To girls with perfect skin, we admire, love and loathe you at the same time. The truth is, perfectly clear skin is a dream for most people. In reality, achieving it isn’t as simple was washing your face two or three times a day, exfoliating regularly, eating healthy. So we talked to girls who know how to maintain a blemish-free complexion for some good advice.   1. They never go to bed with makeup on. This is when we should really listen to our mothers when they told us to wash our faces, no matter what. Sleeping with makeup on clogs up the skin – your face collects oil, oil, dirt and grime and this congests the pores, enlarging them over time and also irritates the skin. Makeup also rubs off on your pillows and we all know what dirty pillows breed and do to our skin. More importantly, during our sleeping hours, our skin goes into repair mode – makeup hinders this reparative process. Ensure makeup is thoroughly removed Continue Reading

The Rolling Stones sang, “Time waits for no one… Time can tear down a building or destroy a woman’s face”. Did you know that collagen production within our skin starts to drop as early as during our twenties? Throw in the stress of work (and kids), women notice the first signs of ageing usually in the mid to late 20s or if you are lucky, during your 30s. We cannot stop the passing of time and the effect on our youthful faces, but that is exactly the reason why every woman should consider anti-aging treatments early – to delay it.   Tip #1 SAGGING SKIN Ever wondered why the most beautiful celebrities look like they never age? Apart from good genes, they do put in hard work to make sure the devastation of sagging skin never ever hits them. From your early 30s, start with FDA-approved skin tightening treatments annually to ensure the skin stays plump with collagen.

This New Age Light Is Making Heads Turn

The quest to own and to keep a youthful glow is never-ending. So even celebrities such as Kim Kardashian and Christie Brinkley have stuck to their diet of regular skin rejuvenation lasers. Speaking of lasers, red, swollen and burnt faces come to mind. But thanks to technology, good and effective treatments today do not necessarily need to have downtime. In fact, photo facials are all the rave now and the regular facial patron is looking for more than just comforting spa facial treatments – she wants the usual deep cleansing but is willing to trade a mild degree of discomfort (but not downtime) for some clinical skin benefits, depending on her skin needs.   BROADBAND LIGHT (BBL) IS NOW THE MUST-TRY LIGHT-BASED DEVICE Specifically, such facials are called photo facials, because rather than using lasers, light-based devices are used to brighten the skin and to address specific skin concerns, without any downtime. And contrary to chemical peels and microdermabrasion, BBL penetrates deeper into skin to target a variety of skin Continue Reading

Approaching or in your 40s and rethinking your beauty regime? This decade is about serious anti-aging treatments delaying the appearance of worsening of wrinkles and doing all you can to keep that jawline tight and sculpted. Without further ado, here are the real treatments that every woman (and man) in their 40s should check out.   COMMON SKIN WOES OF THE 40s Increasingly sagging jawlines, double chins, jowls, prominent nasolabial and marionette folds. The 40s is the curse of the lower face. Try looking at yourself in the mirror and using your fingers to reposition your skin to where it was in your late 20s or 30s. You might not have minded the slightly less V-shaped visage in your mid-thirties but come 40s and you wish you did something about it earlier.

Lisa Williams2 Comments

BY LISA WILLIAMS Florence Colgate was crowned the most beautiful woman in Britain in 2012. The 18-year-old student beat 8000 other participants in a competition in the search of the “Perfect Face”. Contestants were judged without makeup and were barred entry if they received plastic surgery or chemical enhancement. Some speculated her beauty secret was the air in her home town, or possibly a special ingredient in the chips from the seaside shop she was part-timing at. But it was really the blue-eyed blonde’s flawless mathematical facial proportions that added up to her success in winning the title as Britain’s most naturally gorgeous face.
