Menopause plus Skin Care

 

 

I have to admit I have a few years yet, but before you know it will be here. What will be here? Menopause!!!

Hormones play an important role in skin health. Lower levels of estrogen at menopause contribute to loosing skin collagen, which is more rapid in the years right after menopause. Your skin also develops some slight sags and wrinkles and skin becomes drier. So what can you do to help keep skin better during these times?


The use of sunscreen
Exposure to sunlight causes skin to age and is responsible for variations in pigmentation (skin color). Because aging skin is more prone to sun damage (including skin cancer), use of a good sunscreen is important. Avoid tanning. There’s no such thing as a “healthy tan" tanned skin means that skin is damaged.

Don’t smoke or drink alcohol!In smokers, the effects of aging on the skin are more pronounced. Long-time smokers have more skin damage, particularly wrinkles around the lips and dark circles under the eyes. Maintaining skin health is another good reason not to smoke. Alcohol dehydrates your skin from the inside out.


Practice healthy habits
• Avoiding stress and getting enough exercise and sleep enough appr 7 hours daily
• Drinking plenty of water helps keep skin hydrated and organs working properly

• Limiting coffee, tea, soft drinks, and alcohol because they decrease hydration

• Avoiding hot, soapy showers and baths to prevent dry skin. Lotion it up right after.

 

Most importantly eat healthier. Add more fruits and vegetables daily. Exercise daily atleast 30 min walk is better than nothing...Keep healthy and enjoy LIFE

 

 

Thank you,

 

A little inspiration to you from me...

 

 

Sometimes we wake up feeling down or even throughout the day some unwelcome emotions might get the best of us. I want you to know that I also go through those feelings, but I have no choice to perk myself up. You may also not believe in yourself when you are trying to do a project but I want to tell you don't give up! Believe in yourself and go for whatever you want. We are all amazing.

 

Smile it can change your mood.

Thank you,

Cleansing your facial PORES at home



Cleaning and opening your pores is the best way to prevent dirt, acne and infections that can occur on your face. Gentle steam also removes toxins, makeup and dead cells. It also circulates your blood flow and that gives you the glowing look. These are the benefits and this process is easy to do and can be done in the comfort of your own home.

I can help you get started:

Heat a pan of distilled water until a boil then remove it from stove. Put your face right over the steam a little at a time. If it's to hot push back a little until you can bear it. Steam for about ten min and the sweating is what is releasing from the pores.

Warnings:
Do not over heat your skin. It can cause burns and broken capillaries.

You can follow with a toner to close pores and your favorite moitorizer. Enjoy this moment of me times. You will feel so new and refreshed. Keep beautiful and come back for more beauty tips.


Thank you,
