As we age, our skin becomes more and more prone to dryness and sagging. A lot of reasons for this exist, but the most common causes include the natural loss of collagen, which promotes elasticity and firmness of the skin; the reduction of moisture, which promotes cellular hydration; greater damage to cellular membranes because of free radicals; the inevitable slowing down of skin renewal; and excessive exposure to the sun's ultraviolet rays. These factors definitely hasten the appearance of wrinkles for men and women in their thirties. The good news is that you can take preventive measures, such as keeping your skin hydrated using an effective moisturizing beauty product.

Realize that each time you're out in the sunlight or you expose yourself to harsh elements outdoors, your body loses a lot of moisture. This increases your risk of wrinkle formation. When you stay outdoors for quite some time, don't forget to apply a generous amount of sunscreen lotion with at least SPF 15 grade protection and all-natural moisturizers. Sunscreen lotions help prevent premature signs of aging.

It is very crucial that you make use of natural moisturizers, which do not rely on preservatives and artificial boosters that can cause cellular damage to your skin. Choose moisturizers that contain all-natural ingredients, such as emu oil that is easily absorbed by the skin and remains there for a longer period. Emu oil has cosmetic properties that mirror the effects of mineral oil on skin. It's also effective in healing an inflamed area of skin, such as when a bad case of acne vulgaris breaks out or when eczema or dandruff develops.

An additional important component is Linden blossoms, which according to studies, is a powerful anti-wrinkle ingredient. They reduce the appearance of scars, liver spots, and acne as well as revitalize dull or dry skin. Additionally, the flowers of the Linden tree smell great. They're also used to brew organic tea, which has many health benefits, including lowering one's blood pressure.

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.
