Ayurvedic Weight Loss Remedies- Detoxifying/Colon Cleansing Diet For Weight
2008-05-08 08:11:00
Weight Loss Remedies? I never thought I would be writing about it . You guys won't believe how skinny I was until recently. Its been around a year since I started putting on weight specially on my face and belly. Since then I have been searching for fat loss recipes, specific exercises for fat loss, informational sites, blogs and e-books related to weight loss. I was on a Crash Diet for sometime but it had an adverse effect on my health, I tried exercises , I did almost everything but all in vain.After going through Fat Loss Secret by Dr. Suzanne Gudakunst I realized what I was missing out on. Believe me I have already started to see the difference . I felt uncomfortable for the first 3-4 days but I have already lost a significant amount of weight and I feel active and fresh most of the time. I even signed up as an affiliate . She has explained everything in detail, what kind of food for a specific body type, herbs and natural ingredients for detoxification, proper food combination...

Book Review- Don't Go To The Cosmetics Counter Without Me By Paula Begoun
2008-03-29 10:39:00
I have been reading this book called Don't Go To The Cosmetics Counter Without Me By Paula Begoun(7th Edition) and I must tell you its a wonderful book.Paula has reviewed more than 3000 products ( almost all the big brands in the market). She has listed why she likes a particular product and why she doesn't like it.She reviews products based on the claims made by the brands versus how it works(she goes by labeling). Ingredients listed on the labels help her review the products because its definitely not possible to use each and every product for reviewing them.Paula is very particular about these points-#She says every brand should have products with AHAs and BHAs for blemished prone skin.# She says skin whitening creams and gels in jars are of no use because most of the ingredients used in the skin whitening/lightening creams are sensitive to air and light so these products have to be packed in an air-tight, dark colored container.# She is completely against using soaps and bars ...

Papaya, Pumpkin and Pineapple Skin Whitening Face Pack
2008-03-28 10:36:00
Skin Whitening/Lightening grabs a big chunk in this $45 Billion Beauty Industry. There are loads of products available in the market which help you get lighter complexion. There are some which just don't work(they are there for the name sake and are loaded with harsh chemicals) and there are some which might work. I have never tried any whitening cream so I am not the right person to comment on it.If you ask me about skin lightening remedies I will just be able to help you out with my own home remedies which I think are much safer and effective ones.What are the ingredients used in most of the fairness/whitening/lightening creams, lotions and serums?The most common ingredients are Kojic Acid, Hydroquinone, Licorice, Glycolic Acid, Arbutin and Fruit Enzymes.Most of these acids and enzymes are found in fruits like Pineapple , Bearberry, Blueberry, Cranberry, Papaya, Pumpkin etc.You can make your own Skin Whitening Recipe at home.

Bitter Truth About Parabens
2008-02-11 13:39:00
Parabens are chemical preservatives which are used in cosmetics and skin care products. It extends the shelf life of the products by fighting against germs and bacteria.The truth is something else. Paraben can cause Breast Cancer and can damage skin tissue in the long run. Methylparaben, Ethylparaben, Propylparaben and Butylparaben are the types of Paraben you'll find on your products' ingredients label. And don't get surprised if you find Parabens on your skincare label(even if they say its natural and organic) except for a few companies which use Natural Preservatives.So always go for paraben free products.These are the SkinCare Brands that do not use Parabens: Stem Organics Lavera

Finally, I tried it and loved the result.Syence Skin Care was really generous to send me their products worth more than $350 two weeks back. I am so excited to write this review because I had an unforgettable experience with this product called SkinVenom. When I received the products ( Skin Venom, Servital Active Defense and some more samples ) I was so excited and I told my hubby about it. His first reaction was "Are you out of your mind? You must be nuts if you think Snake Venom's gonna make your skin look beautiful. This could be poisonous and may harm your skin. You are not gonna use it, period." That was not what I expected from him and was really upset but didn't bother much because I had made up my mind that I wo...

Watermelon is an amazing fruit which can do wonders for your skin. I don't like to eat Watermelon but I definitely can't afford to ignore its amazing properties for healthy skin.

Watermelon improves skin elasticity and firmness, hydrates your skin, keeps it cool and fresh and gives you a glowing skin. So why not compromise a bit?You can include it in your daily diet and see a great result. That doesn't apply to me so I use this Face Pack /Toner sometimes.You just need 2 ingredients for this recipe:6 Tbsp Fresh Watermelon Juice1 Tbsp HoneyMix Watermelon and honey and apply on your face and neck.

Review Of SkinFree Body Balm and Soap

Skinfree offers a product called Super Moisture Body Balm which is good for dry and dehydrated skin. Super Moisture Body Balm is rich in butters and natural oils selected for their healing and emollient properties. Its really good for Eczema, Psoriasis, Wrinkles and Stretch Marks. I could feel the difference in just 3 days. In winter, my skin feels stretched if not moisturized well but this product is amazing.You should also try their Extra Moisturizing Soap which is very different from other soaps. Normal soap takes out oil from your skin but this soap is so soothing and moisturizing. I never use soap on my skin but I had heard that this is something different so I tried it out and I was happy with the result.They"superfat"their soap with extra virgin olive oil, which contains natural anti-inflammatory agents, anti-oxidants, and natural vitamins that aid in healing and soothing your skin.

Coastal Scents offer you a wide range of Mineral Make-Up ,Spa and Aromatherapy Products. My Skin is normal to dry and I had never tried Powder Foundation Before(I always go for liquid foundation) and was a bit scared to try their powder foundation thinking that my skin would become dry. But it was absolutely light and comfortable and my skin didn't feel dry at all. I applied their Silk Cover Light 1.2 Mineral Foundation, Sassy Blush, combination of Frenzy and Moroccan Eye Shadows and their 50's Twist Glossi Glaze (On some photos I have applied Loreal Soft Mauve Gloss on top of Glossi Glaze to experiment).

Snake Venom- The Latest Anti-Aging Discovery
2007-11-20 20:54:00
A little off- topic today. I just wanted to share this small piece of news with you.Was really curious about it and wanted to know if anyone has tried it. Snake Venom is the latest buzz in Anti -Aging SkinCare. I don know whether to believe it or not but Gwyneth Paltrow swears by it. She uses Snake Venom to De-wrinkle and stay young. I have always liked her but didn't know the Deadly Secret behind her Wonderful Skin. Products like UltraLuxe and Viprodex are supoposed to be doing really great but they are difficult to find. Even the Celebrities are on a waiting list it seems. I dunno exactly how it works but the enzymes in the Venom kind of paralyze the skin and prevent wrinkles and fine lines. I don think I’m gonna try it but if ever I do I’ll definitely write a review about it. Has anyone tried Snake Venom? Do you think its better than Botox ?
