All You Need To Know About Semi-Permanent Cosmetics

Expert Author Catherine M Blackburn
Semi-permanent makeup, also called micro pigmentation is a procedure that places tiny particles of pigment below the surface of the skin. The process is similar to tattooing, but there are important differences. Tattooing is permanent, and micro-pigmentation or semi-permanent makeup, as the name suggests, isn't. The reason that tattoos are permanent and micro pigmentation isn't, comes down to how deep the pigment is placed. Tattooing is much deeper, placing the pigment in the hypodermis (the third layer of the skin). Semi-permanent makeup (micro pigmentation) places the pigment in the epidermis and the dermis (the top two layers of skin). Here it can be broken down over time by the body, and this causes it to fade over time. Typically it takes about 18 months to fade.
Semi-permanent cosmetic can be used to enhance eyebrows, lips and eyelash line. It can also be used to create the appearance of hair stubble for men who have lost their hair and want to look shaven rather than shiny bald. More advanced forms of micro pigmentation can be used to cover scars and even to reconstruct the areola for women having undergone mastectomy and breast reconstruction.
Before the procedure begins, cosmetic pencils are used to simulate the results of the final treatment and to provide a template for the technician to follow. The technician will also discuss your skin tone to make sure the correct pigment colour is chosen.
For some areas, an anaesthetic cream may be necessary so that you have a comfortable treatment. The pigment is then applied to the skin with the micro pigmentation device. The device uses a very fine needle to push the pigment into the dermal layer of the skin. A further treatment is usually needed around two weeks later to perfect the results.
Your micro pigmentation technician should give you full after care instructions. Generally, they will advise you not to expose the area to sunlight and avoid swimming for several weeks, avoid makeup, don't pick any flaking skin, don't wear contact lenses if the eye area has been treated for the week or so after treatment. They may advise you use Vaseline over the treatment area for a few days.
The micro pigmentation will last somewhere between 12 and 18 months on average.The initial results may look a little dark, but the pigment will lighten after a few days. There may also be some initial swelling or minor bruising which will resolve fairly quickly after treatment.
All in all semi-permanent makeup is a fairly low-risk procedure with many benefits. For those wanting to look gorgeous straight out of bed in the morning, then it is the ideal solution. It is also a huge benefit to those who may be sight impaired or those who don't have a steady hand, relieving them of the chore of trying to apply makeup. Whatever your reason for wanting semi-permanent makeup, always check the credentials of the technician who will be performing your procedure and check they are fully insured. It is also a good idea to ask them If they have a portfolio of their work to show you.
Evolutions Clinic in Winchester offers non surgical cosmetic treatments including semi-permanent makeup or micro pigmentation. Our technician Naomi is extremely experienced and trains other semi-permanent cosmetic technicians across the south of England. http://www.evolutionsclinic.co.uk/semi-permanent-makeup-in-winchester/

Castor Oil, the Best Beauty Secret Ever
By Christina M Hall | Submitted On December 15, 2016

Expert Author Christina M Hall
I will tell you that I absolutely love castor oil and that I use it daily. I honestly believe that castor oil is the best beauty secret ever, especially for those of us in middle age. It has so many benefits, but very few women know that it can do AMAZING things in the anti-aging category! What is this oil anyways? It is a colorless to pale yellow oil that is obtained by pressing the seeds of the castor oil plant. It also has the name Palma Christi or palm of Christ because the leaf is divided and resembles a palm and its seeds have even been found in Egyptian tombs dating back to 4000 BC.
Castor oil has a lot of viscosity, it is sticky and thick. I have been applying castor oil daily to my face and neck area for at least three years now. You only need a drop or two when applying it to your face because it goes a long way. I would gently apply it even over your lashes and eyebrows as this encourages growth. You will find that it immediately moisturizes your face or other body parts deeply and what's best about it is that there are NO chemicals to this anti-aging beauty regimen if you use the organic variation.
After applying the castor oil, I also follow it up with a combination of essentials oils that includes frankincense, spikenard (lavender) and neroli. Not only do I get the moisturizing effect of castor, but I extend its value with the other oils whose properties are antiviral and immune stimulating, not to mention all the other direct benefits. I apply my makeup after applying the oil and it goes on much smoother, especially around the eyes. By the way, I know this combination is great for acne as well!
Years back I did not really understand the benefits of all these natural products, but I have since opened my eyes. With all the chemicals in today's world and all the oxidation or "rusting" that occurs in our bodies, why not give yourself a few extra years of additional health?
Women spend millions of dollars for anti-aging creams and cosmetics. Not only is this a simple and healthier solution, it is cheaper! I no longer use man-made chemicals, whether it is my face wash, hair dye, shampoo, makeup or skin care. At first the transition was a bit costly, but now it's about the same without putting these chemicals into my bloodstream. I don't even have to wash my face at the end of the day because most of what I use is simply antioxidants made from nature.
We can do plenty to slow down our aging, and I know personally that castor oil with the combination of essential oils can keep the wrinkles detained for just a bit longer. Who knows, maybe this palm of Christ has just the healing effect we're looking for!
Note: Not recommended for pregnant women.
Castor oil is one of the best kept beauty secrets ever. It can revitalize your skin immediately and it's 100% natural.

Getting Rid of Unwanted Facial and Body Hair With Laser Hair Removal Treatment

Expert Author Mags Whyler
Excess hair on the face and body can cause much embarrassment, so the thought of permanent hair removal, without using razors, hot wax or plucking is a truly enticing one. Fortunately for those of us who suffer from having unwanted hair, laser hair removal is a fabulous, pain-free alternative.
Shaving, tweezing, waxing and using depilatory creams are time-consuming and they're only temporary. Long lasting results with a laser is a better alternative, as we can treat both small and large areas quickly, comfortably and effectively, compared to other methods. Electrolysis can also permanently remove hair, but it's an extremely slow and painful method, and can sometimes result in scarring.
Laser energy gets absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicle and is then converted to heat, causing thermal damage to the follicle, but without harming the surrounding skin. This results in hair growth being stopped in the damaged follicle. Advanced laser systems have a cooled sapphire window on the laserscope, to further protect and cool the surface of the skin, while allowing laser light to heat the hair follicle beneath the skin.
We can remove hair almost permanently from:
Upper lip
Chin
Forearms
Underarms
Legs
Bikini line
Back
Benefits of laser hair removal treatment:
Saving money - Although laser hair removal may seem expensive, it's permanent, so when you add up the cost of what you spend over a lifetime, on shaving, waxing, plucking or depilatory creams, it becomes a great investment.
Saving time - Once the need for your weekly shaving or monthly waxing is over, you will have lots of spare time. You will no longer have to spend your lunch hour having your bikini line waxed and you can spend less time in the shower, now you don't have to shave your armpits and legs. Removing unwanted hair is very time-consuming and it's said that the average UK woman will spend a total of four months of their life removing unwanted body and facial hair.
Renews self-confidence - Unwanted hair in undesirable places can take a toll on the self-esteem, whether it's a man with an excessive hairy back or chest or a woman with embarrassing facial hair. Removing hair with lasers can take away the unwanted hair and help you get back that lost confidence.
Improves skin - Removing your hair with laser treatments can give leave you with much smoother and silkier skin than any other hair removal methods.
Laser treatment isn't an instant solution, the hair won't disappear straight after the first treatment. Generally you will need around 6 treatments, spaced 4-6 weeks apart, which usually results in 80% of hair removal. Depending on which area you are treating, it can take from 10 minutes for the upper lip, to 45 minutes for the back.
Most clients only experience minimal discomfort; some may experience a minor stinging sensation on the skin as we deliver the laser pulses and we can offer topical anaesthetic cream to make treatments more comfortable.
Do you need help choosing a cosmetic procedure? We provide an extensive range of cosmetic procedures for the face and body to help create a younger, slimmer, more youthful looking you!
Botox, Vaser Lipo, Lip Augmentation, Dermal Fillers, Laser Hair Removal and many more treatments are available.

Ten Things Highly Successful Women Would Have Done Differently In High School
By Madison P Singh | Submitted On September 05, 2016
Recommend Article Article Comments Print Article
Expert Author Madison P Singh
"What lies behind you and what lies in front of you, pales in comparison to what lies inside of you" - Ralph Waldo Emerson
About a year ago, I read an article written by someone who was giving advice to her younger self. I found it interesting, as I am always interested in learning from my mistakes and the mistakes of others. I am very focused on success for young women in high school and I thought it might be interesting to find out what some of the most successful women would have done differently in high school. High school really is the springboard to future success and I am forever and always a proponent of hard work and high achievement.
I devised a questionnaire and asked 60 highly successful women what advice they would give to current high school girls yearning for great successes in their lives, as well. My list of successful women included those that had reached the pinnacle of success in their respective fields, such as a Supreme Court Justice, several Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officers, Law and Medical Professors at the most elite colleges in the country, a University President, a Governor, several Senators, a championship winning athlete, an Academy Award winning actress and a Pulitzer Prize winning author. Although it took me about a year to contact and compile my responses from these women, I was pleasantly surprised at their willingness to communicate their experiences and advice with me. It was also interesting that many of these women shared similar responses. In my prior research studies, high school girls who successfully embraced this advice ended up at the most elite colleges in the country. There may not be a scientific correlation at this time, but it is an interesting outcome, nonetheless. I have published this in my other articles, which I encourage you to read.
The following are the top ten things these highly successful women would have done differently in high school and some advice they shared, ranked in order of the most responses:
1. Never Let Go Of Your Dreams And Dream Big- Your dreams become your inspiration to work harder and set goals for high achievement. These women related they purposely picked goals that were difficult to achieve, such as making partner in a prestigious law firm or becoming a tenured professor by the age of 35, becoming a Supreme Court Justice and running for the office of Governor and winning. Just because a state has never elected a female Governor before doesn't mean it can't happen. If you believe in yourself, you can make it happen. If you focus, work hard enough and stay away from the distractions in high school, anything is possible. Many of the women interviewed told me that high school, retrospectively, is a little part of a bigger picture and they focused on the long term, not the short term. They advised to stay away from the drama and negative peer pressure in high school and just follow your own unique path.
2. Learn To Say "No"- Don't pretend to be something you are not; be yourself. You are not out to please the world and you shouldn't do anything you are not comfortable doing. "No" is a very powerful word and the respondents alluded it will serve you well in the future if you learn this now. They also commented is it better to excel in a few areas than to spread yourself so thin you can't excel at anything. They also reiterated that parents are usually right, so listen to them and don't discount their advice and opinions because experience does matter.
3. Success And Money Really Are A Result Of Hard Work, Grit & Determination- Sorry to burst your bubble, but there really is no free ride or luck that takes you to the top. It is all about hard work, determination and dedication. These women kept themselves focused on the end result and worked longer hours and networked more than their peers. They were willing to take risks, work harder and pursue higher levels of education. An interesting point was all these women sacrificed something today for a greater return tomorrow. The respondents related their exceptionalism and their drive to keep achieving as drivers of their success.
4. Stay Away From People Who Tell You That You Can't- The overwhelming advice on this point was not to let others judge you. It doesn't matter what others think about you, it's what you think of yourself that makes all the difference. It is this strong sense of self that will point you in the direction and the choices you will eventually have to make to determine your future endeavors. Keeping toxic people out of your life allows you to succeed and focus on accomplishing your goals. They also advised not to give up on something you are passionate about. Many told me they regretted quitting playing the piano or another musical instrument and cannot afford the time to learn it today. Time is precious and they advised sticking to a hobby or passion, as it will enrich your life at a later time.
5. Grudges Will Never Take You Anywhere, Let Them Go- It is important to understand that everyone has an opinion or belief that may differ from yours and should be the basis for discussion and learning, not resentment and avoidance. The capacity to forgive has produced great leaders, such as Nelson Mandela and Mahatma Gandhi, who recognized that by forgiving people that hold you back, that have managed to hurt you, and forgiving yourself for the people whom you have hurt, you alleviate the toxicity that steals your energy, ambition and self-confidence. Essentially, it diminishes your leadership ability. Learn from the past and embrace the future.
6. Take Care Of Yourself Now- Studies keep coming out that show what we do when are younger may have dire consequences on us when we age. Now is the time to develop healthy lifestyle changes. Exercising and eating healthy, along with the determination not to smoke, take drugs or abuse alcohol, are all imperative for leading a longer, happier and more successful life. Get at least seven hours of sleep a night and try to avoid the drive through. The respondents said these bad habits will show up in your 30's and 40's and prevention is the key.
7. Be Curious And Take Risks- "You can't cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water", is a famous quote by Rabindranath Tagore. Every reaction requires an action. You'll never achieve your goals if you don't take a chance. With every decision comes risk, but you only need to win more than not. The fact is you are not even in the game without taking the risk of stepping in. Take the road less traveled- these respondents said it made all the difference in their lives.
8. Failure Is Inevitable, But It Can Make You Stronger- One thing these women had in common is they were rejected from something they intensely wanted at least one time. Each one took it as a sign to work even harder and that's what they attribute to their great success. Every one of your failures is laying out a path for your eventual success. Michael Jordan, who is regarded as the greatest basketball player in history, was cut from his varsity team numerous times and said, "I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed." How do you really know what a success is if you have not experienced a failure? These women advised embracing the failure and working harder to get an even better outcome.
9. Study, Study and Study- Get off the video games and reality television and put the time into improving your grades. With all the social media out there, it is hard to not let it invade your life, but you must. The difference between a valedictorian and a salutatorian can typically come down to one grade in high school. Colleges love to boast about the number of valedictorians and often provide greater scholarships and admissions. Students who work hard and achieve in high school learn to develop high expectations and demand stellar outcomes from themselves, which, in turn, become life-long traits. As Socrates said so eloquently, "Wisdom begins in Wonder", so start contemplating and studying.
10. Get Into The College You Really Want To Attend- According to Vanderbilt economics and law professor Joni Hersch, who has researched and published on this subject, students who attend low-tier undergraduate institutions seldom transition to top-tier graduate schools. Even more daunting is those who do, rarely achieve the earnings power of peers who attended elite colleges. Women have it much tougher- A lower tier college graduate who attended a higher tier law school, as an example, earns only about 60 percent of the salary of a lawyer with a bachelor's degree from an elite level college. Christopher Avery, a professor of public policy at Harvard's John F. Kennedy School of Government, has published and researched college as a mode of social mobility. Students who earn a degree from an elite college, even those with unremarkable grades and test scores, are handily too far ahead of those who don't, which is why they will never catch up. The networks, resources and teaching at the elite schools typically cannot be rivaled by other colleges and set the path for success into motion. The most elite recruiters go to the most elite colleges. Recruiters often like to select candidates from the elite colleges they attended. The take away here is work hard and get into the best college you can. It will make a difference, according to the respondents and the research.
This was an interesting and thought provoking project for me personally. As a high school sophomore with two high achieving sisters currently attending elite colleges, I have seen firsthand how the right choices in high school can impact options for future success. I hope this list helps guide you to a life filled with opportunity.
Have you ever wondered what advice some the most successful women in this country would give to current high school girls? I did and I spent over a year contacting women who have reached the pinnacle of achievement in their respective fields and created a questionnaire to get some pearls of wisdom. As a high school sophomore highly focused on education and success, I compiled a top ten list of things these women would do differently in high school, if given the opportunity. Hopefully, it will put you on a path of success, as well!

50 Is the New Who Cares
By Terri S Hardesty | Submitted On June 29, 2016
Recommend Article Article Comments Print Article
I remember my fear about turning 40. I thought the gig was over, that men would no longer look at me and that my job prospects were dim at best. Last year I turned 50, and I wish I could say I accepted it with grace, but more with dread and sadness. Even though I don't have children, I'd become a grandma overnight. I still see myself as a young, vibrant women. However, a quick glance in the mirror (especially with fluorescent lighting) squashes any hopes of my seeing a dewy faced, ageless beauty.
But the fear is not just about looks, it's about getting closer to death. I used to hear people say from time to that life is not a dress rehearsal. But that's exactly how I lived my life, always waiting for something to happen, until then I would stay safe and cozy inside my comfort zone. "One day I'll take those piano lessons." I know I will travel, soon." "I would love to learn Spanish, but I'll do it later."
You get the picture. These things don't come unless you make them happen. And I'm now taking action and cultivating my passions and hobbies. For example, today I took a 20 bike ride, recently planted a garden, and I'm just about to sign up for tennis and voice lessons. These are things I always wanted to do. I'm no longer saying tomorrow... it's now.
The beauty of getting to be a half-century old is you no longer have to be in denial. Time is running out. You have no more to waste!
The fist step is to practice acceptance. Once you accomplish this you can move on and truly start living--maybe for the first time in your life. You can make it a wild, vibrant, exciting adventure. The trick is not to dwell on how you wish things were different.
So what is acceptance? You've heard the serenity prayer: God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference. This is a very wise verse used in twelve step programs across the globe.
These words from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous sums it up nicely:
"And acceptance is the answer to all my problems today. When I am disturbed, it is because I find some person, place, thing or situation--some fact of my life--unacceptable to me, and I can find no serenity until I accept that person, place, thing or situation as being exactly the way it is supposed to be at this moment.
This is so true when it comes to the aging process. By going out and getting Botox shots, cosmetic procedures and body enhancements, you are in denial and only delaying what one day you will have to confront, an aging body that will enviably die. Until then you will cling to the complements you get when people say you don't look your age; crave those moments when people ask you what's your secret. But those comments just delay time, time you don't have if you want to evolve. You accept where you are in life and then the miracles can begin. You start building from a firm foundation that will carry you through the second chapter of your life.
As I gain more acceptance I witness myself being in the moment as opposed to the past and future. I do what I can in this second, a fresh creative time to explore and express what's inside. You don't have to worry about what people think about you. Your mission is to live the rest of your life as fully, genuinely and courageously as you can.
When I think back on my youth I can honestly say I worried about the most absurd things mostly related to my looks and the need for the world to validate me. Yes, I was going out to conquer the world so that I would be important. I wore high heels, short skirts, tight pants and created drama wherever I went. I can honestly say I'm glad those days are gone. This is the time to be who we truly are, shed ourselves of all the outward pressures and expectations that so absorb the young, and become the women who no longer care what people think. It's time to show up and be seen, our next act, not a dress rehearsal.

Over time, people of both genders begin to experience hair thinning or even loss. In order to combat this, it is necessary to understand how to get thicker hair utilizing a variety of means. The more ways that you approach the issue, the healthier your hair will become. Read over these suggestions and begin implementing them in your life, starting today.
Your hair goes through three different phases of growth. The first is the anagen cycle, followed by the catagen and, finally, the telogen. The vast majority of your hair is usually in the growth phase, anagen. Only about one percent are in the catagen, an intermediate resting phase before the final resting cycle. If for some reason your hair is cycling through more rapidly, you will see an increase in hair loss.
You need to make an appointment with your primary care physician and explain your symptoms. It may be related to your thyroid or childbearing issues. By running tests on the likely causes, your doctor should be able to eliminate certain possibilities and help you to manage your symptoms.
Another helpful measure in order to attain thicker hair is massage. This will stimulate blood circulation to your hair follicles, increasing their effectiveness. At least once a day, make an appointment with yourself for a five to ten minute head massage. Twice a week, do it after massaging a tablespoon of coconut oil into your scalp.
You may want to consider using a laser light comb that has recently gained approval by the FDA. It utilizes laser energy to revitalize the hair follicles. It will usually take between one and four months for results to appear. So with this method, be prepared to be patient, but the results will be worth it.
It is also important to look at your diet. If you rely on a great deal of processed foods, you are compromising your health, including that of your hair. Vitamin and mineral deficiencies frequently result in problems with hair and nails. You need to make certain that you get enough folic acid, which is found in soy and wheat. Incorporate Vitamin C into your diet to aid in keratin production. You can find it in tomatoes and citrus fruits.
Spinach is a nutritional powerhouse that can provide you with Vitamin A that is essential to good scalp health. You should also consider taking a multivitamin each day to make certain that you have adequately compensated for any nutrients you may have missed in a given day.
Use cleansing and styling products that are designed to volumize your hair. They contain ingredients that will attract moisture to your hair. This will make it look and feel fuller. By using a combination of items, you should obtain maximum results.
If you have been wondering how to get thicker hair, this article has some great places to begin. Start out with one suggestion at a time or tackle your thinning hair from several directions. You can have thicker hair if you are willing to apply these solutions.
The facts I have presented here about putting an end to a thin scalp are reliable and very helpful. If you want to be well informed on the matter, check out our site at: - HaiRestore
