9 Skin Emergencies and how to fight them up

Emerging Pimple
To stop redness and swelling in an emergency situation (job interview, reunion, wedding), ask your doctor for a cortisone injection. It calms down a pimple almost instantly. If you can’t get to your dermatologist, you can reduce redness and swelling by dabbing on a drop of drugstore cortisone cream hemorrhoid cream, or eye drops.

overnight treatment
Rub ice on an emerging pimple for 30 to 40 seconds. Apply clove oil and leave it on until it dries completely.

tea tree oil
Massage a touch of tee tree oil around the area of the pimple to anesthetize it and encourage healing. Use a nonliquid concealer to match your foundation. Dab a little on the blemish, wait a couple of seconds, then blend lightly with a fingertip. Dust with loose powder.

Acne Rash
Take yellow eye shadow and mix it with your concealer. Apply it to the area and allow to dry. Then cover with your regular foundation. Even it out by gently blotting your face with a separated tissue.

Puffy Eyes
Take some cold spoons and place them under the eye area. Simply run them under cold water for a few seconds, or even better, keep them in the freezer so they’ll be ready when it’s the “morning after” or when you just didn’t get enough sleep.

Body Chafing
If there’s no medicated powder around, use a little cornstarch. It contains fabulous absorbing powers, and you may find it even more effective.

Chapped Lips
Rub on a little petroleum jelly, then use a toothbrush to brush your lips in little circular motions.The toothbrush will exfoliate the dead skin while the petroleum jelly will provide a base so your lipstick glides on.

Cold Sore
There are medications for cold sores and fever blisters. If you don’t have any on hand, take an aspirin and apply it, slightly dampened, to the sore. Hold it there for at least three minutes. Keep the sore and its surrounding area clean and dry to fight bacteria.
Eat a bland diet, avoiding chocolate, nuts, or gelatinbased products. These foods may irritate the sore and cause further infection.

Excess Self-Tanner
Soak in a warm bath for about 20 minutes using baking soda as body scrub.

Bad Sunburn
Take an aspirin to reduce the inflammation. Bathe in a tub of vinegar and warmwater (use about a pint of vinegar).
Moisturize the skin with yogurt or nonfat milk.

Fragrance Overload
Swab the skin with an alcohol-soaked cotton pad. Then smooth on unscented lotion to remoisturize and help diffuse the fragrance even further.

Face Masks to Try for Skin Care

Ultimate Cleansing Mask
In a blender or food processor, grind 1 cup of oatmeal to a powder. Add 3 drops of almond oil, 1/2 cup of milk, and 1 egg white. Continue to blend together, and apply. Rinse off after 20 minutes.

Peach and Brandy
Mash up a peach (use ripe, canned, or frozen) and mix in a tablespoon of brandy. Leave it on for 20 minutes, and rinse off.

Tomato Mask
For oily skin,mash up a ripe tomato and leave it on for 15 to 20 minutes. Rinse with warm (not hot) water.

Banana Mask
Mash up a very ripe banana. Add just enough honey to make a soft pulp.Apply over face and hair.This is such a great firming mask that aging movie stars have been known to put it in the cups of their bras to make their breasts “perky.”
Just make sure that you don’t add too much honey, and that you use a sturdy bra. I recently did a TV show where I attempted to use a lacy bra. Needless to say, it was a little messy!

Honey Mask
Apply pure honey (straight from the bottle) to your face and neck. Allow it to set until dry (about 15 minutes). Rinse with very warm water.

Milk of Magnesia
Oil-Absorbing Mask

Apply it straight from the bottle. Let it dry for about five to ten minutes. Rinse off with warm water.
Gently pat face dry with fluffy towel.

Pepto-Bismol

This is a face mask particularly suited for those with sensitive skin. In the same way that this product coats the stomach, it gently caresses the face. Apply it straight from the bottle with a cotton swab.
Allow it to dry and rinse with cool water. It’s as refreshing as a cool summer breeze.

The 8-Step Perfect Manicure

1. File
Using an emery board, file nails straight up at the sides. Don’t file sides of nails inward. The thinner your nail, the finer the emery board should be.

2. Cuticles
Apply cuticle softener to the edges of the nail. Massage gently with fingertips. If cuticles are very brittle, warm the softener in the microwave for a few seconds before applying.

3. Soak
Soak fingers in warm, soapy water. If fingers are discolored or dirty, take a tablet of denture cleanser and dissolve it in the water, or add a lime bleach.

4.Trim
Using a cuticle pusher/cutter (available at drugstores), push the cuticle back, and cut any excess hangnails. Don’t cut in to your cuticle, because it will cause it to bleed.

5. Massage
Apply a moisturizer all over the hands, rubbing into the nails and cuticles. Distress by massaging the inside palm with your thumb.

6.Wipe
Dip a cotton ball in an astringent (like witch hazel or lemon juice), and remove any excess oil.This is necessary to allow polish to go on smoothly without bubbling.

7. Base Coat
Apply a base coat or primer, and allow to dry.

8. Final Coat
Brush on a one-coat polish. Look for the kind that contains both a color and top coat. It’s just as good and a great time-saver.

Beauty Solutions for Aged People For Skin Care

The skin becomes more sensitive in old age; hence it demands a lot of care and attention. Menopause normally happens gradually between 45 and 55 years of age. After menopause the amount of estrogen produced by a woman slows down dramatically. As a result changes occur in the skin, which is highly sensitive to estrogen. Older people have to deal with the normal aging process of the skin. In aged women and men, the skin dries and thins because the sebaceous glands slow down and even gathers pace. The elastin fibers lose their structure, the dermis becomes less resilient, and the skin becomes wrinkled and sags. It is never too late to take care of the skin, no matter of what age group you belong to.

Here are some beauty solutions for improving your age beauty with proper skin care.

As you grow older, the skin becomes dry. You must exfoliate the skin. This will remove dead skin cells. The cell division will increase and will perform more youthfully. If you use almond scrub and tap the skin then also the cell division will increase.

Apply face pack once a week. This will prove to be very beneficial. Take a teaspoon of whipped cream, a few drops of lavender oil and a pinch of alum. Mix them together and apply this mixture. Leave it for about 20 minutes and then rinse with lukewarm water.

Regularly clean your face with some mild soap twice or thrice a day. You should take care of your skin by keeping it always clean. You should wash your feet, armpits etc with water and soap taking proper care. Bathing regularly is necessary for healthy skin.

Aged people get more prone to feet problems. They get problems like corns, warts, fungal infection, blisters etc. You should consult doctor for such things. However what you can do at home is cleaning your feet with warm water. Remember to wash your nails properly!

In Rainy season you need to take more care of your skin because you get muddy water on your feet which contain germs. Your skin thus gets infected. You should wash it with some antiseptic in water.

If you want to shine with your age beauty then prevent your skin from sun burning. For this avoid getting out in heavy sunlight. If you get exposed to sun when the sun is on the top your skin is likely to burn or get dark. To protect your skin from sunburn, you should apply some lotion and were hat, use umbrella etc.

Skin is very sensitive organ. Don’t itch it if you feel like itching. Itching spoils the beauty of your skin. Massage your skin with Vitamin E oil. Vitamin E is vital for skin.
