house without a man to watch over her. If mistreated women could divorce, would gain sole custody and had the option of remarrying. Women were not hidden from festivities or prevented from partaking. They ate, drank and got sick as often as men did.
Important to Egyptian culture was hygiene. Because of the hot weather, Egyptian men and women usually bathed daily in the Nile River. They thought of outsiders as dirty and make up was worn throughout the culture from childhood to adulthood, men and women. Kohl, dark make up was worn under their eyes to absorb sunlight much like we use sunglasses today.
Men and women would shave their heads if they were wealthy and use wigs on human hair, or wash their hair daily and massage in rich perfumes. Both genders removed all body hair by shaving or plucking to prevent lice and maintain a pleasing aesthetic.
Young and old wore jewelry for style but also to ward off bad omens. Women would normally wear short skirts. During menstruation she would use pieces of linen to absorb blood. Culturally, a women was thought unclean during this time and men would avoid her.
Disease in the ancient Egyptian culture was prevalent. One reason disease was so rampant was that Egyptians drank out of the same river that they bathed in, the Nile. Medicine was not nearly as good as it is today, and because sand would frequently get in their food, they suffered from abscessed teeth.
A normal women would usually only live to the age of 40. It was common for a woman married at the onset menstruation and be grandmothers by the age of 35. Although most marriages were arranged by parents, it was not uncommon for a man and women to choose their own spouses. They held hands, hugged, loved and fought much like we do today.
All in all, women and men were relatively equal during this time. Although there was a God given distinction and understand of a man and woman’s place a high regard was placed on women. A man could not become Pharaoh without marrying a royal women because the blood line for Pharaoh was passed through the woman. Ancient Egyptian women were not necessarily considered feminists, they just enjoyed an equal status to their male counterparts.
Plus size women fashion tips: Choosing a flattering clubbing outfit – Part 4
You want to look good. Everyone is always interested in looking good, but in a place like a club you might feel more pressure to try and impress the people you will meet. It can be discouraging to feel the need to compete with skinny Paris Hilton types who seems to be able to wear a trash bag and make it look good. The truth is men do not assess women the same way women do, don’t worry about jumping on the latest trend because Paris said you should. Worry about what makes you sexy and what makes you classy.
The difference between classy and trashy
Trashy is only sexy to loser guys. The kind you look back on and think, “Dang, what a useless waste of time!” It might be tempting to wear the sequined hankie that all the magazines are raving about but in reality you won’t be comfortable and you won’t be respected. The secret to flirtatious is leaving a little for the imagination.
You have one distinct advantage over the sticky-skinnies and that is your chest. Don’t over-do it though, a little cleavage goes a long way. A lot of cleavage (especially if it is smeared with glitter) will be shocking and give the impression that you are just trying too hard. Trying too hard is the opposite of sexy, so look for a top that doesn’t plunge too low. A scoop neck, or a criss-cross top will flatter your shape without giving the impression that your chest is a ski-slop that starts under your chin.
A good bra will make a world of difference so make sure you don’t forget it. Make sure your top is something you can wear a bra with. If your chest is over a size C you cannot wear a strapless bra, it just won’t do the trick without straps. It is a good idea to have a professional bra fitting. Any department store in the mall will offer this for free. It might feel awkward to you during the fitting, but having a bra that lifts and supports will change the way you see yourself and make every piece of clothing look better.
Your hips and bum are a great asset, but not if your too-short skirt is distracting everyone by showing off your not-very-toned legs. Go for a diagonal cut skirt, or something with a flirty flounce at the bottom, something that is long enough to hide the back of your thighs.
The anti-asset you are faced with is most likely your tummy. Watch out for fabrics made of rayon or with a lot of spandex in them. The last things you want to accentuate are rolls. Avoid the temptation to wear a tent. Lately a style of shirt is being sold in the stores, and it doesn’t
Hair care tips for women with thin hair – Part 5
*Laying it on Thick: Hair Care Tips for Thin Hair*
Defined as having a significant reduction of strands emerging from the scalp, thin hair occurs for a multitude of reasons ranging from a hereditary complex, poor diet, illnesses and over-processing. Although, inheriting thin hair from a parent is inescapable, there are preventive measures that may be taken to avoid other culprits leading to hair loss. Prepare to pump up the volume with the best tips for achieving thicker tresses.
1. Eat a protein and vitamin-enriched diet.
Consuming a diet rich in vitamins from the B group will promote healthy hair growth and stimulate an unresponsive scalp. Such essential vitamins include biotin, B12 and B6, which are found in dark-green leafy vegetables, liver, eggs and soy products. Biotin serves up nutrients targeted especially for hair re-growth. Furthermore, incorporating healthy fats and oils that contain an excess of Omega-3 fatty acids will encourage healthier strands, while locking in brilliant shine. Fatty fish and nuts, such as walnuts and almonds are excellent sources for these nutrients.
Approximately ninety-eight percent of hair is dead protein; therefore, a protein-enriched diet is conducive to restoring strength to thin hair, as well as improving hair growth. Fish, soy and lean proteins provide an abundance of nutrients without supplying unnecessary saturated fats.
2. ‘Hue’ can make the difference.
Draw the illusion of thicker, voluminous hair by using a semi-permanent color in a hue that is no more than two shades from your natural color. Adding color that is too contrasting to the scalp will make thinner hair more noticeable. On the contrary, professional highlights will instantly spawn the perception of textured hair with depth and body.
Semi-permanent color offers a health advantage over permanent dyes due to the lack of ammonia and peroxide. This means that hair will not be susceptible to the damaging effects of harsh chemicals responsible for irreversible damage, such as breakage and hair loss.
3. Trim hair and restore health.
Request that your hairstylist shape and cut hair to create the perception of thicker, fuller hair. In most cases, shorter cuts that are layered tend to give hair movement and body, while effortlessly delivering a sophisticated look with dimension and thickness. Your hairstylist may also recommend extensions or a hairpiece to fill in the gaps and increase the actual strands of hair. Although, these procedures

How to Have Healthy, Beautiful Skin?
Every woman wants to have a radiant skin; unfortunately, most of them don’t figure out the causes of their skin problems. Each day, our body is attacked by pollution, the sun, sweat, stress, abuse of all kinds such as tobacco, alcohol and unhealthy fast foods. To have a healthy, beautiful skin, it is important to reverse the effects of those aggressors by adopting a healthy lifestyle including eating a healthy diet regular exercise, and good sleep.
However, sometimes, all these efforts on a daily basis are not enough. The more we advance in age, the more the body requires small attentions that require a little cosmetic. My advice to you is using safe and natural skin products. Safe and natural products, applied regularly, can help greatly to protect your look from the ravages of time and pollution. I am talking about feminine beauty to please men and make you feel good about yourself. Finding yourself beautiful is essential to live in harmony with yourself and others.
Keep your skin clean and clear. Taking care of yourself is taking care of your skin on a daily basis. Cleaning the skin must be made daily using products that do not alter its natural balance or damage it. The skin is exposed to external aggression. By its peripheral position, the skin is unavoidably attacked by dust, pollution, which mingling to the sebum and sweat disrupt the balance of its surface. You need natural antioxidant cream to repair those damages. Today, unconsciously, people tend to excessive use of gels or anti-aging products that are, most of times, do more harm to the skin. Be aware that those products can increase your skin’s risk of UV damage.
Taking care of your face
Your face is your passport; do not ever neglect it. The skin of your face is constantly assaulted by the environment: temperature too high or too low, wind, pollution, temperature changes. It needs to be protected by the use of an anti-oxidant cream. Protective cream or restorative cream, the choice of your cream depends on your skin type and your needs. Living in cities, cold, working outdoors or in a confined place, your cream facial must also provide a degree of protection that suits your lifestyle. It must also be adapted to the nature of your skin (dry skin, oily skin, mixed skin), the choice of your moisturizer is essential to better protect the skin of your face and allow it to find the right balance.
Femininity of a beautiful neckline
The arms and chest areas are very sensitive and are also a sign of femininity that each of us likes to discover. But often, the years pass, with a few kilos too many, and not enough physical activity, mean that our arms, our breasts are no longer as energetic as before and become a real complex. These areas are very fragile because they do not have true muscle support and are therefore subject to rapid aging, wrinkles, skin falling and flaccid. For, too often, the neck and chest are forgotten in the care of daily hydration. However, they must be washed, hydrated and treated the same way as the face.
To preserve the elasticity of the skin of those areas, it is important to apply every morning a nourishing and moisturizing cream, taking care to apply a light massage that will activate the superficial microcirculation. Apply a special cream by massaging lightly and gently from the center of the breast to cover the entire breast and up to the neck.
Intimate hygiene
Often taboo, the subject of personal hygiene is often not discussed despite the great importance it takes. What are the gestures to comply, products to use, learn all relevant information. Because staying fresh is a daily concern for both well-being and health, intimate hygiene should not be overlooked. Be simple and natural in your vaginal care; any negligence or overuse of chemical can lead to vaginal issues. In a relationship, vaginal odor is a tough problem for both partners. It is embarrassing for the female, and frustrating for the male.
What products to use for personal hygiene?
All products, shower gels, soaps and bubble baths variety are not necessarily suited for intimate hygiene. Often too aggressive, their pH (acidity level) is different from that of our skin and does not respect the natural balance. The acidity of genital mucous makes it possible to ensure the maintenance of vulvo-vaginal flora necessary to preserve the female genitals of fungal infections and diverse.
Hygiene and menstruation
Whether you use tampons or pads, change them regularly, about every 4 hours (except at night where you can keep them until morning). If you use tampons, be sure to choose the model adapted to the flow of your menstruation, which also varies between the beginning and the end of your period. A tampon too big and absorbing, at the end of the cycle, can irritate the vagina and lead the development of a fungus. In the same way, a tampon changed too frequently can be a source of irritation.
Healthy and beautiful legs
Take care of your legs. The legs are one of the female assets, but can also be a source of much inconvenience. Those who have heavy legs, varicose veins or Restless legs syndrome know what I am talking about. If you want to attract men, pay attention to your legs, they say. Most men get turned on by a hot woman’s legs. Men love looking at women’s hot, sexy legs; maybe there is a secret in that.
What could affect the beauty and health of your legs? – High heels, consumption of alcohol and cigarettes and an unbalanced diet are all aggravating factors of poor blood circulation and therefore pain in the legs with obviously appearance of cellulite, stretch marks and small vessels that burst.
Advice to have beautiful and healthy legs – The fundamental solution is regular exercises with more precisely jogging and jumping. The legs acquire, through regular exercises, greater finesse and elasticity. Their muscles develop harmoniously and the entire body usually takes profits with improved blood circulation.
Diet
Numerous researchers confirm that a healthy nutrition makes a positive difference in skin rejuvenation. Your beauty has a close relationship with what you eat. You are what you eat, they say. However, even if you eat a healthy diet, you also need to avoid eating late at night. Do your best to eat at least 3 hours before going to bed. Eating late can cause chronic indigestion, which can lead to acne, bad breath, belly fat, eczema, and psoriasis. Adjust your diet to your life (sedentary lifestyle, active, sportive), your condition (pregnant, obese), your age (children, youth, adult, elderly) in order not to create imbalance in your diet. Energy needs vary depending on sex and a multitude of other factors.

What beauty products every woman should have – Part 5
As one man phrased it, “I like to see what I am getting.” Basic skin care products are where we must begin-what is under that makeup, ladies? Every woman needs to have a hypo-allergenic cleanser, moisturizer, something to firm under-eye sagging skin and remove and cover those dark circles. She requires special treatment products that firm the skin of the face and neckline once again to remove those wrinkles that come from dehydrated skin. She needs a basic all-over moisturizing lotion and specially formulated sunblock products. SPF30 down to SPF8. In addition, she needs these skin care products without strong fragrances because so many women in our population have allergic reactions or respiratory problems. I know of nothing better than “Principal Secret” skin care products to meet these parameters of basic skin care. They have an entire line customized for the older woman as well as a line for the younger gals. There is an immediate feeling that something new and exciting is happening to your skin as soon as you apply these products as instructed-very easy, very fast.
Not to leave out another well-researched company, Shaklee has the greatest lip care product called “Lip Treatment SPF15″ that is like a chapstick, only it heals and lasts the entire day. I have looked far and wide and this product excels and goes far above my expectations and I have very, very dry chapped lips from medical conditions of recent years, so this is saying something substantial about the Lip Treatment SPF15 product. Shaklee also makes a wonderful combination eyebrow/eyeliner pencil and mascara. Their mirrored pressed powder compact is a wonderful facial powder to use, also.
Principal Secret has a line of other cosmetic products, also. One intriguing product is their liquid foundation that is a combination moisturizer…you do not need a separate moisturizer underneath, so it saves time. Eye shadows come in creme or powder duo cases, a variety of lipstick/lip gloss tubes are fun to see and use and their blush also comes in a compact in a creme base or powder base. They have wonderful brushes that do not “pull out” during use.
What every woman should have? Beautiful skin from the basic skin care products first, then consider the frosting on the cake cosmetics, applied sparingly. Some men do not like all of the makeup “greasiness” or powder that gets on their clothing or hands…they want to touch the real you…so you should have skin that glows naturally. If you have skin problems, do purchase the Pro Active line of products. They really work.
Short on Time? Principal Secret teaches you how to use the most basic cosmetics, skipping the rest, if you need to apply quickly and leave the house. It does not get much better, ladies!
Women’s Health: Change of Life Can Mean Changes in Digestion
Like pregnancy, menopause is one of those periods of life when your hormones fluctuate even more than they normally do — so much so that you might experience digestive troubles similar to those of a pregnant woman. Indigestion, flatulence, gas and nausea are all possibilities. This is annoying if it happens to you, but there are natural supplements available that can improve the digestive aspects of women’s health.
The cause of hormone-induced digestive troubles has two aspects:
• Estrogen is a gastrointestinal stimulant, and varying levels can have you alternating between loose and dry stools.
• Your liver can become fatigued in its attempt to break down the excess hormones produced during menopause.
One function of the liver is to ‘recycle’ excess substances. When hormones circulating in the blood are no longer needed, the liver breaks down their ‘parts’ to make them available for the production of more hormones. Some hormones are produced in such enormous quantities during menopause that the liver gets overloaded, and does not devote the normal energy to the digestion of food. Thus, indigestion.
How to Help Your Digestive System Naturally
If you suffer from either diarrhea or constipation, try taking a fiber supplement. Though fiber softens stools and is usually taken to relieve constipation, it also has a “bulking up” effect, and can bulk up stools enough to slow things down if you’re suffering from diarrhea. Pysllium husk is a common fiber supplement used for this.
Doctors prescribe something called the BRATTY diet for diarrhea that is not caused by an infection. The BRATTY diet consists of:
• B – bananas
• R – rice
• A – applesauce
• T – toast
• T – tea
• Y – Yogurt
Bananas replace lost potassium and firm the stools. Rice and toast also firm the stools, but must be eaten plain. Applesauce contains pectin, a natural bulking agent. Tea replaces lost fluids, but again, drink plain. Yogurt contains protein and replaces the helpful bacteria that can be lost after a couple days of diarrhea. Make sure the yogurt contains ‘live cultures.’
Now let’s look at the second scenario — indigestion.
Enzymes are substances that accelerate and control chemical reactions. Papain is an enzyme found in the papaya fruit. Papain breaks down proteins. Papaya enzyme supplements taken after a meal can help you to digest proteins and help your liver when it’s handling a hormone overload. This relieves heartburn, gas and nausea.
Don’t wait till you’re hit with diarrhea, constipation, flatulence or heartburn — a regular intake of extra fiber and papain supplements will keep your digestive system working more smoothly and help you maintain good women’s health.
Should US companies be required to provide equal pay to women and men? – Part 19
Should US companies be required to provide equal pay to women and men?
Encouraged? Yes. Required? No. Employment compensation should be based solely on value to the company. The term “value”, as it applies here, encompasses many different qualities that employees, whether men or women, can offer to the workplace. These qualities include level of knowledge of the type of work being performed; ability to perform well in the workplace without constant supervision; tenure with the company; level of education; ability to work as a team player if required for the position, and responsibility/accountability, among many others. To simply write a law requiring companies to pay men and women the same salary for the same position would shortchange women and men. Imagine how hard it would be for anyone, male or female, to receive pay raises for excellent work if the government was mandating that they earn the same as everyone else in their department. It would be virtually impossible to advance in your career without a direct promotion to a position with a higher level of compensation. U.S. companies are already encouraged to treat men and women equally in the workplace, and the practice of paying women less than men has been nearly eradicated. Besides this, it would be a difficult and costly law to enforce, and the money to fund its enforcement would come out of the taxpayers’ pockets. To some relatively small extent it does still exist, but just look at the progress women have made in the past fifty years alone! Considering what an explosive force we women have become in all arenas of society, I am certain that we can move up in the workplace without the legislators having to intervene on our behalf.
