What you may notice is that people who smoke or who have smoked for several years, can have older, more wrinkled skin. Also, anyone who loves sunbathing can often pay the price later on with ageing skin. A simple way to help protect and look after you skin is to always wear a moisturiser which has at least an SPF15, to help prevent ageing and loss of elasticity. You may not notice the difference every day, but once you get to forty (the age where bits start to drop off!) you'll start to notice a difference between you and other women your age. Don't forget to also put cream on your hands and neck, as these are areas of your skin which are also exposed to sunlight, that can show your age prematurely . 25th February 2008 Treat Your Feet & HandsIt's a bit of a strange time of year in the UK - winter is on the way out, but spring hasn't yet arrived. For those of us who need a bit of a boost, what could be better than treat your feet and hands to a little something - a pedicure or manicure. For the first time I had a pedicure which involved a paraffin wax treatment - this involves the rather crazy process of dipping each foot into hot wax, which initially feels warm and then has a little more bite ! These are then wrapped so that the heat and wax can help to moisturise the skin - the heat draws the blood flow and helps to revitalise tired feet. Once the wax is cooled it peels off in one "foot" and your feet are silky soft and healthy looking. If you're looking for a pick me up during the winter months - this is the ideal treat for both you and your body. 11th February 2008 Best Wedding SitesSince last writing, we've had great news - my son Martin is going to be getting married later this year to the wonderful Sofia.
