The Benefits of a Night Moisturizing Cream

A night cream can be one of the best choices when it comes to long-term potential. The cream can come with impressive overall benefits which can vary from better hydration to reduced wrinkles. This is why it is important to know that you can see great results when it comes to better overall skin.  If you want to check out the best all natural night cream you can click here.

Improved hydration

The hydration improvement benefit is great with the night cream. Since they get to act for such a long period of time, they will completely absorb into your skin and they thus represent a great solution for better texture and improved results when it comes to a healthier skin. Better hydration also means that you will get to avoid dry spots as well.

Reduced wrinkles

One of the visible effects of night creams comes with wrinkle-reduction. This is why it is important to know that a cream which acts during the night can be a great solution for fine lines and deeper wrinkles. While the final results differ from case to case, you can still see improvements in this area with the right cream. With fewer wrinkles, your skin will look better but it will also enjoy a better hydration level.

Improved natural look

When it comes to the natural glow of the skin, there are many steps you can take but in many cases, you will need to look for the solutions which allow you a great result when it comes to the natural look which is the hardest to maintain in some cases. This is why you need to look for the creams which allow you a great overall result in terms of helping the cell replenishment process of the skin.

Fight aging effects

Aging can be one of the most pressing problems for the skin. It comes to signal you that you will need a minimum care routine to minimize its effects. Cream which fight oxidative stress and which are made with antioxidants are thus a great recommendation. But fighting the effects of aging can also be done with fewer wrinkles and a skin which is properly hydrated and which looks natural. This can be achieved with a night cream within weeks to a certain degree. For the best results, it is also recommended to limit vices such as smoking which have a direct effect on the way your skin looks and feels on the long-term.

Keto Diet vs. the Atkins Diet

When you want to lose weight, there are many diets to choose from. But in all cases, it is important to know that you can see improved results and it may even be worth considering choosing between the Keto diet and the Atkins diet.

The Keto diet (ketosis weight loss) is one of the low carbohydrate diets but it differs as it uses Ketones for energy. With combined fats and protein intake, the diet thus represents a great solution for many people and it also works among the leading options when it comes to better overall weight management.

The Atkins diet is similar to a degree but it comes with different restrictions and phases which make it an option which is falling in popularity. While it can be easy to follow, the Atkins diet does not make the most out of ketone intake and for this reason, it can be one of the options which are not really recommended when it comes to better overall energy when losing weight.

With a better overall reaction when it comes to energy and weight loss, the Keto diet can be among the leading options when it comes to better overall fitness levels. Since it can be followed by many people, the Keto diet also works great for those seeking an improved overall result with the body fat reduction. It is also more complex when it comes to evolution as it follows some of the principles used in the nutrition of our ancestors. Thus, if carbohydrates were low during the winter time, people used fats and protein as energy sources. This is why it can be important to look for the solutions which allow you a good overall result with weight loss but which also have some type of sustainability.

The Atkins diet can also work well if you need a step by step guide. But it fails to capitalize on the benefits of ketones which can also be consumed from different products for a boost of energy. This also means that the Keto diet is superior in terms of sustainability as it allows you a good overall result for weight loss, especially in the conditions in which it is not made for those who do not want to track nutrition. Thus, for the best results in the future diets as well, the Keto diet can come with essential data on calories and macronutrients.

Here’s a massive guide with everything you need to know about low-carb keto diet from Groom+Style.

Plastic Surgery Three Things You Should Know

Want a nose job, a tummy tuck or some other cosmetic surgery or procedure? So do 17.5 million other Americans, or at least they did in 2017.

The American Society of Plastic Surgeons recently released its annual survey that reveals how many people are undergoing plastic surgery and what kinds of procedures they are seeking. The report showed a 2 percent increase in the number of surgical and minimally invasive cosmetic procedures performed in 2017 as compared to 2016.

“For some people plastic surgery probably still has a stigma attached to it, but millions more realize that improving yourself is okay and should be accepted,” says Dr. Deepak Raj Dugar (www.scarlessnose.com), a world-renowned Beverly Hills plastic surgeon who specializes in the Scarless Nose™, or closed rhinoplasty, procedure that leaves no sign of an incision.

Dugar says a few things to consider for anyone who is considering plastic surgery include:

  • Do you really need to change? Sometimes people are determined to change something about their bodies that really doesn’t need changing. “Not everyone needs surgery,” Dugar says. “I actually on occasion tell patients that their nose looks fine, they should leave it the way it is.”
  • Be sure you know what you’re getting. Patients can be disappointed if they and the plastic surgeon aren’t clear with each other on what to expect. “The patient needs to understand the limitations and goals of the surgery before undergoing it,” Dugar says. “For example, you might be expecting a dramatically different look, but the changes are actually much more understated. The only thing I get accused of is doing too little to a nose, and I’m totally okay with that.”
  • Safety is critical. “It’s important that your plastic surgeon picks safety over results,” Dugar says. “Safety has to and always should come first.”

The top five cosmetic surgical procedures in 2017 were, in order, breast augmentation, liposuction, nose reshaping, eyelid surgery and tummy tucks.

Meanwhile, the most popular minimally invasive procedures were Botox, soft-tissue fillers, chemical peel, laser-hair removal and microdermabrasion.

Dugar says one of the key features of successful plastic surgery is subtlety.

“The secret of Hollywood celebrities is doing Botox with plastic surgeons who understand the artistry behind the science,  where less is more,” he says.

Many Americans don’t want to go under the knife to achieve the changes they seek. The ASPS reported 15.7 million minimally invasive procedures were performed in 2017. Surgeries accounted for the remaining 1.8 million procedures.

Dugar says plastic surgeons often concentrate on specific procedures, as he does with closed rhinoplasty, so anyone considering cosmetic surgery should seek a surgeon whose experience lies in the procedure they desire.

“You don’t want the person who specializes in noses doing your breasts,” he says, “and you don’t want the one who specializes in breast augmentation doing your nose.”

Exercise For Your Age & Products For Exercise Days

Exercise is great, but, certain exercises can be more beneficial than others for different age groups. I actively participate in the  BoneBuildres of RI exercise classes. These are best suited for men and women over the age of 50. These classes are sponsored by The Village at Waterman Lake and only require a donation of $2 per class.

“The program is designed to be easily modified for each individual participant. The availability of multiple weight sizes allows all participants to start in their comfortable range of exertion and steadily progress as they get more comfortable with their ability. After more than a year of offering the program we’re excited to conclude that wellness is exactly what is achieved!” http://bonebuildersri.com/about-us/

For those of us over the age of 55, senior centers are the perfect place to find  exercise classes and programs for the senior age group. Yes, here in Rhode Island our senior centers give us access at age 55. Many centers offer Zumba, Yoga, Line Dancing, Tai Chi and more. Again for only a small donation fee for class and a maybe $10 to join. Let me tell you, today and 87 year old woman at Zumba class was “moving, moving, moving it like I could not believe!”

I also have a membership at a local gym and pop in there from time to time. This is where I first noticed the need to “exercise for my age”.  I was attending classes with young people, which is fine, I can keep up but I am no longer 20. There’s a difference between how we should work out in our 20s and how we should work out when we’re no longer 20.  Read more: http://www.oprah.com/health/exercise-for-your-20s-30s-40s-50s-and-60s_1/all#ixzz59wlIgSmD

Exercise should be like brushing your teeth at every age as long as you are able and your doctor approves.

LEUS Active Gym Towel, LEUS Yoga Mat Towel, Well-Kept Fitness Towelettes

I attend a lot of classes, sometimes more than one a day. I tote around a CALIA by Carrie Underwood Rolled Duffle Bag. When I am carrying some extra weights I go with my Rockland Rolling Duffle Bag. It is leopard and pink! I love my Ice Pops Cool It Caddy . It is great for keeping my make up cool in my Duffle Bags in the summer. I never go to the gym without mascara and lip stick. In the Cool It Cady, I also can stash any small snack fruits or my occasional chocolate bar.

I love my Well-Kept Fitness Towelettes (pictured above). They clean equipment, my weights, yoga mats and more. I like everything clean and sanitary, as we all should, of course. I always keep a stash in each of my bags for clean up before and after a class or workout. There are 26 eucalyptus-mint infused botanic fiber clothes in a pack. I never go without these.

My Yoga Mat Towel by LEUS (pictured above) is perfect for an under the sun or in class Yoga workout. It keeps my hands, feet and body parts in place when transitioning between poses. It’s surface slip resistant (spray with water to activate) and super for absorbing sweat. It’s also great for preventing  microbial growth on mats. If using a thin mat, the towel adds more comfort too. It’s light and tucks away neatly into my bag. I also use it in place of a standard mat while traveling.

The companion to my  Yoga Mat Towel is the LEUS 100% cotton Active Gym Towel (pictured above).  Again, it’s an item that easily tucks away into my bag and is a true necessity at the gym, in class or outside.

Lauren Orlando For Nation A-list Magazine March

Lauren Orlando is featured in the March issue of Nation A-list in an exclusive interview with the up and coming star. Lauren is a social media influencer and has a YouTube channel. Her brother Johnny Orlando is a singer and both of them have been taking the social media platforms by storm.

Lauren Orlando

Lauren Orlando

Lauren, tell us about your YouTube channel.

When I first started YouTube, most of the videos that I made were challenges with my brother and friends. Since then, I’ve started to focus more on making fashion, beauty and lifestyle content. I love YouTube because it lets me connect with supporters and gives me a chance to be creative in ways other that social media doesn’t.

How did it come about?

I made a YouTube channel after seeing how much fun my brother Johnny was having with his. We collaborated a lot in the beginning, which definitely helped me to build my subscriber base.

What is your favorite video from your channel?

I loved the smoothie challenge that I filmed with Johnny! Even though it was super gross to film, the video was hilarious.

What are your hobbies?

I like listening to music, watching Netflix, skiing and playing soccer.

Tell us about your upcoming projects.

I just announced that I will be the face of Mudd’s first-ever girls line this year, which is super exciting! I have some other projects in the works as well, but they’re secret for now.

We see that you travel a lot, do you have any traveling tips that make it funnier.

I love exploring the city that I’m visiting with my family. It’s always fun to have a group of people to travel with. My sisters and I also search up the best restaurants and stores in the city on Instagram and make sure we visit them.

What is your favorite food?

My favorite food is definitely chocolate. I love desserts!

What are your must have’s in your bag?  I always have lip balm with me.

Where is your favorite places to shop when in Los Angeles?

I love shopping at the Grove. My favorite stores are Top Shop and Brandy Melville.

If you could live anywhere in the world where would it be?

I’d live in Los Angeles because it’s sunny almost every day. There’s nothing better than that!

Do you have advice for anyone wanting to start a YouTube channel?

I’d tell them to go for it and not to worry about what anyone else thinks. Make content that you love and genuinely enjoy filming as well.

What are the pros and cons of having a YouTube channel?

There’s definitely more pros than cons. The best part about having a YouTube channel is being able to share myself and my life with the people who watch my videos. I try to be as real and genuine as possible and I feel like my viewers can really get to know me this way. One con is finding the time to come up with new ideas for content and to film and edit my videos. I always want to make sure that the things I post are good quality and that they’re fun and exciting to watch. Balancing YouTube and school can sometimes be a challenge for sure.

What is your favorite place to eat in Los Angeles?

My favorite restaurant in LA is Madeo, it’s an Italian restaurant in West Hollywood and has the most amazing pasta. I also love Chipotle, the best!!

Who do you look up to?

A celebrity that I look up to is Zendaya. I think that she’s such a good role model for girls, which is something that I strive to be as well.

Have you been bullied online and if so how do you deal with it?

I’ve definitely been bullied online. Some of the comments that people write on Instagram and YouTube are so mean! I usually deal with it by just ignoring it. Instead, I make sure that I surround myself with supportive and positive people who are there to help me reach my goals!

What Busy Moms Do To Stay Looking Glam

It’s not easy being a busy mother who has to try and do it all and take care of herself at the same time. You may look around at others and wonder how they do it. Luckily, there are tips and tricks for you to try that will help you feel your best and maintain a beauty routine that works for you.

Don’t let a busy schedule be an excuse for not attending to your needs any longer. It’s time to step up and take control of your life and make some real changes that will stick. Learn what busy moms do to stay looking glam, and you too can start feeling better about yourself in no time.

Always Make Time for Exercise

If there’s one habit, you need to get into it’s that you should exercise daily. Never skip working your mind and body with a good sweat session. Hit the gym, go for a run or walk during your lunch hour. Busy moms don’t let their schedule be an excuse for why they can’t workout. They make sure exercise is a part of their day no matter what. Either take a yoga class nearby or get a treadmill in your basement to use in the early morning or after work.

Attend to their Hair, Nails & Makeup

If there are any parts of your body that you should take care of regardless of how tired you are or where you’re going, it’s your hair, nails, and makeup. Find a trusted hair salon and stylist who knows exactly what kind of cut and color you need to look your best. It’s also a good idea to invest in some decent makeup that will brighten up your face. As for your nails, either paint them yourself at home or find a salon you like going to where they do a good job and have trendy colors in stock.

Have A Versatile Wardrobe & Go-to Outfits

What you wear matters, but it’s hard to think through outfits when you’re overtired and rushing to work. That’s why you need to plan ahead and come up with a wardrobe that’s easy, yet stylish. Have go-to outfits that are simple to maintain and different clothing pieces that you can mix and match. It’s also smart to wear garments that can be transformed from day to night in case you’re talked into cocktails or have a late dinner meeting.

Get their Beauty Sleep

Busy moms know their sleep comes first, and without it, they’re a mess. Go to bed at a decent hour and get up around the same time each day. This will help your body remain on a sleep schedule, and it’ll be easier to wake up in the morning. Also, take breaks and rest when you need it. Don’t try to power through your tasks when you’re low energy and could use a nap.

Conclusion

It’s good to be busy, but your demanding lifestyle will become an issue if you’re not taking care of yourself. Stay looking glam with these tips and continue to be the fantastic mom that you are. Your mood will be lifted, and you’ll look and feel fabulous. What more could you want?
