Beauty Solutions for Different Ages - Shahnaz Husain

Twenties & Thirties During the twenties and thirties, basic skin care should be geared towards maintenance and protection, so that the skin does not begin to age prematurely. All make-up should be removed before bedtime, so that the skin is allowed to “breathe.” Have regular salon facials to tone and protect the skin. The 30s are the child bearing years. Seek help for chloasma (dark patches), common during pregnancy. Protect the skin with sunscreen to preserve youthful qualities. Forties Protection of the skin is even more important as one grows older. Apply sunscreen before going out in the sun. Regular exfoliation with masks or scrubs helps to improve the process of cell renewal and preserve youthful qualities of the skin. Pay attention to the daily care of the area around eyes, with a light massage and application of under-eye creams and lotions. Have salon facials, with massage, toning and nourishing on a daily basis to help delay visible ageing signs. Anti-ageing facials are available, like Plant Stem Cells and Platinum Facials Moisturised cleansers, masks and make up items should be used. Intensive moisturisation will help normal to dry skin. Fifties and Sixties Daily nourishment with a light massage will help to keep the skin soft and youthful. Massage the skin at night, after cleansing. While massaging, pay more attention to the neck area and area around eyes. They tend to age faster. Have weekly salon facials with nourishment, toning, mask and protection.

Acne Treatment for Teenage Girl - Shahnaz Husain

Acne usually occurs on an oily skin. That is why it is common during teenage, when the body goes through hormonal activity, which also activates the oil glands. Daily cleansing and skin care, with appropriate products, is the only way of protecting the skin from acne. The pores must be kept free of hardened oil and the oiliness of the skin surface should be reduced. If the skin is oily, an astringent skin tonic should be used after cleansing. Wipe the face with it, using cotton wool. Some natural ingredients, like cucumber, have an astringent effect. Apply cucumber juice by itself on the face and wash it off with plain water after 15 minutes. Or, mix cucumber juice with a little rose water, for an astringent-toner.
