  • Power Dressing to the Office!

    We start with Hair
    First, ensure that your hair are not wet when you come to office. Wet hair signify that you are not taking your life seriously and you cannot manage time well- something you would not want anyone to think.
    Also, no loose hair! Tie them tight! Loose hair is elegance and beauty but power dressing is something to the point and not soft. So pin them up well!
    If, you feel that loose hair suit you and you want to go for them only, well then just gel them up well so that they don’t keep falling on your face and become a distraction.

    Next goes the face!
    No point being the goth queen at office. Let us keep that for after office so while your Red lipstick is perfect, don’t make your eye makeup too loud. Keep it light, because nothing has more power than simplicity.
    Also, your ear rings. Though most of you know it already but danglers or anything hanging is a pure pollutant for your entire official-formal dress. Avoid them totally.

    The Dress
    You don’t have to restrict yourself to your usual blacks, greys and whites! Add some solid colors like dark blue, pastels too, yellow looks smart and so does red. The only point to remember- ensure the prints are solid and avoid shine!
    Shine is cute and beautiful while Power comes to solid!

    The Watch
    As per surveys, more than 80% of the people pay attention to the watch so you know that you need to keep it classy too! Keeping it classy is not a big deal- just buy the one which goes with most of your outfits. The outfits- well we have mentioned them already!

    The Last- Your Footwear!
    You can go for any footwear, it is all perfectly fine! Just that if you go for peeptoes which you will many a times, ensure you have had a good pedicure because if your feet/toes look dirty- it just kills it!

    So! Keep these tidbits in check!

    See you soon!

  • Vitamin D for Skin, Hair & Body

    Vitamin D is very important for many functions in the body.

    • It Supports cardiovascular health and regulates blood pressure
    • Important in the absorption of certain nutrients such as calcium and phosphorus
    • Plays a part in regulating insulin and blood sugar levels
    • Supports the immune system

    Sources of Vitamin D

    Unlike other vitamins, vitamin D is not naturally found in food. Our body is able to synthesize vitamin D by processing sunlight when it hits the skin. On average, we need about 10 – 15 minutes of sunlight exposure every day.

    For those who do not receive adequate sun exposure, vitamin D deficiency is often a result. Vitamin D deficiency can cause many problems such as fatigue, weakened bones, joint pain, muscle cramping and other problems.

    In cases of vitamin D deficiency or in cases for those who do not have adequate sun exposure where they live, vitamin D can be obtained from foods fortified with vitamin D such as milk, orange juice and cheese and cereals. Other natural sources of vitamin D include seafood such as salmon and tuna.

    Try to enjoy the mild morning sun because this is the commonest source of vitamin D. You can also eat vitamin D rich foods such as fish oil, eggs, organic meats, etc. Your doctor may suggest high dose vitamin D supplementation if it’s too low.

    10 Beauty Benefits of Vitamin D

    1. Promotes Beautiful Skin
      The skin is the largest organ. The state of the skin is often a good indicator of the health of the body. Vitamin D is very vital for the proper functioning of the skin.
    2. Treats Acne
      If you are suffering from persistent acne, supplementing with vitamin D can do wonders for your skin. Many of those battling with severe acne actually find a significant reduction in acne when supplementing with vitamin D.
    3. Heals Psoriasis
      Stress is a known aggravator for psoriasis and vitamin D is an important regulator of stress. Vitamin D can help reduce inflammation, redness and swelling in psoriasis. Supplementing with vitamin D can help prevent psoriasis flare-ups.
    4. Reduces the Appearance of Stretch Marks
      Vitamin D is helps in the overall function of skin and helps prevent stretch marks by increasing the elasticity of the skin. It helps in the proper formation of skin to help reduce the occurrence of stretch marks, scars and dark spots.
    5. Prevents Premature Aging of Skin
      Premature aging is when the skin starts developing wrinkles, fine lines, skin tags and age spots at a young age. It often occurs as a result of free radical damage on the skin. Vitamin D acts as an antioxidant to combat oxidative stress and free radical damage on the skin.
    6. Treats Eczema
      Eczema is characterized by rough inflamed patches of skin that can form blisters that can cause itching and bleeding. Vitamin D can help treat conditions such as eczema. It can help greatly reduce the symptoms of eczema such as dryness, itchiness, inflammation, and pain.
    7. Relieves Rosacea
      Rosacea is a chronic, relapsing condition characterized by redness and pimples mostly on the facial region. Vitamin D reduces swelling and redness of skin. It can help treat and manage rosacea.
    8. Promotes Hair Growth
      Vitamin D receptors found in hair follicles play a vital role in the growth and resting cycles of the hair. Vitamin D signals to the keratinocytes found in the follicles to stimulate the growth of hair.
    9. Prevents Hair Loss
      One of the signs of vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency is actually hair loss. Healthy hair follicles have a good supply of vitamin that allows them to function properly. Vitamin D is often lacking in damaged hair follicles and this leads to hair loss.
    10. Helps in Maintaining a Healthy Weight
      Lack of vitamin D can lead to weight gain and difficulty in losing weight. Insufficient vitamin D in the blood, makes the body convert calories to fat at a rapid rate. Vitamin D is also needed for the absorption of nutrients such as calcium, which aid in weight loss.

    Caution When Taking Vitamin D!
    If you suspect you have vitamin D deficiency, consult a doctor before self-diagnosing. The doctor will confirm your vitamin D levels through a blood test. Overdose of vitamin D is very fatal, toxic and can lead to death!!

  • Quit Smoking before its too late!

    Pale Appearance / Uneven Skin tone:
    Smoking chronically deprives the skin of oxygen and nutrients. So some smokers appear pale and develop uneven coloring.

    Premature Aging & Sagging:
    There are more than 4,000 chemicals in tobacco smoke, and many of them trigger the destruction of collagen and elastin. These are the fibers that give your skin its strength and elasticity. The nicotine in cigarettes causes narrowing of the blood vessels in the outermost layers of your skin. This impairs blood flow to your skin. With less blood flow, your skin doesn’t get as much oxygen and important nutrients, such as vitamin A. As a result, skin begins to sag and wrinkle prematurely because of smoking.

    Effect on Body:
    Smoking not only damage the appearance of your face, but it may also take a toll on your figure. As skin loses its elasticity, parts that were once firm may begin to droop. This includes the inner arms and breasts.

    Deep Lines around Lips:
    Smokers use certain muscles around their lips that cause them to have dynamic wrinkles. The loss of elasticity and the wrinkles, together can lead to deep lines around the lips.

    Age Spots:
    Age spots are dark patches that develop on the face and hands. While anyone can develop these spots from spending too much time in the sun, research suggests smokers are more susceptible to these.

    Development of Psoriasis:
    Recent studies suggest smokers have a greater risk of developing psoriasis. Psoriasis is a chronic condition that most often causes thick, scaly patches on the skin – usually on the knees, elbows, scalp, hands, feet, or back. The patches may be white, red, or silver.

    Crows Feet around Eyes:
    Chemicals from inhaled tobacco cause internal damage to the skin structures and blood vessels around your eyes. Heat from burning cigarettes and squinting to keep smoke out of your eyes contribute to visible crow’s feet.

    Increases Hair Fall / Gray Hair:
    Both men and women tend to develop thinner hair as they age, but smoking can accelerate this process. Smoking negatively affects your circulation in general which means impaired blood flow to your hair follicles. Also, smokers are 4 times more likely to have gray hair than nonsmokers as smoke causes free-radical damage which destroys the little color sacs in each hair follicle.

    Smoking can affect parts of your body that can make you look ugly!

    People who smoke tend to develop gum disease, persistent bad breath, and other oral hygiene problems. Think your hand looks sexy with a cigarette perched between your fingers? If you’ve been smoking for a while, take a good look at your fingernails and the skin of your hands. Tobacco can actually stain the skin and nails, as well as the teeth. The good news is these stains tend to fade when you quit smoking.

    Why should you quit smoking NOW?

    Quitting smoking can help you look more vibrant and healthy – which is exactly how you’ll feel, too. Quitting smoking can improve your appearance. As blood flow gets better, your skin receives more oxygen and nutrients. This can help you develop a healthier complexion. If you stay tobacco-free, the stains on your fingers and nails will disappear. You may even notice your teeth getting whiter.

    Even your hair will show more shine and luster, and possibly stay in place longer, when you finally get around to quitting smoking.

    Reward yourself with a couple of skin treatments. Laser skin resurfacing and chemical peels remove outer layers of skin, where the damage is most visible. When you see the benefits of better-looking skin, you may be motivated to stay nicotine-free forever.

  • Cucumber: One of the best summer fruits for your skin & hair!

    Get flawless skin
    Cucumber juice is ideal to be used as a cleanser to relive blemishes and acne. Cucumbers have the same pH like your skin, so it helps the natural healing process of your skin. Cucumber also has skin tightening properties. It cleanses the skin removing impurities and dead skin cells and tightens the pores, leaving them smaller and less likely to become clogged.

    Anti-aging properties of cucumber
    A member of the melon family, Cucumbers contain vitamin C, an antioxidant – but remember not to peel the skin as that’s where most of the vitamin C is located. The presence of ascorbic acid, or vitamin C, makes cucumber juice a particular effective ingredient in anti-wrinkle products. Its seeds are rich in Vitamin E and potassium which help in reducing fine lines, wrinkles, blemishes and other signs of ageing.

    Hydrates, soothes & energizes
    A great source of B vitamins and so it will energize you instantly. Pantothenic acid, or vitamin B-5, found in cucumbers help your skin retain moisture. Cucumbers have high water content and a cooling quality, making them appropriate to help soothe mild burns, particularly sunburn. They can also reduce swelling and relieve minor skin irritations. Cucumbers are also a source of vitamin A, vitamin D, fiber, sulfur and calcium.They provide you with skin-friendly minerals potassium and magnesium.

    Dark Circles
    They also have plenty of vitamin K, also an antioxidant, which fights dark circles under the eyes. This skin lightening effect can also make your skin appear youthful and glowing. This is why a couple of cucumber slices placed over tired eyes can make you look refreshed.

    Puffy eyes
    Cucumbers contain ascorbic and caffeic acids, which are good for bringing down under-eye puffiness and swelling under the eyes.

    Combats dark spots
    The vitamin A, or retinol, in cucumbers fights dark spots and freckles because it helps control your skin’s production of melanin and thereby even out the skin tone. Minerals and vitamins present in cucumber are best for skin care. Cucumber juice is a natural skin lightening agent which ultimately helps to improve skin tone naturally.

    Cucumbers for Hair
    Cucumbers are one of the most effective natural alternative treatments for dealing with thinning hair and promoting hair growth. The juice of the cucumber has strong properties that can slow down the process of hair loss. The juice of the cucumber contains manganese, silicon, potassium, phosphorus, calcium, sulfur and sodium; all of these are beneficial for the hair. Not only can the juice boost hair growth, but it can also provide you with shiny, smooth, and manageable hair.

    You may now savor salads garnished with cucumbers more than what you used to do before!

  • WARNING: Exercise has been known to cause “Good Health and Happiness”

    RADIANT SKIN

    When you get your heart really pumping, the blood vessels that lie close to the skin surface dilate and the living layers of your skin receive a nice delivery of oxygenated blood and nutrients. This gives the skin a healthy, vibrant appearance and that glow is maintained for hours after a workout.

    ACNE RELIEF

    Regular exercise boosts circulation. Blood and oxygen flowing through the skin help draw toxins out of the body, including toxins that clog pores. Also sweating helps propel those toxins, oils and dirt out of your pores.
    Working out corrects the hormonal imbalance that can cause adult acne as exercise produces endorphins and helps reduce your stress levels. Stress reduction and endorphins help decrease cortisol and other acne-provoking hormones.

    LESS WRINKLES

    Did you know that too much stress related hormone cortisol will increase collagen breakdown? This can increase wrinkles and sagging. Working out also helps maintain healthy levels of cortisol and support the production of collagen, that helps to keep your skin firm, supple, and elastic.

    HEALTHY HAIR

    The improved blood flow helps keep your hair stronger and healthier. This blood, full of nutrients, stimulates the hair follicles and promotes growth. Exercise is also a big stress reliever. Lower stress means your hair is less likely to be brittle and, worse, fall out.

    TONE THE MUSCLES

    When our bodies are toned our skin takes on a more toned appearance and we have the healthier and more youthful look.

    SKIN REPAIR

    Exercise also helps you rest and sleep better. Your body and skin need repair time and does it best when you’re sleeping well. Research has also suggested that regular physical activity can help your skin repair itself faster.

    Apart from knowing about the positive effects that exercise can have on your skin there are a few cautions to consider

    • If you are exercising outdoors remember to protect your skin from the damaging sunrays by applying your sunscreen before you get started.
    • Keep your exposed skin as covered as possible; avoid working out during peak sun times, which is usually between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m.
    • Tight fitting exercise clothing coupled with sweating can lead to skin irritations. Avoid clothing that is too tight and apply a moisturizer or powder to the areas that are most prone to irritation.
    • If swimming is your exercise of choice, be sure to rinse off as soon as possible. Chlorinated pools and salt water can both be dehydrating to the skin and the hair.
    • After exercise shower as soon as possible. Make sure that you’re cleansing your face and other areas that generally breakout .
    • Avoid exercising with makeup on your face.

    You may not always love the workout, but you will definitely love the results. Exercise is stress management, better sleep and healthy body. And these all add up to a more radiant and gorgeous you.So take care of your body, it is the only place you have to live in.
