Best time for the peeling

November 1st, 2007 by webmaster

There are two most widespread methods of peeling - physical (based on influence of ultra-violet beams or water vapour) and chemical (which clears skin by means of active clearing substances, such as alpha-hydroxyl acid, minerals, clay).
It is worth of mentioning that chemical peeling - is an inherently mini-burn and consequently requires the special approach and care. Making a choice in favor of such method, it is necessary to trust only to the professional master and the proved means. Depth of a burn depends on concentration of acid and force of influence; in spite of the fact that many women concern to this kind of a peeling cautiously, experts recognize, that the “chemical” peeling provides deeper influence, therefore, the result keeps longer.
Cosmeticians advise to observe some important rules:
1. The best season for carrying out of a deep peeling deviates from early spring till late autumn. The skin after this procedure should be protected from the sun.
2. Peeling means render anti-cellulites effect (the skin “breathes” easier that normalizes exchange processes), therefore, the peeling can be made at all parts of the body, and not only on the face and a neck.
3. After peeling the skin requires protection, therefore, it is necessary to use cream after a peeling. Peeling, especially mechanical, should not be intensive. Do not rub the skin, do not scratch, do not mass a zone around of eyes. Having taken a warm shower put a cream with circular and gentle movements.
And the most important - good luck! Nothing improves a complexion better, than a healthy way of life and balanced diet.

From summer to autumn (Part 2)

October 26th, 2007 by webmaster

Skin dryness is shown in the form of peelings after washing. At first sight, it is paradox; however, do not hasten to do conclusions. On the one hand, secrets developed by sebaceous glands cover skin surface with impenetrable fatty film, which interferes with evaporation of a moisture. However, if the integument is dried strongly up, it simply has no moisture, ready to evaporation, therefore and grease film is not required.
To eliminate mimic wrinkles. If in the summer the skin has suffered from droughty stress, do not be surprised, even if in early age you will find fine wrinkles on the face. More often they are formed around of eyes, at more mature age - at corners of a mouth and on a forehead. Here the skin looks thin, lifeless. Mimic wrinkles often appear in those zones, where we especially often use obverse muscles for emotions expression. It is shown, for example, that we make almost 50000 movements a day; it is no wonder, that hypodermic muscles thus are strongly strained, it is difficult to relax them. Chronic stresses, and also free radicals, which are formed under action of solar beams, actively promote aggravation of mimic wrinkles. In this case an eternal question “What to do?” It is easy to resolve by means of special cosmetic means and vitamin diet.
To soften and to feed the skin. Condensed skin of the face is one more trouble, with which it is possible to collide after active summer holiday. It is considered, that under solar beams’ action the top layers of cells are dried up, become more dense and firm, and the skin becomes rough. What to do? The answer is quite easy- do not forget about peeling and masks.
To find rest and comfort. Autumn inter-season period is well-known not only the generous fruit-vegetable table, but also for the raised integument sensitivity. While consequences of solar stress have not receded, and the autumn already presents different weather surprises, the skin suffers from weather changes. You should not forget about whey, face massage and rest. Good luck.

From summer to autumn (Part 1)

October 25th, 2007 by webmaster

The summer has passed… We think of a winter wardrobe, and at the same time we reconsider our cosmetics. How to look after the skin in inter-season period and to smooth consequences of rough summer?
To “level” a shade of the skin. Rough shade of the skin is one of the most widespread problems which women face in the end of summer. Pigmentary spots - areas with raised production of a painting pigment of melanin. Active in the summer, solar beams leave especially many traces on a sensitive skin, especially at people with light and red hair, and also at women during pregnancy. In order to cope with pigmentation, it is necessary to reconsider a day time cosmetic diet, having replaced habitual gel or a cream with specialized means. Chamomile, nasturtium and a white blackberry extracts slow down pigmentation and bleach skin.
To revive. It is not a secret that solar beams (and sea water) ruthlessly dry up an integument. And, in the summer humidifying means are ineffective: under action of a heat the moisture quickly evaporates from a surface of the skin, not leaving chances for effective, deep humidifying. Inter-season period - is an excellent time for updating stocks of a moisture, in fact not so hot, at the same time there have not come yet frosts and a cold season which intensively drain an integument.
