<p>Microneedling is an amazing relatively-new treatment that takes skincare very seriously.</p>
<p>This treatment takes a roller made up of small needles and uses it as a way to prick the skin which in turn, stimulates collagen production, which in contrast improves skin health, helps heal scars, and reduces signs of aging.</p>
<p>PRP aka Plasma-rich platelets uses your own blood as a way to rejuvenate the skin, which is why some people refer to this treatment as “vampire facials”, here we will show you everything you need to know about it before getting yourself treated.</p>
<h2><strong>What exactly is Microneedling with PRP?</strong></h2>
<p><a href="https://www.nepenthewellness.com/prp-facials/">Microneedling with PRP</a> or “vampire facial” is a cosmetic treatment designed to help skin health by stimulating collagen production by using a roller with tiny needles over the skin to apply platelets, the main component in blood.</p>
<p>So, in order to get the necessary PRP for this treatment, the specialist takes a blood sample (from the patient), then proceeds to use a centrifuge, which is a kind of spinning tool, so the PRP can get separated from the rest of the blood sample.</p>
<p>Once the specialist has separated the plasma from your blood, they will proceed to use the roller with needles (usually referred to as a “microneedling tool”) to prick the skin and make tiny holes which then will be filled with the PRP to help and encourage collagen production.</p>
<p>Sounds simple enough, right?</p>
<h2><strong>Benefits of having Microneedling with PRP?</strong></h2>
<p>There are many benefits of having this treatment as a way to take care of your skin.</p>
<p>A <a href="https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/jocd.12207">study from 2016</a> showed that microneedling with distilled water can actually help people with acne scars by 45.84% while microneedling with PRP helped improve acne scars by 62.20% and any of the patients reported lasting side effects.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.jaad.org/article/S0190-9622(18)32955-4/fulltext">Another study from</a> 2019 showed similar results when applying PRP to a microneedling treatment and it came to the conclusion that:</p>
<ul>
<li>It helps improve acne scarring (just as the previous study also showed)</li>
<li>Provided a better patient satisfaction when it came to the results</li>
<li>Decreased the downtime that patients used to need after getting themselves treated.</li>
</ul>
<p>This not only helps improve acne scars but also helps heal larger scars and burns, but it takes longer to actually show results.</p>
<p>Sometimes (especially when applying the treatment to slow signs of aging) patients keep seeing results even weeks after their first treatment as the body takes time to produce collagen.</p>
<p>Patients <a href="https://www.aad.org/diseases/acne/acne-scars-treatment">tend to respond well to microneedling treatments</a> so they don’t need that much recovery. They just have to be careful to choose a professional wellness center, just as <a href="https://www.nepenthewellness.com/">Nepenthe Wellness Center</a>.</p>
<h2><strong>Microneedling with PRP FAQs.</strong></h2>
<h3>Is microneedling with PRP worth it?</h3>
<p>The downsides are minimal and the results are visible enough. If you want to slow signs of aging, improve your scars, and take care of your skin, then this treatment will do wonders for you.</p>
<p>You just have to be careful as this treatment might be dangerous for people who have:</p>
<ul>
<li>HIV</li>
<li>Active acne.</li>
<li>Skin Conditions.</li>
<li>History of scarring easily.</li>
</ul>
<p>If you are unsure, please contact your doctor first.</p>
<h3>How long does Microneedling with PRP last?</h3>
<p>Depending on what kind of treatment and how many times you got it, you might see your results up to a year after your treatment.</p>
<p>Just bear in mind that sometimes your treatment will still be working even after weeks of getting microneedling yourself.</p>Mistakes to Avoid If You’re Wearing Bracestag:skincareprofessionals.com,2020-03-19:6332291:BlogPost:2490702020-03-19T07:58:02.000ZHelen Bradfordhttps://skincareprofessionals.com/profile/HelenBradford

<p></p>
<p>Having trouble with an overbite, or misaligned teeth will eventually lead to you wearing braces. As soon as you or your orthodontist detect the problem, you should be on your way to get braces and start wearing them for as long as necessary. However, just wearing braces isn't enough. You'll also have to take care of it properly and make sure to avoid several very common mistakes many people make. This is the only way you'll make the process of wearing braces as short as possible and the treatment fully successful.</p>
<h2>Not choosing your foods</h2>
<p>Sticky foods chock-full of sugar are never a good idea for either your teeth or your overall health. This is especially true if you're wearing braces. Hard and sticky foods will easily attach to the wires of your braces making it nearly impossible for you to clean them afterward when you go brush your teeth. Avoid candy, nuts and crunchy foods such as raw vegetables. Don't risk breaking the braces just because you're craving chips, corn, kennels, or gummy candy. Instead of having large chunks of food, start chopping your food into very small pieces. The smaller the bites, the less damage you'll potentially make to your braces. Some of the <a href="https://www.healthline.com/health/what-can-you-eat-with-braces">foods that you should steer clear of</a> are caramels, chewy sweets, and anything gummy. Caramel is super sticky and it will be virtually irritable to clean every small bracket afterward because it attaches very easily but won't come off as smoothly. Aside from sticking to your teeth, chewy sweets can also cause braces to become loose after all the chewing that's required to properly eat them. Scrambled eggs, oatmeal and grains are some of the recommended foods for everyone who is wearing braces.</p>
<h2>Brushing infrequently</h2>
<p>You know how every orthodontist suggests we brush our teeth after each meal, right? Well, for those wearing braces this is especially important because they will have more gaps where food can get stuck. Not to mention the unsightly look you'll have if the food is sticking out of your wires. That's why you should always have your toothbrush with you and make sure you clean your braces whilst brushing your teeth thoroughly after every light snack. Not having proper oral hygiene can also cause serious gum infections, so it’s imperative that you take good care of your oral hygiene always. You should brush and floss 30 minutes after having sweets or any other kind of food. Rinse your mouth with water shortly after indulging a meal, but wait for at least half an hour before you grab your toothbrush, to prevent the acids from the food from wreaking havoc on your tooth enamel. </p>
<h2>Skipping dental appointments</h2>
<p>One of the most common mistakes people make when they start wearing braces is not visiting their orthodontists regularly. Your orthodontist must follow the progress of your teeth alignment in order to know whether your condition is getting better or not. That’s why you should visit your orthodontist regularly and feel free to contact <a href="https://www.terrigaldental.com.au/services/orthodontics/">Terrigal Dental</a> if you have any questions or want to schedule your appointment. The orthodontist needs to check your teeth after every milestone, and regardless of you wearing brackets or aligners, every appointment will bring you one step closer to your goal. Brackets, for example, require regular tightening when the time is right so that your teeth can gradually move to the proper position. On the other hand, if you're wearing aligners, they’ll need to be switched out at certain points too. Skipping your appointments can only lead to you wearing braces even longer than originally predicted. Visiting your dentist once a month or as many times as they suggest should not be negotiable if you want to have perfectly straight teeth.</p>
<h2>Not taking your treatment seriously</h2>
<p>A perfect smile requires much more than simply wearing braces. If your orthodontist also prescribes elastic bands, you should not try to skip on wearing them, but follow the doctor's orders. The reason behind wearing the bands is to speed up the straightening process. Don't risk slowing down the process of aligning your teeth by removing those bands. Not only can you risk delaying <a href="https://www.wikihow.com/Prepare-for-Getting-Braces-Removed">the braces removal</a>, but you can also injure your mouth or the braces themselves just because you refused to wear them. Being disciplined is one of the most important qualities a person can have on their way to straighter teeth. If your braces treatment has come to an end, you should still wear the retainer. You shouldn’t risk having your teeth go back to the same position and undergo the treatment all over again.</p>
<h2>Final thoughts</h2>
<p>Discipline is of great importance when it comes to wearing braces. This is precisely why you must be ready to follow all the rules your orthodontist instructs you with if you want to have healthy and straight teeth soon. Brush regularly, avoid sticky foods, schedule regular appointments and be sure to take the treatment seriously for your own good.</p>How to Build a Personalized Skincare Ritualtag:skincareprofessionals.com,2020-01-28:6332291:BlogPost:2487182020-01-28T15:27:44.000ZHelen Bradfordhttps://skincareprofessionals.com/profile/HelenBradford

<p>Taking proper care of their skin is the majority of ladies’ top priority, and if you’re one of those women who always loved to pamper their skin – welcome to the club, you’re at the right place! Here are some useful tips on how to build a personalized skincare ritual, so check them out and get down to business!</p>
<p> </p>
<h2>Skincare rituals for dry skin</h2>
<p>Needless to say, your skincare ritual needs to be tailored according to your skin type, so start from there and identify your skin type if you already haven’t. For example, ladies with dry skin should look for moisturizing products that work for sensitive skin, which should be your first step, too. Hydrating creams with thick texture are always a good choice, as well as products that contain hyaluronic acid – an ingredient responsible for maintaining your skin’s moisture levels and plumpness. The best thing about hyaluronic acid is the fact that it naturally occurs in the human body, which means that it’ll help your skin cells retain as much moisture as possible, without compromising its overall health.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As for the ingredients you should avoid, alcohol and fragrances are in the first place on our list as these can be extremely irritating for people with dry skin. In fact, these can dry out their skin even more, which often results in dry patches, flakiness, and a lifeless appearance. Instead, choose cleansing products and toners that contain organic <span><a href="https://www.prevention.com/beauty/skin-care/a25995450/aloe-vera-benefits-for-skin/"><u>aloe vera</u></a></span> – a powerful plant that contains soothing and hydrating properties that can give your skin a boost of nourishment. Serums are also a fantastic choice as these are formulated to improve your skin’s elasticity, radiance, and firmness while providing moisture at the same time, so give them a try and you won’t make a mistake!</p>
<p> </p>
<h2>Skincare rituals for oily skin</h2>
<p>On the other hand, your skincare ritual should differ significantly from the previous one if you have oily skin. This skin type requires a much different approach, and the first thing you should know is that your skincare products based on oil need to go. These are a huge no-no when it comes to oily skin simply because they can clog your pores and therefore wreak havoc on your skin. So, instead, of oil-based products, you should opt for lightweight, oil-free ones that won’t trigger your skin to produce even more oil. This is particularly true if you suffer from acne and dull skin, which is why you need to pick products with ingredients that get rid of excess oils.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>For example, there are <span><a href="https://www.jessicacosmetics.com.au/"><u>amazing cosmetic products</u></a></span> based on Himalayan fossil salt – a very powerful natural element that has anti-microbial and purifying properties. It can deeply cleanse and hydrate your skin while absorbing dirt, toxins, and grime at the same time. Did you know that this ingredient also contains 84 mineral trace elements that can promote the overall well-being and health of your skin? That’s right, which is exactly why you should give it a fair shot. This beneficial ingredient is known for fighting acne and reducing skin infections, too, which makes it beyond great for people with oily skin prone to acne!</p>
<p> </p>
<h2>Skincare rituals for combination skin</h2>
<p>Last but certainly not least, there is combination skin type which, as its name clearly states, combines the previous two types – dry skin and oily one. Even though it probably seems quite challenging, the truth is that putting together an effective skincare ritual for combination skin doesn’t have to be like that at all. Firstly, you should watch for gentle, non-irritating formulas that won’t cause any potential skin issues. Organic skincare products are probably the best possible choice as these work for all skin types, so don’t wait any longer and try them out.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Gentle cleansers without drying ingredients are also a good option since they get rid of the impurities without irritating the skin and stripping it of its natural oils. If you have an oily T-zone, you should <span><a href="https://www.marieclaire.co.uk/beauty/skincare/best-toner-24628"><u>opt for a toner</u></a></span> that will remove the shine and help your skin look balanced throughout the day. Mattifying toners usually have oil-controlling properties – they won’t let your T-zone become too oily and shiny. On the other hand, your dry cheeks and chin will need extra nourishment and care, so opt for a hydrating moisturizer or a lightweight yet concentrated serum and you won’t regret it!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As you can see, building a personalized skincare ritual doesn’t have to be as tricky as you probably thought. Of course, the first thing you should bear in mind is your skin type. Once you’ve figured it out, just stick to our tips and you’ll do a great job. That’s a promise!</p>Why You Should Consider Adding Sugaring to Your Spa Menutag:skincareprofessionals.com,2020-01-27:6332291:BlogPost:2487142020-01-27T01:10:58.000ZChelsea Bensonhttps://skincareprofessionals.com/profile/ChelseaBenson
<p>Hi everyone, </p>
<p>I noticed that this topic hasn't been discussed in a while, so I wanted to bring it up again. Have all the waxers out there considered offering sugaring to your clients?</p>
<p></p>
<p>I have found there to be many benefits to sugaring, both for clients and for myself. </p>
<p></p>

<p>Hi everyone, </p>
<p>I noticed that this topic hasn't been discussed in a while, so I wanted to bring it up again. Have all the waxers out there considered offering sugaring to your clients?</p>
<p></p>
<p>I have found there to be many benefits to sugaring, both for clients and for myself. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Clients love sugaring because:</p>
<p>1. It is all-natural. The sugaring paste consists of only lemon juice, sugar, and water. That is all. </p>
<p>2. It is more gentle. When clients are sugared they are typically less red than they would be with waxing. The sugar is incredibly gentle on the skin and while it removes dead skin cells, it does not remove any functioning skin. </p>
<p>3. The sugaring paste does not need to be hot. This leads to less discomfort for the client and no risk of burning the skin. </p>
<p>4. With proper technique, the hair will take even longer to grow back than it does with waxing. Removing the hair in the direction of growth reduces breakage, which also causes the client to experience fewer ingrowns. </p>
<p>5. There is way less waste. I use one pair of gloves for each appointment, and that is all the waste I produce!</p>
<p></p>
<p><a href="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/3835048406?profile=original" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/3835048406?profile=RESIZE_710x" width="350" class="align-center"/></a></p>
<p> </p>
<p>On a more selfish note, as the technician, I prefer sugaring over waxing for a few reasons. </p>
<p>1. It is easy to clean. If you get sugar on the floor or walls, wiping it with a warm cloth will easily remove it. </p>
<p>2. You can charge more. There are fewer places offering sugaring and it is considered to be higher-end than waxing, so people are willing to pay more. This combined with the fact that there isn't an abundance of salons driving the price down, leads to higher average pay. </p>
<p>3. It is fun!! It is incredibly satisfying to play with a ball of sugaring paste and to see the client's results after I finish. </p>
<p></p>
<p>I have been sugaring for many years and have tried plenty of sugaring pastes. However, I really enjoy <a href="http://www.sugarsmac.ca/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SugarSMAC's </a>paste. I find it to be really consistent and well priced. They also offer sugaring courses across Canada. I've linked their <a href="http://www.sugarsmac.ca/sugaring-courses" target="_blank" rel="noopener">sugaring courses here.</a></p>
<p></p>
<p>I'm curious to hear what everyone else feels. Are you a sugarist? Where did you take your training? What is your favourite benefit of sugaring?</p>
<p>On the flip side if you are a waxer, have you considered sugaring? Why or why not?</p>6 Tips for Helping Your Skin Survive Wintertag:skincareprofessionals.com,2019-12-25:6332291:BlogPost:2482152019-12-25T11:20:56.000ZHelen Bradfordhttps://skincareprofessionals.com/profile/HelenBradford

But just like the cold temperature will dry out the skin, so will enjoying the warm indoors. During winter, skin tends to lose water which leads to irritations and itchiness, as well as to and can also exacerbate certain conditions like psoriasis, rosacea, and dermatitis.</p>
<p>Therefore, taking care of your skin properly in winter will not only make it look great but also keep it healthy. So, here are 6 tips for helping your skin survive winter and have you look as radiant as ever. </p>
<h2><b>1.<span> </span></b><strong><b>Take shorter and lukewarm showers</b></strong></h2>
<p>Long and steamy showers feel great but they are actually not good for your skin. Hot water removes moisture and essential oils from your skin, leaving it dried out in the end. If you can’t resist a hot shower, then have a short one lasting for not more than 10 minutes and only once a day.</p>
<p>Shorter showers with lukewarm water and fragrance-free products will help keep your skin healthy and even glowing in winter. Also, when you wash your hands, use <span><a href="https://time.com/4800412/wash-hands-cold-water/"><u>lukewarm water</u></a></span> since it’s equally efficient in removing germs and it won’t dehydrate your skin.</p>
<h2><b>2.<span> </span></b><strong><b>Use moisturizing products</b></strong></h2>
<p>Winter is time to change your skincare routine and use products that don't contain alcohol and fragrances so your skin doesn't lose natural oils. During the night, it's important to use a richer moisturizer on your whole body, not just your face. Hands are all the time very exposed to the elements so use creams and ointments instead of lotions after every washing to have them retain the moisture.</p>
<p>Waterproof gloves are a great way to preserve the skin on your hands when you do house chores like cleaning or washing dishes. In the end, investing in <span><a href="https://www.utmedicalcenter.org/the-importance-of-moisturizing/"><u>quality moisturizer</u></a></span> with vitamin E and hyaluronic acid will defend your skin from pollutants and restore its hydration.</p>
<h2><b>3.<span> </span></b><strong><b>Keep exfoliating during winter</b></strong></h2>
<p><span><a href="https://www.healthline.com/health/how-to-exfoliate"><u>Exfoliation</u></a></span> brightens the skin and gives you a glowing look helping the skincare products to penetrate better. It also helps cell regeneration by removing old ones and allowing for new skin to grow, and even slow down the aging process. Once a week exfoliation of your whole body will eliminate flaking and clean your pores making your skin soft and improving the tone.</p>
<p>You can use products for exfoliation or in-shower devices that are more effective than the manual process. Moreover, using devices will also minimize cellulite and easily tend to more sensitive areas since they use gentle brushes you can use on both dry and wet skin.</p>
<h2><b>4.<span> </span></b><strong><b>Care for your lips</b></strong></h2>
<p>It matters what kind of products you use for your lips and how you treat them during winter. <span><a href="https://zuiiorganic.com/collections/lips"><u>Hydrating organic lip products</u></a></span> will add moisture and soften the skin making them look amazing. Also, these products will protect your lips from the cold wind and prevent getting them chapped which is really uncomfortable and even painful.</p>
<p>Mix coconut oil, honey, olive oil, and sugar until you get a paste you will rub on your lips and gently scrub for a couple of minutes. If you already have dry and chapped lips, put raw honey on them and cover them with plastic wrap for 15 minutes. As a natural moisturizer, honey will hydrate your lips and give them a silky feel. </p>
<h2><b>5.<span> </span></b><strong><b>Wear sunscreen</b></strong></h2>
<p>Even if it’s cold, the sun is still shining during winter and snow can reflect the rays exposing you to UVA and UVB radiation. Damaging UV rays penetrate clouds as well so put on your sunscreen product even on a dreary and darker day. Additionally, the sun is the main cause of aging signs, spots and hyperpigmentation, as well as cancer so <span><a href="https://bestlifeonline.com/wear-sunscreen-in-winter/"><u>applying SPF 15 or higher</u></a></span> is highly recommended during winter. </p>
<h2><b>6.<span> </span></b><strong><b>Eat, sleep and drink properly</b></strong></h2>
<p>While taking care of your skin from the outside will greatly help it stay healthy and radiant, you also need to pay attention to your diet. Fruits and vegetables rich with water, as well as dishes that are based on it like soups will help you replenish your electrolytes and keep you hydrated. However, drinking a sufficient amount of water during the day and avoiding salty foods will help your skin survive winter.</p>
<p><span><a href="https://www.everydayhealth.com/skin-and-beauty/amazing-reasons-to-sleep-for-skin-health.aspx"><u>Sleep</u></a></span> is another thing you should have enough in your life and at least 7-8 hours of it every night to allow your skin to regenerate. Not only will it mitigate aging signs like wrinkles, but it also gives you a healthy-looking and fresh complexion. </p>
<h2><strong><b>Lastly</b></strong></h2>
<p>Every season carries certain changes in your skincare routine that will give you healthy skin throughout the year. These 6 tips for helping your skin survive winter offer recommendations for a basic way to protect it against harsh weather and keep it nourished. But also you should find additional methods to care for your skin and have a wonderful complexion even during the low temperatures. </p>Why You Should Switch to Natural Cosmeticstag:skincareprofessionals.com,2019-11-14:6332291:BlogPost:2479162019-11-14T09:21:43.000ZEmmahttps://skincareprofessionals.com/profile/Emma711

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Whenever you read that a brand of a skin conditioner has “proprietary formulas”, this actually means that the product has synthetic colors, fragrances, and more. We use different kinds of cosmetics all the time, but many of these products are harmful because they contain substances that aren’t good for us. Even deodorants have parabens and alcohol in them, and don’t let us start on makeup! </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Moreover, buying certain products doesn’t only affect our personal health but the world around us as well. Nowadays, people are making more products that don’t include labor exploitation and that aren’t tested on animals. Also, there are 100% natural cosmetics, and we should all switch to using products of this kind. Here are the reasons why!</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Synthetic beauty products with different kinds of proprietary blends can have some quite unpleasant side effects. For instance, a lot of these iffy mixes contain parabens, and they are bad for our overall health because they act like estrogens in our body, which affects our ability to regulate the hormone. All this can lead to different health conditions, from acute irritations to breast cancer. This doesn’t happen with products that have natural preservatives.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In addition, synthetic products can cause acute skin irritations, breakouts, blemishes, rashes, and other similar conditions. However, those who</span> <a href="https://ediblebeautyaustralia.com/collections/natural-skincare"><span style="font-weight: 400;">use only natural skin care</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">products don’t face problems of this kind because natural ingredients can’t harm our skin in any way, they can only nourish it. </span></p>
<h2><b>They are more recommended during pregnancy </b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Natural cosmetics are more suitable for women who are expecting, and this is something all experts agree on. Pregnant women should be particularly careful with what they use because everything affects the baby as well, since the mother and the baby are connected during these nine months. When we use cosmetics, our skin absorbs some of the compounds and properties of these products, which all ends up in our bloodstream. This is why we should avoid parabens, fragrances and synthetic colors.</span></p>
<h2><b>You will contribute to saving the world </b></h2>
<p><b><a href="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/3712566391?profile=original" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/3712566391?profile=RESIZE_710x" class="align-full"/></a></b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It’s impossible to save the world on your own, but we can all be superheroes a little bit by choosing to buy natural, sustainably-made local products. We should always choose the ones that do not include</span> <a href="https://www.brightermonday.co.ug/blog/exploitation-at-work/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">labor exploitation</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">or testing on animals, which means we can turn to companies that advertise as sustainable. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You should be aware of the fact that beauty products rich in chemicals and synthetic blends actually end up in the air and the water. Finally, they end up polluting the ecosystem. On the other hand, natural products aren’t dangerous at all, because we return nature to nature.</span></p>
<h2><b>They are safe to use over the long term</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Natural cosmetic products are much safer to use over the long term. In fact, you can use whatever you like constantly without worrying it will irritate your skin. If you use a certain brand of natural eyeliner, your eyes will be safe no matter how much and often you use it. Also, you can use a natural moisturizer as much as you want without the risk of harming your skin in any way after a certain period of time. This is particularly great for girls and ladies who like putting a lot of makeup because they do not need to worry that their face will suffer any consequences.</span></p>
<h2><b>It’s good for the body, mind, and spirit </b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Lastly, we can also mention a spiritual reason to use only natural cosmetics. There is the</span> <a href="https://healingdeva.com/holistic-approach-healing-body-mind-soul/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">holistic approach</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">that one’s body, mind and spirit are linked together, influencing each other. They need to be in balance because this way we can self-heal. Using only natural ingredients supports the natural healing process of the skin because natural skin care products can support the skin in its ability to regenerate itself and they even help bring everything into balance.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you own mostly synthetic products, perhaps this article will make you want to throw all these blends out. The number of people going for what’s natural is increasing, and we’re trying to be as eco-friendly as we can. Just because we aren’t supermen, this doesn’t mean we can’t be some sort of superheroes by choosing cosmetics that are not just good for us, but for the environment as well. </span></p>Permanent Makeup: The Pros and Cons You Should Be Aware Oftag:skincareprofessionals.com,2019-11-04:6332291:BlogPost:2477072019-11-04T10:30:00.000ZTilly Granthttps://skincareprofessionals.com/profile/TillyGrant

<p>However, it has its advantages and disadvantages.</p>

<h2>The Pros of Permanent Makeup</h2>
<h3>Precision</h3>
<p>If you apply makeup every day, you probably know that sometimes it is just not your makeup day. Either your eyeliner is not on point or your brows look uneven, you just can’t make them look good. If you opt for permanent makeup, you don’t have to worry about this.</p>
<h3>Durability</h3>
<p>Permanent makeup is, in fact, semi-permanent, which means it fades with time. It is similar to a tattoo. Permanent makeup treatments involve the injection of the ink, but it doesn't go as deep. That is why the ink fades away with time.</p>
<p>The treatments last for a couple of years. This is a great option in case you change your mind or the trend changes. You don’t get stuck with one look forever.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.pmuhub.com/microblading">Microbladed eyebrows</a> last for 2-3 years. If done well, you will not have to bother with them every morning. There are different kinds of microblading, such as ombre brows, feather brows, microshading. Make sure you choose the one that fits you best.</p>
<p>Also, if you decide for permanent eyeliner treatment, you will have that makeup look every day for up to three years, depending on the quality of the ink. With permanent lipstick treatment, you are set for 3 to 5 years.</p>
<h3>Corrects imperfections</h3>
<p>If you are not satisfied with the shape of your lips, or you think they are too thin, permanent makeup is there to help you. Your lips will look fuller with treatments such as permanent lipstick. Thin and sparse eyebrows can be changed with microblading treatment. Also, there is a treatment called scalp micropigmentation which is very popular among balding men.</p>
<h3>Saves time</h3>
<p>You can sleep longer now, knowing that you don’t have to apply mascara every day because your eyelashes look long and thick due to lash extensions or lash lift treatment.</p>
<h3>Trendy</h3>
<p>Makeup tends to follow trends. While <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_RPss7dwU4">thin eyebrows were popular in the 90s</a>, thick and bushy brows are modern for some time now. You can get them with microblading treatments. Also, freckles seem to be fashionable and permanent makeup can provide them to the people who don’t have them.</p>

<h2>The Cons of Permanent Makeup</h2>
<h3>Risk of infections</h3>
<p>It is important to choose a good salon and an artist who works with sterile equipment and who has a lot of satisfied customers. The best way to find an artist is to ask your friends for recommendations and do thorough research online.</p>
<h3>Wrong treatment</h3>
<p>Some treatments are not suitable for all <a href="https://www.webmd.com/beauty/whats-your-skin-type#1">skin types</a>. If you have oily skin, check if the treatment you choose is right for you or you should try something else.</p>
<h3>Unsatisfying results</h3>
<p>You might not get what you hoped for. That is why it is important to research and find out everything you need to know about the treatment. Make sure you have all the information about the procedure, the aftercare and touch ups, who is it for, how to choose an artist and the cost. </p>
<h3>Hard to remove</h3>
<p>Hard and pricey, but not impossible. Certain products and lasers can remove permanent makeup in case you dislike it. Since it is not very easy and can cost more than the initial treatment, choose the artist wisely and get well informed about the healing and the aftercare.</p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>Permanent makeup has a lot of advantages and it is no wonder it’s so popular. All the risks and disadvantages of it can be avoided if you prepare and research PMU treatments beforehand and choose a good artist.</p>Style Inspiration for 2019: Bridal Jewelrytag:skincareprofessionals.com,2019-10-14:6332291:BlogPost:2475252019-10-14T20:34:50.000ZEmmahttps://skincareprofessionals.com/profile/Emma711

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The big day is approaching, and you're still uncertain about the accessories which will complete and complement your wedding dress? No worries, we got you – below we listed some of the best bridal jewelry options. Whether you're thinking about showcasing some of your heirlooms or spoiling yourself with a couple of new sparkling items for walking down the aisle, take a look at the tips we shared below first. </span></p>
<h2><b>1. White pearls</b></h2>
<p><b><a href="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/3662209629?profile=original" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/3662209629?profile=RESIZE_710x" class="align-full"/></a></b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Whoever thinks pearls are old-fashioned jewelry couldn't be more wrong. White pearls are everything one bride is – elegant, pure and beautiful. Fun and inspiring fact is that THE fashion icon Coco Chanel was never seen without her pearls, as neither was Jackie Kennedy, who used to say, "pearls are always appropriate". And she was right! Pearls are a symbol of femininity, purity and sophistication – perfect for a classy bridal look. Whether you opt for traditional, yet timeless jewelry style, or contemporary choker or similar designs, pears will indubitably fit and enhance your wedding look. Moreover, opting for pearls can spare you the troubles of mixing and matching because even if you decide for the complete set, it won't be kitschy at all! </span></p>
<h2><b>2. Hanging earrings</b></h2>
<p><b><a href="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/3662210181?profile=original" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/3662210181?profile=RESIZE_710x" class="align-full"/></a></b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Elegant hanging earrings with your hair up in a loose bun is the iconic bridal look. It doesn't matter if it's gold, silver or diamond earrings, as long as they aren't too big or too shiny, but just enough to sparkle as you turn your head – they're perfect. Hanging earrings are the best choice for brides with bandage wedding gowns, where a necklace is redundant. </span></p>
<h2><b>3. Dress ring</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Perhaps diamonds aren't necessarily girl's best friends, but they're definitely bride's besties. And what better time to shine bright like a diamond and what better excuse for costly jewelry than your own wedding day? Pick one of the amazing</span> <a href="https://www.secrets-shhh.com/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">designer dress rings</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">made for formal events such as wedding ceremonies – it will be a perfectl company to your engagement ring.</span></p>
<h2><b>4. Strand or pendant necklace </b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This is the choice you have to make according to the model of your wedding gown. If it's a strapless design, both strand or pendant options will work well, but if it's a one-shoulder dress or there are any asymmetric lines, it can be tricky, so perhaps try to keep your necklace as simple as possible or even not wear any at all. However, for a round neckline, a choker necklace is the most flattering and graceful option. </span></p>
<h2><b>5. Hair vines</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Another way to incorporate some more jewelry into your bridal look is hiding right there, in your hair! Spice up your hairstyle with one of the</span> <a href="https://www.stylecraze.com/articles/10-interesting-hair-accessoriesto-try/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">plenty modern hair accessories</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">. And sometimes the dress is just so right, that you don't need additional items to enhance it, but instead you focus on your hair. This trend is taking over the world, and it's no wonder there are myriads of bridal hair vines available with various jewels and colors combination. They're romantic, stylish and simply adorable! You could even coordinate it with your venue, for instance: hand-beaded floral accents for a backyard wedding, or contemporary metallic one for an indoors fancy reception. Or, come up with your own original design and order it – either way, this delicate and elegant addition to your big day outfit will definitely contribute to your overall look. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The most important thing about your wedding day look is that you remain faithful to yourself and rock your very own bridal style. Once you have found the wedding dress of your dreams, you are to decide on accessories and makeup. Keep in mind that less is more, but also don't be too harsh on your choices, especially when it comes to jewelry. Take note of the suggestions and ideas we shared above and prepare to be the most beautiful, elegant and radiant girl in the room. </span></p>Things You Should Know About The Cost Of Varicose Vein Surgerytag:skincareprofessionals.com,2019-10-01:6332291:BlogPost:2474342019-10-01T12:30:19.000ZAdrian Willsonhttps://skincareprofessionals.com/profile/AdrianWillson
<p style="text-align: justify;">You may know someone who frequently deals with doctors for some kind of disease. He will tell you about the number of medical procedures that you had not even heard of before. You might not have heard about most of the <strong>varicose vein treatments in SD</strong> available. Most of the doctors directly suggest for varicose vein surgery as the best possible <strong>SD varicose vein treatment</strong>.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">The cost of healthcare is the biggest concern nowadays. The cost of being healthy is very high that most of the people can’t afford to visit a doctor. But when people suffer from varicose vein disease, they need to visit the <strong>vein doctor in La Jolla</strong> for the treatment because it causes a lot of discomfort and embarrassment. And hiding it with some of the cosmetic procedures is even more costly. Cosmetic procedures solve the problem of varicose veins, but it is not permanent. Hence, visiting a <a href="https://www.veintreatmentclinic.com/locations/california/san-diego/"><strong>vein doctor La Jolla</strong></a> is more effective. It may cost you much more than cosmetic procedure but the treatment is long-lasting and very effective.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Most people make medical decisions on the basis of their cost-effectiveness. But it is harmful. It may lead to a much bigger problem for their healthcare. Most of the people avoid the disease in the initial stage and don’t visit the doctor which leads to becoming severe day by day. This is more risky and may cost you more. It’s time to be proactive and act with intelligence and common sense. Cost is the major thing to consider, but you must know everything about the varicose vein treatment SD to take the required decision. If your doctor suggests for surgery then you must ask about all the expenses before the treatment procedure starts.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Here are some important things that you should know about the cost of surgery from your doctor before the treatment:</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>Because of invasive nature, the cost of surgery is more than the other treatment methods. It needs a longer period of time to recover and sometimes the patient may not recover fully.</li>
<li>Always ask your doctor for other possible treatments because surgery is the last treatment method which is required merely for the adverse conditions of the disease. There is more than one treatment possible.</li>
<li>Varicose vein treatment is a cosmetic disease and most of the insurance policy doesn’t include cosmetic treatments in their insurance policy. These are labeled as elective procedures. You must confirm this prior.</li>
<li>Most of the treatments can proceed in the doctor’s office without any hassle and these treatments take very less amount of time for recovery. These treatments are the best option for treating your disease. These are less invasive and painless.</li>
<li>If your disease is at its initial stage then simply a few medicines can work for the treatment. You should ask your doctor about alternative medicine options.</li>
</ul>

Sydney has approximately 230 sunny days in total annually! However, that also means that our skin is more exposed to the Sun’s rays and that we need to take extra care of it to keep it nice and glowing. Plus, with all that sunshine, we need to be careful not to over-expose our skin to much sunshine, to keep it young-looking and fresh. For that young look to last, we need to keep our skin healthy, hydrated and refreshed - and here are our top tips on how to do just that!</p>
<h2><strong><b>Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize</b></strong></h2>
<p>One of the most important things to do to keep your skin glowing is to keep it moisturized. During the four seasons, the skin produces a different amount of natural oils, so keep that in mind when choosing the right moisturizing cream for your face. Rich moisturizers, something with honey, shea butter, or coconut butter base, are perfect for seasons where the air is dry and less humid. During the season with higher temperatures and high humidity, use a light day cream, and heavier, richer night cream to avoid having a thick film on your face during the day. The other way to keep your skin moisturized is to <span><a href="https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/7-health-benefits-of-water"><u>get hydrated</u></a></span>. Drinking a lot of water helps being hydrated, and that makes your skin glow. Drinking water will make your skin look fresh and glowing.</p>
<h2><strong><b>Get enough sleep</b></strong></h2>
<p>We can’t stress this enough! Get the full eight hours of sleep during the night. If you sleep less, your skin will look pale and pasty, and it will become dull and dry, causing itchiness and breakouts. If you are having difficulties falling asleep, try using lavender. Either make some tea before bed, or use essential oil. If that still didn’t help, and you didn’t quite catch enough sleep, there are some on-the-go tips you can use during your morning routine. Make some <span><a href="https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/320031.php"><u>chamomile tea</u></a></span> and use it on your under-eye region to hydrate the skin and reduce swelling. If you don’t have chamomile on hand, you can use frozen face masks to reduce swelling. A good alternative for a frozen face mask is to put wet cotton wool in the freezer and after five minutes put it on your eyes. Works like a charm!</p>
<h2><strong><b>Eat seasonal fruits and veggies</b></strong></h2>
<p>Instead of buying fruit and veggies from K-Mart and other supermarkets, take the time to go to your local farmer’s market and buy seasonal food. These foods will make your skin happy, healthy-looking and hydrated. For example, pears, apples and cranberries are perfect for moisturizing your skin. Also, Australia’s native Kakadu Plum is so full of vitamins, nutrients and antioxidants that it is effectively used to reduce signs of aging. This fruit will help produce collagen and will make your face naturally plump, so we advise to either eat it or make a face mask from this magical fruit. And beets, carrots and asparagus are naturally rich in vitamin A, which is crucial in skin cell regeneration and can greatly help to prevent wrinkling and appearance of dark spots. However, if you notice any spots that are too stubborn to go away, don’t hesitate to <span><a href="https://gsdermatology.com.au"><u>contact a dermatology clinic in Sydney</u></a></span> for a check-up. It may be nothing, but better safe than sorry!</p>
<h2><strong><b>Antioxidants for protection</b></strong></h2>
<p>Antioxidants are vital for protecting your skin, but also for making it look young! Antioxidants help produce collagen, which is the key ingredient in firmness and elasticity of your skin. Over time and as you get older, your skin will produce less and less collagen, so now is a great time to get the habit of boosting it naturally - it will come handy later on in life. Also, with dry weather approaching, you need to protect your skin from changing weather conditions, and pollution. Antioxidants can be found in green tea, so be sure to regularly make masks that contain green tea. Vitamin C is also a known antioxidant, so be sure to stock up on kale! You’ll need it.</p>
<h2><strong><b>Conclusion</b></strong></h2>
<p>Keeping your skin young and rejuvenated is not hard at all! Just get in the habit of moisturizing it and eating all the good food to help it look even better and have that glow we are all wishing for! Now that you know how to make that possible, grab your bag and go straight to the market to get all the ingredients to keep your skin glowing this season!</p>5 Beauty Benefits of Regular Exercisetag:skincareprofessionals.com,2019-08-07:6332291:BlogPost:2470482019-08-07T11:40:05.000ZHelen Bradfordhttps://skincareprofessionals.com/profile/HelenBradford

However, the benefits of this healthy activity stretch far beyond the aforementioned perks. Exercise boosts our appearance as well, and not only by helping us stay fit. If you want to find out what exactly we’re talking about, here are some of the beauty benefits regular exercise has.</p>
<h2><strong><b>Improving your shape</b></strong></h2>
<p>While beauty is not defined by shape or size, when your body is toned and firm, regardless of the size of jeans you wear, it certainly boosts your confidence and therefore your appearance as well. But if you’ve set your mind on shaving off a few pounds in order to rock that bikini with pride, all the better. Working out regularly will make you look and feel better in your skin, which is something all of us want.</p>
<h2><strong><b>Bettering your posture</b></strong></h2>
<p>If you have to sit around a lot and have a less than perfect posture, an exercise that involves a lot of stretching and muscle strengthening (such as Pilates and yoga) can help you remedy this issue. Some go as far as saying that by this, you can <span><a href="https://duskyleaf.ca/blog/why-yoga-makes-you-taller/"><u>even get an inch taller</u></a></span>! While you won’t actually be growing, stretching your muscles into the proper position and straightening your back will add to your height. So, if you’ve always wanted to be just a tad taller, exercise can help you improve your stature in the best possible way.</p>
<h2><strong><b>Making your skin glow</b></strong></h2>
<p>Throughout the past few years, the beauty industry has come to the point where the focus is finally on healthy, glowy skin. Fortunately for you, exercise can help you get there. First and foremost, exercise is known to boost circulation, meaning that all the capillaries inside your skin are going to deliver oxygen and nutrients to your cells much more efficiently. This is essential for the healing of the skin, and you will notice that your face has a healthy glow and a hint of flush, which will make you toss your blush.</p>
<h2><strong><b>Clearing your pores</b></strong></h2>
<p>Contrary to popular belief, sweat is your friend. When you’re sweating, you’re washing out all the trapped oil and dirt from deep inside your pores – which is why it is of the utmost importance that you take off all your makeup before you start your workout routine. The same goes for after breaking a sweat. If you just leave all the sweat and dirt sitting on your face, your pores are going to get clogged once again, and you don’t want to cause pimples this way. Wash your face with a mild cleanser after working out and apply a moisturizing cream. If all this sounds like a hassle to do at the gym, don’t worry, nowadays you can do basically any kind of workout with <span><a href="https://www.cyberfit.com.au/"><u>practical fitness exercise equipment</u></a></span> in your own home and do your beauty routine right after.</p>
<h2><strong><b>Reducing your stress levels</b></strong></h2>
<p>You are probably already familiar with some of the negative effects of being under too much stress. Stress affects our overall health, our immune system, our <span><a href="https://stylecaster.com/beauty/stress-effects-hair-skin/"><u>hair and skin</u></a></span> and a slew of other areas. However, stress is something that is impossible to avoid nowadays, so the best you can do is reduce and relieve it as much as you can. Fortunately, exercise is one of the best ways to help you on this front. By working out regularly, you are saving yourself from premature aging due to increased cortisol levels. Cortisol can cause the collagen in your skin to break down, so working out can actually prevent wrinkles, to put it simply. Stress can also cause acne, so lowering your stress levels and breaking a sweat to clean out those pores is ever so important to avoid that. Finally, stress can wreak havoc on your hair too. As mentioned, exercise improves your circulation and this increased blood flow stimulates your hair follicles whose growth is boosted this way.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>If you have been regularly working out, these perks come as a nice bonus for all your efforts. But if you’re still procrastinating on taking up exercise, these beauty benefits might just give you the final push that you’ve been waiting for to finally change your life. With all the physical and mental health benefits as well as beauty perks that exercise has, there is no good reason not to engage in this activity every day or at least a few times a week. Good luck!</p>What Toxic Products Actually Do to Your Skintag:skincareprofessionals.com,2019-07-26:6332291:BlogPost:2469292019-07-26T09:11:39.000ZEmmahttps://skincareprofessionals.com/profile/Emma711
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Most of us naturally turn to skincare and beauty products as soon as we enter the teen age. However, this can backfire on us, since many cosmetics and personal care items we use daily are packed with a myriad of chemicals that could be connected to a host of skin health problems. It is on you to make a decision whether and which chemicals you're willing to expose your skin to through the products you use. However, below we’ve listed the most common toxic…</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Most of us naturally turn to skincare and beauty products as soon as we enter the teen age. However, this can backfire on us, since many cosmetics and personal care items we use daily are packed with a myriad of chemicals that could be connected to a host of skin health problems. It is on you to make a decision whether and which chemicals you're willing to expose your skin to through the products you use. However, below we’ve listed the most common toxic ingredients you should stay away from. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://d10qoa1dy3vloz.cloudfront.net/resized/840x/slots-img/skiskincaremonth_banner-c-hn5rqjpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://d10qoa1dy3vloz.cloudfront.net/resized/840x/slots-img/skiskincaremonth_banner-c-hn5rqjpg?profile=RESIZE_710x" width="700" class="align-full"/></a></span></p>
<p><b>Parabens </b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">These chemical preservatives are present in a lot of personal care products, from moisturizers, through makeup, to shampoos. It depends on your skin type and sensitivity, but parabens may lead to different kinds of skin damages or health issues. Some studies show that an excessive amount of exposure to parabens may even lead to breast cancer, while others show no harm caused at all. Although opinions are widely divided when it comes to this chemical, it's safe to moderately use products that contain it or look for many alternative products without parabens. </span></p>
<p><b>Sulfates</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You probably use sulfates daily without even thinking about it. It's everywhere, especially in products such as toothpaste and cleansers, since they need an ingredient which will help with foaming. There are various types of sulfates, but the most common ones are sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) and sodium laureth sulfate (SLES). Sulfates strip away valuable moisture and protective layers, leaving your skin prone to sun damage, allergies, and acne. Just like with everything else, if consumed in small amounts, it shouldn't cause any problems, but in combination with other substances or larger amounts, it's said, yet not proved, that it may cause skin cancer. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://www.dermstore.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/100418-Feature-Skin.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://www.dermstore.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/100418-Feature-Skin.jpg?profile=RESIZE_710x" width="700" class="align-center"/></a></span></p>
<p><b>Fragrances </b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We get it, everyone likes nice-smelling shampoos, lotions, and cleansers. But is this fragrance good for you, besides the pleasant scent? Fragrance is a blend of aromatic extracts from natural and synthetic ingredients, and it has a lot of unknown toxic chemicals. Because of the appealing effect, fragrances are used in nearly 50% of beauty products. They can cause skin irritation, allergies and sores, and, in the long run, may cause hormone disruption and cause cancer. No matter how fabulous they smell, switch from chemical to</span> <a href="https://bondichic.com.au/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">natural skincare brands</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">in order to avoid these no-so-fabulous consequences. </span></p>
<p><b>Alcohols</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">But not all alcohols. There are good alcohols which cause no harm if used properly. On the other side, there are bad alcohols like methanol, isopropyl alcohol, propanol, benzyl alcohol, and sd alcohol. These can be extremely harmful to your skin, because they strip the skin off of its natural protective barriers, leaving your skin vulnerable to external bacteria and infections. Alcohol can also cause inflammation and lead to an increase of acne-causing bacteria.</span></p>
<p><b>Butylene Glycol</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You have probably never heard of this, and therefore, never paid attention if it was in the ingredients list on the back of the product package you're buying. Derived from petroleum,</span> <a href="https://thedermreview.com/butylene-glycol/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Butylene Glycol</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">is used to dissolve other ingredients, and as a humectant, to hold moisture to the skin. Since it's found in so many beauty and skincare products that it is difficult to keep track of how much you're exposed to it, it's best to avoid it at all costs. Side effects are numerous, most important being skin irritation, dermatitis, and hives. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Despite the positive features chemicals can have, they are also proved to have a wide range of negative effects on your skin and health. The good news is that, nowadays, there are plenty of alternatives if you wish to escape the harmful chemical ingredients we’ve listed above. Be wise and think about what's best for your skin next time you go to a cosmetic shop.</span></p>Summer Special on Microneedlingtag:skincareprofessionals.com,2019-05-31:6332291:BlogPost:2470152019-05-31T02:26:29.000ZSadiya Naseemhttps://skincareprofessionals.com/profile/SadiyaNaseem

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We all have our own skincare routine. Some of us have more success than others in keeping our face clean from pimples. However, you can always do better. If you belong to the group with problematic skin, perhaps it’s just genetics, but it can also be that you’re doing something wrong.

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We all have our own skincare routine. Some of us have more success than others in keeping our face clean from pimples. However, you can always do better. If you belong to the group with problematic skin, perhaps it’s just genetics, but it can also be that you’re doing something wrong. Having that in mind, it's best to consult with other people on their skincare rituals and compare. Of course, what works on one person, doesn’t necessarily work on another. When you think about skin care, the first association is a bunch of skin products and being at a loss to know which ones to choose. However, there are much simpler things that concern your everyday life that affect your skin. In that respect, there are universal truths that are efficient for everyone and perhaps some of them will be news for you. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://www.garnierusa.com/-/media/project/loreal/brand-sites/garnier/usa/us/articles/skincare/daily-skincare-habits-you-need-for-healthy-vibrant-skin/daily_skin_care_habits_for_healthy_vibrant_skin.jpg?h=496&w=890&la=en&hash=46B24510A631A962253841FEBAC9F5B31946818F" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://www.garnierusa.com/-/media/project/loreal/brand-sites/garnier/usa/us/articles/skincare/daily-skincare-habits-you-need-for-healthy-vibrant-skin/daily_skin_care_habits_for_healthy_vibrant_skin.jpg?h=496&w=890&la=en&hash=46B24510A631A962253841FEBAC9F5B31946818F&profile=RESIZE_710x" width="640" class="align-center"/></a></span></p>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Change pillowcase</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You may be taking all sorts of measures to take care of your skin, but unless you change your pillowcase regularly, all your effort will be futile. Once you dive your face into that dirty pillowcase, it’s almost as if you haven’t cleansed or rinsed your face. Believe it or not, your own pillowcase can hold many germs that can cause a reaction and bring those awful pimples onto your face. It’s generally advised to change your pillowcase once a week, but some people claim that you should do it every two days in order to be completely safe.</span></p>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Stay hydrated</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Another thing that affects your skin, but isn’t directly related to treating it is hydration. It’s very important to</span> <a href="https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/how-much-water-should-you-drink-per-day"><span style="font-weight: 400;">drink plenty of fluids</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">on a daily basis, especially water. Not only that water keeps you healthy and eases weight loss, but it also keeps your skin young and elastic. There is a glow that no cosmetical treatment can give you and that one comes completely naturally. Make sure to drink at least two liters of water per day and you’ll be able to see results after only a few weeks.</span></p>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Can’t do it all yourself</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Even though you may have all the right information about skin treatment and you seem to have a hang of it, you should know that you’re not exactly omnipotent. Many people are leading a battle with acne and they’re not even ready to admit it. Others have already made peace with their problematic skin and realized that’s just the way things are, but it’s time for an awakening. The truth is that you don’t need to suffer this faith. Turn to professionals and</span> <a href="https://www.jenniferbradley.com/ACNE-TREATMENT_c_22.html"><span style="font-weight: 400;">get the best acne treatment</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">there is. Whether these are cosmetic procedures or dermatologists or a combination, there is a way for you to win this fight and you shouldn’t quit.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1210/2656/articles/GettyImages-635947546_1170x.jpg?v=1541181828" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1210/2656/articles/GettyImages-635947546_1170x.jpg?v=1541181828&profile=RESIZE_710x" width="640" class="align-center"/></a></span></p>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Don’t wear makeup to bed</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">One of the main rules of having healthy and beautiful skin is to never go to bed wearing makeup. It is strictly forbidden. Regardless of how tempting it is to just crash into bed after a long and exhausting day of work, you must muster enough strength to take it off before bed. Failing to do so will lead to clogging your pores and causing acne.</span></p>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Makeup wipes can’t replace a cleanser</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Many girls tend to use makeup removal wipes instead of lotion or a cleanser. This is not advisable</span> <a href="https://www.skincare.com/article/makeup-remover-vs-cleanser"><span style="font-weight: 400;">as it certainly isn’t the same</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">. Makeup wipes can only help you remove the external layer of makeup. However, their power is limited and they don’t work on deeper levels. On the other hand, cleansers are there to pick all the dirt our from your pores and leave your face truly clean and ready to regenerate during the night.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">All in all, one must tread lightly when it comes to skincare. This is much like a minefield. One wrong move and you’re gone. Well, it isn’t as dramatic as that, but you should only use tested products recommended by doctors and stick to routines you know that help. It isn’t very smart to experiment in this area. However, in case you want to make a radical change in your skincare routine, make sure you consult a dermatologist or a very skilled cosmetic. Just try hard and remember, the more you know, the better.</span></p>Get updated on the latest esthetic equipment.

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As the first sunny spring days hit us with their positivity, it’s difficult not to think about the upcoming summer, all the time you want to spend outdoors and all the beaches you can’t wait to frequent.

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As the first sunny spring days hit us with their positivity, it’s difficult not to think about the upcoming summer, all the time you want to spend outdoors and all the beaches you can’t wait to frequent. There’s just one little problem. Those heavy December meals and January comfort food have left their mark on your body. And since the days are getting longer and more beautiful, now seems to be the best time to fix that. Here are some tips for getting that perfectly flat belly to show off all summer long.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://images.pexels.com/photos/42069/belly-body-calories-diet-42069.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&h=750&w=1260" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://images.pexels.com/photos/42069/belly-body-calories-diet-42069.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&h=750&w=1260&profile=RESIZE_710x" width="700" class="align-center"/></a></span></p>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Be careful what you eat</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It’s logical. If you want to lose weight and shape your body, you will have to make some adjustments to your diet. Of course, this also means that you’ll have to avoid certain food groups. Start with foods containing trans fats, such as margarines and similar kinds of spread. These may lead to excess abdominal fat, but also inflammation and heart disease, meaning that you should switch these fats for the good ones, like omega-3 fats from fish like salmon od mackerel.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You should also say no to anything with white flower or white sugar in it. On the other hand, you should focus your diet on proteins and fiber. Soluble fiber is good for you, since it absorbs water to create a certain type of gel, which then slows down the food going through your digestive system. It also helps in lowering your glucose and blood cholesterol levels. You can find it in flaxseeds, blackberries or avocados, while you can get the protein you need from meat, dairies, nuts or fish. Protein makes you feel full, boosts your metabolism and helps your body build muscle mass. </span></p>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Exercise wisely</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The way you spend your calories is probably even more important than how much you eat, so make sure that you combine your healthy diet with some good training. Pick aerobic exercises and full-body strength training to get that perfect beach body, paying special attention to your glutes and belly. You should also do exercises that activate several muscle groups, like pushups, squats or rows for more effective workout sessions.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Do these exercises for as long as you can and choose an intensity that you’re comfortable with. Another way to build muscle mass more efficiently and lose the stubborn belly fat is through lifting weights and resistance training, even more so if you combine them with</span> <a href="https://www.pharmacyonline.com.au/weight-loss-fitness/weight-management/weight-loss-supplements"><span style="font-weight: 400;">naturally-formulated weight loss supplements</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">to help you burn fat and reduce your appetite. Also, if you exercise early in the morning, you’ll launch your metabolism for the entire day ahead of you.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://images.pexels.com/photos/1640777/pexels-photo-1640777.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&h=750&w=1260" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://images.pexels.com/photos/1640777/pexels-photo-1640777.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&h=750&w=1260&profile=RESIZE_710x" width="700" class="align-center"/></a></span></p>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Hydration matters</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Not drinking enough water can actually weaken the effect of your workout, since any level of dehydration can have a bad influence not only on your exercising, but also on your potential to burn fat. Plus, your body will require some extra water if you work out regularly. About eight to ten glasses a day will be fine, but if you feel thirsty, it’s OK to drink more. However, try not to</span> <a href="https://www.rd.com/health/wellness/drinking-too-much-water/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">drink too much water</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, to avoid overhydration. In case you get tired of water and want to switch to something else, make sure that you stay away from sugary drinks, like sodas, chocolate milk or other soft drinks. They can cause you to gain weight and especially belly fat, which is what you’re trying to prevent.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Similarly, alcohol can also be harmful and can contribute to formation of belly fat, so stick to one drink a day, and not more. To add some flavor to your water, infuse it with citruses, berries or mint, or make some green tea instead. And when you drink water, feel free to drink it cold, since your body will use more calories on processing ice-cold water and regulating its temperature.</span></p>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Stay motivated</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Talking about heathy food and regular exercise is easy, but once it comes down to doing it, it can become a totally different story. This is why having proper motivation is essential, especially if your previous attempts at losing weight went awry as soon as you came across your first obstacles. Start with setting smaller and more achievable goals. With each goal you achieve, you’ll stay motivated longer. Furthermore, finding somebody who’ll be ready to exercise with you or even maintain the healthy diet you set for yourself can help you greatly.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The fact that somebody else depends on your decisions and actions may prompt you to think twice before you do something you don’t really want to. Introducing variety to your workout and your diet can also be motivating. This means that you can combine exercising in a gym with hiking, cycling, swimming or dancing, but also that you should do your best to cook different meals every day, so that you don’t get bored with the healthy food options. Finally,</span> <a href="https://www.sparkpeople.com/resource/motivation_articles.asp?id=1990"><span style="font-weight: 400;">rewarding yourself</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">for every lost inch of belly fat is also a good idea. Whenever you achieve a goal you set for yourself, treat yourself to a massage, buy a new piece of clothes or take your best friend to a good concert.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It will take some time, determination and a couple of smart choices to lose any belly fat you may have and get that flat belly you want. So, don’t waste any more time and get down to work today.</span></p>Essential Items You Need on Your Australian Summer Vacationtag:skincareprofessionals.com,2019-03-02:6332291:BlogPost:2455282019-03-02T08:18:52.000ZEmmahttps://skincareprofessionals.com/profile/Emma711

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Australia, the dream vacation land. The incredible vistas, Bondi Beach (or any beach, really), 240 sunny days on average – what country could be more tempting for a full-blown summer vacation? Of course, Australia is more than beaches and surfing. There are sights to take your breath away, fashion lessons to learn, amazing food to try and incredible music to listen to.

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Australia, the dream vacation land. The incredible vistas, Bondi Beach (or any beach, really), 240 sunny days on average – what country could be more tempting for a full-blown summer vacation? Of course, Australia is more than beaches and surfing. There are sights to take your breath away, fashion lessons to learn, amazing food to try and incredible music to listen to. So, while you take the time to create your Australian summer bucket list, which can include swimming with dolphins, kayaking, and numerous music festivals, we’re going to go ahead and comprise a list of things that simply have to find a home in your suitcase for this once-in-a-lifetime adventure, so stay tuned, you don’t want to miss an item.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://images.pexels.com/photos/590513/pexels-photo-590513.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&h=750&w=1260" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://images.pexels.com/photos/590513/pexels-photo-590513.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&h=750&w=1260&profile=RESIZE_710x" width="640" class="align-center"/></a></span></p>
<h2><b>Go big</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Aussie girls are famous for mixing styles and generally being very nonchalant when it comes to fashion – they dance to the beat of their own drum. However, the one thing they do take seriously is swimwear. Given the number of beach days they’re blessed with, this comes as no surprise, but that means you have to step up your game in this department as well.</span> <a href="https://www.weraddicted.com/the-best-swimsuit-for-getting-the-perfect-tan/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Make sure you’re well-equipped with every style</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">from the bikini and sporty one-piece to crotchet and retro swimsuits. Go for polka dots, floral pastels, neutrals, boho prints, stripes; the more stylish, the better.</span></p>
<h2><b>The inevitable</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As said, an Aussie girl is pretty chill when it comes to her wardrobe, which is why she won’t shy away from just putting on a pair of stylish shorts once she’s done with the beach and head straight to lunch or even dinner. The perfect thing about this garment is that it can look polished or totally casual, depending on how you style it, so make sure to scout for the perfect pair of denim shorts for your body type online; with such a wide selection, you are bound to find your go-to pair. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://images.pexels.com/photos/307006/pexels-photo-307006.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&h=750&w=1260" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://images.pexels.com/photos/307006/pexels-photo-307006.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&h=750&w=1260&profile=RESIZE_710x" width="640" class="align-center"/></a></span></p>
<h2><b>Never be caught without</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The one thing Australians are incredibly diligent about is sun protection. Therefore, a broad spectrum of SPF moisturizers and body lotions is not something you want to be caught without. Speaking of protection, did you know that Australia is one of the rare countries that actually have a standard for sunglasses? So, aside from choosing among some of the most stylish frames of the season, you’re best advised to pick the lenses from their stated 3 and 4 categories, to provide your eyes with the ultimate protection from the UV rays. Straw hats and head wraps, of course, belong in this category as well, so think of these as your style meets safety trinity.</span></p>
<h2><b>What about the underwear?</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Depending on your activity choices, you could end up needing up to many different pairs of underwear. If you can’t imagine a vacation without sweating (and summer in Australia gets hot a lot), you might want to find a quality pair of briefs and some good women’s socks made of good breathable fabrics. Finally, as relaxed as they are, Aussie girls do know when it’s time to polish up, and they’re not afraid of getting their glam on when it’s time to party. So, make sure you get the most extravagant and chic</span> <a href="https://www.boody.com.au/products/g-string"><span style="font-weight: 400;">g-string</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">underneath your party dress, because the nightlife scene is something you don’t want to miss, or be devoid of the glam while at it.</span></p>
<h2><b>Speaking of parties</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You want to keep it glam but also on the breezy side, which is why</span> <a href="https://cupofjo.com/2014/07/three-dresses-which-would-you-pick/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">the ultimate must-have dress</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">simply has to be a slip dress, preferably with a high slit. It can be a sequin, boho or a simple satin in a killer hue that makes you pop, but make sure you find the perfect one and tuck it in safely in the suitcase.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bonus: don’t forget about crop tops, crochet tops and simple tees as you’ll need these. Kaftans and kimonos are optional but preferred, especially as resort wear, and make sure you pack a nice and cozy sweater, because there are times when the gorgeous continent can surprise you with a sudden chill. Have a stylish holiday and take plenty of photos. </span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Spring is right on our doorstep and it’s time we fully embrace it. The whole world is going to be in bloom, so why shouldn’t you? Health and beauty always come from within, and we can’t be our best selves if we’re not fueling our bodies with the right foods.

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Spring is right on our doorstep and it’s time we fully embrace it. The whole world is going to be in bloom, so why shouldn’t you? Health and beauty always come from within, and we can’t be our best selves if we’re not fueling our bodies with the right foods. So whether you’re trying to get in shape in time for summer or you just want to feel better, here are some nutritional changes that you should implement this spring.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://images.pexels.com/photos/1382734/pexels-photo-1382734.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&h=750&w=1260" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://images.pexels.com/photos/1382734/pexels-photo-1382734.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&h=750&w=1260&profile=RESIZE_710x" width="640" class="align-center"/></a></span></p>
<p></p>
<h2><b>Fresh everything</b></h2>
<p></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">During winter, it can be difficult to find fresh foods that aren’t far too expensive or taste plastic, which means our fresh fruits and veggies intake goes down. You might be still getting your five a day through frozen vegetables or dried fruit, but fresh is always the better way. Not only do you get more nutritional value out of fresh ingredients, but it’s the tastiest and easiest way to eat it. Replace the sides in your dish with fresh salads (yes, you can have</span> <a href="https://www.thisisinsider.com/can-you-eat-too-much-salad-2018-2"><span style="font-weight: 400;">multiple different salads per meal</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">) and snack on bananas, carrot sticks, and berries. The best part is that you can eat more food when you’re eating it fresh without feeling bloated or stuffed, so you can enjoy all the fresh flavors.</span></p>
<p></p>
<h2><b>Check your stats</b></h2>
<p></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We might think that we’re eating right, but you really can’t know if you’re missing something until you run a blood test and check your results. Is anything is out of place, talk to a nutritionist and see what you should change to sort it out. Nutrition doesn’t have a one-size-fits-all solution, and you should make sure you’re tailoring your diet to yourself. Remember that spring is a time of allergies and flues, so supplements might help you get your immune system up and ready to defend. If you’re also turning up your workout schedule and your muscles are aching, you can use remedies like</span> <a href="https://www.ausnaturalcare.com.au/vitamins/curcumin"><span style="font-weight: 400;">natural curcumin tablets</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">to relieve some pain. Either way, remember that, while your body is best at absorbing nutrients from food, if you need a boost in a single nutrient, supplements can be a way to get that, without overeating on beets and kale.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://images.pexels.com/photos/1389102/pexels-photo-1389102.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&h=750&w=1260" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://images.pexels.com/photos/1389102/pexels-photo-1389102.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&h=750&w=1260&profile=RESIZE_710x" width="640" class="align-center"/></a></span></p>
<p></p>
<h2><b>Swap your proteins</b></h2>
<p></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Yes, yes, proteins are important to our functioning and overall well-being, but we’re actually probably</span> <a href="http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20180522-we-dont-need-nearly-as-much-protein-as-we-consume"><span style="font-weight: 400;">getting more of it than we need</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">. If most of your protein comes from red meat and processed meat, you are getting a lot more of the bad stuff – cholesterol, fats, and additives – then you are protein. Nobody is saying you have to go vegan, but swapping out some of your meat for plant-based protein is a great move. It will get you eating more plants, it’s better for the planet and you’ll get all the protein you need. Tofu isn’t the only option. Nuts can be a great protein snack and beans and lentils are amazing bases for all kinds of dishes. Not to mention, if you stop relying on meat for everything you’re cooking, you will discover a lot more foods you might have never tried before. And when you do eat meat, stick to lean meats like chicken breast and rabbit.</span></p>
<p></p>
<h2><b>Cut out processed carbs</b></h2>
<p></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Carbs aren’t the enemy. We need carbohydrates in our diet to help us live, as they are the easiest way for our body to get energy. However, there’s a big difference between eating whole grain cereal for breakfast and eating a chocolate bar – even though they are both carbs. You want all of your carbs to come from whole, minimally processed ingredients: brown rice, raw sugar, whole grain bread, and tortillas, etc. These are complex carbs and they take longer to digest, meaning you’ll feel full for longer. On the other hand, most processed foods are made with simple carbs, most notably sugar, which gives you a quick burst of energy and then lets you down quite violently, making you crave it again.</span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Remember that you should never restrain yourself from eating whole groups of food, just because you read that they’re “bad”. Focus on having a balanced diet with lots of different food groups, fresh produce, and enough liquids, and you’ll be on your way to a healthier lifestyle in no time. It’s easier to do it in a team, so try and get the whole household involved in changing habits for the better.</span></p>The Power of a Beautiful Smiletag:skincareprofessionals.com,2019-02-12:6332291:BlogPost:2451182019-02-12T18:52:47.000ZEmmahttps://skincareprofessionals.com/profile/Emma711
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Nice teeth are often a significant feature. Those who have them tend to take them for granted, while others, who understand this and haven’t been as blessed as the first group, do everything in their power to correct their teeth situation and</span> <a href="https://www.huffingtonpost.com/sam-cohen/6-great-dental-hygiene-ti_b_11345130.html"><span style="font-weight: 400;">never neglect their oral hygiene</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">. Yet there…</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Nice teeth are often a significant feature. Those who have them tend to take them for granted, while others, who understand this and haven’t been as blessed as the first group, do everything in their power to correct their teeth situation and</span> <a href="https://www.huffingtonpost.com/sam-cohen/6-great-dental-hygiene-ti_b_11345130.html"><span style="font-weight: 400;">never neglect their oral hygiene</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">. Yet there are also those who don’t have very nice teeth and they don’t even realize how fixing those up could change their lives for the better. It is an investment worth making, not only for beauty benefits. Having a beautiful smile will make you more confident and generally happier than you used to be. Plus, it will give you the courage and a push to smile and laugh more. Australian girls are known for their gorgeous smiles. When you think about it, it is so widespread that it has even become a stereotype. So, why wouldn’t you join in on the trend?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://images.pexels.com/photos/908602/pexels-photo-908602.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&h=750&w=1260" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://images.pexels.com/photos/908602/pexels-photo-908602.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&h=750&w=1260&profile=RESIZE_710x" width="640" class="align-center"/></a></span></p>
<h2><b>Be more attractive</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The first and the most obvious perk of having nice teeth is definitely the aesthetic one. A beautiful smile changes your whole face and your whole look. It will even bring out some of your other good facial features – for example your eyes or your cheeks. You’ll definitely be able to hypnotize people with your smile once it’s all fixed up. Naturally, by looking more attractive, you’ll feel more confident. Moreover, the confidence you get will help you achieve your goals and be the best version of yourself.</span></p>
<h2><b>Take action</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You may think you don’t need anything done on your teeth, when the reality is completely different. When we think about dental work, we instantly hear and see imaginary drills and injections evoking some very bad memories, other people’s or our own. The truth is that even minor adjustments can significantly affect our smile. Teenagers all over the country are</span> <a href="https://www.fineorthodontics.com.au/treatments/invisalign/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">rushing to get their Invisalign in Maroubra</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">to achieve that perfect smile that breaks cute boys’ hearts. Once you do even the slightest thing, you’ll see how amazing the results are.</span></p>
<h2><b>Make people happy</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Having a good smile doesn’t only make you happy, but it makes the people around you happy as well. Have you ever walked past a stranger who smiled at you for no reason? You have to admit, it made you happy. That’s exactly the point. A smile is basically a silent compliment and it’s always somehow justified. Nobody smiles at strangers completely randomly. They must think you’re cute or you have a good vibe. So, by smiling, you’re actually making other people happy as well as yourself, making the world a better place.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://images.pexels.com/photos/935993/pexels-photo-935993.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&h=750&w=1260" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://images.pexels.com/photos/935993/pexels-photo-935993.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&h=750&w=1260&profile=RESIZE_710x" width="640" class="align-center"/></a></span></p>
<h2><b>Strive at work</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Believe it or not, smiling is even used as a business strategy. Many companies throughout Australia are starting to use this strategy and the best thing of all is that it actually works. Studies show that</span> <a href="https://www.fastcompany.com/3048751/happy-employees-are-12-more-productive-at-work"><span style="font-weight: 400;">people are more productive in a safe and encouraging environment</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, and the base of such an environment is one simple smile. So, next time you walk around the office, smile to your colleagues when you greet them. It’s almost effortless and yet, so effective. Plus, if you have the chance to improve someone’s mood, why wouldn’t you? By making others happy, you’ll be happier yourself.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Never underestimate the power of a smile. A smile can go from cheering people up to getting amazing, groundbreaking ideas and motivation for all sorts of work or action. This is exactly why we need to smile more. In order to do that, we need to take care of our teeth. That’s why regular visits to the dentist and good dental hygiene help us go a long way on the path to smiling more and being happier people.</span></p>Bye-Bye Red/Sensitive Skintag:skincareprofessionals.com,2019-01-29:6332291:BlogPost:2452102019-01-29T17:55:37.000ZKaren Garbhttps://skincareprofessionals.com/profile/KarenGarb

The beauty business has become so powerfully strong in the last decade, with many people opting for semi-permanent makeup. However, one of the most popular procedures in this department is definitely microblading. But what is microblading, and is it safe? Is everyone eligible for this procedure? And finally, are there any other benefits to this then just getting having perfectly shaped eyebrows?</p>

<h1>1. What is Microblading?</h1>
<p>Eyebrows are extremely important in this day and age, especially with millennials. Probably due to the fact that everything’s online now, and we get to follow the lives of our favorite celebrities much more closely than before – to such an extent that we basically know which celebrity underwent which beauty procedure, microblading eyebrows included. But what is actually microblading?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This procedure resembles tattooing your face but with a small difference. As opposed to classic tattoos that are completely permanent, microblading eyebrows is semi-permanent. This means that the eyebrows will stay on one’s face from 12 months up to 3 years, depending of the quality of the artist and the general state of the skin. During the process, the artist makes small incisions into the skin of the client, and using thin, hair-like strokes creates the exact shape that the client wants.</p>
<p> </p>
<h1>2. Is Microblading Safe?</h1>
<p>One of the questions that many ask before opting for this procedure is <span><a href="https://www.health.com/beauty/microblading-eyebrows-0">whether microblading is safe or not</a></span>. Just like tattooing, getting your eyebrows microbladed is a perfectly safe procedure if you choose the right artists. First of all, it cannot be regarded as painful as the artist will use a numbing ointment which will help you not feel (or feel just a little bit) the small incisions that are being made. After the procedure, you need to pay special attention to the way you treat your eyebrows. Unless you do this correctly, there might be certain risks such as infection, allergic reactions or the fact that they’re not done in a good way, or the way you wanted to. This is why it’s very important to choose your artist wisely, which brings us to our next question:</p>

<h1>3. What to Have in Mind Before Choosing the Artist?</h1>
<p>Just like a proper preparation and following the proper aftercare routine, choosing the best possible artist should be your priority. There is a plethora of artists that offer this service, and it is your job to find the one you think (more importantly know) is the best. The first thing you need to be looking for is a certified one, and opting for an artist who passed the <span><a href="https://www.artofbeautyacademy.com/microblading-training/">high-quality PhiBrows training</a></span> is probably the best choice. A good artist such as this one will take great care of you and your eyebrows before, during and after the procedure, which is extremely important. Bear in mind that this is not something that you should be saving your money on – spend as much as you have to but make sure to choose someone who you will be satisfied with.</p>
<p> </p>
<h1>4. Are There Any Health Benefits?</h1>
<p>The most obvious benefit of microblading is that it enhances the aesthetics of your face in the exact way that you wanted it to. However, even it doesn’t have any physical health benefits, it surely has mental ones. Namely, being satisfied with your eyebrows and the way they look on your face can significantly enhance your self-esteem and make you much more confident and satisfied with yourself. Being confident can definitely <span><a href="https://psychcentral.com/blog/8-suggestions-for-strengthening-self-esteem-when-you-have-depression/">lower the chances of being depressed</a></span>.</p>
<p> <a href="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/2234916587?profile=original" target="_self"><img src="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/2234916587?profile=original" width="640" class="align-center"/></a></p>
<h1>5. Can Everyone Opt for This Procedure?</h1>
<p>Most people qualify as good candidates for the procedure, but there certainly are those who need to think about it a bit more. Waiting for some time more or having a consultation session with the certified artist that you chose is in this case the best option. There are certain pre-existing conditions that can affect the final outlook of your brows, such as:</p>
<p> </p>
<ul>
<li><span><a href="https://www.romper.com/p/can-you-get-your-eyebrows-microbladed-while-pregnant-expert-weighs-in-78477">Pregnant women</a></span></li>
<li>Women who breastfeed</li>
<li>Diabetic people</li>
<li>Serious diseases such as cancer, epilepsy or autoimmune disorders</li>
<li>Any bleeding disorders</li>
<li>People who take blood thinning medications</li>
<li>People who’ve recently had Botox</li>
</ul>
<p> </p>
<h1>Conclusion</h1>
<p>Getting microbladed eyebrows is perhaps not something that’s necessary, but if it’s going to help you feel more secure about yourself and your look, and if it’s something that you’ve always wanted to do – you should do it. It’s perfectly safe, and can be done in a great way if you choose the right artist and religiously follow the aftercare instructions. This is rather important as it can make or break any eyebrow look, so make sure to follow them step by step.</p>Estheticians Thrive!tag:skincareprofessionals.com,2018-10-08:6332291:BlogPost:2436362018-10-08T16:04:51.000ZKaren Garbhttps://skincareprofessionals.com/profile/KarenGarb

<div class="post-body entry-content" id="post-body-4562047936385528677"><div dir="ltr"><div><span>If you or your partner has struggled with erectile dysfunction, often called “ED,” you have likely tried many different treatments.</span></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span>Have they worked? If they did, did it last?</span></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span>From pills to vacuum constriction devices to implants, there are numerous options, but they all have a significant flaw: they don’t address the cause of the problem, only the symptoms. Pills don’t allow for spontaneous sexual activity, and many treatments have major side-effects.</span></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span>We’d like to present an innovative new option: shock wave therapy from <a href="https://physicianartistry.com/gainswave/"><b>GAINSWave</b></a>.</span></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span><strong><a href="https://physicianartistry.com/gainswave/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Low Intensity Shockwave Therapy for ED</a></strong> <b>in Sterling, VA</b></span></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span><b>What is Shock Wave Therapy?</b></span></div>
<div><span><b> </b></span></div>
<div><span>The procedure itself is actually quite simple. At a healthcare facility, a clinician applies a handheld device that sends mild sound waves through the penis, stimulating the growth of new blood vessels. The treatment does not require anesthesia or a numbing agent of any kind, making it more affordable, more convenient, and quicker to complete.</span></div>
<div><div class="separator"><a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4VtWCPhyN5A/W62tRRCMpKI/AAAAAAAAAAQ/IcmDU0i4JTIEJyU_TvBzs6k_K_yy30siACPcBGAYYCw/s1600/shock%2Bwave.jpg"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4VtWCPhyN5A/W62tRRCMpKI/AAAAAAAAAAQ/IcmDU0i4JTIEJyU_TvBzs6k_K_yy30siACPcBGAYYCw/s640/shock%2Bwave.jpg" width="640"/></a></div>
<div class="separator"></div>
<span><br/></span><span>“Shock wave” might sound intense, but during the treatment, you’ll only experience a slight tingling in the penile region; the overall the process is completely painless!</span></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span>After the treatment is complete, you can get back to your daily life, with no downtime and no need for extra rest. You could easily complete a session in the morning and play a round of golf in the afternoon!</span></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span>In most cases, the full treatment process will involve six therapy sessions over three weeks. However, it can take up to 12 treatments, spread out over as much as a year.</span></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span>This is a drug-free treatment that does not require surgery, has no down-time and has no major adverse side effects. Delivering lasting results with higher-quality erections, greater sensitivity, and increased spontaneity, shock wave therapy can increase your confidence in the bedroom and in your life.</span></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span><b>Who Might Benefit from Shock Wave Therapy?</b></span></div>
<div><span><b> </b></span></div>
<div><span>So who would be a good candidate for this innovative, drug-free treatment? Studies have shown positive results for the use of shock wave therapy in many men, including men with mild to severe erectile dysfunction.</span></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span>In most cases, men who have struggled with ED and have not seen success from other treatments will want to consider <a href="https://physicianartistry.com/gainswave/"><b>shockwave therapy</b></a>. If Viagra®, Cialis®, and other pills have failed, shock wave therapy may be the solution you’ve been looking for.</span></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span>The treatment can be especially effective for diabetic men with “arterogenic impotence,” which is the formation of fatty acids in arteries. These fatty acids can disrupt blood flow to the penis, but shock wave therapy can help alleviate the condition.</span></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span>Shock wave therapy can actually cause the body to develop new blood vessels, so patients with a lack of penile arteries can see improvements from the drug-free treatment.</span></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span>However, it appears that men with penile implants or men with anti-coagulant therapy are typically not good candidates for the procedure. No matter what your medical history, it’s essential that you discuss the treatment with your doctor before proceeding.</span></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span>Shock wave therapy has been well-received by many different patients. Men have reported that shock wave therapy provides immediate improvement to sensitivity, with maximum results within 8 to 12 weeks. Although moderate to severe ED can require additional therapies, such as supplements, shock wave therapy can be extremely effective for men of all types.</span></div>

<div><span>We’ll reach out to you with information so you can start reclaiming your sex life and your passion in the bedroom!</span></div>

<p>A healthy and glowing skin needs regular care and there are three keys to keep your skin pampered. Cleanse your skin daily, moisturize it regularly and exfoliate it twice a week. Here are the natural cleansers that the Nature has gifted to us.<br/><br/></p>
<p><strong>Natural Cleanser:<br/><br/></strong></p>
<p><strong>Milk mixed with rose water and a few drops of honey:<br/><br/></strong></p>
<p>Take raw, fresh and unpasteurized milk in a bowl and put a few drops of rose water along with honey. Dip a cotton ball in this mixture, let it remain on the face, till it gets dry and wipe off with damp cotton once dried.<br/><br/></p>
<p>So, instead of using chemicals on your skin, use this natural cleanser as your be-time ritual and get a refreshed skin.<br/><br/></p>
<p><strong>Natural Moisturizers:<br/><br/></strong></p>
<p><strong>Honey:<br/><br/></strong></p>
<p><a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3758027/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Honey is the best naturally occurring moisturizer</a> that can make all the difference to your skin if you apply the face pack made up of organic honey. To reduce its viscosity, you need to add a few drops of rose or mineral water.<br/><br/></p>
<p><strong>Coconut Oil:<br/><br/></strong></p>
<p>Nothing keeps your skin as well-hydrated as coconut oil. It contains long-chain fatty acids and being immensely rich in Vitamin E, it is a great moisturizer for your skin. Apply lukewarm coconut oil mixed with a few drops of lemon juice (collagen booster Vitamin C) after cleansing your face and every time after washing your face.<br/><br/></p>
<p><strong>Natural Exfoliants:<br/><br/></strong></p>
<p>Take pure gram flour or whole wheat flour and mixed it with honey or yogurt. Apply this paste all over your face and let it get dry, rinse off once it is dried. This will remove the dead cell build ups from your skin, leaving it fresh and rejuvenated.<br/><br/></p>
<p>There are tons of <a href="http://secretsinhealth.com/7-tricky-home-remedies-for-glowing-skin/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">home remedies for glowing skin</a> that can take a gentle care of your skin and keeps it healthy. Carry a bottle of pure mineral water spray with you wherever you go and use it through-out the day. This will keep your skin as refreshed as a fresh rose. Using freshly squeezed aloe-Vera on your skin will soothe, heal and repair it. Just apply it all over your face and rinse off after sometime.</p>Long-Term Beauty Procedures Worth the Moneytag:skincareprofessionals.com,2018-09-17:6332291:BlogPost:2434102018-09-17T09:49:07.000ZEmmahttps://skincareprofessionals.com/profile/Emma711

Besides, surgical and non-surgical beauty procedures are no longer a taboo and they’re becoming more and more affordable, so it’s fairly simple getting the look you always wanted and becoming more confident, as long as you consider it as an investment.

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Looking flawless has never been easier, especially when you think about how big the beauty industry is right now. Besides, surgical and non-surgical beauty procedures are no longer a taboo and they’re becoming more and more affordable, so it’s fairly simple getting the look you always wanted and becoming more confident, as long as you consider it as an investment. Here are several long-term beauty procedures that are worth their cost.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2575/0718/products/Teeth-Whitening-gel_03@2x.jpg?v=1513792699" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2575/0718/products/Teeth-Whitening-gel_03@2x.jpg?v=1513792699&width=640" width="640" class="align-center"/></a></span></p>
<h2><b>Teeth whitening</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Since smile is the best makeup, getting your teeth whitened surely is a worthy beauty procedure. The results last for three to five years if you follow the doctor’s instructions and it’s a quite simple in-chair procedure. Hydrogen peroxide gel will be applied to your teeth, along with a triggering agent, and then the bleaching LED light will activate that liquid gel. You can get up to eight shades brighter teeth – just imagine what this can mean for your smile.</span></p>
<h2><b>Chemical hair straightening</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Are the ends of your hair always dry and brittle due to constant usage of hair straightener? Then chemical hair straightening is just the thing for you. There are</span> <a href="http://japanesehairstraighteningguide.com/2015/03/17/5-considerations-for-choosing-the-right-hair-straightening-treatment-option-for-you/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">several different procedures</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">– some of them can be done as a DIY, but there’s always a certain risk, so make sure you think it through. Of course, since your hair is always growing, every hair procedure is semi-permanent. This one can last for 4-6 months. Since it’s quite affordable, it’s definitively worth the money.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://www.dubaicosmeticsurgery.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Tummy-Tuck-vs-Liposuction.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://www.dubaicosmeticsurgery.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Tummy-Tuck-vs-Liposuction.jpg?width=640" width="640" class="align-center"/></a></span></p>
<h2><b>Tummy tuck</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If your post-weight loss or postpartum stomach is not looking as you’d like, abdominoplasty or tummy tuck is the procedure to consider. It’s a surgical procedure but don’t let that frighten you – there are many experienced surgeons that can perform this type of</span> <a href="http://medisculpt.com.au/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">cosmetic surgery in Perth</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">– you just have to make your choice. You can finally get rid of stretch marks, excess skin, and excess fatty tissue. Note that tummy tuck is not liposuction, although both procedures can be performed at the same time for an even better effect. Full recovery and visible results can take up to six months, but it’s a small sacrifice considering that a tummy tuck is a way to get a much more pleasing body contour.</span></p>
<h2><b>Laser hair removal</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Say goodbye to razors, waxing, and other short-term solutions – laser hair removal is the easiest way to remove all the unwanted hair from whatever body part you want. Full body treatments are also possible and now more effective than ever. Some hair can grow back after a year or so, but it’ll surely permanently reduce the rate at which your hair grows. Besides, you can always repeat the procedure to get the 100% results since, nowadays, laser hair removal is a fast and relatively inexpensive procedure.</span></p>
<h2><b>Double eyelid surgery</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Being extremely</span> <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2222481/South-Korean-girls-obsession-double-eyelid-surgery-strive-look-like-pretty-western-celebrities.html"><span style="font-weight: 400;">popular in Korea</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">right now, double eyelid surgery is something many Caucasian women wish for, too. This surgery will turn your single eyelid into a double one thus making your eyes look bigger and more noticeable. Of course, the crease a surgeon can make is not a big one, and fades over time. It lasts for 5 to 7 years and it will give you more options when it comes to eye makeup. It is extremely important to find an experienced surgeon, and that’s why blepharoplasty is a pricey procedure, but it’s surely a good investment.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Being the best version of yourself is now at the reach of your hand, you just have to be ready to spend some money. However, remember – an investment in yourself is always worth the money so go for it and get ready to wake up looking flawless!</span></p>

<p>Moisturizing is key to relieve skin hydration and make your skin look supple, refreshed, and youthful. Actually, when you skip on beauty sleep, your skin can appear dry and dehydrated. Therefore, investing in a good moisturizer will help increase hydration and protect your stressed-out skin.</p>
<h3>Drink Plenty of Water</h3>
<p>Studies have shown that most of the people use coffee to fight tiredness, however, reaching coffee after coffee can add too much caffeine which can ultimately dry out the skin. For that reason, we advise you to make friends with water as it is the best way to lessen the dehydrating effects when you’re sleep deprived.</p>

<p>Eyes are the first which become puffy when are not able to enjoy a sound sleep in the night. However, by applying a cooling substance to the eye area can get you radiant skin around the eyes as well.

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Almost since the dawn of time, women have been searching for different ways to look and feel more beautiful. Even the legendary Cleopatra left nothing to chance and was enhancing her gorgeousness with dead sea salts, body sugaring, milk baths, honey, sesame and moringa oil, and burnt almonds. An interesting choice of beauty product ingredients, right? Oh, you haven’t seen anything yet. The ingredients we use in cosmetics today might draw some origin from the ancient period, but they are far more peculiar. If you don’t believe us, here are five popular beauty product ingredients today that are very weird at first glance, but also, very effective.</span></p>
<h2><b>Cultured human skin cells</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You see what we are talking about? Using harvested skin cells to take care of your skin sounds more than strange, but the effects of this ingredient on one’s skin are nothing short of marvelous. Cultured human skin cells are used to induce healing of burn wounds. The products made with this ingredient usually contain a mixture of growth factors and proteins, as well as other useful ingredients that have shown great success in improving the skin’s overall appearance and health.</span></p>
<h2><b>Snail mucus</b></h2>
<p><b><a href="https://www.yesstyle.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/snail_1.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://www.yesstyle.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/snail_1.jpg?width=500" width="500" class="align-full"/></a></b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The very thought of this ingredient may make you want to throw up, but give it the benefit of the doubt. Putting</span> <a href="http://www.yesstyle.com/blog/2016-02-02/10-fascinating-facts-about-snail-slime-you-should-know-the-yesstyle-beauty-lab/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">snail slime</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">on your face is probably the last thing you want to do, but it might just be the very thing you need. You know how the slime protects snail’s feet from environmental dangers such as bacteria, rough surfaces, and UV-rays? Well, it can do the same for your skin. Snail mucus is packed with nutrients such as proteoglycans, glycoprotein and copper peptides. It also contains 91-98% water. All of this will make your skin protected and youthful.</span></p>
<h2><b>Charcoal</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">One of the unlikeliest and hottest ingredients in beauty products today is</span> <a href="https://blaq.co/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">the highly beneficial activated charcoal</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">. Although this ingredient has gained its glory by being used for grilling, we are finally tapping into its full potential. Now, we can find it in anything from shower scrubs to detoxifying face masks. Charcoal has many benefits including making skin pores smaller and cleaner, balancing out oily skin, treating acne, soothing and healing skin irritations and remedying scalp conditions such as dandruff and itchy scalp.</span></p>
<h2><b>Bee venom</b></h2>
<p><b><a href="http://skinandtonics.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/jar.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="http://skinandtonics.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/jar.jpg?width=600" width="600" class="align-full"/></a></b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you think putting venom on your skin is downright crazy, remember that injecting Botox is still the most popular road to younger skin. Well, we say farewell to Botox and hello to the new best method of returning the elasticity and youthful look to your skin, and it’s called</span> <a href="http://www.refinery29.com/bee-venom-ingredient-beauty-products"><span style="font-weight: 400;">bee venom</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">. This ingredient shares some healing properties with honey, which is still one of the most used ingredients in skin and hair products, especially</span> <a href="https://sheamoisture.com.au/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">in organic hair care products</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, but also has a lot of its own perks, including tricking the skin that it is stung and causing a tightening effect, which diminishes the effects of aging. Furthermore, bee venom has anti-inflammatory and antiseptic effects. It also enhances some important tissue functions like lubrication, hydration and cell function.</span></p>
<h2><b>Fish enzymes</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This one sounds really gross. Nevertheless, fish enzymes do a pretty amazing job when it comes to the appearance of one’s skin. For now, some beauty lines are using salmon egg enzymes, which are remarkably effective in gentle skin exfoliation. This is a healthy, non-toxic, naturally-derived and nourishing alternative to harsh chemical exfoliation. These enzymes eat their way through dead skin cells and make the skin look naturally young. The effects of this ingredient are also similar to microdermabrasion because it penetrates the first two layers of the skin.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://www.facebeautyplus.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/fish-oil-770x430.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://www.facebeautyplus.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/fish-oil-770x430.jpg?width=600" width="600" class="align-full"/></a></span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Women would go to great lengths for their beauty, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise that some of these weird ingredients found their way to cosmetic products. However, the products containing these substances are actually worth a try, since they can be really beneficial for your skin. So, even though some of them are gross and a bit insane, try them out!</span></p>
