Skin care advice is worth its weight in gold when it directs the consumer to all natural skin care products. Healthy and glowing skin can be achieved by using natural skin care products and organic face care products, rather than ones containing synthetic ingredients. Take the time to verify skin care advice to make sure it is based on fact, and not hype.Organic face care moisturizers, lotions, and serums are becoming more and more visible on the shelves of department and drug stores throughout the country. Consumers are more educated about skin care and are more interested in the ingredients of their products than in previous years. The organic face care and skin care industry in general has responded to the consumer demand for more healthful products by offering a wide range of products that will fit almost every budget.There is a lot of hype out there concerning all natural skin care products. So, what skin care advice can you actually believe? When it comes to trusting what you hear and read, the thing to remember is to conduct your own research. Every consumer should be educated about the ingredients that are healthy for the skin. Read the labels on your skin care products to make certain they contain natural ingredients, before purchasing them.With that said, what ingredients should your skin care products contain? Organic face care products and other skin care products such as lotions, serums, cosmetics, anti-wrinkle creams, and shampoos, should contain only holistic and non-synthetic ingredients. When you apply lotion or any other skin care product to your skin, roughly 60% of the ingredients contained in that product will be absorbed through your skin and into your bloodstream. It makes perfect sense then, that the ingredients should be natural and therefore not harmful to our bodies.Keep in mind that skin care advice will come at you from every direction in the form of marketing campaigns. Be educated about your skin care and you’ll be prepared to choose your organic face care and skin care products with the best ingredients.Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant and will help your skin to battle the aging process. Vitamin E is effective in reducing the look of fine lines; laugh lines, and wrinkles on your skin. This vital ingredient defies the free radicals in the air by protecting your skin and giving the skin a healthy glow.Jojoba oil is another holistic ingredient contained in all natural skin care products, as well as organic face care products. It is essentially a vegetable oil, but its very make up mimics the naturally occurring oil in the skin called sebum, making it an excellent moisturizer for the skin. Skin that is kept moisturized will naturally appear younger and healthier.Many women show their age in and around the eye area. Organic face care products that contain grapeseed oil are a good choice. Research has revealed that grapeseed oil has a healing effect on the skin around the eyes, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines effectively.So there you have it. Just keep in mind that skin care advice is worth listening to if it directs you to all natural and organic skin care. These are the products that will have holistic and healthy ingredients that will provide results that will impress you.

Shoe Repairs And Several Other Things When I Was 7
Shoe Repairs And Several Other Things When I Was 7
My Dad repaired most of our shoes believe it or not, I can hardly believe it myself now. With 7 pairs of shoes always needing repairs I think he was quite clever to learn how to “Keep us in shoe Leather” to coin a phrase!
He bought several different sizes of cast iron cobbler’s “lasts”. Last, the old English “Laest” meaning footprint. Lasts were holding devices shaped like a human foot. I have no idea where he would have bought the shoe leather. Only that it was a beautiful creamy, shiny colour and the smell was lovely.
But I do remember our shoes turned upside down on and fitted into these lasts, my Dad cutting the leather around the shape of the shoe, and then hammering nails, into the leather shape. Sometimes we’d feel one or 2 of those nails poking through the insides of our shoes, but our dad always fixed it.
Hiking and Swimming Galas
Dad was a very outdoorsy type, unlike my mother, who was probably too busy indoors. She also enjoyed the peace and quiet when he took us off for the day!
Anyway, he often took us hiking in the mountains where we’d have a picnic of sandwiches and flasks of tea. And more often than not we went by steam train.
We loved poking our heads out of the window until our eyes hurt like mad from a blast of soot blowing back from the engine. But sore, bloodshot eyes never dampened our enthusiasm.
Dad was an avid swimmer and water polo player, and he used to take us to swimming galas, as they were called back then. He often took part in these galas. And again we always travelled by steam train.
Rowing Over To Ireland’s Eye
That’s what we did back then, we had to go by rowboat, the only way to get to Ireland’s eye, which is 15 minutes from mainland Howth. From there we could see Malahide, Lambay Island and Howth Head of course. These days you can take a Round Trip Cruise on a small cruise ship!
But we thoroughly enjoyed rowing and once there we couldn’t wait to climb the rocks, and have a swim. We picnicked and watched the friendly seals doing their thing and showing off.
Not to mention all kinds of birdlife including the Puffin.The Martello Tower was also interesting but a bit dangerous to attempt entering. I’m getting lost in the past as I write, and have to drag myself back to the present.
Fun Outings with The camera Club
Dad was also a very keen amateur photographer, and was a member of a camera Club. There were many Sunday photography outings and along with us came other kids of the members of the club.
And we always had great fun while the adults busied themselves taking photos of everything and anything, it seemed to us. Dad was so serious about his photography that he set up a dark room where he developed and printed his photographs.
All black and white at the time. He and his camera club entered many of their favourites in exhibitions throughout Europe. I’m quite proud to say that many cups and medals were won by Dad. They have been shared amongst all his grandchildren which I find quite special.
He liked taking portraits of us kids too, mostly when we were in a state of untidiness, usually during play. Dad always preferred the natural look of messy hair and clothes in the photos of his children.
