A study of 681 white children in Colorado found that for each water-themed vacation, kids had 5 percent more moles — raising the risk for skin cancer later in life.“ It’s obvious that kids’ being around water usually includes exposure to the sun.

Just sleep. No jogging, push-ups, sit-ups or anything like that. All you have to do get at least seven and a half hours of sleep a night – that’s it; simple but difficult. With work, family and everything else in your life it can be difficult to catch enough shuteye. At least two dozen studies have documented that people tend to weigh more if they sleep less, says Sanjay Patel, M.D., a researcher at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland. In a 16-year study of almost 70,000 women, Dr. Patel and his colleagues found that those who slept five hours or less a night were 30 percent more likely to gain 30-plus pounds than those who got more rest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.glamour.com/magazine/2009/02/lose-weight-while-you-sleep"&gt;Read full article&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3981764336918872244-1356408977954122061?l=skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com/feeds/1356408977954122061/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3981764336918872244&amp;postID=1356408977954122061' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3981764336918872244/posts/default/1356408977954122061'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3981764336918872244/posts/default/1356408977954122061'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com/2009/02/loose-weight-by-sleeping.html' title='Lose Weight by Sleeping'/><author><name>Becca Self</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07510487140429227286</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SQDnzJrfKOI/AAAAAAAAABA/EsxHfVcSt2Q/S220/Becca2.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SZHyu02NCoI/AAAAAAAAAHY/yemHf2_gYBg/s72-c/sleep-weight-loss.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3981764336918872244.post-1381039819977570242</id><published>2009-02-09T14:17:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-02-09T14:23:05.555-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='A Russian Paris Hilton?'/><title type='text'>A Russian Paris Hilton?</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SZCshfmbcnI/AAAAAAAAAHQ/_4U2VgRlsy4/s1600-h/2CA1F18AA4635641C1BBDAD87F932.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300926452833415794" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SZCshfmbcnI/AAAAAAAAAHQ/_4U2VgRlsy4/s320/2CA1F18AA4635641C1BBDAD87F932.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;It could be the beginning of a diva cold war. &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paris_Hilton"&gt;Paris Hilton&lt;/a&gt;, America’s favorite celebrity for no reason, could have a Russian rival.

Who doesn’t dread having to get “dressed up” to go to work? Day after day you put on that coat and tie all the while dreaming of endless casual Fridays. Well change has finally come to D.C. This should come as no surprise because President Obama did “[promise] to bring change to Washington and he has — not just in substance, but in presidential style.” The rule of coat and tie in the oval office at all times is out the window. That’s not all… “He shows up at the Oval Office shortly before 9 in the morning, roughly two hours later than his early-to-bed, early-to-rise predecessor. Mr. Obama likes to have his workout — weights and cardio — first thing in the morning, at 6:45.

Wait, wait…it’s for a good cause! A local pet-supply store manager Suzi Wharton talked 15 of Goldsboro, North Carolina's most respected businesswomen out of their tops. Their animal shelter was in dire shape: “Each year around 7,000 dogs and cats arrived at the dank, 50-year-old building to be housed in overcrowded pens and stacked cat cages. Most never left. The place was so depressing that local residents didn't want to set foot in it, so even the most adoptable pets couldn't find homes and had to be euthanized.” Amazingly, “it took only 25 calls to potential models before she landed the number she needed for the July 2008-December 2009 calendar.” “When the Petals &amp;amp; Paws calendar debuted last May, 1,000 of the 3,000 copies were snapped up immediately. At press time the WCHS had grossed $25,500, with sales ongoing both locally and online at &lt;a href="http://www.goldsboro-wchs.org/"&gt;http://www.goldsboro-wchs.org/&lt;/a&gt;.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.lhj.com/relationships/family/pets/calendar-girls/"&gt;Read full article&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3981764336918872244-6988455740314974616?l=skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com/feeds/6988455740314974616/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3981764336918872244&amp;postID=6988455740314974616' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3981764336918872244/posts/default/6988455740314974616'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3981764336918872244/posts/default/6988455740314974616'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com/2009/01/show-some-skin.html' title='Show Some Skin'/><author><name>Becca Self</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07510487140429227286</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SQDnzJrfKOI/AAAAAAAAABA/EsxHfVcSt2Q/S220/Becca2.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SX9pJrPqTRI/AAAAAAAAAGg/FfY7Y9_gjXw/s72-c/p_101317044-1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3981764336918872244.post-6051730285822484257</id><published>2009-01-26T10:22:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-26T10:25:06.036-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='CSI Actor Saves YouTube Video'/><title type='text'>CSI Actor Saves YouTube Video</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SX3_-i0cH7I/AAAAAAAAAGY/Od1gwqEYYWk/s1600-h/csi.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5295670186821296050" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 154px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SX3_-i0cH7I/AAAAAAAAAGY/Od1gwqEYYWk/s200/csi.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;It must have felt like TV when “&lt;a href="http://www.cbs.com/primetime/csi/"&gt;CSI&lt;/a&gt;” actor &lt;a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0567162/"&gt;Gerald McCullouch &lt;/a&gt;was recently attacked on a New York subway. “McCullouch, who plays Bobby Dawson on the hit CBS show, had just gotten off a plane from Los Angeles and was riding the A train when a man allegedly attacked him with a knife.” For most celebrities this is enough to give up any valuable– not McCullouch. The actor said he had been editing a clip for &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/"&gt;YouTube&lt;/a&gt; for hours, so when the attacker grabbed his laptop McCullouch didn’t let go. “I didn’t want to give up my computer after working on my video all that time,” McCullouch explained.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/28848679/?GT1=43001"&gt;Read full article&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3981764336918872244-6051730285822484257?l=skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com/feeds/6051730285822484257/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3981764336918872244&amp;postID=6051730285822484257' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3981764336918872244/posts/default/6051730285822484257'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3981764336918872244/posts/default/6051730285822484257'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com/2009/01/csi-actor-saves-youtube-video.html' title='CSI Actor Saves YouTube Video'/><author><name>Becca Self</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07510487140429227286</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SQDnzJrfKOI/AAAAAAAAABA/EsxHfVcSt2Q/S220/Becca2.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SX3_-i0cH7I/AAAAAAAAAGY/Od1gwqEYYWk/s72-c/csi.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3981764336918872244.post-8903940199017344392</id><published>2009-01-23T14:11:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-23T14:22:02.037-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Better Skin: Try Night Rainew®'/><title type='text'>Better Skin: Try Night Rainew®</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SXpBkCdhDyI/AAAAAAAAAGQ/JVx32cRryGY/s1600-h/Night+Box.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5294616399319207714" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 256px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SXpBkCdhDyI/AAAAAAAAAGQ/JVx32cRryGY/s320/Night+Box.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;div&gt;Every product always promises the best results. However, few products really live up to all of their claims and actually provide REAL results. “Ever since the explosion of creams that hyped themselves as better than Botox (and weren’t), skin-care companies have scrambled to rival professional treatments such as microdermabrasion and chemical peels.” Because of this, it’s hard to find something really worth trying. I could suggest a lot of products for you to try but I will only endorse one. I recently got the opportunity to try Night Rainew® by &lt;a href="http://aprilrainskinscience.com/"&gt;April Rain Skin Science®&lt;/a&gt; and it has really made a difference in my skin. I felt it working from the very first time I used it. It’s not greasy and it made my skin feel soft, smooth and ultra-hydrated when I used it. It’s even been “&lt;em&gt;Reviewed and Recommended&lt;/em&gt;” by &lt;a href="http://truthinaging.com/"&gt;TruthinAging.com&lt;/a&gt;! My advice: don’t believe ads and phony claims.

Among the most economically burdensome skin disorders are skin ulcers and wounds, melanoma, nonmelanoma skin cancer, atopic dermatitis, and acne, the cost of which totaled $22.46 billion in 2004.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_hb6366/is_/ai_n29202699"&gt;Read full article&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3981764336918872244-1159552594410733576?l=skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com/feeds/1159552594410733576/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3981764336918872244&amp;postID=1159552594410733576' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3981764336918872244/posts/default/1159552594410733576'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3981764336918872244/posts/default/1159552594410733576'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com/2008/11/expensive-skin.html' title='Expensive Skin'/><author><name>Becca Self</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07510487140429227286</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SQDnzJrfKOI/AAAAAAAAABA/EsxHfVcSt2Q/S220/Becca2.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SRschQ-PaXI/AAAAAAAAACg/ZpqAizt3sZ0/s72-c/money.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3981764336918872244.post-5164739655260802430</id><published>2008-11-10T11:29:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-10T11:31:18.104-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Anti-aging'/><title type='text'>Considering Medical Anti-aging Treatments?</title><content type='html'>"A new study conducted by the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery (ASDS) and Dermik Laboratories, a business of sanofi-aventis U.S. LLC, reveals the influencers that impact a woman’s decision when considering medical anti-aging treatments. The study surveyed women ages 35-69 who’ve considered a medical anti-aging treatment, as well as previous patients who have had fillers or injectable procedures.&lt;br /&gt;According to the study, the top three factors that influence a woman’s decision to either move forward or decline a medical anti-aging treatment, such as injectables are:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Physician Training and Expertise: 95 percent of women considering a treatment ranked a physician’s training and experience with the procedure or product as most important compared with other factors, such as how the product works or how quickly results appear.&lt;br /&gt;2. Gradual Results that Last Two Years: 89 percent of women preferred gradual results lasting two years over immediate results lasting six months. Additionally, 75 percent of women preferred gradual results lasting two years versus 25 percent who preferred immediate results lasting one year.&lt;br /&gt;3. Information from Physician and Web sites: 99 percent of women receive information about medical anti-aging treatments from health care providers or health and medical Web sites. When making a final decision, a woman’s doctor was cited as the best source of information."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.skincareblog.net/2008/11/06/cosmetic-procedures-and-women-study/"&gt;Read full article&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3981764336918872244-5164739655260802430?l=skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com/feeds/5164739655260802430/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3981764336918872244&amp;postID=5164739655260802430' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3981764336918872244/posts/default/5164739655260802430'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3981764336918872244/posts/default/5164739655260802430'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com/2008/11/considering-medical-anti-aging.html' title='Considering Medical Anti-aging Treatments?'/><author><name>Becca Self</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07510487140429227286</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SQDnzJrfKOI/AAAAAAAAABA/EsxHfVcSt2Q/S220/Becca2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3981764336918872244.post-5702527240220622548</id><published>2008-11-07T10:45:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-07T10:50:00.662-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Reduce Wrinkles'/><title type='text'>Reduce Skin Wrinkles</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SRSNbgyXiLI/AAAAAAAAACY/j7HuufrYYII/s1600-h/bunch-BlueLEDs.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5265989368100128946" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SRSNbgyXiLI/AAAAAAAAACY/j7HuufrYYII/s200/bunch-BlueLEDs.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LED"&gt;LEDs&lt;/a&gt; may be the cure to wrinkles.

This election let everyone see that you made the right choice – the choice to be beautiful.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3981764336918872244-4166947581249995939?l=skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com/feeds/4166947581249995939/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3981764336918872244&amp;postID=4166947581249995939' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3981764336918872244/posts/default/4166947581249995939'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3981764336918872244/posts/default/4166947581249995939'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com/2008/11/election-day-results.html' title='Election Day Results'/><author><name>Becca Self</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07510487140429227286</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SQDnzJrfKOI/AAAAAAAAABA/EsxHfVcSt2Q/S220/Becca2.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SQ9ECvg0piI/AAAAAAAAACA/PjBKrwCHQ8Y/s72-c/vote.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3981764336918872244.post-44552786109774687</id><published>2008-10-29T10:53:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-11-06T10:10:37.327-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Nanoparticles'/><title type='text'>What’s In Your Skin</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SQij9K_Z3UI/AAAAAAAAAB4/eGxAktyK9aY/s1600-h/nanoparticles.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5262636435900063042" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 180px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SQij9K_Z3UI/AAAAAAAAAB4/eGxAktyK9aY/s200/nanoparticles.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;It’s almost impossible to think, but more things may be passing through your skin then you think. Tiny objects known as &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanoparticle"&gt;nanoparticles &lt;/a&gt;can breech your most personal protective barrier. “Nanoparticles are so small that they can actually seep through skin, especially when the skin has been damaged.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“The health implications of nanoparticles in the body are uncertain, said DeLouise, an assistant professor of Dermatology and Biomedical Engineering and an expert on the properties of nanoparticles. Other scientists have found that the particles can accumulate in the lymph system, the liver, the nervous system, and in other areas of the body.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The safety implications of this are still unknown and further research will be conducted in the future.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://nanotechwire.com/news.asp?nid=6708"&gt;Read full article&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3981764336918872244-44552786109774687?l=skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com/feeds/44552786109774687/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3981764336918872244&amp;postID=44552786109774687' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3981764336918872244/posts/default/44552786109774687'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3981764336918872244/posts/default/44552786109774687'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com/2008/10/whats-in-your-skin.html' title='What’s In Your Skin'/><author><name>Becca Self</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07510487140429227286</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SQDnzJrfKOI/AAAAAAAAABA/EsxHfVcSt2Q/S220/Becca2.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SQij9K_Z3UI/AAAAAAAAAB4/eGxAktyK9aY/s72-c/nanoparticles.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3981764336918872244.post-3236873554853663915</id><published>2008-10-28T14:32:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-28T14:38:44.341-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Beauty Editors'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Allure Magazine'/><title type='text'>Confessions of a Beauty Editor</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SQeGMKxOt2I/AAAAAAAAABw/lYGU5XdO6rc/s1600-h/allure.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5262322233213106018" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 152px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SQeGMKxOt2I/AAAAAAAAABw/lYGU5XdO6rc/s200/allure.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;THE TEN COMMANDMENTS&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;The beauty editors of &lt;a href="http://www.allure.com/"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Allure Magazine &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;have distilled thousands of makeup-artist interviews down to ten essential points:&lt;br /&gt;"1. Skip concealer beyond the middle of the undereye—it exaggerates wrinkles. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;2. Dab creamy cover-up on the inner corners of the eyes, by the bridge of the nose. This is the area that's darkest, and ironically, also the one most women forget. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;3. Press loose powder on the T-zone with a puff, paying special attention to the patch between the brows (which can look shinier because of waxing). &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;4. Curl lashes before applying mascara. It makes fringe look longer and eyes look bigger. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;5. Dab the gunky blob of excess mascara from the tip of the wand onto a tissue; otherwise, it'll leave a smudge or a splotch. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;6. If you have undereye circles, apply mascara to the top lashes only (on the bottom lashes, it can make dark circles look worse). &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;7. Apply an extra few coats of mascara to the outer corners of the lashes to make eyes look elongated. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;8. Don't line your lips with anything but a pencil that matches your natural lip color. Or skip it entirely. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;9. When in doubt, choose a pinkish-brown lipstick, and never apply it beyond the natural lip line or to the corners of your mouth—unless you want to look like the Joker. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;10. Before you go out, check your teeth, and rub off that lipstick."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://lifestyle.msn.com/your-look/makeup-skin-care-hair/articleallure.aspx?cp-documentid=11231480&amp;amp;page=1"&gt;Read full article&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3981764336918872244-3236873554853663915?l=skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com/feeds/3236873554853663915/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3981764336918872244&amp;postID=3236873554853663915' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3981764336918872244/posts/default/3236873554853663915'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3981764336918872244/posts/default/3236873554853663915'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com/2008/10/confessions-of-beauty-editor.html' title='Confessions of a Beauty Editor'/><author><name>Becca Self</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07510487140429227286</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SQDnzJrfKOI/AAAAAAAAABA/EsxHfVcSt2Q/S220/Becca2.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SQeGMKxOt2I/AAAAAAAAABw/lYGU5XdO6rc/s72-c/allure.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3981764336918872244.post-82706635342994866</id><published>2008-10-27T10:20:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-27T10:29:22.275-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Skin'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Green Tea'/><title type='text'>Drink Tea for Healthy Skin</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SQX6X0kg8PI/AAAAAAAAABo/BRDgUzJ2WQk/s1600-h/green-tea.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5261887026808025330" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 197px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SQX6X0kg8PI/AAAAAAAAABo/BRDgUzJ2WQk/s200/green-tea.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;In recent years, studies have proven a link between &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_tea"&gt;green tea &lt;/a&gt;and “skin-cell rejuvenation.” Hundreds of studies have been conducted on tea throughout the years but who would have thought that tea is good for your skin.

There are so many products to choose from but there are some key things to think about before selecting what cleanser is best for you. You should always remember everyone has a different skin tone, complexion, and composition. Therefore, skin cleansers can and will react differently with each person and can provide different results and reactions. After learning more about your own skin you will be better prepared to make the right purchase for you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you still aren't sure what's best for you, my product suggestions are &lt;a href="http://hydropeptide.com/"&gt;HydroPeptide's&lt;/a&gt; anti-aging infusing cleanser.  It has these great exfoliating beads that my clients just love and always ask about.  For a cheaper option and for extra sensitive skin I recommend Purpose Gentle Cleansing Wash by &lt;a href="http://www.jnj.com/"&gt;Johnson &amp;amp; Johnson&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More great information on skin cleansing:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.dermatologycare.ca/2/oct-24.php"&gt;Dermatology Care&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3981764336918872244-5420209042954886224?l=skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com/feeds/5420209042954886224/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3981764336918872244&amp;postID=5420209042954886224' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3981764336918872244/posts/default/5420209042954886224'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3981764336918872244/posts/default/5420209042954886224'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://skintipsbybecca.blogspot.com/2008/10/basics-of-cleansing.html' title='The Basics of Cleansing'/><author><name>Becca Self</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07510487140429227286</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4FSD-vWYse8/SQDnzJrfKOI/AAAAAAAAABA/EsxHfVcSt2Q/S220/Becca2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry></feed>
