Why use mineral makeup?

Mineral makeup is all the rage since late last year. It's only gaining momentum early this year. And now it doesn't seem to end its run. Mineral makeup has proven itself very beneficial and the best natural skin care product you'll ever use.

Mineral make-up is non-comedogenic, which means it does not block the pores of the skin but instead allows the skin to breathe. This makes it the perfect cosmetics to use for sensitive skin, or for people who suffer from skin problems. Applying makeup on acne can aggravate the condition instead of helping it, but with mineral makeup, using cosmetics for acne-prone skin is easy and comfortable.

Mineral makeup has a much lighter, almost weightless quality. Many users have reported that wearing mineral makeup felt like wearing no makeup at all. Mineral makeup also leaves the skin with a very natural radiant glow.

For those suffering from oily skin, mineral makeup can provide an excellent solution. The usual chemical-based cosmetics contain oils or oil-producing ingredients. These oils can cause skin problems, especially in those with oily skin. These can be avoided by using mineral-based makeup, since no oils or oil-inducing ingredients are used in manufacturing them.

For older users with mature skin, mineral makeup is well-suited for hiding the skin’s wrinkles, crow's feet and fine lines because it reflects sunlight, resulting in a very healthy and glowing appearance. The top brands of mineral makeup need only be applied once a day and are found to be water resistant. Also, unlike traditional cosmetics, you can even go to sleep with mineral makeup on, so you can apply it before going to bed if you know you will be rushed for time the following day.

Skin Care Benefits of Using Sulfur Soap

A sample of sulfur (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Despite its acrid smell, a bar of sulfur soap brings many health benefits to your skin through its antiseptic, anti-fungal and antibacterial qualities. In olden times, individuals had to take a dip in sulfur-rich hot springs located at a distance from an active volcano. Spas often appeared around these areas to provide patrons privacy and comfort while they visited the pools of heated water and sulfur. Many people frequented these places because the hot water therapy soothed their aching muscles and the sulfur healed their skin problems, such as acne vulgaris, whiteheads, blackheads, eczema, rosacea, scabies, and seborrheic dermatitis. Now, sulfur's cleansing properties are packaged neatly in soap bars. The ten percent sulfur content in the soap has enough potency to effectively produce the same effective results as dipping your whole body in a pool of sulfur-rich hot water. Like in the ancient times, use sulfur soaps to reme...

How Do You Treat Scalp Acne and Scalp Dermatitis?

A case of Seborrhoeic Dermatitis on the back of the head (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) If you suffer from pimples on the scalp, then it's important to find a good scalp acne treatment. They're ugly, painful, and irritating. We can't see them ourselves so we pick them often by scratching our scalp before knowing they're there. Scalp wounds tend to bleed and this can make the spots visible, especially if your hair is thinning, fine or very short. Most acne on the scalp has the same cause as acne on the face, that is, overproduction of sebum leading to blockages of hair follicles, which often become infected. Inflammation can be caused by a condition called seborrheic dermatitis , and this, together with oily skin, is what you have to go along with scalp acne. What happens is the scalp will be red and itchy and the skin will flake off as dandruff. Associated with the condition of seborrheic dermatitis and more serious cases is yeast and it's someti...

A brief vacation

I have just got back from UP Diliman for a week of respite. I had training for trainers at UP SoLaIR (School of Labor and Industrial Relations). It was a working vacation. At least I had time to slow down and not think of work for a few days. It was good! Really felt good to be taken cared of by the University Hotel staff.
