Water and its role.Before
taking the advantages by adding outer supplements to our body, we should
know that all the great skin begins from within. And that means drinking a
lot of water..hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! This is one secret of
Scandinavian women, who live in the northern family of Germanic languages
.They drink at least 1.5 liters of spring water everyday but they also begin
and end their day with 15-20 splashes of spring water on their face. This
helps to encourage the skin's own natural functions, so it regulates itself
without the aid of expensive exfoliating and rejuvenating lotions." The
ice-cold water helps to reduce puffiness as well. Most of the beauticians use
the Evian spray on clients not only to refresh them but it's a secret to
setting makeup!
Cucumber.. We know
the benefits of cucumbers for reducing puffiness around your eyes.and in case
you don't know, just slice a few and lay them on your eyes for a few minutes.
Chamomile tea bags are the another alternatives. Just steep
the tea bags for a few minutes and let them cool. This is a quick trick
many beauticians use on celebs like Alec Baldwin. Place each bag over the
eye and relax for a few minutes.Take them off and walla your puffiness is gone!
Avocado Masks...
As we get older and work in air conditioned environments we tend to have dry
skin. Avocado Masks are great to soften and soothe dry
skin. This will be your best friend if you have dry skin. Mash an
avocado, California avocados are the best because of their higher oil content,
and add a little plain yogurt to cool and sooth the skin. Brush the
masque on your face and chill out for about 20 minutes. Rinse off and
feel how soft your skin will be. Avocados are very rich in oils. In
fact, avocado oil is great for the nails and cuticles. I always tell
women who have just taken off their acrylic nails to use avocado oil on their
cuticles every night to strengthen their nail bed. It makes a huge
difference!
