Stupid Tip of the Day: Make a Face, It will Stay That Way.

When you were little, someone may have told you don’t make a funny face, it will stay that way! Yes and no, Making a funny face can hurt you in the long run. For instance, if you practice frowning often, the corners of your mouth may droop, in the years to come. But, as I mentioned the other day, facial yoga, is the art of making funny faces and reaping the benefits of it.

Sticking out your tongue and stretching out your jaw and holding it for
30 seconds and repeating 3 times, can tighten up your jaw line and neck.

Be a Fishy Face. Make you fish lips and puff out your cheeks instead of sucking in, tap on each cheek 30 times. Next, take those fish lips and look up, stretching your neck as tall as you can, and blow kisses to the sky. Do ten kisses, relax and repeat 3 times.

Get mad? No prevent it. Take those two fingers and place them in between the eyebrows at the top of the nose. Push your eyebrows apart with your fingers, while trying to push them together with your facial muscles. Hold position for 30 seconds. Relax, then, repeat 3 times.

These small yoga routines, can prevent wrinkles and help existing wrinkles. After your facial work out close your eyes and relax your face for 1 minute at least. This will help the muscles remember and gain strength to do what they’re not supposed to do do anymore.

To Botox or Not.

To Botox or Not.

Problem: Hi Tia, love your stuff! I wanted to ask, since you talk about natural remedies, but what do you think about botox for skin care?

Tip fromTia:

Cosmetic procedures, which I think do have positive
effects on certain individuals, benefits skin that has lost elasticity,
hydration and reduced collagen, which are all factors that are harder to maintain
naturally, when it comes with maturing. Also, botox is great for those
that have sun damage in lines of facial expression, to allow that
surface to heal flat, not within a crevice.

I think the earlier you start your skin care treatments, the longer lasting results are, to keep good skin.
But, I don’t think that means run out and get major cosmetic treatments, first. There are great ways to keep your skin youthful, yes, naturally.

And for those teenagers, already thinking about getting botox, you should know that your skin still
has a bunch of natural elements, where powerful chemicals could be completely unnecessary right now. Prevention is a major factor with other, simpler regimens.

But, if you are just starting to see signs of aging, you can prevent or slow down the process with good diet; fish, veggies and nuts, limit sun exposure with sun block and SPF, vitamins and herbals, drink plenty of water and try the newest trend, facial yoga. Which that will help the face muscles build strength and elasticity.

After trying all that, if you are still unhappy or the process of aging is further along then you’d like, then, make an appointment with a well respected doctor and you can discuss your options. Remember botox lasts for several months in the system, and there are other brands out there than Botox that do the same thing yet, have different ingredients. One product is made with yeast while the other, is made with lactose and cow protein. If you have reoccurring fungal infections talk to you doctor, and they may suggest staying away from the yeast based one. The point I’m trying to make is, do your research, before you act.

Bleaching Skin or Nails. Quickie:

Quickie: Bleaching Skin or Nails.

So, we have talked about other options to remove dye stains from skin or yellowing of nails, but after receiving questions on it, one other option is bleach. Yet, I don’t recommend it for little or sensitive hands, unless using extreme caution.

It’s very effective. Bleach will burn off, the discolor. It only takes a few seconds to a minute or two, to work completely. After that, wash your hands and skin immediately and thoroughly, to neutralize the area.

Safety is a must, when doing this method. Be sure to keep it away from mouth, eyes and broken skin.
