How to keep your skin looking great part 2

40’s

Your oil production starts to plummet, which is great for those who had oily skin, but means that you have to have a great moisturizer.

Your skin also becomes fragile do to the loss of fat in your subcutaneous layers and your skin becomes thicker due to the fact that your dead skin hangs around for longer.

ACTION PLAN:

· Regular exfoliation or in house treatments like mda or skin peels.
· Avoid petroleum based products even if your skin feels better with them. Your skin only gets clogged up.
· Drink plenty of water
· As the wrinkles stat to get deeper you may want to invest in a collagen serum and maybe start Caci
· You could also start using AHA’S to help make your skin look fresher. Regim A night cream not only exfoliates at night but has AHA as well as environs alpha gel for exfoliation.
50’S:

Pigmentation cells often clump together to form brown spots (age sports), Oil shrinks even more and the skin contnuises to get thick and collagen fibrous.

ACTION PLAN:

· Take extra care
· Uses a good moistures
· If not doing non surgical or ant ageing treatment ,start its not to late to help the skin stimulate its plumpness.

Fruit salad for the skin!

Fruit and vegetables naturally include many ingredients which are excellent for skin rejuvenation - like any living organism, they have to keep themselves taut and juicy, which is exactly what we want for our skin as it begins to age and/or develop blemishes and spots.

Most of us are aware about the health benefits of fresh fruits or our body. So why not use them on our skins? We know that most of the nutrients and vitamins in fruits lie in their skin and pulp, and just as they are useful to the body, these nutrients can serve to be excellent scrubs or
Re-vitalises for our skin too!

Natural Fruit Facials have been preferred since centuries to get a healthy skin that glows. And that’s why Bodytique has created fruit salad facials as our signature facial so that we can pamper you with an all-natural fruit facial. Bodytique has a number of different fruit facial to suit every ones skins needs. As you know by now there are different skin types and each skin reacts differently to a fruit mask.

So imagine a facial from start to finish using only fruit and vegetables followed by a paraffin layer over the mask to lock in the nutrients. Not only are you looking after your skin and teasing the senses with the invigorating smell that fills the air while the fruit pulp works wonders on your skin!

Our natural fruit facials are as follows:
Please not that all the facial consist of the following – cleans, toner, exfoliate, facial massage, mask and moisturiser.

Wrinkle fighter
Is great for general skin renewal, It helps reduce wrinkles, remove dead skin, and clean your pores.

2. Enzyme work over
Is an active facial which revives the skin and sheds the out layers living the skin plump and revitalised?

3. Thirst quencher
A great facial which add or maintain the hydration levels in the skin.

Healthy fruit salad facial to refresh the winter damages.

4. Natures mind
Is a basic facial were we asses and then customizes your facial.

Please not that the facial will vary from time to time
Due to the fruits in season.

So its summer time and there’s nothing better than a
A nourishing facial.

How to keep your skin looking great.

Everyone won’t younger healthy skin, but there are a number of factors that determine this. They included genetic factors, environment, sunlight expose and external factors.

Age is another factor in this processes and ones skin varies from age group to age group. So we put together an action plan for the different age groups on how to maintain ones skin.

20’S:

Your skin has a healthy glow. As we age through into our 20’s our dead cells slowly start to renew less and the shedding becomes less as well.

ACTION PLAN:

· Get into the habit of using a cleanser
· Use a moistures with a high SPF in it daily
· Avoid yo-yo diets –as this leads to saggy skin
· Drink plenty of water
· Get into the habit of exfoliating ones skin twice a week
· Going for a good facial at least every 3months.

30’S:

Skin cell renewal decreases more. Ageing signs start showing.

ACTION PLAN:

· By now you should have a skin care plan – if not ask one of our therapist to help.
· Eating a balanced diet –rich in minerals and vitamins
· Water intake
· Getting enough sleep
· Start using a night cream

SPORTS MASSAGE

What is Sports Massage?
Sports Massage is a special form of massage and is typically used before, during, and after athletic events. The purpose of the massage is to prepare the athlete for peak performance, to drain away fatigue, to relieve swelling, to reduce muscle tension, to promote flexibility and to prevent injuries.
Purpose of Sports Massage?
The main purpose of sports massage therapy is to help alleviate the stress and tension which builds up in the body’s soft tissues during physical activity. Where minor injuries and lesions occur, due to overexertion and/or overuse. Massage can break them down quickly and effectively. The massage will help prepare the athlete for peak performance, to drain away fatigue, to relieve swelling, to reduce muscle tension, to promote flexibility and to prevent injuries.

Sports therapy- Comrades tips: Water is not enough for long runs

Water is not enough for long runs
1) Your body looses salt, electrolytes and minerals which have to be replenished. Buy sports drink for that matter.

2) Do not, I repeat, do not drink magnesium drinks! If you want you can have magnesium drinks, tablets AFTER your run. During exercise it will only lead to diarrhoea.

3) Gels during the water consumption must be right. Two much water result in a hypotonic –few carb's to your legs. Too little result in diarrhoea and using a sports drink …find a portaloo.

4) Remember never to mix sports drink with water, a practice which will increase your chances of avoiding GI upsets and delivering enough carbohydrate to your muscles

Sports therapy - special edition - INJURIES

The best thing for injuries is REST, and knowing when not to push your body any more.

However if you do get injured the following will help you get back on your feet.

THE FIRST 24 HOURS ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT!

R EST
Stay off your feet as much as possible
I CE
The area that is inflamed or painful, this will
Help heal the injuries, however to much can
Make it worse.
5min – small area
10min – large area.
C OMPRESS
To strap the area, to help support the body to heal

E LEVATE
Lift area up.

IF AREA STAYS SWOLLEN OR VERY PAINFUL AFTER A GOOD RICE METHOD, CONTACT A GP OR SPORTS THERAPIST.

Getting a better shave.

First is first deciding which method to use:

· electrical razor
Easier, yet not a close shave. How ever is good to alternate then. If you’re going to use this method than use a shaving oil to provide a smoother gliding surface.
· wet method
Is the most skin friendly method. different shaving products:
* OIL: For all one can apply it under any of the below products, to get an even better shave. Oils are great for dry skins and great for thick, heavy growth, due to it softening the hair. The only problem is that the oil cogs the blades thus one needs to rinse it more often.
* CREAM: Is for dry or sensitive skin, due to a moisture barrier that forms on the skin to help prevent dryness and also helps you against nicks and irritations.
* FOAM: good for oily skins, due to the drying effect on the skin.
*GEL: Good for oily and sensitive skins.
Before shaving look at the direction of the growth of the hair as it is better to shave with the grain. Its best to do a rough stretch of your face and the directions on the areas shaved.
· Chance your blades regularly, the heavier your bead the more frequently you need to chance the blade.
· Best time to shave is 20-30min after waking up, due to the skin being at its most relaxed state.
· Use Luke warm water
· Exfoliate the night before you shave as this lifts up the hairs lying flat on your skin.
· Moisturizes after wards and every other day.

THERMO ACTIVE FACIAL

If you haven’t experienced Acadiemie's Thermo active mask now is the ideal time, with the damage and the dryness of winter, we all need added warmth and improved circulation. What better way to get it than with a self-heating mineral mask?
