A number of breakthrough lotions formulas are being released in the market. There are different variants of bath lotion for dry skin, oily skin, and normal skin. There is also what’s is called milk bath skin lotion. That every one can use to maximize that nourishing effect. Choosing the right lotion for your skin is essential to ensure that perfect glow.
Sleep
Enjoying a good night sleep makes the mind work more effectively and helps you make decisions more easily and effectively. A good nights sleep also helps you feel more energetic and this can also help control your body weight. You can also make your decisions with less stress. Sleeping well at night makes our immune system more effective and this help to keep us healthier.
If you are feeling tired or fatigued after a busy day the last thing you want to do is exercise. This can lead to apathy and subsequently more serious health problems which are associated with a inactive life style. By having a good nights sleep you give your body more energy and you’ll be more enthusiastic and feel more motivated to exercise.
Sunscreen
Switch to physical (a.k.a. mineral) sunscreens, which remain on the surface of your skin and aren’t absorbed into your system. (Physical sunscreens typically contain titanium dioxide and zinc oxide.) I love the Blue Lizard Suncream from Australia, which is available in many major U.S. chains.
Lipstick Stains
Don’t “Wine” About Lipstick. If you have trouble getting lipstick marks off wine glasses (which should only be washed in plain hot water, by the way – no soap!) then simply hold the lipstick-stained part of the glass over a steaming tea kettle and then wipe the lipstick off with a soft cloth.
Makeup
Makeup should be used to help you look good and feel better. Find your basic makeup essentials to create a radiant – looking complexion and then experiment with different colors, textures and cosmetics items to accentuate your features and enhance your face. Improving your appearance will boost your confidence and self esteem.
Walking
By taking a walk every morning you will encourage your body to be energized and you’ll feel much more prepared for the day ahead. In addition an added benefit will be your joints will be more flexible and you’ll become less prone to aches and pains associated with lack of mobility.
Lips
If you have the perfect mouth, then you have the option of following your own lip line and not using a pencil to line your lips. Merely brush the lipstick (either with a lipstick brush if you are using a tube lipstick, or with a wand) on your lips. If you want your upper lip to look more protruding, do this with your highlighter: Notice the cleft, or indentation, between your nose and upper lip. Put a lighter foundation or a highlighter there-it reflects light and makes the upper lip look as if it is protruding.
Love The Skin You’re In
It’s a popular phrase and the focus of a major marketing campaign – and it’s much easier said than done. The skin is the first line of defense against all elements, disease, infection, dirt, germs and foreign objects. It’s no wonder, then, that the skin care industry is booming!
Stop using retinoids (like Retin-A, Tazorac, or Differin, for example) and over-the-counter products with retinol. They are in the same family as Accutane, which you may already have been told to avoid.
Exfoliate
Exfoliation is the step most people skip in their weekly skincare routine. But trust me, if you start properly exfoliating your skin, you will notice an almost immediate difference. According to Berg, one of the reasons men’s skin looks more youthful than women’s is because men tend to exfoliate daily when they shave. There are several ways to exfoliate skin: Microdermabrasion, chemical peels and retinoids.
Moisturize
While I know of at least one famous beauty editor who swore skin doesn’t need moisturizer, basically everyone else I’ve read disagrees and is an adamant believer in it. A basic law of beauty is that everyone, no matter her skin type, should moisturize. Even if your skin is oily, it will benefit from moisturizers. (The only exception is those with acne). Why? Moisturizer seals moisture into skin (Berg calls this the ‘Saran Wrap effect’). So how much should you moisturize? Your skin will tell you.

Sea Salt Scrub for really dry skin all over, I’ve found that a homemade body scrub twice a week in the shower helps. You will notice the difference immediately.
All you need is a small bowl (container), 3 tablespoons of salt (sea salt if you have it), 6 tablespoons of olive oil( baby oil), mint extract.
Mix these ingredients all together, spread over dry skin, scrub, and rinse off in the shower. Then apply favorite moisturizer. This is really wonderful for winter weathered skin.
Thank you for sharing this great tip! Using a homemade body scrub with sea salt and olive oil sounds like a fantastic way to combat dry skin. The addition of mint extract must provide a refreshing sensation as well. I will definitely give it a try, especially during the winter months when my skin tends to become more weathered and dry. Applying a moisturizer after exfoliating is a crucial step to lock in the hydration. I appreciate you sharing this simple yet effective skincare solution!
