Don t Spend a Fortune on Anti-wrinkle Creams

If you want to look young, donâ t spend a fortune on anti-wrinkle creams. A study shows that the cheaper brands work just as well â " if not better â " than the more expensive ones. This was the verdict of Consumer Reports, a monthly publication of the non-profit consumer research group Consumer Union that recently tested different products to determine whether or not they could fight wrinkles. After 12 weeks of testing, researchers found that the best performer cost only $19. However, none of the products they tested was able to significantly reduce wrinkles. â The top-rated products smoothed out some fine lines and wrinkles but even the best performers reduced the average depth of wrinkles by less than 10 percent, a change barely visible to the naked eye, â according to Belinda Goldsmith of Reuters.

Many Animals Die in the Name of Beauty

Many animals suffer and die needlessly in the name of beauty to ensure that Botox injections used by millions of men and women worldwide are safe. This sad fact was uncovered by the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) that urged the public to avoid Botox for cosmetic purposes until its manufacturer Allergan stops testing the product on animals. "The HSUS acknowledges that Botox has several medical uses that are beneficial to humans and those uses should continue. But we are also aware that nearly half of the drug is for beauty enhancement. Consumers need to know that animals are suffering and enduring horrible deaths for the sole satisfaction of human vanity.

Less is More

As "stars" like Jodie Marsh grace out screens in trashy reality TV like Big Brother, young teens may start to imitate their mannerisms in the hope of 15 minute fame. I am writing this to get the message out. LESS IS MORE. And if you think that you're ugly then i'll just have to track you down and give you a not so subtle wake up call. Everyone is beautiful in their own way so stop pitying yourself. My underlying reason for writing this is to tell people what to do with make-up. Oh, a dab of blush there, concealer there and there and a few lashings of mascara. No. This is not how to apply make-up. If you're going to wear lots of make-up at least don't make it obvious that you're wearing enough to shovel off with a spade.

Suffering for Beauty s Sake

How far would you go to stay beautiful? The answer depends on where you live and societyâ s definition of beauty. Before women â torturedâ themselves with plastic surgery, Botox, and other painful cosmetic procedures, they had to endure more barbaric beauty rituals to look good. â Adhering to the modern American standard of beauty is no small task. It demands time, money, and effort. We, as a culture, subject ourselves to invasive surgical procedures and food deprivation in the name of aesthetics. But bizarre beauty rituals are certainly not new phenomena. Since the beginning of civilization, people have altered their bodies in strange and uncomfortable ways to fit cultural perceptions of beauty.

Anti-aging Products, Do They Work?

There are so many different anti aging products in the market today that it is sometimes difficult to determine which ones actually work.

This stepped-up production of sebum is bothersome because the oil gives skin a shiny appearance. Although oily skin is perceived as being moist, it may actually lack sufficient structural lipids. So one of the main objectives of this regimen is to reduce the shine without removing too much of the skin's natural moisturizers, which help optimize the skin's water content. I recommend a cleanser that is a little more active in removing the surface oils than the one I suggest for normal/combination skin. The toner is similar.
