Birthmarks are the mysterious formation.
Doctors know the little about the nature of birthmarks, but it is well-known that their any sudden changes can be guarding attribute of carcinoma cutaneum.
Nothing is known about their exact origin. They do not have any advantage and they have no purpose.
Scientists have found out connection between quantity of birthmarks and length telomeres - trailer sites of genes which are the indicators of ageing of heart, muscles, bones and arteries of the human (when telomeres become too short, the cell ceases to share and perishes). Results of the researches are simply amazing.

Onda - Vero.profumo

July 18th, 2007 by webmaster

Let’s assume that Оnda - will never become popular among the customers. It is far from freshness, ease and complacency of popular fruit-musky and gourmandizes subjects. So, it goes against current time and current fashion.
It returns us back to olden times, when spicy and luscious aromas - from Djedi (Guerlain) and Bandit (Piguet) up to Cabochard (Gres) - dictated fashion.
It will not become popular because, that its author - perfumer Vero Kern, the inhabitant of the Swiss Zurich - absolutely not perfumery in mass perception city. If not other Swiss perfumer, Andy Tauer, who has told, that he can name him Vero Kern’s pupil, we would never get known about perfumers in this small country of cheese, chocolate and watches. And meanwhile - there are already three aromas in Andy Tauer’s fashion line and all of them are amazing.
Italian word Onda means “wave”. However, neither sea, nor saltish-damp theme is felt in this aroma. Aroma has extraordinary strong concentration - one drop will be enough for all day. And it is not popular today - to have too strong aroma. In the world of aromas there are no full equivalents and to compare aromas - a bad manner, however… There is certain similarity Onda about which we wrote earlier.
Onda remains the confidential weapon of originals. People, who do not wish to be the same as all others, it is the aroma for people, still living in the “Golden Age of perfumery”, people with their own fashion and style…

Bad habits in cosmetology (Part 2)

July 15th, 2007 by webmaster

3. To sunbathe in a sun deck
For some reason it is considered, that sunburn in a sun deck is less harmful, than solar. Actually, the same ultra-violet UVA-beams are responsible for sunburn in a sun deck all, which cosmeticians name as “beams of ageing” they cause formation of free radicals and promote skin presenilation.
As well as for natural sunburn, any abusing of artificial sunburn is harmful. Artificial sunburn does not exclude danger of change of skin pigmentation, a burn and a long-term cancer of skin. It can also provoke an inflammation of a cornea of an eye and occurrence of a cataract. Cosmeticians recommend visiting a sun deck not more than two times a year per 10 sessions each.
But how to be, if it is desirable to be “chocolate”? The modern cosmetology has created such surprising means, as self tanning means, which structure includes the substances, stimulating development of melanin in and strengthening of its pigmentation.
4. To cut off nail cuticles
Cuticles protect a root of a nail from damages and infections, being a natural barrier to bacteria, doing nails stronger. Therefore it is better not to cut cuticles (not to bring an infection), and to grease with humidifying cream or oil in order to prevent occurrence of agnail (the best oil for cuticles is an oil, containing vitamin E or an extract of a tea tree).
5. To bleach teeth very often
Too frequent bleaching of teeth spoils dental enamel therefore teeth become hypersensitive and starts to be crumbled easily. Such enamel starts to absorb dyes even more strongly. Besides, it is simply useless to bleach teeth too often - you will not manage to make teeth whiter than a maximum level, incorporated in you by the nature (it is considered, that teeth cannot be whiter, than fibers of your eyeballs).
Bleaching in stomatologic clinic can bleach teeth on 8-9 tones, bleaching in house conditions by means of special means - approximately on 4 tones, bleaching by means of tooth-pastes - on 1-2 tones. Bleaching in clinic or by means of special means should be done not more often, than two times a year. It is allowed to use bleaching tooth-pastes 3-5 times a week.

Bad habits in cosmetology (Part 1)

July 14th, 2007 by webmaster

Excesses are harmful and it is senseless to argue with it. Excesses in application of cosmetic means, and their misuse are even more harmful. In fact to get rid of consequences of these mistakes is very difficult. It is not necessary to test the beauty for durability.
You should know that it is harmful:
1. To change color of hair too often
Certainly, TV stars change color of hair almost every week. But have you ever though what money they pay in it for it and more often it is just a wig.
Discoloration up to the most blonde color especially spoils and dehydrates hair. If you wish to clarify hair only on one-two tone, it is possible to do it time in 6-8 weeks without special harm for hair. If you want more radical changes, try to be clarified on one-two tone every month, yet you will not reach a desirable shade.
Painting in dark tone is less harmful, than clarification as you simply add of paint to your hair, instead of deprive it with its own pigment. In dark colors it is possible to be painted time in 4 weeks and at use of paints without ammonia - each three weeks.
You may help hair to cope with negative consequences of painting by means of the conditioner and cosmetic masks for hair.
2. To go to bed with make-up
Even if you did not put on make-up within the day or any other hygienic cosmetic means, a lot of dirt and skin bacon has collected on the skin. They cork pores of the skin, interfering with receipt of oxygen and not allowing the skin “to breathe”. And this leads to occurrence of spots, puffiness, an earthy complexion and even inflammations. Position is even more aggravated, if you go to bed, not having washed off a make-up.
