A poll conducted on 2016 British women revealed that women on average use of 515 chemicals every day. Chemicals were obtained from a variety of beauty products are used, ranging from cleansers, moisturizers, deodorant, lipstick, to perfume.

More than a third of women surveyed said that they do not care about the content of the materials contained in the cosmetics used. Whereas, for example, a skin moisturizer product containing more than 30 types of chemicals or perfumes that contain 400 kinds of chemicals.

When the poll was conducted in Indonesia, the results may not be much different. The reason, the need to look beautiful and maintain the beauty of the skin has now become the need of women wherever they are.

“Women in the modern era has become so concerned with appearances. Grooming tools they underwent very rapid changes in recent years. If the face is cleansed before, so now there are different kinds of treatment cream is used,” said one researcher.

New generation of cosmetics known to contain more active chemicals, along with technological advances in the field of beauty and variety of extra benefits consumers are looking for. If in the past, a woman has had enough to use anti-wrinkle cream, then now is not complete if they do not use a special cream to treat eye bags eye problems, for example.

“For decades the doctors from the American Academy of Dermatology says that stress is not a factor in acne. In fact, since the longer we know that acne often appears when we’re longing lover,” said Ted Grossbart, PhD, professor of psychology at Harvard Medical School.

Now, some skin experts began to see problems in a holistic skin and psychological healing techniques tried through hypnosis, meditation, and counseling to heal skin problems.

“Studies show that 30-60 percent of patients seeing doctors for his skin problems have emotional problems. The problem is caused by stress not only triggers the skin disorder, but also make medical drugs to be useless,” said Grossbart who has written a book Skin Deep: A New Mind / Body Program for Healthy Skin.

One had a skin problem closely related to one’s emotional condition is psoriasis. This disease will cause spots on the skin accompanied by pain. Psoriasis is a disease can survive and appear suddenly, especially if the patient was experiencing emotional stress.

Skin and mind

Scientists long ago discovered that the skin is closely related to the brain and nervous system, which one of his jobs is to manage stress. “The skin and brain have a lot of interconnection. The skin has a lot of nerves and related tissue vascular system,” says Amy Wechsler, MD, dermatologist and psychiatrist.

He added that the chemicals produced by the brain to respond to stress will wander down to the skin. Emotional imbalances caused by stress due to the demands of work, romance issues, to finance, can cause chemical interference called neuropeptides that will cause interference in the skin.

It can trigger inflammation, widen blood vessels, or increase the production of oil glands that eventually will cause problems in the skin.

“Acne, psoriasis, wrinkles, or dark circles around the eyes will get worse when we are stressed or lack of sleep,” said Wechsler, also author of The Mind-Beauty Connection this.

Research in the year 2007 of the students showed, 23 percent of respondents admitted acne often arise during the exam season. Meanwhile, research conducted in 2002 by British researchers found that psoriasis patients improved after they followed the cognitive-behavioral therapy.

Relaxation method body and mind, like meditation, yoga, and tai chi, is believed to reduce the circulation of neuropeptides. “Managing emotions and thoughts will make the skin more tolerant of a variety of pain, such as allergens, irritants, or cosmetics,” says Richard Fried, MD, PhD, a dermatologist and director of the Acne and Rosacea Society.

Another factor that makes skin wrinkled her fast is the number of blood vessels in the vicinity of the mouth so that less blood circulation to this area less. If a little blood flow, oxygen and nutrients are needed not easily reach the surface of the skin, but all that is needed to repair damages skin cells.

“Naturally, the woman’s muscles around his mouth closer to the skin effect more quickly attracted to the skin and cause wrinkles more quickly,” said Dr. Moshe Kon, head of the department of plastic surgery, reconstructive and hand from the University Medical Center Utrecht, The Netherlands.

Although the number of hair follicles in men and women equal, but men have more sweat glands in each hair follicle. This is unfortunate because the skin will be more relaxed.

In addition, the hormone also affects the acceleration of skin aging women. “Differences in health and disease many men and women caused by estrogen,” said Dr. Seth Thaller, chief of plastic surgery at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, United States.

In menopausal women who have reduced estrogen hormones, blood circulation also decreases, this is once again contribute to the emergence of lines.

Another factor that can not be changed is the jaw bone changes as you get older. “The older, the jawbone we will absorb more slowly so that the bone was shrinking. As a result the skin becomes loose because no one has held him back,” said Dr. Jessie Cheung, director of cosmetic dermatology at NYU Langone Medical Center, New York, USA.

Various cosmetic measures, including botox injections until the withdrawal of the skin (face lift) was able to drive out the wrinkles on the face. However, according to Cheung wisest way to keep skin young is to keep the skin moisture, avoid the sun and not smoking

Let’s start with some of the more off the wall skin care tips I can give you.  Many of these are situational, but they all fit into the lives of many of you and can certainly be effective if used properly.

First tip, for you smokers, do all you can to stop smoking.  Smoking is one of the worst things you can do if you care about your skin.  There are numerous toxins in cigarettes, and the habitual facial expressions actually induce wrinkles.  Think about how many times you see a life-long smoker with good skin.  It simply doesn’t happen.

So, while I would say that stopping smoking entirely is a great start to better skin, my tip for those of you who need the nicotine fix is this:  use an electronic cigarette.  There are numerous models out there, and by using an electronic cigarette, you are essentially keeping many of the toxins away from your skin.  While you are still making a habitual facial expression, the amount of toxins is greatly reduced when you don’t have actual smoke blowing around your face constantly.

Second, sleep on your back.  When you sleep on your stomach or on your side, you often times scrunch your face.  What this does is make the constant facial expressions, which as noted above, helps wrinkles form.  Try to sleep on your back as much as possible.  It can be difficult, but it’s proven as an effective way to prevent wrinkles.

Lastly, here is one to surely get a rise out of your family.  If you are looking to improve your skin’s texture and quality, cover yourself in an avocado.  Simply remove the pit and mash up the green material, and lather it all over your body.  Avocado’s are a great natural moisturizer, and using avocado on your skin can be a great way to smooth it out and add moisture.  Just be sure you have a shower handy so you can wash it off when you are finished.  If you look at some of the premier spa’s in the world, you will find that avocado body wraps are popular, as are facials that contain avocado as an ingredient.

While this advice may be off-the-wall, you can follow this skin care advice and be happy with the results these treatments leave on your skin.

After the skin is clean, the second step is to massage or massage with chocolate oil. “In this stage, you will feel how higher oil content of brown and softness than other oils,” says Janny.

Step three, giving a brown powder that has so dilumerkan a thick liquid. To obtain maximum results, the entire skin should be smeared without exception. At this stage, you will feel the warmth of the entire body. From this fact the skin repair process begins.

Therefore, for the warmth maximum benefit, the last stage is to wrap a special plastic. The goal for the warmth it can be limited and does not evaporate. Temperature is maintained in the skin will certainly make the skin pores open so that the mixture of oil and cocoa powder will be absorbed by the skin. “Packaging is like wrapping a mummy in order to get maximum results. You do not have worried because the results could be you prove. Wrinkly skin was so tight, clean, and smooth as baby skin,” says Janny.

After between 10 and 15 minutes terbungukus body, the patient can shower right next to cleanse the body. “You do not need to fear. Brown oil is not difficult to remove such kind of oil. Besides easy to clean, oil is not sticky brown skin.”

Besides not yet popular, method of topical treatment with a brown leather this is fairly expensive. In fact, if done perfectly, the use of oil and cocoa powder are the costs could reach Rp 20 million more.

In fact, the price per kuintalnya mixture of about USD 20 million. The reason this makes topical methods are considered more practical, let alone the result was no less polished than the bath.
