Tanning The Natural WayWritten by Caryl B. Grecia
This is a call to everybody. Save your skin, now before it's too late! Having a tan makes you look more healthy and gorgeous. But how do you do it without bad consequences? There are a lot of people who would like to have golden brown skin. It is not a new sight when people go to beach to lie almost naked under sun just to have an equal tan. But, it is not so safe to do just that because of super harmful UV rays. Instead of getting only a perfectly golden skin, one might suffer a serious case of skin cancer later, too. There are plenty of options in tanning today. More modern ways are undergoing medical treatment to acquire a sun-less tan. However, there are still some modern techniques that use radiation powered machines to tan skin. And radiation is also bad to health. There are more techniques that could give a person a perfect tan. But most of them cost so much because they are highly specialized techniques and reduces (or even eliminates) usage of radiation or UV rays. But to an average person who desires to have a golden skin, it would not be very practical to pay so much to have desired healthy golden skin. There are ways to achieve a perfect tan without exposing yourself to sun and spending so much on skin clinics. There are ready-to-use products that are safe to use and are inexpensive compared to services offered in skin clinics. Here are some tips for a safe, sunless and costless tanning right in your homes. Remember that before applying those sunless tanners, body must first be thoroughly cleaned and exfoliated by using loofah or soft cloth to wash off dust and dead skin cells. This way, even tan will surely be achieved. Use moderate amount on knees, elbows and other parts with thick, dry skin, as they will appear darker. Use a sponge paintbrush, about two to three inches in size, in applying tanner on back. When applying in face, avoid spreading in and around eyes. After application, immediately wash hands thoroughly with soap and water. Use a make-up wedge when applying at backs of your hands in smooth even strokes as well as on your feet and between toes. Apply tanner using both horizontal and vertical strokes or circular motion.
| | Vegetarian Does Not Have To Be "All Or Nothing" Written by Melanie Mendelson
Many people contemplate becoming a vegetarian at one point or another. Some consider a meatless diet because they feel sorry for animals. Others think a vegetarian way of eating will improve their health. However, out of those well-intentioned people very few actually follow through and change their way of eating. The idea of completely giving up meat forms a big stumbling block for most. For some reason, when it comes to vegetarian cooking, most people only see "extremist" approach: either give up meat completely or you might as well include meat in every meal. This "all or nothing" thinking becomes a mental barrier that keeps a lot of people from eating more vegetarian meals. How about finding a happy medium? Drastic changes to one's diet never last. Do not beat yourself up for eating meat. There is no need to give it up completely. Just try eating a little less of it, that's all. Start right now by making one meatless dinner every week. Keep everything else same. Eating just one vegetarian dinner every week is definitely doable and easy. It will be just a nice change instead of deprivation! If you think going meatless one day a week would not make a big difference, consider these simple numbers: if everyone ate vegetarian meals just one day a week, it would save one out of seven animals. Out of 92 million animals that are consumed in United States alone every year, over 13 million animals would be spared. This is a huge impact!
