Steps for face massage –

Take your partner’s hair off the face with a headband. Be careful not to use too much oil on the face or you’ll find it difficult to massage specific areas without slipping. Encourage your partner to close his or her eyes, so as to focus on your touch.

Begin by stroking up each side of the jawline to the forehead. Repeat 4-5 times.
Slowly stroke the forehead rhythmically with the flat of your hand from just above the brows to the hairline.
Starting at the centre hairline slide your thumbs out to the side, applying gently pressure. Move down the forehead slightly and repeat. Continue this outward stroking pressure until you reach the eyebrows.
Now place the heel of each hand on the centre forehead and slide out to the sides. Repeat three times.
Place the first two fingers of each hand on the temples and circle gently for a minute or two, applying a little pressure.

All the above movements help to relieve a headache. Try lavender oil for your massage as it can ward off a headache if used in time.

Place your thumbs on your partner’s inner eyebrows and slide out to the sides. Repeat three times.
With your index finger and thumbs gently pull along the brow bone. Repeat three times.
Stroke gently over the eyelids with your ring fingers from the inner to the outer corners. Repeat three times.
Alternately stroke down the nose with your thumbs then gently rub round the nose tip and nostrils. Be careful not to press hard on the nostrils.
Stroke the cheeks across the cheekbones and gradually work down the face to the chin.
Make little circular movements across the top lip. When you reach the corner of the mouth lift slightly then repeat.
Make pinching movements out along the jawline and up towards the ears.
Rub the earlobes between your fingers and thumbs then gently pinch all around the outer ear. Most people love this.
Sweep your hands up the neck and on to the cheeks. Hold then repeat.
Finish by stroking the forehead, getting lighter and lighter until you bring your hands off.

Note: Face massage should be done by using oil or moisturizer as a lubricant. If you just use your bare hands, you may cause too much friction and leads to irritation of the skin.

Hope you have now learned how to give a facial massage to remove wrinkles and get relief from symptoms of allergies and sinus congestion.

How to avoid The Split In Hair Straightening

noreply@blogger.com (businessopportunities) — Sun, 07 Sep 2008 08:01:00 +0000

If you want straighten your hair, please avoid using heat as possible as you can. Using some drugstore straightening products then that would definitely be kinder to your hair than a chemical relaxer or a heat tool. Harsh chemicals and heat are the hair's worst enemies.

Split ends cannot be fixed or glued back together. Splits must MUST be snipped off with professional hair scissors or very sharp sewing scissors. The key is SHARP. Get a pair and designate it only for hair

Split ends are where hair unravels at the end and frays like a rope. Hair is made of these fibers that are "wrapped" together by the cuticle (like tree bark). Once this cuticle or "tree bark" is worn down, the inside frays like mad. The farther up it frays, the more hair breaks off. and the more hair will be lost. These splits MUST be cut off, otherwise the hairs will unravel even more and/or break off more. The longer a person waits, the more hair they'll have to cut off.

Too many split ends will make hair look worn out and frizzy, compared to a person with few or no splits.

The best thing to do is prevent splits before they happen:

Avoid using hot water on the hair. Hairwash with warm or cool water and rinse cold if possible.

Condition very very well.. and don't forget a deep conditioning every now and then.

Search and destroy all the splits you can find, in order to prevent more unraveling.

Use gentle hair toys and hair grooming tools. This includes throwing out anything that eats your hair when you take it out. Spring clips, barettes, and the like. Plastic molded combs have a seam that claws at hairs like tiny razorblades (observe in between the teeth).

Most of all, minimize use of heat tools and harsh chemical treatments. This includes blow drying (blow frying), irons, relaxers/perms, dyes, etc...

Skin Care for the Mature Skin

noreply@blogger.com (businessopportunities) — Mon, 01 Sep 2008 20:48:00 +0000

As we age, our skin needs change. To keep skin looking its very best, a woman 's skin care regimen should change to address the unique needs of each decade. Understanding the changes occurring beneath the skin can help women take the appropriate steps in skin care. While there are many high-end treatments available for women looking to achieve great looking skin in their 40s, 50s, 60s and beyond, there are also many practical steps that can be taken to maintain skin as well.

Women in their 40s (and sometimes as early as their mid-30s) may begin to notice some real changes occurring to their skin. With the advancement of age, gravity, genetics and sun damage, a woman may be more aware of the effects of aging than ever before. During this time, fine lines, age spots and the loss of elasticity are earmarks of the aging process. Premenopausal changes in the body are the prime culprits to skin changes. As skin 's collagen begins to break down and cells turn over more slowly, women in their 40s may notice their skin appears duller and drier. Fine lines begin to appear around the mouth and eyes. Issues such as rosacea, blotchiness and adult acne can also set it.

Skin care for women in their 40s should incorporate the use of soap-free cleansers, which will effectively cleanse the skin without stripping moisture. Bar soaps are not recommended for use for women in their 40s as it tends to dry skin out. Now is the time to invest in topical creams infused with glycolic acid, retinol and Vitamins A and E to target aging issues. Nutrients such as these can subtly improve skin 's condition and provide toning. Antioxidants are also useful as they are not only effective for preventive health, but they also correct cell damage, which leads to an improvement in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Exfoliation is essential for women in their 40s as it can increase skin cell turnover, revealing more radiant skin. It 's important not be overly aggressive in applying a physical exfoliant. However, alpha-hydroxy or beta-hydroxy cleansers and lotions are a beneficial way to introduce exfoliation into one 's regimen.

By the 50s, a woman 's skin is considered mature. The biological and hormonal changes occurring during this time may lead to unwanted hair growth or acne. As estrogen levels drop, the natural oil production of the skin decreases as oil glands reduce in size. Skin is more fragile, making it easier to injure and slower to heal.

Women in their 50s will notice a loss of elasticity of skin around the eyes, mouth and neck. As a result, skin is lackluster in appearance and wrinkles are deeper. During her 50s, a woman should again change her approach to skin care, as her skin will be more sensitive to aggressive anti-aging products. Instead, she should use a thick daily moisturizer, as well as a moisturizing night cream. Corrective, rich-emollient eye creams are also recommended. Vitamin C is an effective ingredient in the fight against aging. It penetrates beneath the epidermal layer, building and plumping up collagen. It is also good for clearing up adult acne.

Women in their 50s should also give some thought to the makeup they use. Swap out dense foundations and powders for lighter, mineral essential-based products.

In the sixth decade, the aging process is more pronounced. The effects of gravity on the eyelids, neck and jawline are more obvious. Any damage that has occurred by this time is unlikely to be corrected by skin care products. Women often seek the assistance of cosmetic enhancements to correct advanced facial wrinkles. Moisturizers should contain soy, retinol and alpha hydroxyl acids that are beneficial for a woman 's skin. Any treatments that encourage collagen and elastin stimulation are a good bet.

Makeup for a woman in her 60s should be used to enhance mature beauty - not hide it. A woman in her 60s should choose makeup with nourishing ingredients that contain Vitamin E, aloe and other emollients help the improve the texture and health of skin.
