How Skin Care Machines Can Help You Achieve Flawless Skin  

Saturday, February 21, 2009


The cosmetics landscape has grown far and wide. There is a
seemingly endless supply to different anti-aging products being
offered. Cosmetic companies churn out anti-aging products on a
regular basis, all targeted at rejuvenating our aging facial
skin. But amongst this mighty cohort of anti-aging products, one
product aims to supplant the all might anti-aging cream.
Technology has evolved to the point where we have skin care
machines that can help you achieve flawless skin.

Nowadays there are machines that offer alternatives to surgery.
These machines use lights or wavelengths to correct any
imperfections of the facial skin. These facial machines were
designed for people that desire skin correction but are not
willing to undergo invasive surgery. Light treatment-based
facial machines have made cosmetic care more accessible to those
reluctant to go under the knife.

The radio frequency technology mixes light with wavelengths to
cure some facial imperfections such as pigmentation and other
coloration problems that often occur with aging. Facial machines
are not readily available in every skin care clinic but they are
far from rare. You should have little trouble finding a clinic
that has one. It is best to let a skin care professional to use
a facial machine on you to get the best results.

Even though these machines should be used by professionals,
there are many sites on the Internet that offer such products
for the general public. When you are using a new skin care
product, particularly a machine, it is always advised that you
talk to a skin care professional beforehand. A professional will
be able to tell you how good they think the product is and if
they believe that it is safe for you to use. In the long run a
professional's assessment can prove vital.

Before you decide to go out and by yourself a facial machine,
there are some things that you need to consider. You may think
that this sounds like the perfect skin care treatment for you
but you need to know what you are really getting yourself into.
If the machine is used correctly you will see great results and
better skin. In fact, some notice great results in the first
couple of days.

However, such machines will yield varying results and consumer
experience will differ from person to person. Some people may
see results in a few days and some may see results in a week but
some may see no results at all. However, when using consumer
grade facial machines, you run the risk of making your facial
problems worse. Fortunately, most consumers usually achieve
positive results.

With the continuing advances in cosmetic technology, consumers
are now offered more choices when dealing with cosmetic
corrections. Consumers are seldom left with a one choice
ultimatum. Before you decide that the facial machine treatment
is right for you, you will want to do you own research and
possibly talk to a skin care professional about the possible
risks of using such techniques.

Making Your Own Skin Care Products  

The first step to make your own skin care products might be
said to clean up your kitchen sink spic and spam, this is only
meant as a joke although it could be said that not long ago
chemists involved in the production of cosmetics had not much
more than what we call an old kitchen sink. Luckily we have
progressed from there onwards. However in spite of all our
modern technology, and clean sterile rooms in the end it's
really not much different. If you care to invest the time and
are interested you can make your own skin care products.

Here are the basics. In a lot of ways it's all the same – all
the back to Roman times. On the other hand with modern
technology advanced skin care products and ingredients
definitely have become more sophisticated, specialized and
precise. All a lot more difficult.

First on board you need an emulsion component. For an emulsion
all you basically need is those three ingredients: (1) Water.
(2) Oil. (3) Emulsifier. To be sure that your product has no
bacteria or other growth forms – distilled water is recommended
as the basic water liquid component.

Another type of skin care products are those products that can
be said not be of an emulsion nature .These non emulsion type
skin care products are based on oil only. Those are very simple
to make, all you need is grease and oil of different consistency
and you mixes them to arrive at your favorite consistency. The
better known is Petrolatum, Lanolin and cholesterol sold under
the trade name Eucerin. The composition is not exactly but very
close to 70% Petrolatum, 20% Lanolin and 5% Cholesterol. The
reason cholesterol is use in that formulation is to reduce the
quantity of Lanolin. The benefit of lanolin on your skin is the
cholesterol but pure Lanolin at the time this formulation vas
developed, (a century ago) Lanolin was smelly but the
cholesterol when extracted from it was not, but Cholesterol was
more expensive. I think you get my point. Cost is the number one
concern of the skin care industry. They have to pay for
expensive ads!

Now back to making I and cooking of your home made skin care
products. Where do you start and when do you start to "cook" or
"bake" the ingredients? : First you weight all your ingredients,
put them all in a container and slowly heat them to
approximately 75 degree Celsius (equivalent to 175 degrees
Fahrenheit) and keep turning it. A spoon will do the trick just
fine! After everything is melted let your concoction cool.
However pay attention to turning your production. Keep tuning it
until it solidifies… ET voila! You have made your first face
cream.

Now the fun and creativity starts. You can change the oil base
to whatever you choose or prefer.

Whether it is for personal preference along, color, consistency
of the end product or for your health concerns – it's all your
choice. What fun and creativity to be able to do this. The full
range of choices is yours. Now you can change the petrolatum
which is really bad for your skin by Cocoa butter, Lanolin for
Avocado or Olive oil until you gets the consistency you want.
You can experiment with any kind of product as long as they are
all fat. One solid one liquid two solids five liquids whatever
suit your fancy.

Now the more complex products: Emulsions. As I said before
there is three mandatory ingredients Water, Oil there literally
thousands of ingredients, again Avocado, Almond, Cocoa Butter,
Shea butter, Olive oil, Lard, ( lol) it as been done, after all
what is Mink oil? Mink oil is oil extracted from mink cadaver
after the removal of their fur. they cook them up and skim the
oil from the top. Same as Emus Oil, Pig oil is called Lard. I
think I could cook with lard. My mother did it, but I will not
try Mink fat! No way José! Anyway try to stay away from animal
and mineral oil by products. The third ingredient is the
emulsifier is absolutely needed to bind oil and water.

People who learn to cook often find or are taught know that egg
yolk itself is a good emulsifier, it will bind water to oil in
sauces, but are not a very good choice for Skin Care. However
egg yolk is not a good or wise choice to skin care. There are
much better choices of products and ingredients available.

A better choice is Wax. You can purchase emulsifying wax and
use between 6% to12 percent of it, or use the two or three
component usually found in it: Stearic acid, 60% 40% Cetearyl
Alcohol use 6% to 10% of that mixture in the oil phase. Yes, you
have at least 2 phases: the oil phase where all the fatty
ingredients in a container where they will be heated to
approximately 75 degrees Celsius and the water phase where the
entire water soluble ingredient will be heated at the same
temperature. The water phase is where you put all your Vegetable
extract, Plants, Flowers extracts etc. Be careful extracts are
usually dark green yellowish brown and they will very fast color
your cream. Also they might be heat sensitive and cannot be
heated, in this case you will have to wait until the whole thing
cool down before you can introduce them in your formula. Ok I
went ahead of myself, let me back track. Now you have your Water
and Oil phase ready you heat them both to 75 degrees Celsius and
you mix them together and turn them continuously until the whole
thing cool down to 40 Celsius. And now is the time to ad your
heat sensitive product. At this point you can also ad your
preservatives and stabilized your formulation with 0.5 to 1% of
Triethanolamine, (TEA) it make the cream smoother.

If you like to cook you will love to make your own Skin Care
product. If you run in to any difficulties post a message on my
Blog. Enjoy.

With all those very expensive skin care products these days we
seem to forget that taking care of your skin does not need to be
as expensive as the advertiser make you belief. When you are

Patting your skin

If you already have irritations in your face, you need to wash
your face with a good natural product and after the washing you
need to pat your skin carefully dry. Do not under any

A Face Lift Cream Will Work It's Magic For You  

As a woman ages she may begin to seriously consider having a
surgical procedure to help stop nature's effects. For some women
this means having a face lift which involves a good deal of pain
and recovery time. One alternative that is becoming increasingly
popular is a face lift cream. Although it certainly can't offer
the same dramatic results as a surgical lift, it can refresh a
woman's look.

There are many different skin care concerns that affect women
at the various stages of their lives. For young women they are
often battling oily skin and the related struggles with acne. As
a woman enters her thirties she begins to worry about small
wrinkles around her mouth and eyes. When retirement approaches,
it's time to start thinking about how the skin is beginning to
lose its elasticity. This is when a face lift cream can work its
magic.

Going to the cosmetics counter to buy a jar of this beauty
remedy can be a bit confusing. More and more companies are
introducing their own version of the face lift cream. In an
effort to get your business almost all will claim that they
offer the best face lift cream. It can be incredibly hard for
the average woman to decide which product to purchase.

A good approach is to inquire about free samples. This may seem
a tad bit embarrassing since it could be likened to asking for
hand-outs. It's not. Consider that many of the companies that do
offer a face lift cream understand the hesitation women feel
when it comes to investing their money in a new beauty product.
They have developed small samples of their face lift cream that
a woman can take home and use for a few days to see how her skin
reacts to it.

It's a wise idea to only use one of these samples at a time.
You want to feel the full effects of the face lift cream and
also have a chance to see how your skin will react to it. Some
women who have extremely sensitive skin will tend to break out
when they try a new product. Although a face lift cream is
usually composed of ingredients designed for all skin types,
this can still occur.

In addition to watching for any skin irritations, you'll be
very curious about how well your face looks. The measure of
success with any face lift cream is how much tighter your skin
appears. After using a sample for a few days you can gauge the
effectiveness of the face lift cream and decide if buying an
entire bottle is worth the cost.

Secrets: Beauty Is But Skin Deep  

Ancient Chinese proverbs have taught us that beauty is only
skin deep. By delving deeper into the soul of a person, you
will learn if they are really beautiful.

In the movie "The Truth about Cats and Dogs", Ben Chaplin's
character said: "You know how someone's appearance can change
the longer you know them? How a really attractive person, if
you don't like them, can become more and more ugly; whereas
someone you might not have even have noticed... that you
wouldn't look at more than once, if you love them, can become
the most beautiful thing you've ever seen?"

This is true because real beauty glows from within and is a
matter of perception. You do not need to spend a great amount
of money for beauty products or artificial procedures to make
you look good: it all comes from within.

An example is: you undergo liposuction to remove or reduce the
fat in your "tummy" but after that is done you find another
flaw that you want to correct, etc.

It is a vicious cycle where you are not, nor will you ever be
content with your appearance because of low self esteem.

On the other hand, if you completely accept who you are and
know how to emit your good points, then your satisfaction will
reflect on the outside, creating a positive and vital aura.

Here are some tips on how you can maintain your beauty from
within and not merely settle for skin-deep beauty.

1. Stay happy!

This is the number one rule for looking and feeling beautiful.


If you have a myriad of problems and you think that you carry
the world on your shoulders, it will reflect on your
appearance. There will be "circles" under your eyes from lack
of sleep, and you will look harassed and distressed.

By staying happy and feeling young, you will exude an air of
confidence and contentment that will make your skin glow. Since
the 1950s, we have been concerned about major areas of body
alteration and enhancement. Find out more about fat workouts
that keeps you in good, healthy shape.

2. Be healthy.

If you have a desk job and are tied to a desk for eight hours a
day, you need to participate in extracurricular activities and
spend some time outdoors under the sun.

Engage in a physical sport with your friends to burn calories.
Giving yourself a break will help boost your spirits Eat
healthy to avoid illness.

3. Have a positive outlook in life.

Negative vibes are never good for anyone. Having a positive
outlook on life, no matter what problems may occur, is a sure
way to achieve happiness and stay beautiful. Looking great
means feeling great! So, check out the secrets on how you can
look and feel absolutely great at

Fwd: A True Story and Healthy Skin  

If your goals include achieving optimal health, a more youthful
appearance and a better quality of life, wouldn't it be great to
know some of the best skincare solutions that can reclaim your
smooth, fresh, youthful complexion and have you waking up every
morning looking your best?

Here's a true story. On a recent visit to my hometown in
Lithuania, I was reminded by my half sister about a woman we
used to know who one day went to her old family doctor
complaining of a stomachache. After she described her symptoms,
the old doctor peered over his glasses and simply said: "Go see
an eye doctor". The woman was stunned. "But, doctor," she said,
"I have a stomachache. There's nothing wrong with my eyes." The
doctor was adamant. "I am telling you," he said. "Go and see
optician." When the woman asked why, the doctor replied: "You
have to see an eye doctor in order to see better what you are
eating!"

His advice is a good lesson for all of us. If we all looked
really closely at the food we are eating every day and thought
seriously about what we're putting into our systems, there would
be far less sick people in the world. And we all would have
healthy and glowing skins.

Non-invasive anti-aging treatments have become very popular
these days. But skin care treatments do not require any surgical
procedures. All we have to do is find better ways of managing
our daily lives. The most natural and recommended way is to eat
a well balanced diet combined with exercising and relaxation
techniques, all of which will go a long way toward avoiding
stress and are far more effective and far less expensive than
opting for a surgical remedy or getting Botox injections.

Botox injections, for example, cost approximately $400 each,
can take up to three weeks before any results are seen and must
be repeated every four to six months. In some women, however,
these procedures can cause severe and unforeseen scarring and
freezing of the facial tissue. Natural face care, on the other
hand, will leave your skin healthy, rejuvenated, refreshed and
beautiful without the pain and suffering.

Do a little research and choose what is suitable for your
particular skin. If a therapist does little more than try to
sell you the most expensive anti-aging skin treatment without
giving you any other options, you should seriously think about
going somewhere else for advice. While learning more about the
ingredients is the most important thing you can do when
considering anti-aging treatments, always keep in mind that
natural ingredients do not irritate the skin or have any
negative side effects.

I'm not against the concept of anti-aging. We all want to stay
active and healthy well into the later years of our lives. But
to do that, we have to adopt a healthy lifestyle, and beautiful
looking skin requires an on-going commitment to daily skin care.
You can stay healthy and beautiful with antioxidants and protect
your body by eating fruits and vegetables. With a healthy
lifestyle and periodic maintenance, youth and beauty can be
sustained for a long time.

I've personally spent many years looking for solutions to stay
as young and beautiful as I can, and because I have adopted a
healthy lifestyle, I actually stopped wearing foundation now
that my skin is so smooth and lovely. I also discovered some
skincare secrets that plastic surgeons will never tell you.

Cosmetics Industry Overview  

Thursday, February 19, 2009

Cosmetics have been around in one shape or form for many years,
the earliest documented use of cosmetics is around 4000BC way
back in ancient Egypt days where eye decoration and scents
became common place. From then to now, very little has changed
in the use of cosmetics, they are still used to contour and
highlight the skin and features and to mask any body odour,
although odour issues are not as big an issue now as it was back
in those days.

The word "Cosmetics" is a rather broad term targeted towards
many market sectors, its dictionary definition is;

A powder, lotion, lipstick, rouge, or other preparation for
beautifying the face, skin, hair, nails, etc.
Cosmetics, superficial measures to make something appear
better, more attractive, or more impressive:

A sub category of "Cosmetics" is "Makeup" this encompasses most
modern day beauty products and is targeted to Facial cosmetics
such as Eye Shadow, Lipstick, Mascara etc.

Today's Cosmetic market place is a huge global economy worth
approximately $40 billion, mostly generated in the western
countries but it is ever expanding into other global markets and
these expand. One of the best known and oldest cosmetic
providers is L'Oreal. L'Oreal first started in 1909 specializing
in hair colouring products in France, this grew rather rapidly
and eventually caught the eye of some now established cosmetics
companies in the USA. The year 1910 was when the likes of Max
Factor, Elizabeth Arden and Helena Rubinstein began their global
domination of this now lucrative market. These companies were
not joined by any others till Revlon joined in shortly before
WWII and Estee Lauder just after WWII.

The cosmetics industry has developed rather rapidly since these
early days of limited products as the quest for beauty has
become ever more important. Brands are now represented by key
celebrities around the world in a bid to increase the market
share of this $40 billion industry. The modern Cosmetics range
includes: Skincare, Lotions, Powders, Perfumes, Lip Colour, Nail
polishes, Eye Makeup, Face Makeup, Hair Colour, Hair Care, Baby
products, Bath Products, Party Makeup, Special FX makeup. As
with any growing industry using chemicals, the Cosmetics
industry has been in resistance with Governing bodies from the
word go as it brought into question the chemicals in use with
these products. Most countries now have a governing body
controlling the quality of allowable ingredients used within
cosmetic products; the USA has the FDA (Food & Drug
Administration). The FDA is a government Department of Health
and Human Services and is responsible for the safety regulation
of many things including Cosmetics. Because of the involvement
of this regulation it has forced many companies to look at the
ingredients used and eliminate some of the synthetic
ingredients, thus the trend of the new "Good for you" makeup.

Many products now available boast not only a visible benefit to
the skin but a nutritional one also. In terms of development
cosmetics could be viewed as take a step back in the history
timeline to ancient Egypt times. For years synthetic ingredients
have replaced natural ones due to their ease to work with and
the visible results. With that in mind these governing
organizations have benefited the consumer, giving them better
products using Natural or Organic materials. Natural products
contain mineral and plant ingredients and organic products are
made with organic agricultural products. So when on the next
makeup shopping spree bear a thought for what is on sale and
weight up the price verses the benefits, as Natural Mineral
makeup may have more of an impact on the wallet, but will come
with the added benefit in protecting and nourishing the skin.
