Scientists have chosen the products for brain

March 20th, 2007 by webmaster

Recently, The Psychology Today has published the list of products, which are the source of beauty and which motivate brain’s activity. In experts’ opinion, the products, most useful to a brain and, consequently, for the beauty are the cranberry, bilberry, beet, cabbage and spinach.
1. Cranberry. It is the richest source of antioxidants - substances which resist to so-called free radicals (FR). These are the molecules of different substances, which have no electrons, therefore they everywhere aspire “to bite off” a missing electron of other molecules. In our organism it helps to ruin cells, which have been attacked by the FRs, and to get rid of different illnesses. So, FRs are considered as originators of atherosclerosis. Antioxidants connect FRs and do not allow them to spoil the vessels supplying brain with a blood.
2. Bilberry. This product contains the same antioxidants, and also the substances, which are useful to visual acuity and hearing.
3. Beet and cabbage are approximately equal under the maintenance of the substances, capable to destroy enzymes which lead to development of senile dementia. These enzymes “cut” fibers on fragments, which form colloid corpuscles, which are destroying cells of the brain.
4. Spinach. Spinach keeps a youth of nervous cells, and it also promotes cognitive activity of the brain.

To look like a movie star!

March 18th, 2007 by webmaster

If you want to look smart, it is not necessary to put huge money in appearance, to have own master on eyebrows, to visit the manicurist every day and to trust a make-up to the main visagiste of the country. All is much easier! And is cheaper …
Hair
Perhaps it is firstly a hair that gives out the status of the woman and its financial position - hair. No matter what an expensive dress is on you or whether your neck and arm are dazzling with diamonds, all this won’t save you from inevitable shame. Cleanliness and neatness of the hair, as well as, of all body is the main factor of the real lady. And it is absolutely so obligatory to rise every morning on an hour earlier in order to arrange “Babylon” on your head. Pure, brilliant, magnificent hair is a visiting card of the lady.
To make your hair shine not worse, than in TV spots of the new shampoo, you should always wash off the conditioner by cool water. It promotes active blood circulation and the hair will grow better and shine.
Make-up
There are two things on which it is impossible to save in any way: a voice-frequency cream and mascara. All other cosmetics may be bought, proceeding from own preferences and opportunities.
Rich girls always have a smooth skin. It also is the key moment in a make-up. It is not necessary to overload skin with “camouflage” means: it will be enough, if you would put a thin layer of a voice-frequency cream or powder. Use the proof-reader for hiding problem sites of the skin. The thick layer of a voice-frequency cream or powder will only aggravate a situation.
All make-up should be moderately appreciable and natural. Emphasizing only eyes or only lips is not so fashionable any more. Simply if you do accent on eyes - use lipstick of more light shades. It is not necessary to put more than two layers of ink on the top eyelashes and more than one - on bottom one. Eyelashes should be magnificent, long and tightened up. Color over each of them, holding a brush vertically - it is the secret method of the world leading visagistes. Eyelashes seem more magnificent and longer, but remain natural.
Nails
Choose nail polishes of neutral shades and your hands will always look accurate. Such shades hide all roughness and defects of the nails.
+ 5 advices:
-It is not necessary to change aroma too often. Moreover, aromas or toilet water is one more thing on which it is impossible to save.
- Having picked up an ideal make-up, only sometimes accurately change shades of the lipstick, blush or shadows.
- Don’t be “overzealous” with accessories: too much jewellery is worse, than its full absence.
- Do not forget about legs care: it is especially important in the summer in the summer in the summer in the summer.
- Choose carefully your everyday clothes. Concerning a suit the main thing is not a label, and but these are the style, material, color. Then your figure will look even more attractive.

Derring-Do - Ineke

March 17th, 2007 by webmaster

The ever growing interest in perfumery can be completely regarded as a universal curiosity feature - we aspire to try everything in perfumery shops. And the perfumery market uses it - it is predicted, that in 2007 800 new aromas will be made.
Ineke Ruhland is a young woman, who has made the dream come true. Wishing to make a career in the perfumery industry, she has moved from the weak in perfumery sense Canada to the Europe, where she has worked for 8 years, until she has realized the interest in creation of perfumery compositions. Before she became the perfumer, she has passed a full curriculum at perfumery university ISIPCA in Versailles, and she has worked as the assistant to the perfumer. And, at last, Ineke has chosen a place where she would like to create aromas - her own studio in San Francisco.
“After My Own Heart”, “Balmy Days and Sundays”, “Chemical Bonding” - are the most popular aromas from Ineke’s fashion line. Ineke creates an alphabetic collection of aromas, and it is logical, that the fourth aroma is named on letter D - “Derring-Do”, that means “desperate”, “bravery”, “recklessness”. It is natural, that it is man’s aroma. It is aroma of the nowadays knight.
Ineke is an expert in design - packing of aromas is magnificent. It is modern, attenuatous and graceful. Even the samples packed into a pearly-grey fabric, look as a carefully chosen gift!
The aroma belongs to the Aquatic Aromatic group - aromatic grasses and fresh water. And after Cool Water (Davidoff) and its numerous facilitated versions and clones, this aroma can satisfy only the admirers of this “fresh” genre. This aroma is a symbol of men’s romantic and it keeps on the skin for a long period of time, and it has a decent “loop” - there is nothing to be carped with formal attributes.

Physical exercises improve work of a brain

March 15th, 2007 by webmaster

Physical exercises raise working capacity of the brain and stimulate formation of new neurones in brain’s parts in which age changes are connected with age decrease in memory. Such conclusions have been recently represented by the American scientists after they have compared the results of experiments with mice and data of researches with volunteers’ participation.
During the experiments with mice employees of the Colombian University estimated the intensity of a blood-groove in a brain of rodents by means of a magnetic-resonant tomography, and they have also studied cellular structure of the certain departments of a brain of animals.
The results of the experiments have shown that the appreciable increase in a blood-groove observed in mice’s hippocampus, exposed to the raised physical activities.
At the second investigation phase the scientists have involved 11 volunteers into the experiments. The volunteers were offered to pass a 3-month’s course of trainings at the sports club. In view of not having an opportunity of to lead the analysis of fabrics of a brain of participants, the researchers leaned on results of magnetic-resonant tomography.
The data of the experiments, carried out before and after a rate of trainings, have shown substantial growth of a blood-groove in a gear crinkle of the hippocampus - a part of the brain in which functions of memory are concentrated. The gradual decrease in memory, which occurred at the majority of people after 30 years, is accepted to be connected with age reduction of number of nervous cells in a gear crinkle. As the researchers mark, the increase in volume of a blood-groove was in direct ratio to achievements in sport of participants of experiment.

SPA-wrapping

March 14th, 2007 by webmaster

SPA is a fashionable cosmetic procedure. There are a lot of different SPA-procedures, which are distinguished, by the prices, and as a matter of fact, that is quite explainable. SPA-procedures on cosmetic wrapping are the most popular and simultaneously are the most expensive procedure among SPA services. SPA-wrapping helps people to grow thin (the so-called “SPA for growing thin”), to look better and, as a whole, can to cheer up. Besides, wrapping is very effective in struggle against cellulites (anti-cellulites SPA-procedures) or against arthritis.
What is wrapping?
For answering this question, it is better to tell about the process, than to find capacious definition. So, any professional wrapping starts with deep clarification of the skin. Easy massage with scrub prepares our skin for the best assimilation of useful substances. After clarification many experts recommend to accept a hydro massage bathroom with seaweed (or as them still name, algal baths) or sea salt.
After the preparatory stage is ended, it is high time to pass directly to the wrapping. All body or its separate parts are covered with a wrapping mix (often - by means of paraffin; paraffin-wrapping) by disposable bed sheet. Then you are covered with thermal blanket in which the necessary temperature depending on type of warping (cold or hot wrapping) is established. This procedure can last from 30 till 40 minutes.
Hot wrapping is usually done for all body, and the optimum temperature thus considers 38 degrees of Celsius. Cold wrapping is, on the contrary, done on separate parts of the body. Besides there is one more type of wrapping (according to “thermal” criterion), which refers to contrast wrapping. Contrast wrapping is recommended for those people who wish to get rid of a cellulites or adiposity. During contrast wrapping (after the hot wrapping of the same part of the body) a special algal mask, which possesses cooling effect, is being made.

How to cope with baldness

March 13th, 2007 by webmaster

The experts name harmful hair dresses and bad feeding as the main reasons of baldness.
If to start taking care of your hair regularly, instead of doing this from time to time, it is possible to improve it considerably. There are a lot of simple ways of cosmetic hair care. For example, this can be massage. Strengthening blood circulation around of follicles, we improve their feed.
Here the recipe of dry (everyday) massage. Bend above a bath; vigorously pound a head with a dry warm terry towel. The effect can be strengthened by oil circular grindings. We would recommend you to use olive oil for these procedures. Alternate oil to onion, garlic and lemon juices- their active biological components will help with a lot of “hair” problems. Wrap up a head by the warm towel and wash your hair not earlier, than in half an hour.
By the way, the formula “two in one” is not for you. Hair, requiring treatment, demand use of balms and conditioners separately from shampoo. Water should be not too hot, washing - fast and drying - natural, without a hair drier.
Be not lazy to comb hair for a long time - skin fat in regular intervals is distributed on a surface of hair on all length, and this means elasticity and healthy shine. By the way, if you want your hair to shine, pass it through wooden jaggies of natural silk rag. Honey, salt, beer, whey, broth of bran - all these simple improvised means are not less effective then any other “natural” hair care cosmetics.
It is possible to make hair magnificent even without any special shifts, it is necessary to “feed” it with sulfur: our hair consists of keratin on 97 percent, the substance containing sulfur. It gives shine and a health to the hair, and the skin of the head becomes more elastic and viable. You may find sulfur in vegetable marrows, onions, apricots, cabbage, potato and raspberry.

How the ideals of female beauty changed

March 10th, 2007 by webmaster

Different epochs dictated different standards of female beauty. How they did they eventually vary?
Antique times brought the first cult of beauty. A concept of ideal beauty was in harmoniously combined body, smooth lines of the breast, the expressed waist and wide hips. Sculptors of that time modeled only such figures. For example, the proportions of the well-known Venus are 86-69-93 at 164 cm. growth.
In X-XII a century Europe the new ideal of beauty was generated. Troubadours glorified fragile, pale ladies, defenseless and helpless on a kind. Everything, beginning from high growth and finishing a high forehead, came into fashion. Ladies shaved off a part of the hair framed the face in order to open their forehead. To make the neck seem longer and thin, the nape was shaved. Thin hands, long fingers and long legs were appreciated.
The only paradoxical thing was the fact that the standard of beauty meant noticeable, big stomach. Those ladies, whom the nature has awarded with a flat stomach, have also found a way out. They put the special platen simulating the increased stomach under the dress.
In the Medieval Europe reined the rigid orders established by Catholic Church. The physical beauty was considered sinful. Therefore women put on the dresses, almost completely hiding a figure.
But even during those uneasy times there was a standard of beauty. It was a harmonious woman, neither thin, nor plum. Diminutiveness was highly appreciated. Everything should be small - growth, hands, foot, breast.
After strict times the era of the Revival time has come. Magnificent bodies have started to be appreciated. Plum hands, wide hips and magnificent breast were considered as special advantages. Smooth bends of a body were emphasized as much as possible - by means of special breed of a dress, deep décolleté and short sleeves.
In the end of XVI century in Italy style of a baroque which in XVII century has grasped practically all Europe has appeared. The fashion included luxury, pretentiousness and airs and graces. Time of so-called doll beauty has come.
Women should remind fragile figurines. The standard of appeal meant the unreal thin waist, small head on a long “swan” neck, sloping shoulders and a small breast.
Some ladies starved themselves because of constant under eating.
Finally the XX century has come - it is time of emancipation. Women began to go in for sports and give a maximum of attention to the physical activity. There was an absolutely other standard of female beauty - the sunburn, well developed muscular system, self-confidence and self-sufficiency.
