SOAK IN OATMEAL
Oatmeal added to cool bathwater offers wonderful relief for sunburned skin.
Fill up the bathtub with cool, not cold, water because that can send the body into shock.
Don't use bath salts, oils or bubble bath. Instead, scoop half to one cup oatmeal - an ideal skin smoother - and mix it in.
COAT YOURSELF IN MILK
Cool of with a cold glass of milk. Don't drink it; put it right on your body.
Soak a facecloth in equal parts cold milk and cool water, wring it out, and gently press on sun-burned areas.

JOELIE BEAUTY AND COSMETICS ~ BACK TO NATURE
The latest treatments in the cosmetics world are boasting spring water, marine and deep sea ingredients.
WHAT'S THE HYPE?
- It's a science that focuses on the active properties in micro-organisms and vegetable cells, with the aim of generating pure raw material that are extremely gentle and efficient.
- They use 'green industrial' processes, which follow an ecologically-friendly method that doesn't harm nature.
- Most of the ingredients are natural elements, especially those found thriving in extremely hostile environments (thermal springs, and in the deepest areas of the sea), and so have a high level of defence against their natural environments. When applied on skin, these elements protect us from harmful environmental pollutants.

YOUR CRAVINGS DECODED
Dying for Oreos or chips? Your body could be trying to tell you something.
YOU CRAVE Salty or greasy foods.
IT COULD MEAN You're slightly dehydrated. Salt holds water in. You body may be trying to hang on to the fluids it's got, hence the craving.
YOU CRAVE Candy or chocolate.
IT COULD MEAN You need protein. Without it's slow-releasing energy, your body will try to get a quick fix to boost sugar - it contains 24 per cent of your daily protein needs.
YOU CRAVE Bread or pasta.
IT COULD MEAN You don't eat enough. Starches are already partially broken down, so your body knows carbs will give it the energy it needs, fast.

JOELIE BEAUTY AND COSMETICS ~ OVERNIGHT EYE REPAIR
Sleep deprivation is most apparent around the eye area, especially on the skin beneath the eyes that is the thinnest and most delicate compared with skin on the other parts of the body.
While eyecare products and treatments play an important role in firming up sagging skin and reducing eye bags, puffy eyes, fine lines and dark circles, the result of using them will ultimately depend on you getting enough shut-eye every night.
KEEP THIS IN MIND!
Most eyecare products come in the form of a cream, gel or serum and will absorb into the skin rapidly. Though they may cost a bit more, consider them an investment; they should replace the facial moisturizer you hoped would address your eye problems.
Get an eyecare product that is oil-free and does not give a stinging or burning sensation to your eyes (if this occurs, discontinue use immediately).

FREE RADICAL, WHAT?
Free radicals are by-products produced in body, which can also be found in our food and environment. The danger arises when there is an overload of free radicals in the body which terrorize our cells, causing damage and interfering with normal cell function.
Consumption of adequate antioxidants such as beta-carotene, vitamins C and E, zinc and selenium helps to prevent free radicals from damaging skin cells.

JOELIE BEAUTY AND COSMETICS ~ MAINTAINING HEALTHY YOUTHFUL SKIN
WHAT FACTORS CONTRIBUTE TO AGEING SKIN?
Diet and excess sun exposure are two of the biggest culprits for prematurely ageing skin. Eating pro-inflammatory foods such as sugary and starchy foods show up on the skin as a loss of radiance, tone and facial contours, dark circles under the eyes, puffiness, increase in fine lines and wrinkles, and increased pore size. These foods can also exacerbate acne, which is a systemic, inflammatory disease.
If your goal is to maintain youthful, radiant skin, avoid comsuming too much sugar, starchy carbohydrate foods and beverages.
WHAT IS THE KEY TO MAINTAINING HEALTHY, YOUTHFUL SKIN?
If you have less than perfect skin, remember that it always needs great nutrition - beauty from the inside out is key.
Follow dietary recommendations and don't skimp on proteins. Eat an anti-inflammatory diet rich in high-quality proteins, complex carbohydrates and essential fatty acids. Get at least seven to eight hours of sleep every night, and remember that any skincare regimen must begin from the inside out.
