Everything You Need to Know About Charcoal Soap

If the idea of cleansing your face with charcoal sounds a little counterintuitive, we’re here to clear up (pun intended) any doubts. Our new Charcoal Face Bar works to clarify and detoxify your skin without drying it out. Read on for seven reasons this is the product you never knew you needed—until now.

1. Safety first: Soaps are often made with harsh surfactants such as sulfates that are overly drying and irritating to the skin. In addition, soaps may contain parabens as well as synthetic dyes, antioxidants, and fragrances that can act as hormone-disrupting chemicals. Our face bar doesn’t come with any of that.

2. Charcoal has gained a lot of attention lately as a buzzy skincare ingredient. Our bar contains a special type of charcoal powder calledBinchotan, which helps to thoroughly cleanse skin and draw out dirt, oil, and impurities.

3. The fear with any deeply cleansing, detoxifying product is that it will also dry out your skin. Thanks to hydrating organic coconut and sunflower seed oils, our formula doesn’t

4. Other noteworthy ingredients include antioxidant-rich organic green tea extract as well as organic witch hazel, an astringent that works to refine pores and balance skin.

5. Our formula works well for all skin types—not simply combination skin—and for men, women, and teens. It’s gentle enough to use daily on both your face and body.

6. Nothing looks cooler on your bathroom counter than a bar of black soap (plus, it’s a great conversation starter).

7. It’s designed to help give you a smoother, brighter, healthier-looking complexion—and who doesn’t want that?

Double Seventh Festival-Chinese Valentine's day

Double Seventh Festival-Chinese Valentine's day

The Double Seventh Festival, on the 7th day of the 7th lunar month, is a traditional festival full of romance. It often goes into August in the Gregorian calendar

This festival is in mid-summer when the weather is warm and the grass and trees reveal their luxurious greens. At night when the sky is dotted with stars, and people can see the Milky Way spanning from the north to the south. On each bank of it is a bright star, which see each other from afar. They are the Cowherd and Weaver Maid, and about them there is a beautiful love story passed down from generation to generation.

Long, long ago, there was an honest and kind-hearted fellow named Niu Lang (Cowhand). His parents died when he was a child. Later he was driven out of his home by his sister-in-law. So he lived by himself herding cattle and farming. One day, a fairy from heaven Zhi Nu (Weaver Maid) fell in love with him and came down secretly to earth and married him. The cowhand farmed in the field and the Weaver Maid wove at home. They lived a happy life and gave birth to a boy and a girl. Unfortunately, the God of Heaven soon found out the fact and ordered the Queen Mother of the Western Heavens to bring the Weaver Maid bac.

With the help of celestial cattle, the Cowhand flew to heaven with his son and daughter. At the time when he was about to catch up with his wife, the Queen Mother took off one of her gold hairpins and made a stroke. One billowy river appeared in front of the Cowhand. The Cowhand and Weaver Maid were separated on the two banks forever and could only feel their tears. Their loyalty to love touched magpies, so tens of thousands of magpies came to build a bridge for the Cowhand and Weaver Maid to meet each other. The Queen Mother was eventually moved and allowed them to meet each year on the 7th of the 7th lunar month. Hence their meeting date has been called "Qi Xi" (Double Seventh).

Scholars have shown the Double Seventh Festival originated from the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD220). Historical documents from the Eastern Jin Dynasty (AD371-420) mention the festival, while records from the Tang Dynasty (618-907) depict the grand evening banquet of Emperor Taizong and his concubines. By the Song (960-1279) and Yuan (1279-1368) dynasties, special articles for the "Qi Xi" were seen being sold on markets in the capital. The bustling markets demonstrated the significance of the festival.

Today some traditional customs are still observed in rural areas of China, but have been weakened or diluted in urban cities. However, the legend of the Cowhand and Weaver Maid has taken root in the hearts of the people. In recent years, in particular, urban youths have celebrated it as Valentine's Day in China. As a result, owners of flower shops, bars and stores are full of joy as they sell more commodities for love.

Wish all shall be well, jack shall have Jill!!!

How to apply face serum

You may live by the skin care mantra of cleanse, tone and mositurize but do you know where the face serum fits in?

Serums are relative newcomers to the anti aging skin care market and a lot of people (me included when I first starting using it) are unclear about exactly when and how to apply a skin serum to get the most benefit.  It’s an additional step in the daily skin care regimen and we’re not sure just when to use it. Under or over your moisturizer – last thing before your makeup – sometimes skin care manufacturers don’t make it clear.

You might assume that if you don’t get guidance from the makers – it doesn’t matter how you apply it.

But it does – applying your serum properly has a real impact on how well the active anti aging ingredients penetrate below the skin’s surface. Ultimately it can make a difference as to whether you get the positive results you want. 

Take time with face serum

Corrrect application of all skin care products is important  – especially if they contain active ingredients that need to penetrate to the dermis to be effective.  Not applying products in the right way can mean the active ingredients just sit on the surface and fail to have any effect at all.

The purpose of a face serum is to deliver active ingredients to your skin – if you don’t put it on right the money you’ve spent could be wasted.
It’s definitely worth taking a little bit of time now to learn the best way of applying face serum to get the most from the active ingredients.

Stick to one brand

Speaking from experience  I  don’t always buy the products I use from only one brand.  I use them at different rates and sometimes I find that the cream from one brand suits me whilst the cleanser from the same line just doesn’t.  Or I buy from different brands at different times because I run out of things or get tempted by new skin care products.
Like most women – I have ended up with a bit of an odd assortment of bottles and jars on my bathroom shelf.  But does it matter that your skin serum is not the same brand as your hydrating cream?
My view is that where products are designed to work together you will tend to get better results.
Take the wonderful Skin Medica TNS Regeneration System Kit – the moisturizer and the anti aging serum are sold as a kit and they work perfectly together as they are designed to do.  Worth getting because results are much better together than alone.
There are many other brands out there – Murad Skin Care for example – where skin care is sold in a package or kit usually including a serum.  Obviously they sell more products this way but customers benefit too.

Different brands may clash

Serums and moisturizers can be layered on the skin without problems if they are designed to go together. Not always the case if you mix and match brands though.  I see quite a lot of reports in beauty forums and customer reviews that even the best skin serum doesn’t work very well with the customer’s normal moisturizer.
The result – difficulty in applying make up or peeling and ‘pilling’ of foundation on the skin. Definitely not this season’s best look!
The cause of the problem is likely to be the conflict between the serum formulation – usually a gel type base – and the face moisturizer which is often a lotion or a cream.

Don’t apply too much face serum

If you get problems with serums splitting or not sinking in – it may be nothing to do with the product.  It may simply be you are applying too much in the hope of instant younger looking skin.  It’s a common problem according to dermatologists.
Putting on too much cream or serum is a recipe for problems.  Skin can only absorb so much and the residue will remain on the surface and can block pores causing breakouts or coagulate and ruin your makeup.
Start off by reading the instructions on the packaging and use only the amount of product recommended.  Don’t overload your skin.

Active ingredients have to work together

The other issue with using competing brands of skin care is that the ingredients may cause conflicts and confusion.  An active ingredient in your serum may cause irritation when combined with a different active in your face cream or they may just cancel one another out.
Quality brands have been formulated to deliver outcomes – skin clarity, reduction in fine lines – based on a set of ingredients that work together.  
Using products from the same line will reinforce the results – using a randomly chosen alternative may undermine them.

How to Use Collagen For Your Beautiful Skin

The collagen in your body must be supported as it is a very important nutrient that keeps your skin young and healthy and prevents you from viewing wrinkles.

What is collagen
Collagen is a type of protein that is normally found in the skin. It is also important to note that the collagen is also found in the bones, muscles, body tissues, tendons and cartilage.
Because of fibers present in the protein, collagen operates to supports and hold together the other body tissues and internal organs.

Collagen found in our body allows our skin to have:
a good texture,
shape,
elasticity
and flexibility.
Without collagen present it would not be the case, which is one cause of wrinkles.
Factors can cause collagen damage
There are three factors can affect your levels of collagen.

1. Environment. For example sunlight, wind, cold and pollution can all have a negative effect and cause your collagen to break down.
2. Aging process. Collagen is also affected by the normal aging process in humans. As you get older, the collagen in your skin cells begin destroying what causes your skin to appear dry and with more wrinkles.
3. Lifestyles. Other factors that affect the collagen are tobacco and alcohol. There are also internal functions of the body as natural oxidation that causes collagen to break down and be destroyed. Overall, if your lifestyles are not “healthy” and lack of exercise, a healthy diet and have bad habits such as smoking and drinking, then it will cause natural degradation of collagen.

How to rejuvenate collagen
There are 2 options if you need to renew your collagen.

Collagen implants
Collagen can be injected into your skin to help regain its youthfulness. Surprisingly, it can also be used as a remedy for burns and severe injuries. The way it works is for cosmetic purposes by injecting it into your skin to renew natural dermal layers of the skin and provide support to the skin.
Collagen injection treatments are the most popular for women aged 35-60 because they think it can improve their skin tone. Collagen is injected directly into the skin where the natural collagen has been damaged. The final results are smooth skin, facial wrinkles and lines less and the youngest overall skin.
Collagen implants are more popular than the facial implants under the eyes; but they can be injected into other areas of your face, including your eyebrows, the area around the mouth, lips, cheeks and forehead.

Use collagen as cosmetics
Collagen, believe it or not is also used for medical and cosmetic purposes. As you can imagine these injections can be expensive and they tend generally only last 3 to 6 months. As with any surgery, collagen injections do carry a health risk and it involves needles. Injections usually last 30 minutes to an hour and the person can go home immediately.
As we mentioned above, collagen injections are wearing a health risk, but the collagen itself can have a powerful effect on your wrinkles and your overall skin as a whole. Eye Secrets saw this and thus a gap in the market and produced a very effective some products. The product uses natural ingredients and requires absolutely no needles or surgery and is only one ounce of the price! The results are phenomenal and 92% of volunteers who used the known product results in just 15 minutes.
Eye Gel Patches work to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles on your skin and revitalize the areas of your delicate skin around your eyes. The patch becomes difficult to work in her 15-20 minutes while it is applied to the areas under your eyes and intensively moist, nourishes and moist your skin, while working to restore the elasticity of the skin, leaving your skin looking and feel rejuvenated, vibrant and smooth.

How (and Why) to Use Face Serum

It's a beauty misconception that serums are just a more expensive form of skin moisturiser. Yes, the price is more per ounce than your average skin care product, but that's because you're getting more concentrated ingredients (and deeper-penetrating effects). Get the low-down on why serums are worth every penny when you keep reading.
Why use it? A serum is your go-to product to improve the overall look of your complexion. The active ingredient can bring antioxidants to the skin, restore cell growth, or help decrease pore size. But the one thing a serum doesn't do, typically, is moisturise the skin.
How does it work? "Moisturisers have a base that allows them to stay on the surface to moisturise the outer portion of the skin, but a serum has a lipid-soluble base that allows the active ingredient to actually penetrate into the epidermis," explains Dr. Lawrence Samuels, chief of dermatology at St. Luke's Hospital and founder of the skincare line in the US.
Which one is right for you? "If you have acne-prone skin, the two most significant ingredients would be an L-ascorbic acid [which is true vitamin C] and retinol," Dr. Samuels says. "They're both antioxidants that improve the cell growth in the outer layer of skin." If you have normal skin, look for alpha lipoic and glycolic acids in the serum ingredient list.

How do you apply it? Use about a pea-sized amount of serum for the face and neck, applying the product about two minutes after your cleanser (not on wet skin). "Hydrated cells allow the active ingredient to penetrate better than dried cells," Dr. Samuels says. Then, wait another three to five minutes before applying your moisturiser. "Moisturisers help restore the keratin protein back to the skin, so they generally have a higher pH," he said. "If you put on your serum then immediately put on your moisturiser, it can somewhat decrease the effectiveness of your serum."
Also, it's important to use face serums primarily at night, because UV rays and oxygen can cause them to oxidise — another reason to make sure you always keep a tight lid on your products.

Skin Care Tips

There are five general skin types: oily, dry, normal, combination and sensitive. Sensitive skin may be combined with any one of the aforementioned types, especially with dry skin; so always make sure to go for products with the sensitive label.

Dry Skin: If your skin tends to have an old appearance, looks ashy or feels tight, then it is considered dry. In more extreme cases, dry skin lacks elasticity and can be extremely sensitive to the sun, wind, and cold temperatures. Since you have dry skin, you have to make sure that you do not expose your skin to extreme weather for long periods of time and always moisturize.

·                                 Treatment: Find a moisturizing bath soap or body wash with natural oils like almond, coconut or olive oil. Any other oil of your choice is ok if you have preference. Weekly treatments are recommended for your skin. Fill a tub with honey, milk and half a cup of any nourishing oil and add boiling hot water to the mix. Wait for it is cool to your desired temperature then soak for as long as you want; the longer the better. For ladies, make sure to exfoliate every other day and always wash your makeup off. Since you have dry skin, exfoliate gently and every two days and moisturize every morning and night before bed. For makeup, make sure to use only the ones with natural products. Such brands like Bare Minerals comes highly recommended. Try their tinted moisturizer collection.

Oily Skin: If your sebaceous glands are always on the fritz and your face looks as though you swam across the Olive Oil Ocean, then you have oily skin. Chances are, you tend to break out easily. Whenever you do, do not prick your pimples or blackheads.

·                                 Treatment: Your skin tends to attract more dirt than dry skin, so wash your face twice a day with a good oil eliminating face scrub and warm water. Time for the big reveal.....Himalayas Herbals Excess Oil face scrub. Use it twice a day and it works so well you won't have to blot!

Normal Skin: Some consider normal skin to be combination skin, but it is not. If your skin is oily in the "T zone" and your nose while dry and taut on the cheeks, it is considered normal. It's also considered normal if it changes with seasons (dryer in winter, oilier in summer). Normal skins can also be 'Normal-To's' as in normal to oily or normal to dry.

·                                 Treatment: Wash your face with cleansers that are designed for your normal/normal-to skin type. Wipe an alcohol free, hydrating toner all over the face. Apply moisturizer more frequently to dry skin.

Combination Skin: Combination skin is comprised of two extreme skin types on one face. These situations occur when there is acne and a lot of oil in one area when the rest of the skin is generally dry (no oil).

·                                 Two common examples are dry skin with papular and pustular acne on the cheeks or a normal skin with inflamed papular and pustular acne in the chin and mouth area.

·                                 Treatment: Tend to each area appropriately as described above. If the acne is severe, consult a dermatologist or esthetician.

Sensitive Skin: Please note that you may have sensitive skin and normal, oily, or dry. If your skin has allergic reactions to beauty products and is usually sensitive to the sun, wind, and cold weather, it is sensitive. Sensitivity can show up in rash, redness, inflammation, acne, and dilated capillaries.

·                                 Treatment: Look for cleansers, toners, makeup, and moisturizers that are fragrance-free and hypoallergenic. Cleanse, tone and moisturize with gentle products everyday. The idea for your skin is to always choose products with a soothing benefit. Some common ingredients to look for are: chamomile, azulene, bisabolol, allantoin, lavender, camphor, calamine, rosemary, thyme, aloe vera, coconut oil etc.

How to select anti-aging skin care products

Shopping for an anti-aging skin care product can feel like hit-or-miss experience. With so many choices, it can be difficult to know which products to choose. These dermatologists’ tips can help you shop with confidence.

1. Start with sunscreen and moisturizer: Dermatologists agree that sunscreen and moisturizer are the two most-effective anti-aging products you can buy. Using these every day can make a noticeable difference.
When shopping for sunscreen, select one that offers all of the following:

• Broad spectrum
• SPF 30 (or higher)
• Water resistance

An anti-aging moisturizer helps to minimize fine lines. It is so effective that moisturizer is the secret ingredient in many anti-aging products.

Using a moisturizer with sunscreen is fine. Just be sure that the product offers broad-spectrum coverage and an SPF of 30 or higher.

If you will spend time outdoors during the day, you should apply a sunscreen that offers broad-spectrum protection, SPF 30 (or higher), and water resistance. Be sure to reapply your sunscreen every two hours while outdoors.

2. Treat your #1 aging-skin concern: Give sunscreen and moisturizer a few weeks to work. Then look at your skin. Is there still a sign of aging that bothers you?
   
   By focusing on one concern, such as wrinkles or dark spots, you’ll get the best results. Look for a product that targets your concern. There are two reasons for this:

• No product can treat all signs of skin aging.
• Using more than one anti-aging product in a few days or weeks can irritate the skin, making you look older.

3. Buy a product formulated for your skin type: Your sunscreen, moisturizer, and other anti-aging skin care products will work best if they are formulated for your skin type. For example, if your skin tends to be oily, select a moisturizer made for oily skin. If you have sensitive skin, you want to see the words “sensitive skin” on the label. 
This is important because no one product works for everyone. 
1. Read product labels and select a product that offers all of the following:
• Hypoallergenic (The product can still cause an allergic reaction, but there is less risk.)
• Non-comedogenic or non-acnegenic (does not cause acne)
• Consumer hotline (to contact for questions)
2. Have realistic expectations: Exaggerated promises, such as look 10 years younger overnight or quickly reduces all signs of aging, are too good to be true. It’s important to remember that anti-aging skin care products deliver modest results. You cannot get the results of a facelift from a cream. 
TIP: “Clinically proven” means that the product was given to consumers to try. It does not mean the product underwent clinical trials and received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). 
3. Select a product within your price range: It’s human nature to think that the more expensive the product, the better the results. Effective anti-aging products come in all price ranges. 
Maximize the results you see
Once you’ve selected a product, you can maximize its effectiveness by following tips that dermatologists share with their patients.

How to Pick the Right Skin Care Products for You

Manufacturers of skin care products classify skin by type. Each skin type has its own needs, and choosing products designed for the appropriate type can help bring the skin closer to its healthy ideal.
Most products intended for dry, normal, oily, or combination skin refer specifically to facial skin unless the product's packaging mentions otherwise. Someone with an oily complexion above the neck could have dry skin on the legs and feet. Look for the skin care product that matches the skin type of the area it is meant to cleanse, tone, or moisturize.

Normal Skin

Smooth, even skin that looks clear and feels supple is considered normal. People with this skin type rarely get the blemishes that accompany oily skin or the rough patches that come with dry skin. Normal skin produces enough natural oil to have a dewy look a few hours after washing. People with normal skin should choose products designed to keep their skin in this state of glowing good health.

Dry Skin

When the skin does not produce enough natural oil or lacks sufficient water content, it becomes dry. Dry skin feels taut and itchy; it may have rough patches where it has become dry enough to flake. Dry skin looks dull on lighter tones and ashy on darker complexions. As skin ages, it often tends to become dry. Although mature skin has its own needs, skin care products designed for it also combat dryness. Products for dry skin aim to replenish moisture and protect the skin from further moisture loss.

Oily Skin

Oily skin has over-active oil-producing glands and develops blemishes readily. Skin that has a slick surface within half an hour to an hour of washing the face probably falls into this category. Excessive oiliness contributes to acne by clogging the pores and giving acne-causing bacteria a place to thrive. However, skin needs a certain amount of oil to stay healthy, so skin care products designed for oily complexions must reduce oil without stripping it away completely.

Combination Skin

This common skin type is oily in some areas and dry in others. The forehead, nose, and chin tend to produce more oil. This area, the T-zone, may need special care for oily skin while the cheeks require extra moisturizer for dryness. Skin care products that normalize the skin by adding moisture without clogging pores can be beneficial for combination skin.

Mature Skin

As skin ages, it grows thinner and more delicate. It also produces less of the protective natural oils that used to keep it supple. Like skin care products for dry skin, products for mature skin are typically creamy and emollient. Skin care lines designed for mature skin may also contain antioxidants, alpha hydroxy acids, and other ingredients with anti-aging properties.

Skin Care Essentials for Every Skin Type

For good health, every skin has a few basic needs. Skin should be clean, moisturized, and protected from the sun's ultraviolet rays. At its simplest, a skin care regimen includes products to fill these three fundamental needs.

Skin Cleansers and Soaps

Skin requires regular, gentle cleansing for a lifetime. Manufacturers offer a tremendous range of bar soaps, foaming face washes, and cleansing lotions to keep the skin clean. While bar soaps or body washes suffice for most of the skin, faces have slightly different needs. Look for a facial cleansing product designed for the appropriate skin type to get the skin clean without drying it or clogging pores.
As a rule, bar soaps are more drying than lotions and foaming washes. Soaps are slightly alkaline and can affect the natural acidity of the skin. For oily skin, this can be a benefit, but those with dry or mature skin may prefer a foaming lotion that is closer to skin's natural acidity. Regardless of skin type, a facial cleanser should remove oil and dirt from the skin without the need to scrub. Scrubbing too hard during cleansing can cause irritation for oily, acne-prone skin and roughen dry skin.

Moisturizers

All skin needs occasional moisturizing. Moisturizers consist of two components: a humectant and a protective ingredient. Humectants, ingredients that draw water molecules out of the environment and into the epidermis, hydrate the skin while protective ingredients form a layer to hold that moisture next to the skin. In a moisturizer for dry, normal, or mature skin, that layer of protection usually comes from an oil. Moisturizers for oily skin are usually oil-free.
By definition, oily skin already has sufficient oil, but it still needs hydration. A light moisturizer designed for oily or combination skin can replenish lost moisture and create a smoother, more even surface. Moisturizing oily skin also helps remove shed epidermal cells that could otherwise find their way into pores and cause clogs, so it is an important step even for oily skin.

Sunscreens

Most of the visible effects of aging are caused by years of sun damage. Ultraviolet rays can even contribute to cancer, so sunscreen is a vital component for any skin care regimen. While darker skin tones are far less susceptible to skin cancer, people with dark skin typically get more serious types of skin cancer when they do develop it. Dermatologists therefore recommend that everyone wear a sunscreen daily regardless of skin tone.
