Artificial nails are a favorite accessory with women who want long nails but can’t get their natural nails to grow that well. Artificial nails are more durable than natural nails and last much longer. They are an answer for people who want to have beautiful hands and perfectly manicured nails all the time. Nail extensions are also great for broken nails, special occasions, and whenever you have a yearning for an instant set of beautiful nails.
Acrylics are very popular with brides because they make their hands appear ladylike and graceful. They are usually a combination of liquid (monomer) and powder (polymer) and are probably the strongest among all the artificial nail options. They too need to be applied with finesse to appear natural and beautiful.
Gel nails are very natural looking. As the natural nail grows out, your manicurist will fill in the base and file down the artificial tip. Eventually, you will end up with just the overlay on your natural nail. Make sure that your cuticles are pushed back and that whatever old polish you have on your natural nails are removed. They are applied over the natural nail as a sort of thick paint. If applied and removed correctly, artificial nails will do little damage to your natural nails, but they won't make them healthier. You’ll also need regular manicurist appointments to fill in the artificial nails as they grow out with your natural ones.
Gel nails are popular with most first-timers to artificial nails, as they are easier to apply and set. They Gel nails, acrylic nails, nail extensions and wraps are some of the more common available options. Gel nails are formed by applying a premixed, liquid chemical gel which is then set under a UV lamp.
Nail extensions are beautiful and well worth the time and extra expense. Be sure to pick a salon known for their cleanliness and expertise. Have fun , look gorgeous!

Plastic surgery has always had a stigmatic association with upper-class wealth and excess. We typically see and read about rich women and celebrities with easy lives making changes to their already gorgeous bodies, but rarely ever hear of a normal woman having cosmetic surgery. Many women today secretly desire a better physique, but few consider plastic surgery a realistic option because they assume the procedures are too expensive for them to afford.
Let’s take a look at the most recent cost statistics from the American Society of Plastic Surgery (ASPS)*.
On the short list of the most popular surgical cosmetic procedures for women in 2005 were breast augmentation, breast lifts, liposuction, eyelid lifts (blepharoplasty), tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), nose-reshaping (rhinoplasty) and facelifts and these are the average surgeons’ fees:
· Breast augmentation - $3,406· Breast lift - $3,573· Liposuction - $2,323· Eyelid lift - $2,534· Tummy tuck - $4,402· Nose-reshaping - $3,511· Facelift - $4,484Note that they are only the average plastic surgeon’s fees and as with liposuction, only include one area of surgery. If you have liposuction on multiple areas of your body, the costs will increase. Other fees may, but not necessarily, include anesthesia, facility or surgical center fees and nursing fees. If the doctor owns his own surgical center, you may get a break on the facility fee as he probably will probably charge you less than if he also had to pay a hospital facility fee out of his pocket. Also, if he brings his own staff to a hospital, rather than using hospital staff, he can save a few dollars there as well. Anesthesia can range from a small amount to a rather large amount, depending on the type of anesthesia you require and the length of time you require it. On average, facility fees range from $600-$900 an hour and anesthesia ranges from $250-$300 an hour.

Now we all know that fruit has fantastic properties that can enhance our natural beauty and might even stop the aging process somewhat. That is a must in modern society because everyone and their dogs want to stop the natural aging process and preserve their youth forever. It is all about looking young in today’s world. Now fruit in general may not enable you to maintain your beauty, but one particular fruit can contribute to your beauty far more than others. Meet the blueberry!
Blueberries contain more antioxidants than any other fruit, which is extremely beneficial to our exterior beauty. Antioxidants attack the free radicals, or substances that are created within our own bodies, that naturally attack and degrade cells and thus cause aging of the skin. Obviously this has more serious repercussions as they also attack various other cells within the body, but as far as beauty is concerned, they do have anti-aging properties.
Blueberries are also a great source of vitamins, especially vitamin C. 140g of blueberries actually contains 30% of our daily recommended dose. The purpose of vitamin C is to help the body in cell renewal, which is essential to the skin. Cell regeneration naturally slows down when we get older, which is why we get wrinkles and weak spots, but a plentiful supply of vitamin C along with antioxidants can help to keep this at bay. Consuming blueberries on a daily basis can therefore help to keep you beautiful, both on the inside and the outside.
Blueberries can also be used to literally keep you beautiful. There are recipes that can be used as facemasks and body scrubs that are easily home made and cost very little to prepare. One example is a paste that can double up as a facemask and a body scrub. It is designed to perk up tired skin as well as exfoliate dead skin and remove excess oil. Regular use should actually reduce the excess oil produced by the skin. Simply put a cup full of blueberries in a blender with a cup of oats, five or six almonds and two tablespoons of honey. Mix until the contents of the blender become a fine paste and then use on your face. It should be left on until it is dry, which takes roughly around 15 minutes, and then washed off with warm water. If you want to use it as a body scrub, just roughly blend it until the oats are chopped before use. The mixture can be refrigerated for future use, but you should be careful that the blueberries don’t get on your clothes because they do stain!
As you can see, blueberries can be of benefit to you in every aspect to your beauty regime. Whether you use them in home beauty concoctions or eat them blueberries can seriously help you to look and feel healthy. How many other fruits and foods can you say that about? Take advantage of nature and reap the health and beauty benefits!

Real cosmetic surgery is one of the quickest growing branches of modern day medicine. Cosmetic surgeons have become busier since more and more people are opting for elective surgery. Cosmetic surgery is all about how you look at yourself. Dental procedures and many reconstructive procedures also fall in this category. Cosmetic surgery is now common in both women and men.
Since the price on cosmetic surgery has come down, many people are making a vacation out of it, where they take a week off and fly to the doctor that will perform the surgery. Since cosmetic surgery is not often covered by your insurance, the cost of the procedure can be one of largest selling points. When your health is involved, it’s best not to cut corners, if you would pardon the pun, and not substitute a quality procedure for cost.
What are different types of collagen? The tissue of cows is used to create bovine collagen, this type of collagen is very compatible with humans. Collagen injections are all-purpose fillers to fix problems on the face. Collagen is filled into the areas that need plumping-up.
Botox is popular for those people who want to get rid of frown lines, crows feet and any other kind or wrinkle, this is non-surgical and is accomplished by injections. Botox is also an extremely popular cosmetic surgery method. It has become increasingly popular over the past decade in the cosmetic surgery field. Botox is a natural protein that is produced by a bacterium. Because Botox is a prescription drug, it must be used carefully.
When people get eyelid surgery they usually do this to get rid of excess skin and skin that is damaged by the sun. Many people have those problem eye bags that need to be tightened up or removed so this is a popular surgery. It is popular for doctors to perform procedures on the eyelids, tear ducts and eye sockets for those who are inflicted with certain diseases.
To remove your eye bags whilst lifting your face is only a matter of more time for the surgeon. By getting surgery on your face by improving muscle tone you can reduce the number of years off of your face. The muscles of the face and the fat are all lifted up and moved to when the skin drapes over them it gives a more youthful appearance. The bruising can fade in around two weeks, while the swelling could last a bit longer. After surgery the skin will heal and there will be very few irregularities and the skin will feel much smoother.
Some people refer to cosmetic surgery as the fountain of youth; this is not exactly right because cosmetic only changes the outward appearance. When receiving a procedure you need to consider the reputation of the surgeon, understanding the cost of the operation and if the surgery is worth the risks associated with it. Many people are receiving cosmetic surgery, it is not only for the rich anymore. The charm of youth and beauty has attracted us for ages. Cosmetic surgery is not about how other people look at you.

Most celebrities look good in every situation--whether it's strolling down the red carpet or posing for a mug shot in the slammer. But how can us "normal" folks get our own fresh-off-the-red-carpet face? To score the secrets on Hollywood's hottest beauty looks, we turned to American Idol makeup artist Mezhgan Hussainy, expert at perfecting the gamut of styles from Rubin to Clay, Jordan to Sanjaya, and Taylor to Katherine. Savvy Miss readers asked, she answered.
Pam, 32: “How can I get the dewy skin look that you see on celebrities without looking shiny and sweaty?”
Mezhgan: Get a really pretty cream highlighter (Maybelline makes a great one) and mix that with foundation. You can add a lot or a little highlighter, depending on how dewy you want it. To mix it, I generally use the back of my hand to get the consistency I like and test it on my cheek and see how it looks..
After you put on your foundation you want to finish it off with a little bit of loose powder. It sets the makeup and keeps you from looking too oily or greasy. Even though you have powder on, your skin still looks glowy because of the sheen in the highlighter. Then just finish it up with just a little bit of blush on the apple of the cheeks and you’re ready to go.
Monika, 21: “Every time I do a smoky eye I end up looking like a raccoon. How can I get a smoky eye without looking like I was in a fight?
Mezhgan: Just because you want to have smoky eyes doesn’t mean you have to put it on the entire eye. Start with the lid and keep adding until you’re comfortable with it. It’s one of those things you play with.
I normally like to start with a taupey color and then add brown and a little bit of dark to it, like a black. Then I decide how deep I want to go with it and what liner I’m going to do—am I going to go with a really dark one or something thinner? For a little bit of drama you can add false eyelashes which really make the eyes pop. And, if you put too much shadow on, you can go back and use a makeup sponge to help blend it out.
To prevent dark eye shadow from falling on your face and ruining your foundation, get a loose, transparent powder and cake it under the eyes with a brush or sponge before applying the shadow. Then, brush off the transparent powder and it takes the fallen shadow along with it. The leftover powder also highlights your eyes because it’s light.
Valerie, 25: “How can I avoid the “five p.m. melt-down face” when all my makeup is rubbed off and my skin gets really oily? I want to look flawless all the time.”
Mezhgan: I like to use blotting paper throughout the day. It helps absorb the extra oil and keeps you from looking like you have a lot of makeup caked on. Then finish it off with blotting powder.
Blotting powder is lighter than regular powder and it’s used more to take the shine away than to cover. You should still use a regular powder in the morning and then use the blotting powder to keep everything fresh.
If your makeup keeps rubbing off, make sure to keep your blotting powder and a nice cream foundation with you. That way if you need to touch up under your eyes or hide those little blemishes that have a way of popping back out, you’ll be able to keep it in check.
Lindsey, 22: “I really want to get that classic French face, with the deep red lips. How can I get this look without having the red overwhelm my face?”
Mezhgan: If your lips are dark then your eyes should be light. My favorite is when you do a really light silver eye. (Make sure you don’t go with a dark silver.) You want something that brightens and gives you a little bit of sheen. Then use a little black eyeliner and do the crease with a taupe color to add depth.
For lips, pick your favorite deep red and then find the lip liner that matches it best. You want to line your lips and pencil in the inside. Then, when you put the lipstick on over the liner they will blend together so you can’t see the difference between the two. It also makes the lipstick last longer.
Allison, 23: “I have really fair skin. How can I have a sun-kissed face without having it contrast too much with my body?”
Mezhgan:Bronzers are always great to give you that healthy glow, but if you are really fair you don’t want one that’s four or five shades darker. The trick is to get a bronzer that’s only one or two shades darker than your skin tone. Some people recommend testing the bronzer on your inner arm or hands, but, actually, it’s better to test it on your face because then you can see exactly how it’s going to look. Your hair, eyes and lip color affect the way the shade will appear, so it’s important to try it where you’re going to use it to get the complete picture.
Once you’ve chosen your bronzer, use a big powder brush to apply. Make sure you get your neck and then bring it down to your chest and gradually fade it out. And don’t end it on your jaw line. That happens a lot. I see people and I say, “Oh my god, you look fantastic! Your face looks great,” but their neck and chest is too light. If you wear something that’s strapless you want to put a little body bronzer on your shoulders and your arms to make sure everything looks the same.

Ingrown hairs are a common problem after bikini line hair removal but these tips will tell you how to avoid this painful problem.
Ingrown hairs are a common side effect of bikini line hair removal and they can be particularly painful when they occur in the bikini area. They usually appear as painful red bumps surrounded by inflamed and tender skin. If you have curly hair, you may be more prone to them. If you don't want your beach-ready bikini line spoiled with these ugly bumps, follow the tips below.
The Best way to shave pubic area without causing ingrown hairs
To avoid ingrown hairs appearing after pubic shaving, don't shave too close or shave the same skin over and over again. If you are prone to ingrown hairs, don't shave against the direction of hair growth during pubic shaving. Always use plenty of shaving foam or gel if you're shaving with a razor. Gently exfoliating before pubic shaving will help get rid of dead skin cells that can trap hairs when they try to re-grow. Exfoliating gloves and creams are widely available. Don't exfoliate if you have ingrown hairs already. Doing so may make them worse.
Bikini line hair removal using wax
If you're bikini waxing at home, try to make sure hair comes out by the roots. If you are particularly prone to ingrown hairs, it might be better to go to a salon or spa. The bikini wax they use is more effective at pulling out hair from the roots.
What to do if you get ingrown hairs
Ingrown hairs along the bikini line will usually work their way out on their own over time. You can help them along the way by holding a hot compress over them a few times a day. Don't wear tight clothing until they have disappeared. Products are available that claim to speed up the healing process of ingrown hairs so ask your pharmacist.

Do you have unwanted hair? Want to find a permanent hair removal solution? Then you are not alone. For many men and women, unwanted hair can be the cause of much frustration. There have been many ways to remove this unwanted hair including shaving, waxing, plucking, and electrolysis, most of which cause some amount of pain.
If you want a permanent hair removal solution that doesn't involve the extreme pain of electrolysis, or the quick re-growth associated with shaving then lazer hair removal could be a very worthwhile option. Lazer hair removal has been researched and proven to be highly effective in removing unwanted body hair. You can use this treatment on almost any part of the body and best of all it is painless.
When it comes to permanent hair removal a laser hair removal treatment is the best option available. Not only has this treatment been proven to actually work but it has also become one of the most popular ways to achieve permanent hair removal.
Lazer hair removal works by heating the hair follicle and preventing it from growing and with each laser hair removal treatment less and less hair returns until you have your desired goal, permanent hair removal.
The number of treatments that are required will depend on each individual's skin and hair type. The darker the hair the easier it is to remove and this will result in fewer treatments being needed. Lazer hair removal is scientifically known as selective photothermolysis or the heating of hair follicle to render it inactive. Using a laser hair removal treatment as a means of permanent hair removal has been proven safe and effective and the only draw back to this new technology is the cost. The cost of laser hair removal can vary but the average cost is approximately $500 per treatment.

Cosmetic Tattooing is a treatment that has been around since Cleopatra,and in our ever-ageless world has become just as popular as Cosmetic Surgery. This is a para-medical treatment that offers fullness to fading and shrinking lips, highlight and definition to eyes and perfection to eyebrow shapes. It is performed like a traditional tattoo, however a pigment is used instead of Indian Ink. This is for cosmetic reasons, allowing breakdown over a 3-5 year period, allowing for change with age and fashion trends. By being a pigment rather than an ink,also means it has very few allergic reactors.
Now I know that some of you would be thinking to yourself-Who would have that done and Why? The answer is probably someone you already know. The treatment is beneficial to executives needing to be well groomed at all times, busy mums who no longer have time for makeup application, sportswomen, and the more mature woman wanting to re-enhance their appearance and look younger. If you look around, most people have uneven eyebrows (normally due to being over-waxed or plucked), seven out of ten women wear lipstick, and six out of ten wear eyeliner. So having this treatment done by a qualified and competent practitioner, not only saves time in the mornings, it makes you look great all the time, and corrects or enhances your natural features. Once again if your practitioner is competent and artistic, the procedures should make you look like a more enhanced and youthful YOU, not a branded mannequin.
Lots of people ask or worry about pain factor, especially as treatments are on the face. Generally the procedures only cause mild discomfort, and strong topical anaesthetics are on hand to help alleviate your discomfort. Swelling can occur and last 24-48 hours (home care is advised on how to minimise swelling and have the best result). There are a lot of people out and about doing procedures like these with minimal qualifications, which obviously is very scary, especially if they are going to touch your face If this is a treatment that interests you, I can tell you personally from having it done, that for me is marvellous, and a great time saver. My eyebrows are symmetrical all the time, no longer needing eyebrow pencil, I look like I have eyes when I wake up, and my lips always have colour in them. Fantastic for a quick get away in the mornings, just applying some mascara and lip gloss.
Make sure you look into your practitioners qualifications, their before and after photos, and don’t just choose a practitioner on price alone, remember your not purchasing a lipstick-this is a para-medical procedure. This means there is down time (healing time),there will be swelling and your not going to initially walk out feeling like Princess Diana. Make sure your well prepared for this, and that your practitioner has answered all your questions, and is using all disposable equipment(needles, gloves etc).
My qualifications for these reasons were of utmost importance to me.I am and have been an Aesthetician (para-medical Beauty Therapist) and Make-up artist for 18 years and a qualified Cosmetic Tattooist for 8 years. I researched and studied Cosmetic Tattooing with an international practitioner for 2 years and did advance training with Australia’s pioneer of tattooing

Emu Oil has been widely used by the Australian Aborigines for centuries for its healing & beautifying properties. The western world is catching up now though and finding just how much of a "miracle" this oil is.
Emu Oil is loaded with Essential Fatty Acids (EFA's) our bodies DO NOT produce but need daily. Omega 3, 6 & 9 have become synonymous with health. With all the media exposure of EFA's, many people are now looking for healthy ways to get these vital components into their daily life. Emu Oil is the answer and no mercury contamination either.
But Emu Oil isn't just that, even though that alone would be fantastic.
Emu Oil is truly remarkable in that it has the capacity to go deeper into the lower layers of skin because at a molecular level, Emu Oil is very close to our own skin molecular composition. As a result, our bodies do not try to repel it! When other ingredients are added the Emu Oil will take those ingredients down further with it. Emu Oil is a wonderful carrier oil.
Emu Oil is highly concentrated. A 2 oz bottle of Emu Oil can last the average person using one or two drops of oil & applied to the face & neck at least 2 months. A little DOES go a long way!
What can Emu Oil do for you? Let me give you some examples.
Do you have dry skin, eczema or psoriasis? Emu Oil will help skin conditions drastically. My oldest daughter fights eczema and has tried everything from prescriptions to OTC medicines to other alternative health products. Emu Oil works best and keeps the breakdown incidents down much better than anything she's ever used. Emu oil heals acne---adult, teen & hormonal too, often better than perscriptions!
Is there a baby or child in the house? Emu Oil works wonders on diaper rash, cradle cap, is perfect to keep tender baby's skin soft & healthy. Kids love Emu Oil for scrapes, cuts, burns...most childhood mishaps can be quickly healed using Emu Oil. Kids like it because it doesn't burn nor hurt when applied. It also helps to reduce scarring.
Fighting wrinkles? Emu Oil is an tremendous asset with the fight against aging issues as well, for both sexes. Actually, men really like Emu Oil because its fast, easy, safe, economical and doesn't smell "flowery". When you add ingredients like shea butter, collagen, and other well known anti-aging ingredients to Emu Oil, the ingredients work in synergy & you'll get the benefits of all the ingredients with Emu Oil taking it deeper into the lower layers of skin where real healing & the work begins. Emu Oil by itself is an excellent moisturizer.
My favorite thing about Emu Oil though is the natural pain management I receive from it. I have trauma induced arthritis in my back, ankle & elbow from different accidents. I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia 2 years ago. Emu Oil has helped the quality of my life tremendously and because of that, I personally will not be without this miracle oil ever. People suffering with chronic daily pain know what its like to try to have a normal life. And if you're like me, and living on pain pills isn't the answer, you may want to check out Emu Oil for yourself. There are topical creams to use for spot pain and can be repeated as needed. There are also supplements to take for overall help with chronic pain (and helps lower cholesterol too).

A perfume company is a multi-purpose entrepreneur. His company produces multiple products which he sales in the market. Yet only 70-80 percent of the product fetches him money. In this situation, no amount of subsidies or government support prices can help public. People will really benefit when they get money for fragrances residues. This can only happen when these residues can be used to produce energy for powering country. Three types of product can be produced from these residues. Liquid fuels such as ethanol or pyrolysis oil; gaseous fuels.
Ethanol, which can be used as perfume product conversions of residues. Extensive R&D is being done the world over to optimist this technology. Large plants in Canada, USA and US have already been set up with this technology. Nevertheless, a lot of research needs to be done to make ethanol production from residues economically viable. As the demand for product increases of the production.

Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel did not literally create the fragrances that bear her name. Her first creation occurred as she was on the brink of stardom, about to launch a new line of fashion. She wanted a perfume to symbolize that line of clothing, so she sought out the services of a Russian-born perfumist living in Paris at the time. The year was 1923. Still, she had some very specific ideas about fragrance. She told Ernst Breaux, the perfumist, to come up with something "completely artificial."
Up until that time, fragrances were completely natural. Natural ingredients were all that were ever used to create scents, which varied widely not only by geography but also from batch to batch. In regions that grew lavender, there were lavender scents. If you were fortunate enough to have gardenias and roses, they showed up in the perfume.
Exotic ingredients like sandalwood from India were rare and extremely costly. Coco Chanel had a different vision not only for fashion but for fragrance. Her idea was that fashion, like art, was something contrived, invented, man-made … artificial. Just as her famous suit and pillbox hats were human inventions rather than natural, she wanted a perfume to reflect that.
Breaux did not invent aldehyde but his sample fragrances for Miss Chanel used this particular synthetic fragrance. Aldehyde is best described as a synthetic fragrance molecule. It is not found anywhere in nature; it is cooked up in a lab.
According to legend (and so many are told, it's hard to sort out what really happened), Breaux made six samples, numbering them Chanel No. 1, No. 2, No. 3 and so on. Coco Chanel picked No. 5 as her fragrance. There are versions of this story that say she picked No. 5 because she loved it best. There is another version of the story that claimed that since Chanel would be unveiling her new line on the fifth day of the fifth month, she decided to pick the fifth sample.
Chanel No. 5 was not the first perfume to use aldehyde but it is the first major perfume to take advantage of synthetic fragrance. Like all great perfumes, Chanel No. 5 is a mixture of many different scents. Of course, some floral notes were mixed in as well.
The best way to describe how aldehyde smells is that it adds "sparkle" to the scent. Today, many perfumes use aldehyde and some perfume experts even consider aldehyde a fragrance family or category. A very powerful "hard-core" aldehyde scent was just released in early 2007; it's called Aldehyde 44 and it's by LeLabo, carried by Barneys. An aldehyde scent you can buy more easily is Greed by Gendarme.
With today's general sentiment that natural is better than synthetic, some might be perplexed that the perfume world is contrarian. While some perfumistas do claim to prefer natural scents, most perfume today is synthetic. And there are some good reasons.
Synthetic molecules are much easier to control for uniform product. Take a lemon note for example, used in a lot of fragrances. How can a manufacturer keep that same intensity and quality consistent over thousands of ounces with natural lemons? Different products picked in different places can produce wide variations in odor.
More importantly, synthetic scents help preserve the environment. There is no need to threaten the indigenous sandalwood trees of India or the musk deer with extinction because perfume lovers can get those same scents without destroying plant or animal life.
A great example of why perfume is synthetic today is musk. True musk is actually a natural substance taken from the sexual glands of a male musk deer. Sometimes other animals could be used. In order to harvest the musk, the animal was killed; musk is mainly used in the base notes of certain perfumes. Today, it's synthetic.
Amber is sometimes listed as a perfume ingredient, but it isn't the golden fossilized resin that is sometimes used in jewelry. It's a nickname for ambergris, which is a substance that comes from sperm whales. During the whaling era, whales were slaughtered for their meat, blubber (rendered into whale oil and used for lamps), and ambergris for perfume. Today, ambergris is synthetic.
In fact, if you ever read through the various "notes" in perfume, you find a lot of things with strange names that have to be synthetic. Quest by Niel Morris has ozone notes, Coney Island from Bond No. 9 lists maragarita mix.
The original "artificial" perfume, Chanel No. 5, is still on the market. They don't keep such a thing as the perfume best-seller list but it is likely that Chanel No. 5 remained consistently popular over the past 80-some years.

Introduction
What hairstyle will look best? Many women ask this question. Women want a style that is maintainable, satisfying to themselves, and attractive to others. Styles are changing all the time in Hollywood. Stars have long, short, curly, and shaved heads of hair. How can a woman choose the right style? Wigs offer a solution to this question. You can have short, medium, or long hair in any style and any color you like. It requires no cutting, dying, or styling.
For curiosity’s sake, the following provides some information on preferences for long and short hair.
Long hair = lots of attraction?
Traditionally women have had longer hair. Most iconic figures of feminine beauty through history and in the present age have featured long, luxurious locks. Longer hair offers the ability to change frequently. One day a woman can have straight hair pulled back, and the next day, display long, flowing curls.
The shorter, the better?
It has become more acceptable and prevalent for women to have shorter hair. Though styling choices are more limited, maintenance and preparation is easier. Shorter hairstyles can better accentuate the face and offer a fuller, healthier look for those who are suffering thinning hair.

Microdermabrasion, a non-surgical cosmetic procedure developed in Italy in 1985, has long been heralded as a revolutionary skin care technique. During this procedure, a microdermabrasion machine is used to spray tiny crystals of abrasive material, usually aluminum oxide, onto the face. The crystals exfoliate dead skin cells, and are then vacuumed away. The procedure can revitalize dull skin, clean and shrink pores, as well as reduce the appearance age spots, pigmentation irregularities, fine lines and wrinkles. It takes about 30-45 minutes to perform and requires virtually no recovery—you can have it done on your lunch break and be back to work with fresh skin. Provided, of course, that the procedure is done properly.
The Food and Drug administration classifies microdermabrasion machines as a category 1 prescription cosmetic devices, and does not require that their operation be supervised by a physician. This is because the microdermabrasion procedure is only intended to involve the exfoliation of the dead outermost layer of the skin, the stratum corneum, and not the deeper levels of the dermis. Therefore, it is up to each individual state to set up their own regulations and determine microdermabrasion training requirements. The problem is that the calibration of the machines varies greatly, and it can be very easy for even an experienced technician to delve beneath the stratum corneum, possibly damaging delicate living tissue. In states where microdermabrasion training requirements are less stringent, this possibility becomes more likely.
In South Carolina, a spa professional trained in microdermabrasion can only perform the procedure under the supervision of a doctor. In California, however, any esthetician, regardless of whether or not they have had microdermabrasion training, is legally allowed to practice it. Colorado requires 14 hours of microdermabrasion training at a vocational school. The State of Florida allows the procedure to be performed by spa professionals on only the head, neck, and scalp. Some states have no regulations at all, leaving it up to individual spas and manufacturers of microdermabrasion machines to train technicians themselves. Even where legal regulations do exist, course requirements vary so much from state to state that it is difficult to guess how well, or how poorly, a technician may have been trained. Well respected organizations of estheticians, such as the National Coalition of Esthetician and Related Associations (NCEA) have long stated that they would like to implement a unified standard of microdermabrasion training, but given the current state of disorder, this could be a long and difficult process. Until they are successful and microdermabrasion training becomes more uniform, it would be wise for individual consumers to do their research before undergoing the procedure.

Curly hairstyles present a look that can go with any occasion. Many people with curly hair often desire straight hair and those with straight hairstyles envy curly tresses. Curly hairstyles can be worn by anyone and everyone. If you've got curly hair and it tends to frizz, use a heavy-weight gel or a relaxing balm and let your hair dry naturally.

Color for curly hair is good. Either lighter or darker to give the hair more dimension.

Modern hair coloring techniques add true dimension to style right down to the natural movement of your hair. In addition, hair coloring techniques include veiling and chunking. When coloring one's hair, it is always advisable to visit a professional hair colorist as there are many mistakes a person could make, as well as some serious consequences. Hair colouring products generally fall into four categories: temporary, semipermanent, deposit only/demi, and permanent. All these hair color products, except for temporary color, require a patch test before application to determine if the client is allergic to the product. Temporary hair color is available in various product forms including rinses, shampoos, gels, sprays, and others. This type of hair color is typically used to give brighter, more vibrant shades or colors such as orange or red, that may be difficult to achieve with semi-permanent and permanent hair color.

Throughout history, perfume has always been expensive. The wise men brought gifts of frankincense and myrrh (perfumery ingredients) simply because they were the equivalent of gold. They still are. But if you visit the perfume counter of the local department store or visit fragrance websites online, you may notice that there are lots of different fragrance products for the very same scent and sometimes they have very different price tags. It can be tempting to buy the cheapest product in the line-up, but is that really the best deal?
Compounding the problem is the fact that lots of companies are inventing new types of fragrance products. Just the other day, I bought a product called a soufflé. It was something that a few years ago might have been called a body butter. Actually, it is a fragrant cream.
As far as I know, there has never been a law that sets forth exactly how much scent is required for a product to call itself perfume.
Now that you know it's a jungle out there, there are some easy ways to sort through some of the confusion.
Of the liquid products that you apply to your body, perfume is the strongest stuff on the market. It is sometimes called by its French name parfum (par-fahm). It has the highest percentage of scent to carrier (the liquid stuff that stabilizes the perfume).
Pure scent does not work well because the old saying is true. You really can have too much of a good thing. Besides, pure scent would irritate most skin types.
Thus, fragrance must mix scent to a vehicle which also acts to stabilize the scent (keep it from degrading) and to make it easy and pleasant to apply.
Perfume has the most scent. It's strong. Bottles are typically small and have the highest price tags.
The next step down the ladder is called eau-de-parfum (oh-duh-par-fahm) and it's always written in French although the hyphens appear to be optional. It is not as expensive, or as powerful, as a true perfume, but it may very well be right for you. Most of the fragrance products on the shelves of true perfume divas tend to be eau-de-parfum selections.
Next down the line is the unfortunately named eau-de-toilette or even more unfortunately named toilet water. This has much less scent to carrier, so the scent is lighter. You'll end up having to touch up your scent more frequently but for those who prefer a lighter touch (and a lighter price tag), it is a good choice. Many fragrance houses do not make this product entry, but if you find it, know that it's lighter but still no lightweight.
The weakest link in the strength continuum is cologne. It has the least scent in the product and you'll also notice that it does not cost anywhere near what perfume costs. Cologne does not last like the stronger products, but it does convey the same scent. If you like to re-apply a lot or don't ever want to wear too much perfume, check out the cologne section.
Fragrant lotions and creams are sold under all sorts of names. You mind find them called sachets, soufflés, butters, and so on. There are no guidelines that say that a body butter has more scent than a lotion. However, fragrance always lingers longer when it's in an oily or emollient base, so you'll get good traction with these scents.
There are also solid perfumes, which is another way of producing an emollient base and infusing it with scent. Solid perfumes tend to be more concentrated in that you just dab on a bit, while the creams and lotions are meant to be smeared all over you.
Shower gels are replacing bath products (bubble bath, bath oils, and scented soap) and combine the fragrance with a traditional shower gel. You won't be getting a power-packed wallop of scent with such a product, but if you like only a whisper of fragrance, these are great. Most perfume fanatics use them as a layer and apply scented lotions and then perfume on top.
You can also sometimes find scented bath powders, bath soaks, and even scented deodorants. These are not true fragrance products, but they do contain the scent. They can work as part of the layering process or just because you like the smell. But don't think that a puff or two of scented powder is going to give you the same fragrance impact as a squirt or two of eau-de-parfum.
Perfume almost never goes on sale. However, manufacturers do take advantage of peak perfume purchasing seasons by packaging gift sets. One of these prepackaged gift sets usually combines some fragrance products like an eau-de-parfum or cologne with a matching shower gel, lotion, or other product and possibly with a little tote bag or other give-away item. Sometimes you get a zippy little carrying case or other geegaw besides.
Are these good deals? Very often I buy gift sets because I find that a packaged set often costs right around the same price as the fragrance product if you bought it a la carte. So if I can get lotion, shower gel, plus Burberry Brit eau-de-parfum for the same price as the eau-de-parfum by itself, why not?
Assuming you know the fragrance you want, what is the best deal? If you like the auxiliary products (creams, lotions, shower products) and there is a package deal, that's a good bet and probably better than buying the fragrance alone.
If there are not any cute package deals, think about what you most like to use. If you're busy and hate to re-apply fragrance but like to feel your perfume doesn't conk out by midday, look at the eau-de-parfum and the perfume. Compare prices. The eau-de-parfum will not last as long, so you'll do some re-application plus if you use more, it's not as cost effective as it might appear. Your best choice is likely going to be the perfume.
On the other hand, if you are an on-the-go person who works out in the middle of day, frequently plays tennis or goes swimming, and generally takes more than one shower a day, it's probably a better deal for you to go with a cologne since you'll be sweating or washing your fragrance off over the course of the day. If you have to re-apply your fragrance frequently, perfume is impractical. Not only is it costly, but it's probably too strong for you.
If you're in between, and probably most of us are, an eau-de-parfum is generally the most cost efficient product, which probably explains their popularity. They're strong enough that they don't fade too fast and require frequent touch-ups but they're not overly powerful. Expect prices here to be lower than for the matching perfume. If they're not or if the difference appears to you inconsequential, opt for the perfume.
If you think your impression is more than just how you look but extends to your voice, your mannerisms, your personality, and yes, your fragrance, then you need to invest in some fragrance products.

Most women have it. Even thin women. Even supermodels! And it’s just fat, right? So why is it so hard to get rid of the dreaded bumps?
Cellulite is indeed just fat, but it’s not exactly the kind that’s found in most of your body–it’s a layer of fat close to the skin that even rigorous exercise can’t budge. That’s because the body can’t use dermal fat (cellulite) as fuel when we exercise, so you can lose weight and firm up, but those nasty bumps are still there.
Why the Dimpled Appearance?
Based on research studies, scientists believe cellulite begins with the accumulation of swollen fat cells. These cells press on the connective fibers that surround them, causing the fibers to bend and pull the connected skin downward. Thus, the dreaded puckered appearance.
The Truth: You Can Get Rid of Your Cellulite
Contrary to what you may have heard or come to believe, it is absolutely possible to banish the bumps for good–without expensive, painful surgery. It just takes a little dedication, consistency, and lifestyle changes, and you can absolutely flush cellulite from your body.
The secret is simpler than you think, and it doesn’t even mean you have to kill yourself by running 10 miles a day and eating next to nothing. You must commit to a regimen of detoxification that focuses on cleansing your liver. That’s the critical first step. Once you’re on a healthy, detox diet for about 6 weeks, you’ll be amazed at the results.
The next step is exercise. Firming up the muscles in your thighs, hips, and buttocks isn't a walk in the park, but it's the best way to minimize the appearance of cellulite. And reshaping your lower half is a huge confidence boost. Imagine showing off a firm derrière and shapely legs this summer!
The third major step is a skincare regimen. Daily dry brushing of the skin, followed by self-massage and the use of a moisturizer that contains hyaluronic acid will help firm and smooth the texture of problem skin.

What are lotion candles? If you’ve not heard of them, you’re not alone. First appearing on the market in 2004, they are just now starting to gain a presence in the marketplace.
Whereas candles were once simply a functional way to light the dark, candles are now most often purchased to scent homes or to add a romantic or relaxing ambiance.
Lotion candles, also called body candles and massage candles, are yet another type of candle, this one serving several simultaneous functions. While they light a room, provide a wonderful ambiance, and emit subtle fragrance, lotion candles also contain cosmetic ingredients that make them a superb body moisturizer and massage oil alternative.
Because of their ingredients, a true lotion candle will melt at a very low temperature, usually at just 101 – 102 degrees. At slightly above body temperature, they are warm and not hot.
When shopping, how do you know if you’ve found a “true” lotion candle of good quality? Here are six tips to help you shop wisely.
1. Does the candle label list ingredients? Because lotion candles are intended for use on the body, they fall under FDA guidelines. Lotion candles should have all ingredients listed in order of prominence on the product label. If ingredients are not presented, the maker is not in compliance with the FDA.
2. Does the label list net weight and manufacturer contact information? As an FDA regulated product, the net weight must be included on packaging. The phone number and/or address of the manufacturer or private-labeled reseller must also be present.
3. Is the fragrance skin-safe? Not all fragrance is. Some traditional candle makers are now beginning to make lotion candles as well. If those candle-makers are not familiar with bath and body product requirements, they may be using fragrance oils not intended for body use. If you are buying from an independent candle-maker, be sure to ask about the fragrance they use. Fragrance that is not skin-safe can cause adverse reactions.
4. Is the fragrance used in skin-safe amounts? Even if a fragrance is developed for safe body use, the amount of fragrance used in lotion candles is only a fraction of the amount used in a traditional scented candle. Using more can be toxic to the skin. Beware of anyone touting a lotion candle that is “highly scented” or that can “scent your whole room.” Such claims almost guarantee that there is too much fragrance used and that the candle is not skin-safe, even if the fragrance oil used is skin-safe by definition.
5. Does the container make it easy to access the melted lotion? Many traditional candle jars will make it difficult to get to the melted liquid for easy and convenient use. The container should be easy to dip into to access the melted lotion.
6. How does the candle feel when applied? If you’re able to sample, a quality lotion candle will not feel waxy or leave a heavy residue. If it does, your candle is most likely made with traditional candle wax. Quality lotion candles feature cosmetic-grade ingredients that will provide your skin with the greatest benefits. A quality lotion candle should melt into a moisturizing liquid that fully soaks into your skin within a few minutes leaving a silky, soft feeling.
If you haven’t tried a lotion candle yet, you’re in for a treat. Just do your homework to ensure that you’re buying a candle made by a quality manufacturer that follows FDA guidelines and uses high quality ingredients. Then just light it and pamper yourself or a partner with the rich, warm lotion. Enjoy!

Hair is a reflection on the overall condition of your body. A healthy and well-nourished body reflects in bouncy and healthy hair. Healthy Hair care encompasses a wide range of treatments ranging from preventive hair care to tips for maintaining long hair. Because healthy hair is dependent on the health of the scalp (hair requires a plentiful supply of nutrient-rich blood to nourish the hair follicles in the scalp) it makes sense that eating nutritionally balanced meals will promote healthy follicles and healthy hair growth.
Herbs For Healthy Hair
1. Rosemary: Enhances dark hair.2. Burdock Root: Promotes hair growth and reduces hair from falling out.
Home Hair Treatments
Here are some herbal homemade hair treatments and natural home remedies for hair, which have also stood the test of time:
1. When your hair looks very stressed, nettles are a wonderful tonic and detox. Infuse dried nettle leaves (some health food stores now carry nettle tea bags) and drink the tea. The infusion can also be used as a hair rinse.
2. Home remedy for conditioning your blond hair - To shine and condition blond hair, rinse in chamomile tea. Add one teaspoon of lemon juice to a liter of tea for extra shine.
3. If your hair is very dry, infusions of elderflower, parsley or sage is a great home remedy for dry, frizzy hair and it will calm the frizz and restore moisture.
4. Greasy or oily hair will benefit from a rinse made with lemon balm, rosemary, lavender or mint. All these herbs will calm the scalp and reduce the sebum production. Learn more about natural remedy or shampoo for oily hair.
5. Red heads add highlights to their hair by using a strong infusion of calendula (marigold) as a hair rinse.
6. A rinse made with sage will darken brown hair as will an infusion of rosemary. Both can also be used to darken gray hair, giving a brown tint.

Are you one of those people who lay awake at night wondering which colors would best accentuate blue eyes or green eyes or red hair? Well, you’re not the only one. You’re actually one of many women out there who do the same thing although some of them might deny it. Others may think, we’re crazy but they are the ones who are mistaken. It’s a serious business knowing how to match a foundation shade to the tone of your skin, or which colors will look best on your eyes.
Certain colors work for some people, and unfortunately not for others. While blue eyeshadow may look great on one of your friends, sorry to say though that doesn’t mean it looks good on you. It can be easy to look at someone on the street and judge their makeup; it is much harder to do so objectively for you.
There are so many questions you need to ask yourself every morning when it comes to choosing makeup colors. Would matching your eyeshadow to the color of your eyes be a good look? Should you match it to your outfit or your hair, instead? There are many theories when it comes to choosing makeup colors, and in the end it may just come down to personal preference. Here are some tips and guidelines to help you out a little more.
Look for any celebrities with similar hair, eye and skin colors to you. They are usually the ones to know and set the latest trends in fashion and makeup. Whenever you see them on a website on in a magazine, check out what colors they are wearing. Try to take note how you feel with their look and how it would look on you.
Look for people with similar styles and tastes in clothing and coloring on the street. Check them out and what colors of makeup they are using. You may be surprised at some of the ideas you can get from strangers with the similar hair or eyes as you.
Read up on the internet or beauty magazines for tips on matching colors to your makeup. Visit a makeup counter for some advice and a sample of what colors and styles of application will best highlight your face.
Don’t forget these basic fundamental rules of color:
Never forget and underestimate the power of little makeup. Less is best.
Your foundation should match your skin exactly so there are no lines.
Concealer should be only a shade or two lighter than the foundation; Powder should match the foundation exactly so as not to affect the color of the foundation.
Try for your eyeshadow to be neutral or pale shades ranging from pale beige to pink to tan, brown, dark brown, and plums.
Eyeliner on the upper lid should be a darker color than the line along the lower lid.
Blush can be almost any color as long as it coordinates with the color of your lipstick. It must be blended on softly, without any noticeable edges.
To create a tanned appearance, use some golden brown and chestnut shades for your blush, eyeshadows, contour, and lipstick. Never and I mean never apply a foundation or bronzer all over your face if it leaves a line of demarcation at the jaw or hairline.
If your clothes are red or pink, match your lipstick with them. Just don’t clash the color tones. That would be tacky. If what you are wearing is peach or coral, your blush and lipstick should have that same underlying color or be a neutral tone.
Never ignore your own preferences just because your favorite celebrity chooses a style you don’t like. They key is to be comfortable with your own style and not anyone else’s. If you love a certain look, give it a shot and ask for feedback from close friends.

When a surgeon looks at a man’s face, he sees more than facial quality and structure. He examines the neck and the hairline, the eyes and the nose. He studies the pattern of the sideburns and the extent of beard growth. These factors are important in helping the doctor decide on the best approach for improving your face.
Plastic surgeons do both major surgery and less invasive procedures for revitalizing the face. The less-invasive procedures have two advantages over surgery: lower cost, and faster healing time.
The procedures include injections and low-energy lasers and some examples are:
· Botox® – a drug injected into the skin to reduce and smooth wrinkles, lines, forehead furrows, and crow’s feet.· Collagen – a soft tissue filler, and a fibrous protein found naturally in skin, bone, cartilage, tendon, and connective tissue. Collagen gives our skin its strength and elasticity. Plastic surgeons inject collagen into the face, lips, and hands. Other fillers are hyaluronic acid and polylactic acid.· Microdermabrasion – uses particles of aluminum oxide to remove the outer layers of skin. This is effective in smoothing facial lines and wrinkles. And it works well on crow’s feet, age spots, and acne scars.· Laser hair removal – uses low-energy lasers to disable hair follicles.· Chemical peel -- which applies a chemical solution to the skin, is effective on sun-damaged skin, facial wrinkles, and acne scars.· Laser skin resurfacing – takes care of facial wrinkles and lines, sun-damaged skin, blotches, and brown spots.
Today, plastic surgeons have many procedures to treat their male patients. Men, like women, want to look their best. By changing a man’s body structure and rejuvenating his skin, cosmetic surgery can improve his appearance. Cosmetic procedures are a safe and effective way for a man to have a more healthy and youthful appearance—regardless of age.
