Some people are luckier than others when it comes to aging. There are people who are 40 years old but may look 30. There are others who are just 30 years old but look much older. This is due to the genes that you have inherited from your parents and there is not much you can do about it. Depending on what you have, you should adjust which skin care method to use in order to prevent yourself from looking older very quickly.
When one ages, the body slows down its production of collagen, which is responsible for the elasticity of the skin. With reduced collagen levels, the skin will tend to sag and form wrinkles. Aside from this, the body also slows down its production of new skin cells thus old scars, marks and other damages on the skin will remain there much longer. Free radicals would also have accumulated on the skin which can contribute to its faster aging. Excessive deposition of fat on the other hand, may also cause the skin to look ugly on specific parts of the body.
For those who are luckier and have younger looking skin even though they are much older than most, you can just live a healthy lifestyle and this may be enough to prolong the onset of wrinkles and other signs of aging. This will include eating lots of fruits and vegetables, avoiding fats and salt, drinking lots of water, exercising regularly and avoiding bad habits. This includes smoking and excessive drinking as these exposes your body to many different toxins that can accelerate the aging process. Also, getting 8 hours of sleep at night will help your body regenerate and repair broken tissues and cells more efficiently.
For most other people who are not so lucky, using eye creams is a good way to slow down the aging process. Creams basically work by improving the skin through many means. For one, it can help in tightening the skin so that wrinkles may be reduced. Creams that stimulate collagen production are the best creams as these work by reversing the aging process and providing the body with collagen that it can use to restore the skin’s elasticity. This way, skin will sag less and fewer wrinkles will also form.
Aside from solving the problem of wrinkles, creams may also help in eliminating dark lines, especially those found under the eyes. The lightening effect of creams can help even out skin tone so that darker areas will not seem as dark and the skin will have a more even tone. Creams can also smoothen out any rough patches of skin to further improve your appearance. Other creams can help in eliminating skin problems on the other parts of the body.
The best way to go about looking younger is to just combine several methods of skin care, just be sure that they are all safe to use and the benefits will outweigh the risks.

Save My Hair
We all love our hair and will do everything to take care of it, but how? Here are a few facts about hair care:
* Avoid too much styling experiment with hair. Coloring or perming your hair often can damage it.
* It is advisable not to perm and color hair the same day.
* Too much blow drying or hot curling can damage your hair.
* Pulling hair put strain on the follicle and this may result in permanent damage and the follicle no longer being able to grow again.
* Avoid combing or brushing wet hair as they are more fragile when wet.
* Identify the right shampoo for your hair. Every shampoo has scientific value. To get the most for your money match it up to your hair type.
* Always wear a bathing cap while swimming in the pool and shampoo your hair immediately afterwards.
Hair fall is a common issue with most people. This can happen due to varied levels of stress and anxiety, inadequate sleep, eating disorders and even improper hair care products. This can also become a major issue if sufficient hair care is not included in your lifestyle.
Try and get a hair product that suits your mane and stick to it. Frequent changing of formulations can as well affect your hair resulting into hair fall. It is recommended to visit a salon and opt for a hair nourishing spa at least once a month.
If your hair is colored, chances are high that they might start falling. Chemicals tend to invade the hair follicles and damage the interior structure. Wash colored hair with products formulated to treat it specifically. Again, an experts or specialist's treatment would be great to ensure that chemically colored hair is healthy too.
I use a combination of coconut oil, caster oil, honey and lemon juice. At times I even add the white of an egg. I particularly take care to include a spa each month and rinse my tresses with tea leaves soaked in warm water after each wash. This gives a natural shine to my hair and also prevents hair fall.

Color Your Own Hair
Normal colored hair is not the trend now and color treated hair is the game. Going to the salon is expensive and takes much of your time so its better to do things at the convenience of your home. Here are simple coloring tips or you:
Blond..James Blond
Chamomile tea can be use to enhance blond hair.Brew 5-10 bags with 3/4 cups of water. Let it cool naturally or if in a rush, you can add 4 ice cubes to cool it. Add 1 teaspoon of lemon juice and place the mixture in a spray bottle. Spray on your hair evenly until all hairs are saturated. Cover hair in plastic wrap or plastic cap and let it sit for about 30-45minutes. For brighter results, use a heated towel and wrap around the head for about the same time.
Brunette for Fun
Dark color brunettes can use coffee.Coffee is a not just your simple cup of joe but also a great color enhancer. Using brewed coffe placed in a spray bottle, saturate your hair with the mixture and comb it until its evenly distributed. Leave on for about 20-30minutes. Repeat the process if you want to achieve darker result. Rinse well and shampoo. Use mild conditioner to lock in the color.
Bleed for Red
This is the easiest color to achieve. For an orangey, strawberry-blond, reddish mane, you can use carrot juice. Any carrot juice in a can is fine. Place it in a spray bottle, saturate your hair with the mixture and comb it until its evenly distributed. For a much deeper auburn red-tone manes, you can use beet. Do the same process with the spray. To ensure the vivid color, you can use heated towel and wrap around your head for almost 30mins then rinse off with mild shampoo then condition.
I do prefer home hair remedies because they are easily available for us. Its also practical to use and with lesser side effects compared to the chemically based hair dyes.

Breaking Up With Split Ends
Taking care of split ends is more about maintenance than anything else. First thing should be to ensure that your hair is perfectly hydrated and well oiled. Doing this would not only treat split ends but also prevent it from occuring.
Several concoctions are available over the net but here are a few of mine, I tweaked a bit so that it conforms to what I like.
Avocado Split - While hair is damp, mash a ripe avocado in a bowl. Leave on your scalp and hair for about 30-45mins then wash off with lukewarm water. If you do not have avocado (since they are only present in the store when its their season) you can use mayonnaise as a substitute.
Organic Hot Oil Treatment - for this I prefer lavender oil as a hot oil organic treatment. My base oil is lavender oil but you can use jojoba oil. Using aromatherapy by mixing 10 drops of either rosemary or sandalwood can also be done ( I prefer rosemary because of the relaxing smell overnight). Adding the mixture to base oil and rubbing it thoroughly into hair. Some people doesn't like leaving them overnight but I do that so that the oil can penetrate well into my hair follices. Just wash thoroughly with lukewarm water in the morning.
Egg Yolk Therapy - 1 egg yolk and 1 teaspoon of almond oil are the simple ingredients for this. Mix well and apply on your scalp. Better use your fingertips to ensure that the mixture goes into your scalp. Let it sit for an hour and rinse. Wash thorughly or the egg yolk residue might turn into debris that later on will cause dandruff.

The hair happens to be at its most vulnerable just after a shower, so avoid brushing it at this point instead use a wide tooth comb. Great looking hair can add a very emphatic amount of panache and elegance to almost any appearance. Go on say "goodbye" to split ends, its one relationship worth ending anytime. Having the right hair treatments need not to be expensive.
