How do you know when a home made skin product expires?

March 15th, 2010

Im planning on making home made skin products but when using natural ingredients like fruit or dairy how do you know when it expires?? im trying not to use preservatives in my products.

anything homemade will probably expire around the same time as the ingredients you put in it expires. Just read the back of all the foods you used and estimate by those dates when your will expire. :)

What’s the best known skin firming lotion and is there anything that can help stretch marks fade?

March 15th, 2010

I just recently had a baby and got some stretch marks from being pumped with fluid. I was wondering what the best skin firming lotion is and if there is anything that will help fade the stretch marks faster.

cocoa butter and vitamin E are great for that. make sure you put it on at least 2 times a day. and what i find useful is if you mix 3 parts cocoa butter lotion with 1 part baby oil. it softens skin and will lighten and smoothen your stretch marks

hope this helps :)

What’s the best skin creams that you use to keep your skin looking youthful and healthy? Any reccomendations?

March 15th, 2010

I’m using Oyl of Olay right now, any other good ones? I’m 37yo and want to keep this look for as long as I can!

I suggest that you do not change your brand. Olay is great, since you didn’t mention the name of cream, so i suggest that you use its Regenerist or Total Effects.

Just cleanse your face daily and exfoliate it weekly, you don’t need to do so many things.
Remember, Beauty comes from inside, so dont forget to eat vegetables :D

What is the best way to take care of your skin?

March 15th, 2010

I have sensitive skin from head to toe. I am looking for multiple experiences with skin cleansers, lotions, toners, exfoliants and any kind of skin care stories. What works best for you? What keeps dry skin, specifically on the face at bay? What brands do you prefer? How many times per day do you wash your face? What is your routine?

I have sensitive skin too, rosacea to be exact, so I’m wary of EVERYTHING on my skin. I did however start using natural and organic products though and I’ve noticed a huge difference- they don’t seem to dry out my skin or make it get red and itchy.

Check out www.natural-skincare-solutions.com. That’s where I buy Juice Beauty.

Good luck! :-)

Has anyone else ever noticed that natural skincare products…?

March 15th, 2010

Always seem to work the best? I mean, I do use some unnatural products on my face but not very much and the natural products just seem to do the job very well. Who else noticed this?

I agree, natural ingredients are more gentle and work well with our skin. Although most skin care products that contain natural/anti-oxidants are more expensive, they’re definitely worth the price. If a product is too chemical based, there’s never a guarantee that our skin will work well with it, and it has a greater chance of affecting our skin in negative ways. This is why I prefer to do home made facial masks out of the ingredients that can come naturally from my refrigerator than from a lab.

Skin Care Routine For Oily Skin

March 14th, 2010

***i know the products i use are expensive, but, like i say in the video, my skin is something i am willing to invest in :) if you don’t want to spend that much money on skin care products, choose just 1 splurge item, then use drugstore products for the rest. example: use a drugstore cleanser and eye creme, and a higher end face creme.. you REALLY will notice a difference :)
