Beauty // Health // Skin Care: Exercise, Exercise, Exercise!

Friday, November 14th, 2008

So, I woke up this morning and said to myself, “Lyndsie,” I says, “it is high time you started getting fit.”  This is a huge step, because I’m laaazy.  Generally, and I’m being honest here, the most exercise I get involves turning the pages of a book or giving my fingers a hardcore work out [...]

Beauty // Health // Skin Care: Moisturizer Madness!

Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008

Lovely readers — guess what?  It’s getting cold!  Personally, I prefer cold weather; autumn is my favorite season, followed closely by winter.  However, that same cool, crisp, stringent air that many of us love can be extremely devastating to our skin.  It sucks the moisture right out of our atmosphere — and out of our [...]

Beauty // Health // Skin Care: Shimmer & Shine, Glimmer & Glow

Wednesday, September 24th, 2008

It’s getting on towards fall.  When autumn weather is nice, nothing compares to it – there is little better than those cool, clear days, when the sky is blue as a sapphire and the air is so crisp it feels like you could drink it down.  However, fall is a mercurial season, and when the [...]

Beauty // Health // Skin Care: Making the Most of Menopause

Sunday, September 14th, 2008

We were talking about skin care last time, and that got me to thinking.  I am in my twenties, and when you look at all the skin care commercials on TV, all of them seem targeted to people in their twenties and their teens.  But what about people with adult acne?  What about menopausal women?  [...]

Beauty // Health // Skin Care: Egg White Wonders

Monday, September 8th, 2008

Egg whites are inarguably healthy.  We’re supposed to eat them instead of the yolks, after all.  A little known and sometimes controversial fact is that egg whites are also very beneficial to your skin.
They provide skin care in a number of ways, though you might have read evidence to the contrary.  Trust me, though, I’m [...]

Beauty // Health // Skin Care: Acne Atrocities

Friday, August 29th, 2008

Acne is a problem for a lot of people.  The problem is, those people who have never suffered from this emotionally and physically painful skin condition harbor a lot of misconceptions about it.  For instance, do you even realize how many people think that acne is just a problem for teenagers?  They therefore “coach” people [...]

Beauty // Health // Skin Care: Revitalize, reprioritize, rejuvenate — part 5.

Tuesday, August 19th, 2008

Your spirit cannot flourish if it is weighed down by burdens.  Grudges, regrets, resentments – all of these are holding you back and holding you down.  Perhaps you have issues with yourself.  Perhaps you have issues with someone else.  If you are hurting, you need to realize – you do not have to hold onto [...]

Beauty // Health // Skin Care: Revitalize, reprioritize, rejuvenate — part 4.

Friday, August 15th, 2008

Ah, the joy of a good massage – and yes, that means a legitimate massage!
You may think a massage is a luxury you can’t afford but really, you can’t afford not to get one.  I’m not talking about going all Beverly Hills pampered socialite here.  I’m talking about booking a massage once a month – [...]

Beauty // Health // Skin Care: Revitalize, reprioritize, rejuvenate — part 3.

Sunday, August 3rd, 2008

Often – more often than you might think, though it should come as no surprise – your mind, body, and spirit are revitalized the most by humble, simple, and selfless acts.  This includes giving thanks – for your family, for your friends, for your life.  It also includes taking a minute every day to breathe [...]
