Basic Skin Care Tips Everybody Must Follow

I have been writing a lot about some tips in taking care of our skin but I was not able to blog about the basic and most essential. That is the reason I came up with these basic skin care tips everyone must follow! This is before all the supplements and facial products so before buying anything for your skin, make sure to follow these simple steps.

PROTECT YOUR SKIN FROM DIRECT SUNLIGHT

Sunlight in the morning is healthy and a very good source of vitamin-e that is much needed by our skin but direct sunlight from 9 AM until 3 PM can cause skin irritation or worst, skin cancer.

So in order to fight back from the sun's harmful UV rays, make sure you always sunscreen with an SF of at least 15. Apply sunscreen on to your skin generously and do not forget to re-apply every after 2 hours of direct exposure to sunlight.

How To Condition Dry and Thick Hair With Shampoos?

Have you ever thought about the precise method of conditioning the hair to make them shiny and glossy with the use of genuine products? It’s a fact that people across the globe have different hair textures, and that includes thin, thick, curly, sleek, frizzy hair. So, today I’ m going to talk about the relevance and proper conditioning of dry and thick hair with the use of shampoo. Yes, you have got it right as you can condition your hair with shampoo. It becomes all the more important when you have a pixie hair cut, and you have thick dry hair that needs appropriate conditioning. Then, all you need to recognize is that whatever your hair type is, you need to condition the hair to hydrate the follicles and make your hair super soft and shiny.

HOW TO CONDITION DRY AND THICK HAIR WITH SHAMPOOS?

It is certainly a fact that dry hair needs adequate moisturization through conditioning as the dry hair lack shine, and there is a need of moisturizing shampoo that provides required shine to hair. On the other hand, thicker hair is also dry and need the adequate moisturization with perfect conditioning with shampoos. So, there is a need of shampoo for dry and thick hair that not only clears off all the dirt and oil and conditions them appropriately.

Coffee + Skin: Caffeine for a Healthier Skin

I must say that this is something new to me. I never thought that caffeine can actually gives us the chance to achieve that healthier skin we have been dreaming of. Coffee, a universal breakfast drink that wakes up our senses everyday can also nourish our skin, decrease the chance of having skin cancers and shockingly promotes hair growth in men.

In today's beauty industry, Caffeine is now being used in formulas for body creams, hair serum and other cosmetic products that you can find in the market. Caffeine in skincare products is not really a good combination because it is very hard to penetrate in the skin but kudos to our advanced technology in making things easier for us.

Surprisingly, drinking 4-6 coffees daily decreases that chance of getting certain skin cancers and that was proven by a clinical study of white American women.

Daily coffee consumption and prevalence of nonmelanoma skin cancer in Caucasian women.
The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between daily coffee consumption and nonmelanoma skin cancer. This study was a cross-sectional analysis of women enrolled in the Women's Health Initiative Observational Study (n=93 676). As nearly all cases of self-reported nonmelanoma skin cancer occurred among Caucasian women (97.8%), we focused our analyses on this group. Compared with nondrinkers, women drinking only caffeinated coffee on a daily basis had a 10.8% lower prevalence of nonmelanoma skin cancer. Consumption of six or more cups of caffeinated coffee per day was associated with a 36% reduction in nonmelanoma skin cancer. After adjusting for various demographic and life style variables, daily consumption of six or more cups was associated with a 30% reduced prevalence of nonmelanoma skin cancer. In contrast to caffeinated coffee, daily consumption of decaffeinated coffee was not associated with a significant change in self-reported nonmelanoma skin cancer for Caucasian women. Daily caffeinated coffee consumption was associated with a dose-related decreased prevalence of nonmelanoma skin cancer in Caucasian women. via

So I think, it is already a myth about coffee sucking out all the collagen in our skin making it super dry and unhealthy.

For all coffee drinkers out there, what can you say about this?

Long Hair Don't Care

Maintaining long and healthy hair can be a huge task especially if you work full-time and have no time to spare. I know a lot of girls who try their hardest to pull of the long hair look (down below their hips) but end up cutting it to a medium length or worst cutting it really short because it is easier to maintain.

3 of the Best Vitamin-E for that Glowing & Healthy Skin

If you think you did everything to maintain a healthy & glowing skin, but it is not enough, you may want to consider the things you put in your body. Maybe you are missing a very important part of your diet which is Vitamin-E. 

Vitamin-E a very vital for our body as it slows down aging in a natural way. It can be found in certain food like oils, nuts, poultry, eggs, fruits and wheat germ oil. If you don't eat food with vitamin-e component, then I highly suggest taking in supplements that can give you enough source for it. source
