BEAUTY HINTS AND TIPS FROM THE LAKES!
BEAUTY DETOX |
|
Renew your weary skin - Exfoliation is crucial if you are worried about your skin looking tired, dull and lined, and the older your skin, the more you need to do it. The epidermis (upper layers of skin) thins with age because cell renewal slows down, and unless we stimulate this process, the skin becomes slack. Don't be too rough when exfoliating and support your skin by lifting and holding it upward with one hand. We can show you how to do this when you are next at The Lakes!
Spots and blemishes - There are the classic signal that all's not well within. There are a number of reflexology zones in the face, and the zone between the brows for instance is your liver. If you get a single, angry, inflamed spot here, its a clear sign that your liver is inflamed and needs a detox. A spot in the actual eyebrow is a sign that there are too many fats and sugars in your diet and that you have a toxic build-up going on. Random spots mean that you are stressed and are a classic sign that your skin is overloaded, inflamed and reacting. Never pick or squeeze spots as this can lead to scarring. Just keep your skin clean and use an antiseptic cream.
Reduce the puffy face - Massage makes the greatest difference to your skin. Regular massage of the face will really help with puffiness and will reveal a lighter, brighter complexion. A monthly massage works wonders for the face - it includes the neck as this contains lymph nodes and massage towards the nodes will help rid the face of toxins. Always work towards the hairline and outwards, never drag the face down. Don't massage too close to the eyes with oil as this will cause your eyes to puff.
Puffy, dark eyes? - The one thing everyone should know is never put eye cream on your actual eyelids. The skin in this area is thinner and can't cope with heavy eye creams. Dot the cream gently (using your ring finger as this finger is less harsh) over your eyebrow/brow bone and just at the top of your cheekbone where it starts to meet the eyelid area underneath your eye (on the orbit bone). Your eyes will then draw up as much of the product as it needs by itself.
Dark circles are often hereditary, but the thing that no-one ever talks about, which happens more as we get older, is the dark circles often appear to darken. As skin becomes thinner we lose the cushion of collagen and elastic, so you can see the blood and lymph right under the skin's surface and it looks more like bruising. Drinking more water really can help this in this instance as it weakens the level of toxins in the lymph and encourages drainage. Regular eye treatments can also help with the appearance greatly - our chocolate facial includes an eye treatment that will help combat these issues.
