How To Look Younger Than Your Age

How To Look Younger Than Your Age

Have you ever been told you look younger than you really are? I’m sure it made your day.
After all, youth means beauty in our culture. And a young, beautiful face is impossible to ignore.

There’s one thing that defines a youthful appearance more than anything else – your skin.

Today I want to show you two natural and effective ways to support and firm your skin so you can have the youngest and best looking skin possible.

First, for a younger, smoother look, you’ll want to make sure your skin has lots of collagen.

Collagen is a group of proteins that together form the building blocks for your skin (and connective tissue).
Collagen gives volume, flexibility and strength to your skin and is what makes it look healthy and young.
It makes up the majority of the dermis, which is the layer of skin just below the surface.

Collagen Levels In Skin

Over time, your collagen breaks down. When that happens, we say our skin is “aging.”

But what we’re really saying is that we are beginning to see diminished facial volume and elasticity. The loss of elasticity and volume results in wrinkles, more sagginess, and more lines.

But you can increase your collagen naturally to give you a fuller face, fewer wrinkles and lines, and help you look younger.

One way to do this is with a truly effective, Is our Collagen Booster capsules
. It encourages collagen stimulation.

Collagen Booster has powerful ingredients designed to improve your skin’s health and appearance.

It also is a natural source of hyaluronic acid (HA)
which also promotes the ability of collagen to retain moisture in your skin, acting as a sponge soaking up moisture.

Lifecell Collagen

These compounds and antioxidants help build collagen and elastin. This gives your skin more firmness, elasticity and flexibility to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

The second way to easily have fuller, more youthful looking skin is our LifeCell Cream, which is our No 1 product. 

Whilst I share this information on Collagen Stimulation we know the LifeCell cream is your first option always.

What Can Erase Wrinkles In Only 8 hours And Doesn't Cost A Cent?

Beauty Sleep

Sleep!

Getting enough sleep is good for your health, but it’s great for your skin. Think of sleep as your nightly face lift. You’re giving your skin a chance to repair itself.

While you’re dreaming, your skin is renewed and restored. Your skin texture improves, because old, dead skin cells are replaced. Harmful effects from your daily life are reversed. You literally wake with a new glow.

Many things can keep you from getting 8 hours. Work, friends, your favorite TV show, or a good book. But sleep needs to be on the top of your priority list.

When you wake up in the morning after not getting enough sleep, what do you see in the mirror? Your eyes look hollow, and your cheeks sink in. You look old before your time. Researchers found without sleep, your body begins to waste away, the same as if you were starving yourself to death.

By losing sleep, you rob your immune system of the energy it needs to fight infection. You’ll catch more colds and flu viruses. In one study, animals that lost seven hours of sleep came down with viruses even after they were immunized. The animals that got enough sleep did not. Immunization had no effect without enough sleep.Melatonin For Beauty Sleep

When you lose sleep, you look old and sick for a reason. Your skin cells can’t repair themselves. When you lose your defense system, bacteria and other invaders can cause blemishes or reactions like swollen eyes and dark circles.

A great way to improve your sleep quality is by increasing the level of melatonin in your body. Melatonin is a natural, protective hormone. The amount you have decreases as you age.
Melatonin helps you fall asleep and keeps you sleeping deeper throughout the night.

Melatonin has many benefits. One is its beautifying effect on the skin. Melatonin helps in the production of collagen and elastin to keep your skin firm and young looking. It’s a potent antioxidant that fights against damage that causes your skin to wrinkle and age.

To increase melatonin naturally, make sure you spend time each day in bright, natural sunlight. Then go to sleep in a completely dark bedroom. Make sure you don’t have the TV running or a night light on. Wear a sleep mask if you have to. Any light at all, no matter how tiny, will disrupt the production of melatonin.

Sleeping Beauty Eye Mask

You can also a purchase melatonin supplement at most vitamin shops. You can get a pill to swallow, but I suggest you look for drops, or a sublingual that melts under your tongue. It’s easier to absorb and works fast.

Only a small amount is necessary. Take it 20 minutes before you want to fall asleep. Start with 0.5 mg and work your way up to 3 mg. Larger doses don’t have the same effect. So don’t take too much, or it won’t work.

Creating Better Habits for Vitality

How-to-Gain-Vitality-in-your-Life

While some people think they need to overhaul their whole lifestyle in order to look and feel younger, there are simple and speedy things you can do in just a few minutes that could add up to big results. You may see this and think, “That’s common sense,” and yes it is, but if you actually DO it, you’ll feel and look better.

Exercise. I always say, “Exercise is the fountain of youth” and spending hours at the gym just isn’t feasible for women on the go. Instead, spend about 15 minutes each morning doing a shorter routine. A short exercise or a stretching routine, or warm up, then find an area in your community where you walk very briskly or run up a hill, and go as far as you can the first time, then each day keep adding to the distance, this helps to expand our lungs and strengthens our heart etc. I personally put this to the test and found enormous benefits of wellbeing. Allows more oxygen into our blood stream. Giving a great feeling of well being, always cool down after this routine. This assist greatly to keep your body youthful and full of vitality.

Watch what you eat. You don’t necessarily have to eliminate junk and comfort food completely from your diet. The key is to make healthier choices most of the time and consume smaller portions. Try – super-size your veggies and half-size everything else.Creaing Better Habits

Eliminate bad habits. We all have our vices but try to limit nicotine, excessive alcohol intake and baking in the sun, all of which are proven to accelerate the aging process.  If you can’t resist these temptations completely, at least try to cut down – every little bit helps.

Looking and feeling younger doesn’t require a lot of time or money. Following these easy tips and keeping a consistent routine could be just what you need to take a few years off your look. 

Framingham Heart Study

The smaller your lungs, the greater concern there is for challenges. The ground-breaking Framingham Heart Study looked at data stretching back six decades and concluded your lungs tell you how long you’ll live. This ongoing research is particularly convincing for two reasons: it’s the longest running study in medical history and it has no involvement from the big drug companies.

Doctors involved in the Framingham study, William B. Kannel and Helen Hubert, both from the Boston School of Medicine concluded: your lungs are the number one predictor of death. To put another piece of this monumental discovery in their own words, here’s what they said: “This pulmonary function measurement appears to be an indicator for general health and vigour.”

Does Cardio Exercise Help You Lose Weight?

Cardio

Let’s look at different forms of exercise and what some of our anti-ageing doctors are saying.

When we say “cardio” we are not talking about going for a brisk walk… spending a few minutes on an elliptical machine… or swimming a few laps.

“Cardio” is short for cardiovascular endurance training. It’s the idea that you have to raise your heart rate for a long duration – at least 20 minutes, and usually much more. It’s when you spend 45 minutes on a treadmill, or run for miles every day. Or take an hour-long aerobics class.

This kind of exercising to exhaustion is just not natural.

cardiovascular-exercise

Your ancestors didn’t jog for miles at a time. They didn’t jump around for an hour doing aerobics. They had short bursts of activity – sprinting to catch food, or to avoid being food. That’s how they stayed lean and strong.

The concept of cardiovascular endurance exercise – like marathon running or aerobics – goes against how your body was built to move.

And it can hurt you in the long run.

What’s worse is the advice of today’s fitness “experts” who tell you to do cardio so that you can get into the “fat-melting zone.”

The trouble is, you don’t want to be in the fat-melting zone.

Every time you enter that zone, you’re programming your body to use fat for fuel.
You’re sending a signal that you need fat.Exercise For Reducing Fat

And your body responds by storing it up so you’ll have fuel to burn.

Let me say that again…

Cardio Can Make You Store Fat!

You see, it doesn’t matter how much fat you melt while running on the treadmill… or how many hours you spend at the gym… or whether you do one of those workout DVDs.

All that matters is what happens to your body when you stop.

When you finish a cardio workout, your body goes to work storing fat to fuel your next workout. That’s why those last few stubborn pounds never seem to come off by just doing more cardio.

The cardio is working against you. An Anti-Cardio program restores your body’s natural metabolism and re-trains your body to store energy in your muscles, just like your ancestors did…

And it reprograms your body to dump that extra fat.

Facial Polishing

Skin Polishing

Facial Brushing in simple words is a special technique of exfoliating skin. The dead cells are removed which helps new and healthy cells to come in place of that and the skin looks clean and polished.

It was a challenge to find just the right brush to optimize my facial routine. I tried many different brushes but found that they were all too soft. Even battery powered exfoliating sets come with a separate facial brush that turns soft and mushy when turned on. You might as well use a sponge instead of most of the facial brushes out there. I finally discovered one that was effective and appealing. Unlike other brushes, it is not too soft.
Many beauty books tell you that you should not exfoliate more than twice per week. However, when you eat raw foods, your skin heals much faster. At first, you must be gentle while brushing, but gradually you can brush more vigorously. Your face will begin to glow!


TESTIMONIALS
:

“I have been using the brush for 4 days now and I cannot believe how smooth my skin looks. This morning I actually walked out of the house without having to put any makeup on. That’s unheard of.” –Ti.

“Three days after using the brush, my husband says to me, “You look prettier. Are you exfoliating?” My jaw hit the floor. I couldn’t believe he noticed! (And I didn’t know he knew what “exfoliation” meant!) My skin is clearer and less prone to breakouts. I love my brush and use it faithfully. Thank you!” –A.C.

“It has taken me many months to begin to use the dry facial brush and the masque removing brush as part of my daily routine. I am not especially looking for ‘beauty” but rather for healthy looking skin. Since December 2010, when I finally began to routinely use the facial brushes, I have definitely observed an improvement in the tone and appearance of my face and neck area. Additionally, the blackheads that I have had for 66 years are not as large … I don’t know whether this is directly related to my use of the facial brushing or if my skin is changing due to my age; however, I do know that I will continue to use the facial brushes for the remainder of my life.” –C.K.

Cleaning Up For Your Life?

Clean Up Your Life

This year, my suggestion is to move beyond the traditional routine of cleaning out your cupboards and closets and consider rearranging and reorganizing other areas of your life.

Things like your exercise routine, your makeup drawer and your mind.

Below are some of the most effective ways to clean up your life.

Tips for Cleaning, assisting with Anti-Ageing of our bodies and lifting our Spirits.

Makeup Drawer

Clean out your makeup drawer – Clearing out your makeup drawer once a year makes room for new products and colors. As you clean out your makeup drawer, take time to wash your brushes thoroughly. Natural oils and embedded makeup accumulate deep in the bristles over time, which invites bacteria.

I recommend Enviro Clean dishwashing liquid as a quick way to remove oil from brushes thoroughly. It’s even used to clean birds and other wildlife that have been exposed to oil spills. If it can clean the birds, it can certainly remove oil from your brushes.This is especially true if you’re like most women and you accumulate cosmetics by the bagful over the course of a year.

Another advantage is you’ll likely find products at the bottom of your makeup case or drawer that Purge The Fridgeyou forgot about. Like that fabulous pink lipstick you bought but never wore.

Purge the Fridge – This is a good time to go through the refrigerator and throw away all your expired foods.
It’s easy to dispose of spoiled fruits and vegetables when they’re past their prime,
but it’s a little harder to pay attention to expiration dates on cans and bottles.
I like to read the expiration dates every few weeks just to make sure everything I eat is fresh.

Reshape Your Attitude –This is a way of raising your spirits, especially if you tend to suffer from the winter blues.
Make the most of this uplifting time and write out a list of all the things for which you feel grateful.
This will remind you of all the blessings in your life and will lift your spirits. After all, gratitude is good for the soul.
Plus, gratitude has a magical way of zapping away anger, disappointment and anything else that might be making you feel bad.
I also encourage you to dispel old grudges, call a friend you may have had a falling out with, or stop procrastinating and finally start that new project you want to tackle.

Attitude Of Gratitude

Let this be a time for renewal, reorganization and revitalization in your life!

More thoughts on reshaping your attitude next week.

Here’s to remaining youthful!

Your Body Purification Regime

Body Purification

In today’s world, your body is constantly exposed to toxins and pollutants, and chemicals that mimic your hormones. They can leave you feeling bloated, tired and achy. Combine these everyday exposures with the allergens and mold spores in the air, and you may notice your symptoms ramping up.

This can affect how your organs (liver, kidneys and colon) function and how your body looks… think dry skin, dull hair and brittle nails.

That’s why I suggest you do a thorough “spring cleaning” of your body.

Taking Care Of Your Body

I call it the Body Purification Regimen.

Just follow these three purifying steps and your skin will look more radiant, your hair will shine, you’ll feel less bloated, your nails will be stronger, and you’ll start feeling sharper, more alert and more focused than you have all year:

1. Eat clean. The first step is to avoid the toxins and chemicals in your food and water as much as possible. The best way to do this is to avoid processed foods and choose grass-fed beef and free-range poultry instead. This way you’ll know what you’re putting in your body, and you won’t risk consuming the estrogen-mimickers and antibiotics that are found in standard grain-fed meat at your grocery store. Also, be sure to drink only filtered water and buy organic fruits and vegetables to keep chemicals and pesticides out of your system.

2. Sweat it out. If you have access to a sauna, use it. Sweating not only keeps your body temperature in check, it also rejuvenates your largest organ – your skin. It eliminates waste, pollutants and toxins from your body. Plus, periodic purges through perspiration prevent the accumulation of these toxins in the first place and can also remove toxic chemicals and metals faster than any other method of natural body cleansing. If you don’t have access to a sauna, try a workout that really gets your heart pumping and your body sweating.

3. Clean out your kidneys and liver. Certain herbs can help get rid of toxins from your Dandelionbloodstream, restore your liver function and help flush out your kidneys. Two of the most effective herbs,dandelion and milk thistle. You can find them at your local health-food store.

• Dandelion stimulates bile and acts as a diuretic to help your body get rid of excess water and control bloating. I suggest 4-10 grams of the dried leaf or 4 to 10 milliliters (1:1) of fluid extract.

• Milk thistle contains a liver-cleansing ingredient called silymarin. Take 200 mg in a capsule form twice a day.
Try to find the dried extract with a minimum of 80% silymarin for the best results.

Shortcut to Happiness

Shortcut To Happiness

If you’re already in a relationship or you’re looking for your “soul mate,” you can only make things better for both of you if you’re happy within yourself, not dependent on someone else to “make” you happy. In fact, studies show that happily married couples live longer, healthier lives than single people. So, how can you just “make yourself happy?” Try these tips for a new attitude that just may make you, and those around you, smile more often.

Aging Backwards Happy Tips:

Volunteer. Numerous scientific studies show that acts of kindness can result in significant mental and physical health benefits. Helping can bring on a rush of euphoria, followed by a longer period of calm, often called a “helper’s high” that releases the body’s natural painkiller, endorphins, thus reversing feelings of depression, hostility and stress. The greater the frequency of volunteering, the greater the health benefits. Keep in mind these statistics:

Bring Happiness To Others

Personal contact with the people being helped is important.
Helper’s high results most from helping people we don’t know.
Regular club attendance, volunteering, entertaining or faith group attendance is the happiness equivalent of getting a college degree or more than doubling your income.

Fake a smile. Charles Schaefer, psychology professor at Fairleigh Dickinson University in Teaneck, New Jersey, found in his research that even self-imposed smiling and forced laughter can boost mood and psychological well-being tremendously. “Phony laughter works because your body doesn’t know it’s fake, even though your brain might,” he says. “Once the brain signals the body to laugh, the body doesn’t care why. It’s going to release endorphins; it’s going to relieve stress as a natural physiological response to the physical act of laughing,” he adds.

Keep Smiling

Express gratitude, often. According to Tal Ben-Shahar, author and lecturer at Harvard University. “We too often take our lives for granted. Learn to appreciate and savor the wonderful things in life, from people to food, from nature to a smile.” He is the author of numerous books including, Happier: Learn the Secrets to Daily Joy and Lasting Fulfillment (2007).

Once you find your own inner happiness, you’ll be surprised at how other areas in your life will start to blossom. You’ll treat others differently, people will react differently to you and you could take your romantic relationship to a whole new level.

Mineral Makeup Impostors Can Contain Dangerous Additives

Mineral Makeup

Thanks to infomercials and the Internet, you’ve probably already heard how mineral makeup can be a healthier choice for your skin. But that’s only true if you’re using the real thing.

“Mineral” has become a buzzword…and a lot of brands out there are trying to jump on the bandwagon.
But some hardly contain any healthy minerals at all. And they’ve got dangerous additives that can irritate your skin and clog your pores.

They can even make you look older!

Take a look at just a few of the toxins I found in popular “mineral” foundations:

Dangerous Chemicals In MakeupParabens. Used as preservatives, parabens are nothing but toxins that can disrupt your hormones. I switched to mineral makeup to avoid them…so I was shocked to see them on the labels of so many “mineral” formulas. You’ll see them listed as methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben and butylparaben.Talc. One study showed that inhaling talc can irritate the lungs and lead to breathing problems. That’s reason enough for me to avoid mineral powders with talc.Bismuth oxychloride. This ingredient is not found in nature. It’s made by combining water, chloride (from chlorine) and a by-product of lead smelting. Lots of brands use it as a filler. When it gets warm on your skin, it can cause itching and irritation, especially for those with sensitive skin and rosacea. It’s been known to cause rashes on very delicate complexions.Dimethicone. In some women, this silicone compound can cause a mild rash or tingling sensation…and even irritate acne-prone skin.Micronized minerals. Some mineral makeup is made with very small particles—or even nanoparticles.
These microscopic particles are more likely to be absorbed right into the skin, instead of remaining on the surface.
There’s growing concern that this could be hazardous. These smaller particles also have a way of settling into fine lines,
which magnifies the look of wrinkles.

Chemical coatings. Here’s where it gets even trickier. Some brands start out with great mineral ingredients…but then they coat them in chemicals as a preservative! And the law doesn’t require this to be listed on the label.Mineral Make Up

I’m not comfortable with the idea of covering my face in toxins that aren’t good for me…especially since I wear makeup for 12 to 16 hours every day. Do manufacturers think we’re too busy to notice what’s in there?

When you think about how much effort you’ve put into finding just the right LifeCell cleansers and creams…why should you have to ruin all that hard work by using a makeup loaded with toxins?

Wouldn’t it be better if the makeup you wear every minute of the day made your skin healthier?
So check out your mineral makeup and be sure you have none of the above ingredients.

The Structure of Human Skin

Human Skin

Skin forms the largest organ of the body – accounting for about 16 per cent of a person’s weight. It performs many vital roles as both a barrier and a regulating influence between the outside world and the controlled environment within our bodies. The evaporation of sweat from the skin greatly increases the rate at which heat can be lost from the body. The physical toughness of the skin prevents the ingress of harmful chemicals and invading organisms, such as bacteria and viruses. It also provides resistance to shocks for the more sensitive tissues underneath. At the same time, skin needs to be supple and be able to stretch to accommodate movement.

Skin exposed to sunlight is the main site of manufacture of vitamin D, which is essential for the growth and maintenance of our bones. The extensive network of nerves, within the skin, feeds information constantly to the brain concerning our surroundings. On the one hand we are warned of harmful extremes of temperature or of other dangers – while on the other, touch can be one of the most powerfully soothing and pleasurable of sensations.

Much importance is attached to the appearance of skin, especially in our modern society. Conditions affecting the skin can have marked effects, not only on our state of well being but also on the ways we interact with other people, on our suitability for certain occupations and on the sorts of pastimes we can enjoy. So it’s important to understand the importance of good skin care routines for maintaining and improving skin health. Natural products that work in harmony with the skin are the best option for skin rejuvenation.

The structure of human skin is complex, but can be divided into 3 main layers : Epidermis, Dermis, Hypodermis (Subcutaneous Tissue).

                          Human Skin Structure


Epidermis
is the uppermost layer consisting of several layers of cells. The first few layers of cell are dead. The cells beneath them divide and add new cells. Since the uppermost layer of the cell consists of dead cells. They don’t have any blood supply. The lowest part of the epidermis needs blood supply as it needs raw materials to grow and divide. The cell contains certain pigments that give color to the skin. Our skin depends on amount of pigment present in the layers. The pigment is called melanin.

Dermis is the lower layer. It is tough and a strong. I gets rich supply of blood and lymph. You will also find roots of hair embedded in this layer. The crown of the hair over looks the epidermis. Associated with root hair and opening of the cavity (follicle) are the sebaceous glands or oil glands. They keep the hair smooth and soft. You will also find number of sweat glands, when you see the skin with a lens. The sweat glands filter the fluid or sweat from the blood that circulated through the capillaries.

Hypodermis – Subcutaneous Tissue

The subcutaneous tissue is a layer of fat and connective tissue that houses larger blood vessels and nerves. This layer is important is the regulation of temperature of the skin itself and the body. The size of this layer varies throughout the body and from person to person.

  Layers Of Skin

The skin is a complicated structure with many functions. If any of the components in the skin are not working properly, a rash or abnormal sensation is the result. The whole specialty of dermatology is devoted to understanding the skin, what can go wrong, and what to do if something does go wrong. Dermatologists also study the ageing of skin and research the most effective treatments for wrinkles, lines, age spots, crows feet, etc.

They have identified a powerful solution for treating the signs of aging and restoring healthy, smooth skin. It’s called LifeCell. An all-in-one anti ageing cream that has the ability to make skin appear younger and more vibrant, while also providing deep nutrition and rejuvenation to the skin. LifeCell Cream is recommended by dermatologists because it provides a safe, natural way to restore healthy, youthful skin without the need for invasive treatments.

LifeCell contains scientifically researched ingredients and is based on Nobel Prize winning science. It’s rapidly gaining popularity across the world as one of the best anti ageing creams, and is loved by many Hollywood celebrities. But most importantly, it works… and it will work for you. Find out the facts about LifeCell Cream and discover how it will help you achieve smoother, healthier skin.
