Ever since Eve took that first bite of the apple, the human race has been obessed with beauty.
The truth is we begin the aging process just as soon as we pop out of the womb. Every day of our lives our bodies slough off and regenerate new cells. The speed at which that process takes place when we are children is vastly different as we get older.
Every day you are bombarded daily with commercial messages and beauty tips that attempt to lure you into believing that the most recent miracle drug is just what you need to fight off the ravages of Mother Nature.
We are living longer as a whole. Singularly, that can be a curse or a blessing, depending on your perspective.
The best route to natural beauty and healthy skin is to take care of what you have. Sounds simple, doesn’t it? The truth is that your skin takes a beating from the environment every single day. Here are some of our favorite beauty tips for keeping your skin fresh and healthy:
1: Stay hydrated and do it with plenty of water! That does not mean soda, caffeine or any other type of liquid, even if it is low cal. Soda (even diet soda) has a high concentration of sodium. Sodium retains fluids. You need fluid that will hydrate and flush your body free of toxins. Make sure you are drinking at least 8 glasses a day!
2: Protect your skin from harmful ultra violet (UV) rays. We all love the sun. We love being in it and we love having a beautiful tan. The truth is you can poison yourself with too much sunshine. UV rays cause skin cancer and if that isn’t bad enough it causes your skin to age faster than it should, contributing to unsightly wrinkles. If you must play in the sun, make certain you are using an adequate sun screen. Don’t leave home without it!
3: Keep your skin clean. Use a soft warm cloth. Skin does not require scrubbing. You will do more harm than good if you do.
4: The best cure for wrinkles is to never have them in the first place! If you are like most of us, you didn’t listen to your Mom when she tried to tell you to stay in the shade, stand up straight and stop squinting!
5: Eat healthy. Knowing how and what to eat, can make a huge difference in how you feel. Improper eating habits can cause depression, weight gain, illness and an overall lethargy.
Weight gain causes your skin to stretch. As you get older, it loses it’s elasticity and you’re left with sagging skin.
The best solution to this is to maintain a proper weight.
A rule of thumb for eating habits are…don’t eat more calories than you consume. Don’t go one single day without doing something extra and physical for at least 30 minutes Read more

How often do you hear “beauty comes from within”. There is a lot of truth in that because if you’re felleing stressed or anxious it’s hard to look good.
Yet it’s all too easy to get overwhelmed by the fast pace of today’s lifestyle. The results of overwhelm are you can find yourself distracted, anxious and tired, which is no way to be if you want to feel attractive or sexy.
Yes you can take pills to stimulate you if you’re exhausted, or calm you down if you’re stressed but it’s sad that we’re using pills when what you really need is more time to relax.
On the other hand, if you’re working 60 hours a week, commuting, competing, looking after kids and still expecting to be relaxed and together, you’re expecting too much of yourself.
If your health isn’t what it should be, if you’re having problems at work, or if you’re in financial difficulties, it’s got to have an impact on how you look.
The long term answer is to bring some sanity back into your life. Get some rest. You need to have enough sleep otherwise all you can think about is how tired you are, it isn’t going to be much fun. Schedule time for resting as well as sleep and review your priorities.
