As we age, there are many parts of the body that break down and don’t function like they used to.   Our bones get weak, our muscles start to lack the same intensity that they once had, and of course, our skin starts to deteriorate.  For our bones, we drink milk to help keep them strong and intact.  For our muscles, we can exercise or spend time at the gym to build strength.  For our skin, there is a limited amount of things that can really treat the skin on the entire body, but fortunately, for the most important part of our body, our EYES, there is an answer.  That answer lies in specialized creams called eye creams.

Eye Creams are formulated with the most advanced ingredients on the market.  Many specialized eye creams, called eye serums, use ingredients that are imported from laboratories like Sederma, in France.  These laboratories spend years in the research & development stages with these products, in order to fine tune them and come up with the best age defying product on the market.

The area of skin under the eyes is more delicate and prone to aging than any other part of the human body.  Several things happen as we age, and here is a list of just a few:

1.  Our skin starts to thin, and loses elasticity.  This is the first part of the body that does this (the skin under the eyes) and it gets extremely thin as we age.  This is due to the loss of collagen in the skin under our eyes.

2.  We develop dark circles, making us look tired and uninterested in what is going on around us.  Dark circles are caused by genetics, lack of sleep, age, and of course, stress.

3.  Sun damage starts to appear, and the threat of hyper pigmentation and rosacea is always around.  This type of thing needs to be treated constantly, and of course, the best way to treat these symptoms is with a specialized eye cream.

The best eye creams on the market today use high concentrations of key ingredients that fight each one of the above signs of aging.  For each symptom, there is an ingredient out there that does it’s best to treat the condition.  For example, Haloxyl is an ingredient that is clinically tested and proven to dramatically reduce the appearance of dark circles under the eyes.  Sun damage and other forms of aging are best cured with hyaluronic acid and antioxidants.  A well formulated eye cream should contain these ingredients, plus other marquee ingredients, in order to be among the best eye cream formulas on the market.

If you care about your appearance, and want to shave years off of your perceived age, look no further than an eye cream. Treating this area of skin, if it’s the only thing you do, is one of the best decisions you can make, and a solid start to an anti aging regimen.

As you may know, Aromatherapy is the use of volatile liquid parts of plants, which are called essential oils, for various natural treatments. It is a holistic alternative therapy that has been used since antiquity from all major civilizations and its popularity has been increasing recently.

Cellulite is the dimpling skin found especially on thighs and sometimes on tummy, back of arms and bottom which looks lumpy and ripply. While it is harmless, cellulite discomforts female population especially in summer time. Almost every woman (even the slimmest ones) has cellulite to some degree. It is believed that cellulite is not only fat, but accumulation of fat, fluids and toxins which are trapped in the skin, owing to weakening of the connective tissue.
Cellulite is caused by numerous reasons. Upon the whole, cellulite is genetically inherited from mother to daughter and related with female hormones and their changes. Cellulite is magnified during pregnancy, menstruation and estrogens therapy. Estrogen hormone plays the major part in determining intensity, formation and expansion of cellulite condition. Men’s lack of estrogen hormone, is the reason why men don not have cellulite on their body. What is more, diet poor in fibre, rich in fat and salt, smoking and inactive lifestyle contribute to cellulite aggravation.

Keep in mind that there are many things to do to reduce cellulite, but nothing can eliminate one hundred percent the “orange peel” surface of female skin at affected areas. Just to name few, increasing body exercise, decreasing fat income and sugar, drinking many cups of water, avoiding coffee and eating fruits rich in C vitamin, are suggested for combating cellulite. In this article we will present you some aromatherapy tips that can help you remove cellulite.

Essential oils can assist with anti-cellulite treatment in two major ways: Reducing body toxins, waste matter and imprisoned liquids and enhancing blood circulation. The essential oils that are used most for cellulite therapy are Juniper, Citrus, Rosemary, Lemon, Lemongrass, Grapefruit and Geranium oil. Bath and especially massage are the most effective Aromatherapy uses for a successful cellulite cure.

Add 5-10 drops of your favourite essential oil in your bath water and stay in it for at least fifteen minutes, once a week. This time allows essential oil to penetrate your skin and its diuretic and circulation boosting action to be more effective.

Aromatherapy massage is probably the most useful alternative method for treating cellulite because it is applied directly to the affected part of skin and encourage body detoxication and blood circulation. Carrier (or base) oils from various vegetables are used for essential oil dilution. Appropriate carrier oils for massage are among others, Avocado, Jojoba and Almond.

Application of Body Scrubs and Soaps Using specially formulated body scrubs and soaps is one way to deal with several skin and body conditions. Be sure to stay away from scrubs and soaps which contain harsh chemicals, acids or mineral oil (also called parafin) as these can be drying and even damaging to your skin.

Making your own scrubs and soaps is another option which doesn’t have to be complicated or difficult. I’ve included some terrific, simple recipes here for you to try. A little extra TLC and time in the bath can not only improve the look and health of your skin, it can also help to reduce stress and improve your overall health.

Body scrubs and special soaps can be used for:

1. Goosebumps

2. Blackheads

3. Skin that needs revitalizing

4. Addressing problems such as dry skin or cellulite

The process is simple and choices are available to improve the look and feel of your body’s skin.

a. Scrub down with soap and water using the bath mitt, loofah or brush.

b. Rub all over with sea salt as you stand in the bath.

c. Rub all over with sugar using your soap lather.

d. Fill a muslin bag with ground oats/bran from a health food store and scrub with that.

The use of a loofah, hemp glove, long-backed bristle brush is beneficial at all times, but is especially important is the person is on a strict diet or undertaking a fast. Under these circumstances the body is throwing off poisons rapidly, and these need to be scrubbed off the skin.

The Use of Soap

Even dermatologists are unable to reach agreement on as to whether soap is positively good or bad for the skin. The theory that it is bad is based on the fact that skin is naturally slightly acid, while soap is mostly alkaline. Hence the soap temporarily destroys the skins’ acid mantle. However, as the balance is restored in one to three hours, the damage is not permanent.

The `anti-soap` brigade claims that the drying effect of soap is cumulative; years of washing will take their toll in the form of skin that is prematurely dried or cracked. Certainly, students will feel the drying effect of soap on their skin; it is this very feeling that makes some women say that they feel `clean`, but often this means that soap has been left on the skin which has not been adequately rinsed and dried off.

You should be aware that although nowadays most soaps contain moisturizers such as cold cream to mitigate the drying effect, this does not alter their alkalinity. Most people will cause little harm to their skin by using soap. It is only those who have particularly dry or sensitive skin who should use the special acid-balanced soaps, which are not strictly soaps at all, they are more aptly called cleansers.

If you mix oils they should all total about 1/2 tsp.-not a 1/2 tsp. each. Mix all with a spoon in the jar, cover with the lid and allow to sit at least overnight. The mixture should look “oily” and moistened. If it doesn’t, add more oil.

To use: Scoop a small amount on to your hand and rub your hands and fingers gently with the scrub, not too hard. Rinse with warm water and pat dry. This leaves your hands soft, and is great after gardening!
