But first, here are many Skin Care Tips from A to Z.
I trust you will find them helpful.
Aging Skin
The thickened skin texture associated with middle age is caused
by cellular build up. It responds very well to mild, abrasive daily
cleansing with beauty grains such as finely ground corn meal, ground
sun flowers or almonds. Massage gently to cleanse and stimulate.
Beautiful Skin
To make or keep your skin beautiful, it's best to work
from the inside.
Eating the right kind of food can do you more good than
any medicine, and go a long way in helping your body's own healing
forces. Eat a balanced diet that includes raw foods, plenty of yellow
and orange vegetables (they contain beta carotene - a precursor
to vitamin A). Foods high in sulfur such as garlic, onions, asparagus
and eggs. Include fruits, seeds, grains and nuts.
Many find Stevens
Skin Softener Cream very helpful for these situations.
Dry Skin
Blend together one ounce safflower oil, one ounce avocado
oil and two ounces of sesame oil. Apply this to your dry skin areas.Skin
Care Tip on Facial Mask
An excellent facial mask can be made with stewed and mashed
apricots. Apply to your freshly cleaned face and leave for 20 minutes
or longer. Rinse away with warm water, and blot dry. One application
will help sallow, dead skin tones, but applying this 3 or 4 times
a week will do wonders.
Tea Tree Oil for Fungal Infection
If you suffer from fungal infections of the nail, the most
effective natural anti fungal is tea tree oil. Apply to the nails
and surrounding skin twice daily, in the morning and at bedtime
Using Honey Treatments
Honey applied under a dry dressing every two or thee days
promotes rapid healing of ulcers and burns.
Stevens
Skin Softener Cream provides many important nutrients.
Itchy Skin
Try the following. A compress made with skim milk or powdered
milk or soak the affected area in a colloidal bath made with oatmeal,
corn starch or baking soda.
Homemade Skin Lotion
The following body lotion is easy to make, and can be used
after bathing. Mix one teaspoonful of honey, one teaspoon of lemon
juice and a half cup of water. Massage into your skin after bathing.
Many find Stevens
Skin Softener Cream very helpful for these situations.
Mayonnaise for dry Facial
If you have a tendency towards dry facial skin, a gentle
daily massage with mayonnaise will do wonders. You can use lemon
juice, egg and safflower or other such oil to make your own dry
skin lotion.
Oily Skin
Here is a cleansing stimulating facial treatment that is
very helpful for those with oily skin. Mash together the pulp of
one garden ripe tomato and enough fuller's earth (should find it
at most pharmacies) to make a smooth paste. Rub it into your skin
and leave it on until it dries completely (note: do not apply to
eye area). Rinse with warm water, then splash your face with cold
water. Blot dry.
Treating Large Pores
If you have large pores that resemble little holes on your
skin, the following steps may be helpful. Stop using commercial
products on your skin. Instead, use homemade skin cleansers. Splash
warm water onto your face and pour half a handful of stone-ground
cornmeal into your wet palm. Massage the moistened meal into your
entire face area, adding water as needed. Another homemade cleanser
can be made by adding a few drops of lemon or lime juice or apple
cider vinegar to milk (use powdered skin milk if your skin is oily).
Soak yarrow (check health food stores or botanical supply
stores for this herb) in water overnight, and apply this astringent
several times a day - less frequently if your skin is dry.
Avoid all creams. Use an unsaturated vegetable oil if you
need to (e.g. vitamin E oil).
Rashes
Whether it's diaper rash, chicken pox, measles, insect
bites or hives, corn starch can provide relief. For measles and
chicken pox, bathe in a tub of water to which a large handful of
cornstarch has been added. For the other rashes rub the cornstarch
on as a powder.
Softening Your Skin
Avocado oil used regularly is an excellent skin softener.
It is in rich in vitamins and minerals, especially the skin vitamins
A, C and E.
Teenagers
Many teenagers have to deal with embarrassing skin problems.
taking supplements of zinc and Vitamin A will go a long way in helping
them relieve these problems.
Many find Stevens
Skin Softener Cream very helpful for these situations.
Ulcers
Leg ulcers are more likely to develop in persons with poor
circulation, thrombophlebitis and/or varicose veins. To speed healing,
apply vitamin E oil to the sore and bandage it lightly with a sterile
gauze pad. Change the bandage daily until the sore is healed.
Vitamins and Your Skin
Vitamins are essential to the health of your skin, especially
vitamins A, B, C and E. Vitamin E is especially helpful to improve
your complexion when applied externally.
Winter Care
The air inside your house can get very dry in the winter.
This will play a major part in aggravating your dry skin condition.
To add humidity the dry air in your house, put a little extra water
in the kettle when you're boiling water. Leave the kettle on the
burner as it cools. It will continue to steam for 10 to 15 minutes,
making your life a whole lot more comfortable.
Zinc for Acne
Not enough zinc, caused by a diet high in refined carbohydrates
may be the chief cause of acne. Zinc is necessary for processing
carbohydrates, but it is removed when cane is refined into white
sugar, and wheat is refined into white flour. Eat more foods rich
in zinc, including soybeans, whole grains, sunflower seeds, and
a small amount of raw nuts daily. Zinc also has antibacterial activity,
and is a necessary element in the oil-producing glands of the skin.
