Sunburned?! All Natural Relief That Helps Keep Skin From Peeling, Too!

admin — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 01:52:05 +0000

No matter how diligently you apply sunscreen when you remember to, there are times when you don’t do it often enough or forget to bring it or miss a spot or two. The resulting sunburn can be painful,embarrassing and in the worst case scenarios can make you or someone you love miss precious vacation days and fun!

And if your kids are burned that compounds the misery because you suffer along with them even if you’re not the one affected. You’ll want to find the fastest most effective relief available, for you and your family, true?!

Living on Maui, I see victims of improper (or lack of) sunscreen use practically every day and I want to stop each and every one of them and enlighten them about what they can do to: relieve the pain, make the red turn brown and keep from peeling. You read that right! They don’t believe me when I tell them either, but I’ve had the advantage of having the solution at hand and have proven that it works time after time.

Remember: when your skin is burned, continuing to go out into the sun before it is healed without proper protection will only make the situation worse and you or your child will burn MORE. Here’s how to heal sunburn, the fastest way I’ve found.

When you see red skin or sunburn, the first thing needed is moisture…at the cellular level! It is through moisture that skin cells acquire the ability to reproduce and repair themselves.

Most people just want to apply aloe and Aloe Gel straight from the plant is a great skin healer. But on its own, aloe is astringent. And most of the time we don’t have a plant that we can freely hack at accessible.

Many will opt for the green or blue aloe gels available in local drug stores. Here you still have the disadvantage of the astringent and drying nature of the aloe itself along with the fact that most of these aloe products purchased over-the-counter contain alcohol. The alcohol will further dry the skin, inhibiting its healing abilities. Additionally, they are usually made from an inferior form of the aloe plant, not the healing extract.

The fastest and most effective relief for a severe sunburn is combination of two Absolutely Natural products: Aloe & Tea Tree Recovery Gel AND Rosehip & Aloe Lotion.

When you go in from the sun, put the products on ice or in the refrigerator, have the sunburned victim take a warm shower – not so hot it hurts, just warm enough to open the pores. WITHIN 5 MINUTES, apply the Rosehip Lotion liberally to get moisture to the cells and start the healing process.

Then, also liberally, apply the Aloe and Tea Tree Gel. Aloe Vera and Tea Tree Oil are amazing skin healers and work quickly and effectively. This is a gel, so when it dries it will feel tight and flaky – just wipe the flakes away and re-apply the Rosehip Lotion. A couple of hours later, repeat the process – you don’t have to re-shower – and if you’re still up for a while, then apply the Lotion once again before you go to bed. The more moisture supplied to the skin cells, the faster the skin will heal – and you’ll all be able to go back out in the sun and have FUN!

For just a little pink, the Rosehip Lotion alone will give fast relief from the discomfort, start the skin cells to healing themselves right away and you’ll see results as soon as the next morning. Once your skin is healed, you can tan.

I actually had occasion to “save a vacation” this last week. A friend of mine and her daughter, visiting Maui from Nebraska to celebrate the daughter’s thirteenth birthday and entry into teenager-dom, went to Ka’anapali Beach and didn’t use any sunscreen. She explained that she’d been to another beach a couple of days before, late in the day on fairly cloudy days & they hadn’t used any then, but this was a bright, sunny day and we played on the sand, in the water and snorkeled for about 3 hours.

She’s always been a very organized person, so I just assumed that she had put her sunscreen on and was sure she made her daughter do so. Not the case. They FRIED! They were so red, they were practically glowing and in a lot of pain! So, I took them home, provided mom with bottles of Aloe and Tea Tree Gel and Rosehip Lotion and the instructions above. (Additionally, ibuprophen will help with the pain so that you can sleep.)

The next day, they weren’t glowing any more but still a little pink, so they opted to stay out of the sun altogether. (Not a winning proposition for the new teenager!) However, they both exclaimed that the pain was gone and raved at how good it felt to put the lotion on their skin, especially when it was chilled. She continued to apply the lotion periodically during the day to both herself and her daughter. On day two after the burn, the pink was entirely gone, they looked tan and healthy and felt great. They applied Absolutely Natural SPF 25 and were able to head out to the beach to surf. Sometimes I’m even surprised at how fast it heals your skin!

Then there’s the added bonus of making a teenager a lot less miserable. We all know how they can get and when you compound that with a sunburn and instructions to stay out of the sun because of it…well, you get the picture. I was a hero to both of them, and they had lots more fun on their vacation.

I’ve used Absolutely Natural products on myself and my family for years and will continue to do so! They are the best! So, remember what Aunty Connie says: apply sunscreen often, properly and liberally…and if you don’t and you get a sunburn, there is a solution.

The best way for you and your kids to avoid a sunburn situation in the first place is to use safe, effective sunscreen – every time you are doing outdoor activities — apply it properly, liberally and often and keep your skin in the best condition possible by keeping it moist. All of these can be accomplished with this excellent line of products. To learn more about them and how to purchase them, click here: dreamsinmocean.com.

Essential Oils For Preventing And Treating Nail Fungus

admin — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 01:52:04 +0000

Nail fungus is just like any nail or skin disorder that can be cured and prevented by artificial means such as creams that should be applied topically to kill the fungus from the outside. There are also some pills to be taken orally to kill the fungus from the inside. Some of these products are usually recommended by dermatologists while some products can be bought even without the doctor’s prescription. On the other hand, there are also home remedies that are very natural as well as less expensive. Natural oils have been a part of home remedies for all sorts of health disorder. The popular essential oils are prevalent in curing different ailments and disorders such as hair fall, eczema and even nail fungus.

Tea tree oil, also known as melaleuca oil, is used for treating several conditions such as dandruff, boils, athlete’s foot and acne. Nail fungus is also included in the list of conditions that this natural antibiotic can cure. The tea tree oil came from the extracts of the native tree in Australia called Melaleuca Alternifolia. Tea tree oil is a very effective essential oil because it contains anti-fungal and antiseptic compounds that are best for killing fungus and preventing the fungus’ development in the nails and nail beds. It is also an excellent skin disinfectant as well. Purchase the item that says one hundred percent pure tea tree oil. It must be applied on the affected nail and skin at least two or three times every day. If it is used at fingernail, it would take at least six months before the nail is completely cured. However, if it used at toenails, it would take much longer, about eight to twelve months depending on the severity of the nail fungus.

The oil from the extracts of oregano leaves is also used as natural oil in treating toenail and fingernail fungus. Oregano oil is considered by many as the best anti-fungal oil ever. However, this is oil is stronger compared to tea tree oil. It may cause irritation for some who have sensitive skin so it is best to seek advice from those who are professional in skin care. In case this happens, you may combine oregano oil with a few drops of aloe or olive oil. Use something that would get the oil mixture under your nail such as toothbrush or cotton buds. Some testifies that after using oregano oil, using natural solvents will make the essential oil more effective in killing the fungus living in the nails. This is because the natural solvent allows the oregano oil to penetrate through the nails and skin faster. As a result, the affected area will dry and heal faster.

There are more essential oils that can help prevent and cure nail fungus. This includes lavender oil, clove oil, and more. However, like any other medicine or remedies, you must first analyze your skin condition (if you have an allergy to that certain oil or if you have sensitive skin) to avoid further damage in the nail and in the skin as well.

Face Makeup Tips To Be A Head-Turner

admin — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 01:52:03 +0000

Not all women are blessed with perfect skin tone and attractive features but with some effective face make up tips most can reach closer to what they desire to become. Face make up is the best way to highlight your attractive features and cover up your facial flaws.

One needs to be familiar with the make up techniques to bring out the best in their personality. There are several brand cosmetics available in the market that when used skillfully can create wonders. Known to be the girl`s best friend, these cosmetics should be carefully selected and surely discarded on expiry. And if you want to learn the basic face make up techniques, then here are some tips that will help you get the right face make up:

Base or foundation:

Start with applying appropriate base and moisturizer on your face. Also cover ears, neck and nape portions that are visible. Use a tissue paper to wipe off the excess moisture, if any. Apply foundation dots across your face and blend it well so as to cover your blemishes and other facial flaws. Opt for oil-free products that contain salicyclic acid or tea tree oil. Now take some ice cubes and quickly rub them on your skin. This will close all the pores on your face. Now dab with a tissue and apply compact powder. Make sure to select a range that matches with your complexion and hence gels well with your skin tone.

Eyes:

Select eye shadow according to your dress and day time. For evening, opt for darker shades and for bright daylight occasion go for lighter color eye shadows. You can also try some golden or silver glitter, if you are going for some evening party bash but better avoid it if you are attending something more formal.

Now carefully apply eyeliner to define your eye shape. Use kohl along your eye rims and then apply mascara on your eyelashes. It is important to note that big eyes do not require much enhancement and hence eye makeup should be kept minimal but for smaller eyes you should go for thick eye lining and also darker kohl so that the eyes look prominent.

Lips:

Apply pencil lip liner to outline your lips. It will ensure that your lipstick or gloss does not smear. Now with a lip brush apply lip color on your lips. Go for color shades that will suit your skin tone. For lasting effect, you can apply some oil-free foundation on your lips before applying lipstick. After you fill in your lip with the lip color, apply some lip gloss. This will add sparkle to your lip make up. However, you can avoid gloss if you prefer a mat look for the occasion.

Blush on:

Now accentuate your features with blush on. Roll on the brush on the apt shade and gently apply it on the side of your cheeks. Try to keep it natural and hence avoid over use of blush on. Select right color shades that will suit your complexion. For instance, while pink and beige blushes will look good on fair skin, plum and bronze shades will complement darker skin tone and for olive skin tone copper, almond and warm brown shades will be the best.

Touch up:

Always remember to carry a lipstick, a lip gloss, compact powder, some tissues and a small mirror with you. You can give a quick touch up to your face makeup in case it starts wearing off. Lastly but most importantly carry yourself confidently.

Important tips:

Use good quality cosmetics that suit your skin type and skin tone, and discard expired cosmetics because their continuous use can lead to infections. For removing the make up use oil-free makeup remover that does not clog the pores.

If you carefully follow the above mentioned tips, you are sure to learn about the right make up for your face. Moreover, with time and practice you will also discover other important details that will help you to customize the face make up procedures to suit your facial skin and features.

Essential Oils – 10 Powerful Uses For You and Your Home

admin — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 01:52:02 +0000

Essential oils are the amazing natural extracts of plants, trees and grasses from all over the world. When the leaves and plant materials are steam distilled then the resulting liquids have many powerful uses. These highly aromatic oils can be used in aromatherapy, for alternative medicinal purposes and for use in many areas of your home for some very positive results.

Here are my top ten tips for using these luxurious oils:

1. Chamomile is a wonderful aroma therapeutic oil. The soothing effects of lavender become apparent when used to quiet a nervous personality, including those of pets and horses. A larger dose also induces a deeper, more restful sleep for everyone.

2. Tea Tree Oil is from Australia and it has many uses. It can be used to rid the body of a fungus or rash. It soothes burns including sunburn and also relieves bee stings.

3. Lavender is rivalled only by Tea Tree Oil for its usefulness. Due to its aromatic and therapeutic nature, a good use for lavender essential oil is in the bath. Lavender is inherently antiseptic, antibiotic and anti-inflammatory, which is why it is an excellent treatment for minor burns, cuts and scrapes. The oil also helps prevent scarring caused by minor burns, but do not pour the oil into open wounds.

4. Peppermint Oil is one aromatic herb that can be identified by most people. It has been a favoured morning sickness remedy for centuries because not many products relieve nausea as well. Try it also when someone is experiencing motion sickness.

5. Eucalyptus is a popular remedy for tension headaches. Everyone gets a bit tense occasionally, and a dab of oil rubbed on the temples will quickly relieve the stress causing the pain, or the vial of oil may be held under the nose so it can be inhaled. It is also antibiotic and an antiseptic oil, and perfect for use in the vaporizer during cold and flu season.

6. Citronella is the best known insect repellent. Make a hair rinse of the oil and water to repel head lice, and a diluted spray of water and oil will repel fleas from pets and carpet. : A tiny dab of lavender essential oil, used undiluted on an insect bite relieves the itch quickly, and a dab behind each ear not only smells nice but acts as another natural insect repellent.

7. Rose oil is delightful, all-around fragrance oil for the home. Put a single drop of oil in the washer while it is filling with water and add a couple drops to a dishcloth and toss it in the dryer. Doing this will lend a pleasant, light aroma to the clothing.

8. Rosemary is an anti-inflammatory essential oil and also stimulates physical and mental clarity. Rosemary is good to use in muscle rubs and it also soothes arthritis.

9. Cinnamon is a formidable fungicide. Fungal infections like athletes foot and ringworm are no match for lavender’s powerful action. It is also a powerful antiviral. Be sure to buy cinnamon oil and not cassia.

10. Neroli oil has a reputation for inducing relaxation and deep, recuperative sleep.

The pure oil should never be ingested, and should not be used neat (pure and undiluted) on your skin. However, use them safely and essential oils have many exciting uses around your home for very little cost.

It is mainly the Terpenoids contained in the oil that gives it the fantastic medicinal qualities.

What is toenail fungus exactly and what are the symptoms?- Toenail fungus also referred to as Onychomycosis occurs when unseen fungal organisms enter the toe nail or even fingernail area through a break in the skin surrounding the nail or the nail self. Symptoms of the infection include thickening, crumbling and brittleness of affected nail, nail separation from bed and discoloration varying from yellow to black. An awful smelling debris may also be found underneath the nail. The little and big toes have a greater tendency to develop the infection.

How can the infection be prevented?- Toenail fungus is very easy to prevent by just following a couple of essential hygiene steps including washing your feet regularly and drying them off properly, wearing shoes, socks and hosiery that allows the feet to breath. The fungus loves damp, warm environments to breed, multiply and spread in. When using public facilities such as spa’s, sauna’s, showers and locker rooms wear suitable apparel. Don’t ever borrow or wear someone else’s shoes. Trim nails regularly with disinfected tools. Steer clear from nail varnish during infection.
