Skin Care Guide for the Fashionable Lady

April 10, 2009 · Filed under general fashion advice · Tagged ,

It’s fashionable to have healthy skin. If you have ever seen a beautiful woman dressed to the nines suffering from a bad case of acne, you know what I mean. Skin care is an often forgotten, but very important part of fashion. Most women assume you can take care of skin problems with lots of makeup, but this is not true. Makeup may hide some skin blemishes, but upon closer inspection, your entire “look” can be ruined. Maintaining your skin is very vital. Having healthy skin is an indication of your health. For some people, good-looking skin may be a genetic advantage, but for those who aren’t lucky enough to have good-looking skin, perfect skin can be created – with a good deal of effort. The tips below will help you get good-looking skin, making you look more fashionable.

To get clear skin, you have to scrub your face at least twice a day – preferably once in the morning and once at night. Doing so will help remove foreign matter and bacteria on your skin. It’s essential that you follow this skin care recommendation. It’s vital that you clean your face to avoid looking like you have a shiny face. For the best cleaning effect, rub some skin care cleaning product onto your face in a sideways type motion. Wash off with warm water after you finish scrubbing and pat dry with a towel. Make sure that you don’t dry your face with strong towel motions, otherwise your face will sag with time. The best way is to pat your face dry.

You should always exfoliate your face. If you start to exfoliate, you thoroughly clean your face of dead skin and excess bacteria. You should use natural exfoliating agent such as salt, sugar, or sand. You need to exfoliate your skin because it gives the skin a stronger cleaning. Exfoliation removes the top layer of the skin. Exfoliate between 2 to 3 times a week; too much can damage your skin, however.

You must use facial toner on your skin. Without a doubt, toner is one of the most essential parts of proper facial hygiene. Toner helps to clean dirt and debris from your face; it also helps tighten up your pores and radically reduce the possibility of a bacterial infection.

Moisturize you skin in the morning, preferably after you finish showering. When skin is moisturized it stays hydrated all throughout the day. Moisturizer acts like a barrier that holds the skin’s moisture in. It’s best to use non comedogenic moisturizer – this kind of skin product will prevent your pores from clogging up and add to skin blemish breakouts. For the best results from moisturizing your skin, you can tap the skin’s surface immediately after using the moisturizer – this will help to maximize the skin’s absorption of the moisture.

Use sunscreen when possible if you plan to go outside. The aging of the skin is greatly accelerated through the harmful exposure to the sun’s rays. The sun’s rays are often very dangerous to our skin, resulting in the formation of wrinkles and age marks. Cancer can form from excess sun exposure.

Being beautiful and fashionable is not always easy. Skin care is one of those things left behind sometimes. However, you should make every effort to keep your skin healthy, so that you continue to look beautiful in everything that you wear!

Many socially “elite” women prefer Clutches because they are the perfect complement to evening outings and parties.
The Duffle handbag is perfect for any sort of sport use or travel. It’s commonly called the gym bag or the “kit bag.” Military personal and athletes will often use the Duffle as a sort of “travel” bag.

The Satchel handbag is a somewhat large bag with a very small handle that’s carried on the arm as opposed to the shoulder. It’s used to carry small, hard items like books. It has straps that go over the shoulder and across the body. The Satchel handbag is primarily used by students.

The Tote handbag is usually medium or large in size. It often has two straps and is used to carry everyday, run-of-the-mill items like books. It’s normally made out of heavy pebbled leather, treated canvas, or nylon material and divided into several sections.

The Messenger bag has a long strap that crosses the body and is usually made of synthetic or natural cloth material. It’s used by bicycle messengers in less urban areas, but in major metropolises it’s considered quite a fashion item.

The Sling handbag comes with a long strap. It can look like a Messenger bag, though it’s a bit smaller. The Sling bag is worn over one shoulder with a single strap that twists and winds around the chest; the bag ends up resting on the lower contours of the back. In the past, sling bags were very popular with teens and younger, working adults.

This is a breakdown of the various types of handbags out there. Each handbag serves a different purpose, be it utility or fashion; many major fashion companies (Louie Vuitton) Gucci, Prada, etc)make fashionable and highly sought after versions of each bag. What handbag you want depends on what you are trying to accomplish.
