Getting A Gorgeous Skin The Natural Way by OMOSOFEF: 12:57pm On Jul 23, 2011
The amount of money consumed by beauty industry is colossal

Looking beautiful should be the concern of every mortal. The lady

in the house are in the best position to bear me out on this

The first step : Knowing your skin type

You can't take of your skin adequately by the use chemicals or herbs

unless you know the type of skin you have. Let's see the simple bed

side test you can carry out to determine the type of skin you have:
Different skin types require different management modalities!
In the days of yore, the skin was never classified and all skin was considered normal.

Research and improved knowledge have however shown that skins are different and this explains why one beauty product will work beautifully for one skin and not for the other.
Indeed, we have come a long way from ass’s milk, rose water and jelly as all in all for beauty therapy.

The wish of every woman is to be beautiful.

Even as a toddler waddling around in pinafore, a girl cannot but stop to look herself up in the mirror. That’s to show how much we cherish our skin .To be beautiful is the desire of every mortal. The way out is the confusing part.
Don’t ever think beauty is unattainable.

For a dazzling skin and velvety look the very first step in beautifying yourself is to know about your skin.
You should know the type of skin you have. It is very important.

A good knowledge of your skin will help you choose the right product, be it natural or synthetic and it will also make you more alert on the different ways of caring for your skin.

Identifying your skin type

Determining your skin type is not rocket science. It is a simple task that can be carried out within minutes. Below are the known skin types:

• Normal skin type
• Oily skin type
• Dry skin
• Combination of dry and oily skin
• Sensitive skin.



Determining the skin type is again very easy.
Wash your face after waking up in the morning then wait for between 30 minutes and one hour.
Gently apply tissue paper on your face and hold it for a while,
Take a look at the point of oil stain on the tissue.

If yours is a normal skin it will be clear and pimples free, soft, very smooth without any flaky or greasy area.

The oily skin will stain the tissue with oil in the nose, fore head and the cheek parts and this will be seen as transparent spots.
The combined skin will only stain the tissue centrally at the fore head and the nose and does not stain from the cheek forming the classical- T- zone.
Dry Skin will not stain the tissue.
The sensitive skin is usually tight and blotchy and reacts to new skin-care by becoming red, inflamed and itchy.


I shall continue later

Mother nature is the answer to beautiful skin

Fruits

Honey

milk

yoghurts

water

egg

other condiments

These are some of the stuffs needed to make you beautiful.

If you think you have natural skin from the above test do the following

1 Drink a lot of water to keep your skin moisturized

2 Avoid exposure to sun. The ultraviolet rays are not skin friendly

3 Have at least 8 hours of rest

4 Eat fruits and vegetable
Re: Getting A Gorgeous Skin The Natural Way by TheBBF(f): 2:27pm On Jul 29, 2011
I agree! a yougurt and honey mask does wonders for your skin!
Re: Getting A Gorgeous Skin The Natural Way by iice(f): 5:50pm On Jul 29, 2011
Always knew i was missing some nuts up there grin
Please not all of us, stop to use mirror. Once a day before going out, is enough cheesy
But i do love gorgeous skin. Like seeing people with great skin.
Errhhh i'm usually exposed to the sun since i tend to plop on the beach alot.
Aside from sunblock thingies. . .what else do you recommend? I do the water, fruits and vegs. Can't escape that considering my mother is a health freak tongue

If you know that you have oily skin, consider the points below

Causes of Oily Skin
• Heredity
• Diet
• Hormone levels
• Pregnancy
• Birth control pills
• Cosmetics you use
• Humidity and hot weather
Oily skin tend to be common among the teenagers because of the hormonal interplay
at that age. It is common among the general population, where
it can occur at any age.
In general, skin tends to become dryer with age.
The flow of sebum or oil increases during adolescence and starts decreasing with age.
During pregnancy and menopause, hormonal imbalances can also upset the oil balance and increase the activity of sebaceous glands.
If the oil is not from the entire face but from parts of the face it is called the combination skin.

Skin Care for Oily Skin
The great advantage of oily skin is that it ages at a slower rate than other skin types.

• Prevent the pores from being clogged by using plenty of hot water and soap . Avoid harsh products that strip your skin of oil and encourage flakiness.

They can cause a reaction known as reactive seborrhoea, where the oil glands work overtime to compensate for the loss of natural oils.

• Avoid skincare products that leave your skin feeling taut and dehydrated. They cause the upper layers of the skin to shrink. This restricts oil flow through the pores leading to blockages and breakouts.

• To cleanse oily skin, use oil-based products as they dissolve sebum effectively. Opt for oil-free natural moisturizers to maintain a shine-free complexion.


• Keep your skin very clean. Limit washing your face to two or three times a day. Too much washing will stimulate your skin to produce more oil.

• Avoid the use of harsh soaps or cleansers. Use a pure soap with no artificial additives. Try an antibacterial cleansing lotion or a lightly medicated soap, and use it in combination with a water rich in minerals, not tap water. Do not use cleansers or lotions that contain alcohol. After cleansing, apply a natural oil-free moisturizer to keep the skin supple.


• Use hot water when washing your face. Hot water dissolves skin oil better than lukewarm or cold water.

If your skin is extremely oily, three or four daily cleansings may be in order and little or no moisturizing necessary before you are 30 years old.

After that point, the skin around your eyes and mouth and on your throat may benefit from a nightly moisturizing, plus a mere touch of moisturizer in the morning.

When cleansing, massage your face well with your fingertips, using an upward and outward motion. Be careful not to rub soap into the skin; it can clog pores.

If your oily skin is scaly, you can often correct the problem by using a

deep-cleaning exfoliant on alternate nights, and following the treatment with a light coating of moisturizer.

HOME REMEDY FOR OILY SKIN

There are a number of home condiments and stuff that can be juggled together
to bring youthfulness to your skin. www.skinrepairer..com has all you need to smothen all skin type. For today let's get to the kitchen:

1 Take some small pieces of papaya, watermelon and apple. Make paste of them and apply it on your face. Leave it for 15mins and wash it with normal cold water


2 Apply tomatoes paste for 15 minutes on the face and then rinse with cool water.

3 Make paste out of half teaspoon honey and egg white and one teaspoon lemon juice. To

This Paste add either brewer’s yeast or fuller’s earth powder. Apply over the face and wash it with water after twenty minutes.

4 Prepare a batter of one egg white, one teaspoon camphor, one heaping tablespoon of skim milk powder and a drop of essential oil of mint.
Keep this mixture aside. Primarily apply a coat of odorless castor oil to the skin and then it has to be followed by a thick layer of the egg white mask
Remain the same for fifteen minutes and then wash it with warm water and then rinse it with apple cider vinegar and water solution or even with hazel.

5 Apply the mixture of one tablespoon of yoghurt to fuller’s earth. Yoghurt is considered to be of great use as it softens the skin and also help to regain the natural acid mantle.


6 Make a paste out of lemon juice and little milk to oatmeal.
Apply it and keep for twenty minutes and wash it with water. But see to it that there are no Eruptions as lemon juice could produce some irritation.


7 For the oily skin, the best is to use clay mask.

8 Papaya is considered wonderful for oily skin as the application of the pulp over the skin has wonderful effects on the skin.
It is considered to have wonderful properties of cleansing action, softening dead skin cells and their removal.

Diet for Oily Skin

Take a diet rich in proteins but restricted in sugar, and salt.
Take plenty of leafy green vegetables and fresh fruits.
Vitamins, iron and similar substances
Deficiency in vitamin B2 can cause oily skin. Nutritional yeast, wheat germ and organ meats provide both vitamin B5 and vitamin B2.
You can get vitamin B2 from whole grains, beans, nuts, and royal jelly. Buckwheat, black beans and whole rice are excellent to supply the body with iron and rejuvenate pate skin.
Drink plenty of quality water to keep the skin hydrated and flush out toxins.
Reduce fat intake. Avoid pork, fried and highly seasoned foods. Consume no animal fats, or heat-processed vegetable oils.
Do not cook with oil. Do not eat any oils that have been subjected to heat, whether in processing or cooking. If a little oil is necessary, such as in salad dressing, use cold-pressed canola or olive oil only.
Do not drink soft drinks or alcoholic beverages. Avoid sugar, chocolate, and junk food.



\








Herbs for Oily Skin
Aloe Vera has excellent healing properties. Apply aloe vera gel topically, as needed.
Burdock root, chamomile, horsetail, oat straw, and thyme nourish the skin.
Lavender is very good for oily skin. Mist your skin with lavender water several times daily
