Prevent dry skin this winter! (woensdag 17 november 2010 / 15:19)
Hey everyone,
Now the weather is getting colder our skin becomes dry very easily. Some people have extremely dry skin and that may be because you are using a wrong product for your skin type. Elene Capo of NYC's Cowshed Spa has a few tips on how you can prevent dry skin from happening in the first place.
1. Don't flake on moisturizing products: Try creamy cleansers, serums, and daily moisturizers.
2. Hold the retinol: "Some women like to retinol as an antiaging cream, but in a lot of cases, it tends to make your skin sensitive and flaky," Elena explains
3. Hydrate from within: As always, drink plenty of water.
4. Oil up: Fish oil, evening primrose oil, and flaxseed oil can each help combat dryness.
5. What to avoid: To prevent irritation, stay away from artificially fragrant products and hot showers.
Good luck!

Clean skin = Beautiful, Glowing Skin ! (zaterdag 30 oktober 2010 / 11:59)
Hey Everyone,

Wanna keep your skin clear and beautiful? You'll need to have a skin-care routine for that. Here are some tips & tricks for you!
1) Always remove your make-up before you go to bed. Use a cotton pad with special make-up remover. This can be a make-up remover with oil, lotion or milk. Put a milk face cleanser all over your face and after a few minutes you'll remove this with a tonic or lotion.
2) Put a tube/bottle of facewash in your shower/bathroom. So that every time you take a shower, you can cleanse your face too!
3) It's very important to exfoliate your face at least once a week. If you've got oily skin, you might do this 2 and maybe 3 times per week. Always use a facescrub, NOT a bodyscrub because that's way to harsh for your face! It might even damage your face...
4) Use a mask once per week. Just to relaxxx and it's good for your skin. There are masks for every skin type; as in hydrating masks for the dry skin and purifying masks for the oily skin.
5) And lost but not least, use a day- and night cream that suits your skin type. You've got a wide selection of the day- and night creams. Such as creams for the oily, dry, combination, sensitive and mature skin.
Of course it's not enough to only have a skin-care routine. It's important to eat healthy, get enough sleep (at least 8 hours a day!), drink plenty of water, wear sunscreen, cut out skin-damaging habits etc.
