Skincare for beautiful hands

Our hands are the most visible part of our bodies and the ultimate accessory. Hands take a lot of abuse in everyday activities and are constantly exposed to hot and cold climates. Hands are often roughly treated while washing clothes, dishes, scrubbing floors and working in the garden. We often have a tendency to neglect our hands, and do not take proper care to keep them looking young and groomed.

There are a few easy steps you can follow for keeping your hands soft and beautiful. Consider the following tips:

  1. Keep hands warm in cold weather with warm gloves. Cold weather can severely dry out hands and make wrinkles look much worse.
  2. Remember to moisturize your hands frequently using a good rich hand cream.
  3. Avoid nail varnish removers containing Acetone, as these will dry out your nails.
  4. Use a wooden or metal cuticle pusher after a shower to keep your cuticles looking neat. Cuticles function as barriers against bacteria and fungus, but they can often overgrow. Gently push the cuticles back, never cut your cuticles as it can result in hangnails which can be very painful.
  5. Give nails breathing room. Experts suggest you take a one-week break from polish every month.
  6. Exfoliate your hands once a week by using a solution of sea salt mixed with lemon juice. Brush the paste into your hands with an old toothbrush to remove any dead skin cells.
  7. Sun exposure damages skin so use sunscreen lotion on hands before venturing outside.
  8. Lemon juice is a great treatment to lighten age spots. Dab some lemon juice on a cotton wool and rub unto hands.
  9. For silky smooth hands apply petroleum jelly to hands and cover with cotton gloves while you sleep.
  10. Improve circulation and loosen your finger joints with some hand exercise. Clench your fists tightly for a second and them throw them open so that your fingers are spread as wide as possible. Steadily repeat this 10 times.

 

Doing your own nails is economical and practical, but a professional manicure every two or three months welcomes a bit of pampering. Professional beauty therapists can deal with tough problems like flaking cuticles and calluses better than you can at home.

Hand and feet care regimes are two of the most popular treatment services carried out by beauticians today. The purpose of the manicure and pedicure is to improve the appearance and condition of hands and feet. Once considered a luxury treatment for only the few, today those services are used by many. Special treatments such as a warm oil bath, paraffin wax treatments and herbal therapies can keep your hands soft and supple forever. Having a professional manicure and pedicure on a regular basis is highly recommended and will have your nails and hand looking beautiful!

Help answer the question about Beauty

What would you choose between the beauty of innocence and the innocence of beauty?
Again…..what would you choose between the beauty of innocence and the innocence of beauty?
Someone mighty say beauty is evidently displayed but innocence is hidden, others would prefer both, but suppose you accept the dilemma between the two what would you choose.
As a lady what would you like people to esteem you for, between your beauty , if any, and the innocence in you if any?

    Innocence is sort of a purity of heart. Beauty in its truest sense also comes from the heart. It would be hard to have one without the other.

    Beauty is definitely in the eye of the beholder. Each person on this earth has their own mind that is made up of totally different experiences and beauty beliefs, most coming from culture. It’s really hard to get everyones real opinion unless you literally took everyone on the earth sat them down and asked them the question.

    EXAMPLES:
    •A Barbie doll figure is the average North American standard of beauty, but if you ask someone of South American, Caribbean or African decent they’d say that a more full figured woman is beautiful.

    •I think Angelina Jolie is absolutely the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in my life, but by boyfriend thinks she is just ok.

    Even with-in the same culture you will find different levels of beauty opinions. That’s why you should always strive to be the best you that you can be and that’s only if you want to. Everyone else’s opinions’ are just that…opinions…they don’t matter unless you allow them to matter.

    All in all, peoples’ opinions don’t matter. Beauty is in your eye and you create it for your world. That’s a lot more fun than waiting to be defined by others.

    You and me are totally examples of "beaut is in the eye of the beholder", you think Giselle is beautiful but I found her to be unattractive. I think Gemma Ward is the most beautiful. But obviously because beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

    dry/damaged hair: mayonnaise or extra virgin olive oil on hair that is dry for hours.
    dandruff: apple cider vinegar (makes shiny, too), fifteen minutes every month
    combination skin (pimples/blackheads/etc. etc.): avocado or extra virgin olive oil for dry skin, and every week i wash with honey and brown sugar scrub
    chapped lips: regularly use burt's bees peppermint oil lip balm, natural: extra virgin oil olive on bottom lip and then rub lips together to get even coating
    dry skin: bathe with a swish of olive oil

    I cannot imagine how one could study this area of technical skill online.
    This kind of work involves learning how to do things with your hands, understanding the tools, learning how the products work and feel when applied.
    The only way I can see to learn this is to actually handle the stuff. Yes, there will be some theory/knowledge you could study on line. But after that, you'll have to apprentice.

    I agree with you RepoBaxil!! Looks are not everything…..attitude is. You can be the most gorgeous woman in the world on the outside, but if you do not genuine, if you are arrogant and shallow, then you are not really beautiful.

  16. toocaran says:

    Looks don’t matter one bit. We’ll all be rotting away in our grave some day, all looking the same

    OK some beauty tips:
    MAKEUP

    never wear lip liner a shade/shades darker than your lipstick

    under 30-shouldn't be wearing lip liner anyway

    wiggle the brush as you apply mascara

    when applying lipstick to avoid tooth stains stick your index finger in your mouth and pull out

    white eyeliner on the waterline=big eyes

    the perfect shade of lipstick is on the inside of your bottom lip

    concealer, than foundation to set it

    stick concealer for eyes

    bronze can make your face look thinner etc if you do it right

    penciled eyebrows- UC no offense if you have them-it depends

    FACE AND SKIN, ZITS/PIMPLES

    puffy under/eyes? submerge 2 teaspoons in ice water for 30 minutes or as long as you can and than place on your eyes until they loose their cool can repeat if you want, you can also place the spoons in water and then in the freezer

    toner really does clean and a good one leaves it soft

    tea tree oil and toothpaste are good for blemishes

    thick masques usually pull the dirt out of your pores

    heat up about a teaspoon of milk, then dip a small piece of bread (small or big enough to cover the zit) place it on your face and put a band aid (fabric sticks better) over it, it sucks out the dirt of some black heads and puss etc

    if you can stand the heat-place a small EMPTY medicine bottle (like those small Motrin or anti nausea etc) in boiling water until hot then squeeze the air out and put it over your zit and let it suck the dirt out (it suctions to your face) [warning may cause bruising-painless but visible its like when you get one around your mug from sucking up a cup!!]

    oatmeal and sugar/lemon scrubs are better than a lot of store bought stuff

    don't pop zits popping=scars

    avocado, coconut, olive oils etc are very softening to the skin

    loofah's hold sooo much bacteria

    HAIR

    use a deep conditioning masque twice a week, warm it up and put it on your hair put a hair plastic shower cap on and shoot some hot air on it for 5 minutes repeat every 15 minutes for 1 hr then rinse with one batch warm water and then cold water to make it shine as cold as you can stand

    lots of brushing is really bad

    always protect your hair from the sun-any product that puts a barrier between your hair and the sun is good, creams and serums are better than sprays, they're thicker but if you have fine hair than use a spray so you don't weight it down less is always more when using makeup don't go to over the top unless its a Halloween party! always take a shower/bath every day to keep ur hair from getting gross and greasy, definitely use a hair dryer to dry ur hair it will look much better than natural hair dry. if u want u shuld get highlights but dont b 2 crazy so if u have brown hair dont get whtie highlights get like a lighter color of ur hair color, if u hav glasses u shuld get contacts it will really make ur face look clearer and better no offense to ppl with glasses. if u hav braces its no big deal just make sure the colors u get are some what neutral and match things u hav in ur closet, when buying makeup dont buy oil makeup and always make sure u wash ur face at night! if u want and u think u have yellow teeth try using white strips crest white strips r definetly the best!! hmm beauty sleep isnt really what it sounds like so it just means u get well rested so that u dont hav bags under ur eyes and ur face is all blotchy u shuld get a good 8-10 hours of sleep each night. if u leave mascara on when u go to bed nothing will happen u might get black powdery stuff around ur eyes but its no big deal u just wash it off in the morning! hope i helped u good luck!! :)
