Recommended Products!

Hi guys…

I was deep busy jumping from work, household and business commitment, I rarely visit my blog for updates but thank God, everything is in a better phase and I can now go back to my normal shed....
Anyway, for the last 3-4 weeks been trying out new products, it is sort of great dicovery adventure!!

Here are new products I have tested and highly recommended:

1.)   Milcu Foot & underarm powder deodorant


At first glance, I thought it was a joke, but I have used this brand because I have no choice, I was in Philippines at that time and ran out of body spray, my mother in law gave me a small bottle of this as an alternative, and it was indeed great!! 3 days of using it, all I can say is, its amazing, no sweat, no smell and it lasted for whole day, so before coming back to Kuwait, I have secured 5 big bottles of it and I can’t express how grateful I am to have found a product so good as milcu 2in1 powder, ohhh I did tried it as foot deorant and it works the same!!


2.)   Royale Pinkish Glow



My sister came in our house last month with a huge bag of Royale Products, from soap to lotions, I was not interested at all but in due respect I have to buy 1-2 items, so I bought pinkish glow and glutathione cream in blue bottle, the next day, I started using both products, I fell in love with the pinkish glow, it blends perfectly to my skin, covering even the small spots, I look fresh and natural with pinkish glow, I don’t have to wear any foundation nor a powder, just a little spread of this cream and you’re good to go…!

3.)   Laminine


Few weeks back, I have posted about this miracle supplement and I would want to post my recommendation as well, this supplement as I said before, gives me great and wonderful result internally, in my own experience, it reduced stress, headache, it gives me a peaceful and wonderful sleep at night,  my skin looks healthy and glowing and I feel great all in all!!


Our body is our best asset, it is our machine to earn our living, so it is only safe to say that we should take care of it, and caring our body would always starts with a good hygiene and a healty skin

SPF 100 no better than SPF 30, says dermatologists

Summer is here, glowing and healthy skin always start with a good protection against the sun,

Here’s essential information about sunscreen and how to protect our skin:



Super SPF sunscreens are soon going to be a thing of the past.

 

By June 2012, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has required sunscreen manufacturers to change the labels on their products.

Brands boasting of SPF 80, SPF 110 or more will no longer be allowed to do so. Instead, they’ll have to make do with the label, SPF "50 plus."



The FDA's ban on SPF claims greater than 50 is based on several studies revealing that consumers falsely believe that the higher the SPF, the longer they may expose themselves to the sun

This inaccurate notion has led to risky behavior in the general public, eventually leading to more cases of skin cancer.

Dr. Darrell Rigel, a clinical professor in dermatology at the New York University Medical Center says "An increase in SPF from 30 to 50 has only a one percent increase in protection against the harmful rays of the sun."

High SPF protects only a fraction of what’s claimed



Here are a few tips on how to protect yourself from the sun:

1. All skin types, colors, ages need sunscreen. More than 3.5 million people have skin cancer.

2. When your shadow is shorter than you, sunscreen is not enough. Get under the shade or wear protective clothing like a hat, long sleeved shirts or umbrellas.

3. Wear sunscreen daily even if you’re not in the beach. Eighty percent of UV rays can still pass through even on a cloudy day. Sand and water increases the sun's reflection by 25 percent.

4. Use sunscreen on all areas not covered by clothing. One ounce or a one shot glass is the ideal amount to cover all the exposed parts of the body. Therefore an 8-ounce bottle of sunscreen should last only for 8 applications. Using less than one ounce still puts you at risk for skin cancer.

5. Allow the sunscreen to dry for 15 minutes before going outdoors.

6. Re-apply sunscreen every 2 hours after swimming or sweating. No matter what the bottle says, sunscreen is NOT waterproof.

7. Know what type of sunscreen works best for you. Different types are ideal for different areas of the body.

          Creams for face and dry skin.

          Gels for hairy areas like men's chests especially baby's scalp.

          Sticks for areas around the eyes.

          Sprays are ideal and easier to apply on children.

8. Be aware of the expiration date. A sunscreen loses its protection after three years. Don't feel bad about throwing out a bottle that is half-full. The damage it can cause is not worth the extra pesos you spend on a new one.
