Stay Beautiful in Your 30s

Aging, career highs and lows, even pregnancy can lead to some changes in your complexion and well-being. You may start noticing a few fine lines around the eyes and mouth, dullness in your skin, or adult acne.

Problem: Wrinkles around the eyes

The eyes have it - thinner, more-sensitive skin, that is. While regular facial moisturizers can keep the skin supple, eye creams usually contain lower concentrations of active ingredients and fewer preservatives, so they are gentler.

Make sure the cream you choose includes the basics, such as sunscreen and antioxidants. If you need a little extra help, look for ingredients like caffeine and magnolia extract to reduce puffiness; coneflower to cool and soothe or vitamin K to lessen dark under-eye circles.

Skin care is retarding the ageing process. Here are a few tips for proactive anti-aging skin care:

1. Exfoliate. The 30s is the decade when cell turnover begins to slow down, leading to dull, uneven skin tone. Counter this with regular exfoliation and moisturizing treatments that contain alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs)

2. See spot treatments. Pregnancy may cause hormonal upheavals that can result in melasma, also called "mask of pregnancy" ( dark patches on the skin). Use gentle skin- lightening products that can contain vitamin C and licorice extract.

3. Take your vitamins. A single multivitamin provides you most of the vitamins and minerals you need. Doctors may also recommend calcium supplements.

4. Get moving. Strengthen your bones and muscles with weight training.

5. Drink a lot of water: Skin care can't be any simpler than this. Water helps in flushing out the toxins from the body, hence keeping it clean and making it less prone to disease. Around 8 glasses of water (per day) is recommended by all doctors.
6. Avoid the use of strong, chemical based products on your skin. Natural skin care products are a good option. Use of organic skin care products (home made or commercial) can be a very effective anti-aging skin care measure.

7. Keep your makeup clean. Replace the sponges in your compact on a regular basis. Now and then, toss the whole works and start fresh -- the average shelf life for cosmetics is 6 to 12 months. Don't buy products so expensive that you'll be heartbroken if you have to throw them away.


8. Do not overuse skin care products. Excessive and harsh application, both are harmful.

9. Protect yourself from the sun -- use sunscreen and avoid direct sunlight between the hours of 10 and 2.

10. Don't -- I repeat -- don't smoke. Your skin is a large organ and it needs a lot of circulation. Smoking impairs that dramatically. That's why smokers' skin looks dull and gray. Instead of having oxy-generated blood delivered to the surface of the skin, they're getting poisons and oxidants.

11. Many studies have been done over the years demonstrating the healing and physiological properties of bovine colostrum. Colostrum helps the immune system to function more efficiently, maintain peak performance and fight acne causing bacteria.

Colostrum supplies growth factors (hormones) as well as stimulating the endocrine system to keep producing its own supply of hormones. Research strongly indicates that the combination of growth and immune factors in colostrum works together to create a potent anti-aging effect, including tighter skin, and regrowth of cells and tissue of organs that normally decrease in size with age.

Daily supplementation on Bovine Colostrum allows the body to have improved resilience against any type of stress. Overall health and well being is accomplished when the body has all of the necessary factors it needs for defense, healing and repair.

If you have special skin issues, such as stubborn acne, rosacea, or extremely sensitive or oily skin, the best thing to do is to seek out the advice of a professional dermatologist.

Pretty, healthy skin is well within your grasp, with a little bit of awareness, determination and persistence on your part. The results are definitely worth it. Live juicy and be happy with your largest organ!

Skin hydration is very important because it is strongly connected with skin health and looks. Lack of hydration can make you look bad and can affect your skin condition. There are many lotions and creams on the market which promise to hydrate the skin, but fail to do so. Home remedies for skin hydration are the safest and the most effective way to achieve the desired result. Remember that no matter how effective cosmetic products or home remedies are, your skin can't be hydrated only from outside.
Most people believe acne only affects teenagers. Truth is that many are surprised to notice acne breakouts appearing in their late 30s. When adults get acne, it's usually associated to stress and hormonal imbalances. Luckily, treatment can be achieved by using the same acne treatment creams as teenagers use. However this is sometimes not enough.
There are several types of scars, and several treatment options you can choose from. For the most part, scars can be treated without too much trouble, although keloid scars are quite possibly the most difficult lesions to get rid of because they usually recur. Keloids are abnormal tissue that extends beyond the area of the initial wound. It is common for this type of scar to keep growing so you should treat it as soon as possible.
It is a myth that only people with dry skin can have sensitive skin. As a matter of fact, sensitive skin is not a skin type at all, but rather a condition that can exist with any skin type. This skin condition makes treating skin more difficult. Sensitive facial skin can make it difficult to find effective yet gentle acne products for oily or combination skin. It can also make it a little troublesome to find the right moisturizing products for your dry skin. People with sensitive skin can also suffer various problems during the different seasons of the year.
Your skin, the largest organ of your body, is made up of a number of components: protein, water, lipids and different minerals and chemicals. Its structure is designed specifically to defend and protect your inner organs from environmental effects. It is there to guard against germs and infections. Before buying a skin care product, do your research: know your skin type and how certain ingredients affect it. Dry skin sufferers should select products with natural ingredients that can both exfoliate and moisturize.
Adaptogens are becoming more and more famous in the skin care market but not too many individuals are familiar with what they actually do. There is ample stress in our world, whether it be mental or environmental and all of it takes a toll on your skin matrix. Adaptogens are making waves in an already crammed skin care market because they alleviate the stress response to help prevent adrenal exhaustion by bettering the performance of the innate immune system. This may seem vague so let us delve a little deeper.
Dry skin can be difficult to treat, especially because it is susceptible to rashes, irritation, and redness. It can also get worse as the seasons change. Each one of the four season comes with its own set of problems. Winter wind and cold air draw out the moisture from your skin. Summer means more pool time, which means more contact with irritating substances such as chlorine.
