Beauty tips for men – Part 3

Men need to pay attention to beauty tips as much as women. After all, they want woman to notice them. So, to feel secure in their looks they should pick up on some tips on how to look and stay appealing.

1) Keep the hair in a style and neat looking. Some guys are a knock out with their short styled hair, while others are a heartthrob with their long hair tied into a tail. It’s not the length of the hair that makes it right or wrong; it’s what you do with it.

Keep it clean and healthy. Guy’s hair is no different from girl’s. They need to use quality hair products and even moisturizing treatments to maintain healthy looking hair.

So, keep your hair clean and healthy, and wear it in a style that suits you.

2) Shave often. Some guys suit moustaches or beards or both; others don’t. If you are one that looks great in a moustache or beard, then keep it neat and trimmed. Nothing looks more grotesque than a guy with a beard that has food or “stuff” caught in it.

And nothing looks more attractive than a guy who keeps his facial hair trimmed.

3) Check the breath. If you smoke then you should really keep some kind of mints or breath spray on hand. Stale, dead smoke on the breath is very distracting.

And remember to keep mints on hand anyway to keep your breath fresh. Sometimes foods have a way of hanging on to you and scaring off the rest of us.

4) Keep the teeth clean. A beautiful inviting smile is always accompanied with healthy white teeth. Make it a regular habit to clean them at least twice a day, or more often if you’ve eaten food for lunch that your teeth managed to hold on to.

And have regular dental maintenance done on your teeth so that they look healthy. It’s a well-known secret that a guy who takes the time to care for his teeth is someone who tends to details.

5) Use an effective underarm deodorant. Some guys look so inviting and then when we get near them, they’ll lift up their arm for something and we almost choke. Use a deodorant that keeps away all that bad body odour.

And use an ant-perspirant deodorant that prevents all those wet yellow rings from forming on your shirts. It’s very distracting and even though you might not reek of bad body odour, no one is going to get close enough to notice.

6) Keep your fingernails clean and trimmed. You may look great in that Armani suit but dirty fingernails are a definite turn off.

7) Use a friendly body spray. Perfumes may not be your thing but it’s always nice for the rest of us when guys wear just enough sensual scent to draw us close to them.

Customs and natural products used by Egyptians for personal beauty tips – Part 1

The Egyptians were famous for their daily beauty rituals which transcended social and economic backgrounds. With the roots of aromatherapy deriving in Egypt it shows that the Egyptians believed in a holistic approach to beauty and the belief that the body could not be separated from the mind, soul and spirit.

From the lowliest wage earner to the Egyptian kings and Queens all were concerned about their daily rituals. Body oil was of utmost importance, so much so that oil was used as part of a wage earners pay packet. The poor used castor oil while the rich used fragrant oils which could take up to six months to produce. The importance of body oil was probably due to the fact that living in a dry, arid country they needed to protect their skin from drying out from the assault of the sun. Both men and women used body oil and cosmetics, one of the reasons for makeup were to appease the goddess Hathor, who is the goddess of beauty, love and fertility. Many of the ingredients used by the Egyptian are still being used today. Oil was not only used to protect against dryness, but certain blends were used by women to protect against stretch marks during pregnancy and by men to stimulate hair growth and combat balding. Frankincense mixed with oil was most commonly used to eliminate stretch marks, scars and to slow wrinkle formation.

An ancient Egyptian formula for wrinkles was to mix Frankincense, Meringa oil grass and fermented fruit juices. Today it may be difficult to copy this formula exactly due to unavailability of some ingredients, so an alternative mixture can be made using, one tsp. of sweet almond oil, two drops of essential oil Frankincense, massaged into clean skin every night.

Artifacts found in Egyptian tombs were eye palettes, tweezers, razors wigs and sealed unguent pots. The scents in the pots still remained when opened even after thousands of years. Perfume was an important part of the daily ritual. It was found that the Egyptians had access to at least twenty one different types of vegetable oil which are still being used today.

The Egyptians were famous for their eye makeup. So much so that it would seem remiss to show an image of an Egyptian without it. The eye makeup was usually made from Mesdemet which is derived from Galena (lead sulphide) or Stibnite (antimony sulphite). Eye makeup was used to protect against the “evil eye”, helped to deflect the sun and also had medicinal purposes. Galena has disinfectant and fly repelling properties. Medemet

Beauty Tips – Face Care Natural Way

Your face is what you show the world, a fresh well kept face looks radiant, energetic and fresh. Not to mention the fact that it is a big confidence booster. You no longer will feel shy of meeting people once your face looks the way it is supposed to. Today maintaining a fresh and energetic face is easier and less time consuming as some might imagine.

The market is flooded with beauty products for every kind of skin type, skin condition, and skin tone. These items can range for the generic brands set at reasonable prices to the top of the line products which can become very expensive. Instead of paying a lot of money to the department stores, have you ever considered making these same products for yourself? It’s true. It can be done and the products you create at home can be just as, if not more, effective than anything you can find on a shelf.

Let’s start with ingredients. Before running off to another store, check your cabinets and refrigerator. Do you have oatmeal? How about yogurt? Great! Now you are all set to make a simple facial cleanser. Just add enough yogurt to a ½ cup of plain oatmeal. Rub gently all over your face. Be careful to keep it out of your eyes. Rinse the mixture off with lukewarm water and viola – you’ve got a cleaning and conditioning facial.

Need to improve the elasticity in your face? Go to the refrigerator and grab an egg. Separate the yolk from the egg white. Put the egg white into a bowl and whip with a manual egg beater. Apply to your entire face and allow it time to dry completely. Rinse the egg from your face with warm water. Can you feel the difference? Your skin should feel tighter and smoother. It really is that easy.

Do you suffer from dry skin? Get the yogurt back out and measure one tablespoon. Mix the yogurt with one tablespoon of honey. Be sure to mix well. Smooth the cream in to your entire face. Do not rinse your face. The mixture will re-hydrate the skin and provide much needed moisture.

Acne plagues not only young teens but older adults as well. For a simple acne treatment at home, try combining one part bran with one part baking soda and add enough water to form a paste. Apply the paste to your entire face and keep the mixture on for about 15 minutes. Use one part apple cider vinegar to eight parts of water to make a rinsing solution to clean the paste from your skin.

Not only are natural beauty remedies inexpensive and easy, they also prevent you from consistently exposing yourself and your skin to unnecessary harsh chemicals which can build up in your body and lead to even bigger issues. There are many places to find creative ways to produce your own beauty products, even your Grandma may have some tips of her own.

Regardless, of what your concerns and problem areas are, you can have a little fun experimenting with your own ingredients and ideas.

Even if you opt to buy off the shelve products make sure that they are made from natural ingredients and don’t contain synthetic or chemical ingredients. Also take a look at the directions of use and the warning label if there is one to make sure that it does not cause any side effects or is just limited to use on a few skin types. This will ensure that you never run into trouble when using off the shelve products. However only use off the shelve products if you don’t have the time to prepare these for yourself at home.

Beauty Tips – Self-Protecting Feminine Hygiene

Most women always go the extra mile to over protect and over clean themselves using various commercial products. This however has more of an adverse affect rather than a positive affect.

Advertisements make it seem like all women are in need of various soaps and pads and perfumes and sprays for their private areas. It’s easy to think you need to start using them based on the number of advertisements you see on tv or in magazines for feminine hygiene products; but the female body comes equipped with it’s own natural protection- and you may not need as many feminine hygiene products as you’ve been led to believe. We actually end up harming the body’s self-protecting processes when we use some of these products that are supposed to help feminine hygiene.

The skin over our bodies are what protect us from the harmful things in the world we live in! We need to take care of our skin by keeping it clean and washing away as many germs as possible, but we can over do the washing and cause more harm than good by washing away the natural oils in our skin- the very ingredient that helps protect us. The only area of the body that should require more than a gentle cleansing on a regular basis are the bottoms of our feet- because we really make our feet work hard day after day! We can assist our skin in protecting us by slathering on a sunscreen when spending time outdoors, and wearing appropriate clothing for the weather conditions when outdoors.

A woman’s body has needs that are unique to females. The body, however, is quite well equipped to handle those needs. The female’s private area helps protect her from germs with natural oils that clean out infections. Women need only keep the outer skin of their private area clean to help the body perform it’s natural functioning.

Some women choose to use pantiliners or other pads to absorb the body’s natural moisture. Other than times when spotting may occur from your monthly cycle, you should really avoid these pads as they are actually eliminating the body’s natural defenses against infections. Also, when you use the pads or pantiliners excessively, the body may think something is wrong and respond by increasing the amount of discharge.

The female private area is sensitive and using sprays with deodorant or perfumes can cause more problems than it’s worth- and it doesn’t remove the body’s natural odor anyway. If you find that your natural odor has changed; see your doctor as it may be an indication of infection.

For women who have problems or complications that are out of the ordinary, such as extra sensitive skin, or burning sensations they should visit the doctor for advice before they use any commercially available products. All the products advertised on television or in magazines are not meant for each and every woman. Yes many of the products are useful, but not for everyone, on the other hand many of the products also go the extra mile to eliminate your bodies personal defense.

When in your cycle be sure to dress lightly, and drink a lot of water, this helps the body take over the hygiene process and eliminates any odor.
