Organic Cosmetics News and Skincare Tips

Good cosmetics are not everything. To maintain a healthy and beautiful appearance, our body needs the right amount of movement. Sport has a beneficial impact not only on our figure but also on the appearance of the skin. This is because physical activity improves blood circulation (blood transports nutrients and oxygen). After training, skin cells are oxidized and nourished, and scientific research shows that regular exercises are the key to reversing skin aging process.

Spring workouts will certainly give a positive effect on the appearance of your skin. Therefore, in this part of the blog we offer you a great exercise app that we have already tested: Daily Workouts.
This app was created with think first of all about the women, so a large emphasis was placed on exercises of lower parts of body, such as the abdomen, buttocks, thighs.

The app is free and can be downloaded from the Google Play website: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tinymission.dailyworkoutsfree&hl=en

These exercises will make that the body will acquire a beautiful shape and the skin will recover firmness and elasticity. The exercises look innocent, but I promise you that within 20 minutes you will be sweaty ;)

After the winter skin is in bad shape. There is a lot of reasons for it: winter diet richer in fat and lower in vitamins,  the time you spend mostly in the warmth of the house, air conditioning. It's no wonder that the skin is not oxygenated, devoid of firmness and seems older. To refresh the skin, I suggest the procedure in four steps.

Step one - cleansing.
Start by removing makeup from the eyes and mouth, and then the rest of your face, till to the chin and neck. Gentle stroke the skin and massage it. Remember to not rub and stretch. Best used cosmetic wipes wetted preparation to wash and change them until the last will be completely clean.
The recommended product: Double Phase Makeup Remover.

Step two - peeling.
Exfoliation of dead skin cells improves skin color for two reasons. First, we get rid of the dead layer of the epidermis, which usually has a grayish color. Secondly, massage when applying the product stimulates blood circulation in the skin and it becomes more beautiful color. Mechanical peels used for skin thicker: oily or mixed - the outer layer of the epidermis is removed, thanks to particles contained in the preparation.
The recommended product: Olive Oil Salt Scrub.
The enzymatic peeling is more appropriate to dry skin. Plant enzymes, included in its composition, dissolve dead skin without the need of friction.
The recommended product: Exfoliating Peeling Mask.

Step three - tonic or mask.
Tonic or mask is best used after peeling, because cleansed skin absorb more nutrients.
The recommended products: Aloe Vera Freshener, Relaxing Beauty Mask.

Step fourth - cream or serum.
After the winter choose products with vitamin C that brightens the skin, protects it from free radicals, strengthens blood vessels and stimulates collagen production. Excellent effects also give: vitamin A (revitalizes, smoothes the skin, lightens pigmentation), vitamin D (smoothes the skin surface, regulates the function of melanocytes).
The recommended products: Restorative Eye Cream, Eye and Neck Cream, Moisturizing Day Cream.
It is also worth to try intensely active serum with vitamin C and minerals. Preparations types serum often contain illuminating pigments, i.e. invisible to the naked eye the particles, which scatter the light, so the skin appears smoother and wrinkles - shallower.
The recommended products: Eye Lifting Serum, Face Serum.

This procedure is well to repeat in a week. I wish you beauty. ;)

Ever since last year in the pages of the portal lennyletter.com, Alicia Keys published her famous "manifesto": "Time to Uncover", which encourages women to stop hiding themselves under makeup, on Instagram began to appear photos of women without makeup. Celebrities have joined to the trend, and the number of photographs with the #nomakeup hashtag soon exceeded 13 million.
Also calendar for 2017 years released by Pirelli is decorated in a similar style. It includes portraits of actresses nearly makeup-free. The author of photos, German photographer Peter Lindbergh titled the calendar “Emotional”.
I wanted to portray women not in terms of their perfection, but through their feelings and emotions. That’s why I called this edition of the Calendar Emotional: not some artificial perfection, but the real world and the emotions that well up behind the faces of these women - Lindbergh said. The calendar includes portraits of actresses Jessica Chastain, Penélope Cruz, Nicole Kidman, Rooney Mara, Helen Mirren, Julianne Moore, Lupita Nyong’o, Charlotte Rampling, Lea Seydoux, Uma Thurman, Alicia Vikander, Kate Winslet, Robin Wright and Zhang Ziyi. Lindbergh also photographed a Russian political theory professor, Anastasia Ignatova. Rather than putting make-up on women before a photo shoot, Lindbergh captures their natural beauty and doesn’t retouch the pics.

In a time when women are represented in the media and everywhere else, as ambassadors of perfection and youth, I thought it was important to remind everyone that there is a different beauty, more real and truthful and not manipulated by commercial or any other interests, a beauty which speaks about individuality, courage to be yourself and your own private sensibility - said Lindbergh.
Photographs from the calendar confirms the thesis that the makeup for women is a supplement, not a main element of her image, it is to emphasize the qualities of beauty, and not replace it. More important than how we think, that we should look, is that with what we feel good. So in 2017 be good for yourself.

For large hyperpigmentation you should consult with a dermatologist.
In cosmetic and dermatological are professional treatments, which eliminate skin discoloration, they are:
• Chemical peels - treatments consist of peeling skin with an acid, which reduces hyperpigmentation and stimulate the growth of healthy cells.
• Microdermabrasion – the procedure consist of create a controlled vacuum, in which (released with high speed) micro-crystals fall on the surface of the skin and removing the dead cells and debris.
• Cryotherapy - freezing of spots, melanocytes are sensitive to low temperatures and decompose at a temperature of -7C. After the procedure, you should protect your skin from the sun's rays.
• Laser treatment stain removal, which involves exposing the skin area an intense source of light yellow. Contained in the skin of melatonin selectively absorbs the light, which in turn causes heating of the cell containing the dye. In a further stage of the procedure, the cells are destroyed, and the discoloration within a few hours after the treatment become darker color. The next day begins the process of exfoliation of the outer layer of the skin, lasts about 2 weeks, and leads ultimately to the disappearance of discoloration.

Using the above treatments, you should remember about strict protection of the skin from sunlight. Experts recommend carrying out such operations when there is no strong sun, so if you plan this kind of treatment, winter is a good season.
