Facial Massage

periods. For those who do not routinely massage their skin, massage every 3-4 days with a massage product.

Waxing or Shaving

We are usually faced with the question – is it better to wax or shave?

For years we believed the myth that shaving makes his hair come back thicker and darker. When you are shaving you are only taking off the top of the hair but the hair growth is actually from the root, so I believe that there’s no way that actual hair grows back any quicker or faster by shaving it. Usually our normal hair is long and thus can move and feels smooth – it’s very flexible, but when it’s just coming out the follicle it’s much shorter, it’s not flexible at all, you can hardly move it and therefore if you put your hand across the hairs it does feel that much coarser. Shaving is the same as waxing – your hair won’t grow back thicker either way. But waxing does keep your skin feeling smoother longer, because you pull out the root, and it can take up to three months before the new hair comes through.

Method: Using a peeler remove only the colored part of the peeland set it aside. Slice the oranges and lemons in half across the segments. The tough, white part in the center must be cut out and discarded. Slice the two halves into thin slices. Chop the slices up a bit!

Do’s don’ts of facial massage

• Use your entire palm when massaging a wide area.
• Use generous amounts of massage cream, especially for those who have dry skin.
• In the direction of facial curves, massaging should be done in a rhythm of inner to outer otions

Don’ts

• Don’t take small amount of cream. If too little massage cream is applied, the hands will not glide over the skin, creating excessive stimulation.
• Don’t use just your finger. When using just your finger, the skin suffers too much stimulation.
• Don’t massage in irregular directions. If you do not massage
  in the direction of facial curves, wrinkles can be formed.
• Don’t go for excessive massage. Excessive massaging
  can over stimulate the skin
