Fitness and beauty can be one and the same. Being fit and healthy will automatically make you look better. A healthy inside creates a healthy outside. Fitness through exercise can help you to maintain a healthy body weight and improve muscle tone.

Our looks reflect the sum total of who we are and how we live, and the best we can do in life is to make the best of what nature has given is, without excuse, apology, or pretense.

If we try to live otherwise, we find ourselves acting on a stage with other actors and actresses--great pretenders without real friends, without real lovers, without real relationships. While we realize that there is such a thing as "natural beauty," which  is beyond all standards of culture and history in some sense, there are also "relative" standards of beauty.

We all know about fads, styles, and adornments that are "in" one season and "out" the next. This includes cosmetics, hair styles, clothing, and even body weight and size.

These standards may vary from country to country, year to year, or even
among different age groups in the same country and year. For example,
full figures are considered the ideal in some historical periods, but slender figures are valued now--at least in Western countries.

The point is that cultural standards change--and we may choose to follow or ignore them--because the cultivation of natural beauty is not dependent upon fads.

In order to get along harmoniously, whether at the level of dating,
courtship, or marriage, men and women have to get past physical looks
and into the more important qualities that make up human relationships,
such as kindness, friendship, and areas of mutual interest.

There is such a thing as a beautiful personality. There can be beauty
in the way a person thinks. An attitude or smile can be beautiful. Love is certainly beautiful, and all of life is beautiful when we are in love.

A person is truly beautiful when he or she is healthy. Any disease or illness affects all parts of the body, sometimes for many years before the symptoms are manifested. If the body and mind are not healthy, then a person cannot feel or be truly attractive.

Good health brings a glow to the skin, a ring to the voice, a twinkle
to the eye, and a spring to the step that no beauty school can teach.

Getting older doesn't necessarily cause age spots.  Too much exposure to the ultraviolet rays of the sun is more likely to cause these unattractive blotches, than maturity.  This is why age spots are also called sun spots. Other factors that make you more susceptible to age spots (no matter what your age is) are smoking, a diet high in refined sugars and fats, a lack of vitamins, and over consumption of poor quality saturated oils. Age spots occur when our skin produces too much lipofuscin. Lipofuscinis is a dark substance that colors our skin pigment. Unsightly age spots can begin appearing as early as the late twenties but are most common after the age 55 (thus the name.)

Age spots are also known as liver spots. Other nicknames for age spots are brown spots, lentigo and sun spots. The name sun spot nickname of course comes from the fact that the skin darkens as the result of too much frolicking outside in the summer.

As is the case with most skin conditions age spots are much simpler to prevent than to cure. Your diet has a lot to do with reducing your chances of developing this unsightly condition. Eating a diet rich in orange vegetables (carrot and yams) and green leafy vegetables (collard greens and watercress) may help reduce your chances of developing these spots as you age.  These foods are rich in antioxidants that help fight off damaging free radicals that are created as the result of too much exposure to the sun. They are also foods that are rich in Vitamin A and carotene, which also helps keep your skin in tiptop condition and more resistant to ultraviolet rays.

If you already have already developed age spots the good news is that there are some ways to diminish the way they look. There are several products on the market today that can fade them so they are less noticeable.  The active ingredient in these over the counter products that is a chemical called hydroquinone. Hydroquinone is a mild bleaching agent that helps lighten the appearance of all kinds of dark skin discolorations including age spots, scars and freckles.  Some prescription versions of this scream also contain topical vitamin A, which can also help fade the look of obnoxious age spots.

If your age spots are particularly unattractive or forming in an undesirable place where they are too obvious (such as on the face) there are some slightly more invasive ways to cosmetically treat the problem. One of the most popular cosmetic treatments for age spots is a chemical peel. These peels contain anywhere from 70% to 80 % glycolic acid and remove layers of skin to reduce the appearance of the spots.

Yet another option is laser resurfacing. In this procedure the age spots are literally burned away using a sophisticated, targeted laser. However this treatment only works well on very white skin with very dark age spots. This is because laser treatments need a contrast of colors (black on white) to do their job well. Darker age spots on dark skin do not respond well at all to these treatments. If the age spot is lighter, purple or an odd color laser resurfacing may also not succeed in removing it. Black or dark brown age spots on fair skin respond the best to this treatment.

Although most age spots are harmless blotches, the early stages of skin cancer can masquerade as innocent looking dark spots. Your physician or a dermatologist should check any spot that enlarges, thickens, changes color, itches or bleeds. Irregularly shaped dark spots that change in color or increase in size could be the early warning sign of serious skin cancers.

One cost effective and natural way to reduce age spots is to simply keep out of the sun and wear long sleeved shirts. You should always take precautions to protect all of your exposed skin if you know you are going to be in a place where there is likely to be a lot of ultraviolet light.  Make sure that you always wear sunscreen when you are out during a sunny day.  Limiting your intake of alcohol can also discourage a propensity towards developing the unattractive skin discolorations.

Hair is one of the most important things about you. It is the first thing other people pay attention to. Even your image depends on your hairstyle and healthy look of your hair. Your hair is also the first to response to any health problems. That’s why you should reply to the hair problems at hand as quickly as possible. When you lack time for yourself, it is clearly obvious. However, if you treat your hair with care, it pays you back constantly by attracting attention.

So, if you want to impress, attract, or sedu someone, first thing you should do is to ensure that your hair is in the best condition possible. Sedu hairstyle depends on such things as clean and healthy hair, proper hair color, neat and suitable hairstyle.

Some of us usually miss one or even two of these stages; hence the result leaves much to be desired. But the good news is that you can fix any mistake and solve any problem as long as you have decided to do it.

Here are some smart tips that you can easily apply to make your hair seductive. I personally selected them among the top pieces of advice as the best suitable for self application.

Tip #1  Keep you hair clean

Cleanness of hair is vital for the sedu image because wearing neat and accurate hair you show your style and chic. Have you ever seen a stylish person with filthy hair? Of course, no. Since chic is a sign of personal care and a symbol of self-respect. So, to achieve a stylish and smart image, stick to the following points.

• First thing is to decide on the type of your hair. It means to get to know whether you have dry, normal, greasy, or mixed, namely dry tips and greasy roots, type of hair.

• Next thing is to choose the most suitable shampoo for your hair, and to wash it with frequency, which suits you the best. I advice to wash dry hair once a week, to look after normal hair twice a week, and to pay a very close attention to the greasy hair, which needs cleaning every day.

• Don’t forget about the conditioner. It is vital to keep your hair smooth. Try to have conditioner and shampoo of the same brand. The point is that the products of the same brand are made of the similar ingredients; hence in combination they will suit your type of hair perfectly, as they won’t contradict one another, or play funny experiments on your hair.

Now, that we have clean hair, we may think about the hair health.

Tip #2  Remember that the health is the key to success

If your hair is damaged by some misfortune or is simply in a poor condition of health, you need to pay more attention to its care. Remember that healthy hair can be very easily styled, and it never fails to be arranged in the way you want.

So, we proceed to the stage of health.

• First, you should remember to trim the hair tips every six weeks. There is no sedu image with the split ends. Moreover, split ends can’t be cured or revived. The only way to help your hair to be split-free is to cut those ends.

• Also if your hair is heavily damaged by coloring, blow-drying, or styling products, try to cut it short and regrow. New hair will grow healthy and smooth without any signs of previous damage.

• You can, of course, grow your hair artificially if you like, but mind that it is the same as styling products. Don’t overuse it. Moreover, artificial is always different from the natural, and the difference is not for good normally.

Tip #3 Reveal your secret passion and ability to seduce with new hair color

• Coloring is vitally important, when your sedu image lacks brightness. The result of the properly selected color is remarkable. You enlighten your face, show your inner flame and passion.

• Surely coloring with the chemical dyes may be harmful, but as long as you use special shampoos, conditioners, hair masks, and serums for the dyed hair the harm is minimal.

• There are masks and serums that create a film over every hair, thus protecting your fragile dyed hair from the outside damage, shampoos, and conditioners that revitalize the color and moisturize the roots and ends. Try to mix them, so that you have overall protection.

Only remember that producer should be one and the same for all the hair care products. If you choose to change your hair care products, you will need to change the whole set of products so that you do not harm your hair. So, choose carefully from the first time, because greedy men pay twice.

Tip #4  Correct drying and brushing lead to perfect styling

Drying and brushing are the preparatory steps to styling. After you wash and nourish your hair, you are ready to style it. So, be careful with drying and brushing in order not to spoil the general effect of your new Sedu hairstyle.

• First, don’t overuse blow dryer, it usually overdries your scalp and overheat your hair. When blowdrying use the coolest set possible, and try to air dry your hair at least once or twice a week.

• Don’t brush your hair, when it’s wet, because it causes serious damage. Use soft brushes made of natural materials for styling, and massage brushes to comb your hair before going to bed.

• I know some people believe that the less you brush your hair the better it is, but this approach is wrong. When you comb your hair, you straighten it, move natural grease from the roots to the ends, leaving your hair naturally moisturized. You also make sure that it is freeze free before applying styling products.

Tip #5  Finishing touch-ups for you Sedu hairstyle

Now that you have your hair clean, nourished, and dry, we can move on to the last stage in the process of creating Sedu hairstyle. It includes such points as straight hair and new haircut.

• Overall, blow or air drying and brushing are the finishing steps of styling hair image for most people. But if you want to have Sedu hairstyle you need to do several touch-ups.

• First, Sedu hairstyle is straight hair style. So, you can have straight hair harnessing such methods: natural straightness, chemical straightness, and heat straightness.

• The best option apart from natural straightness, of course, is the heat straightening. Today there are new technologies that will eliminate heat damage and improve the general condition of your hair leaving it straight, smooth, and healthy. Among these technologies is ceramic tourmaline technology, which moisturizes and ionizes your hair. For people who struggle with curls and waves, it is just the best option possible.

• Chemical straightening can be applied, but it is highly dangerous, not to mention the poor results when the hairdresser is unskilled, or the product is chosen badly.

• At the end, I would like to stress the importance of the suitable hairstyle. Sedu image doesn’t couple with mundane and casual hairstyle. Sedu hairstyle is tempting, ardent, and always seductive. There are actually several points in choosing hairstyle: face shape, individual preferences, and favorite celebrity image.

• Your face shape can be round, square, oval, rectangular, or heart-like. So, when you’re choosing a haircut, mind that not all of them will suit your face shape.

• By individual preferences I mean couple of hairstyles you prefer, or hair length you would like to have. When speaking to your hairdresser about your preferences, you should also take into consideration your face shape for the best result.

• And the last point is favorite celebrity image. The procedure is the following: you choose several pictures of your favorite celebrity, and go to your hairdresser. Then together you choose the most suitable hairstyle that will be both your favorite celebrity sedu image and your own sedu image.

So, I believe that now you will be able to create your own Sedu hairstyle that will reveal your inner self, and discover passionate and tempting features of your own character. Remember that Sedu hairstyle is not only external look, but something you live with. Believe that you are Sedu, and be Sedu.

With ageing, skin also changes. The changes in skin are both intrinsic and extrinsic. Intrinsic changes are those that appear with ageing of body. Extrinsic changes are those that occur because of external factors such as sun, smoking, gravity and bad skin care. We cannot stop any intrinsic change because that is programmed in our body, but we can surely change habits and reduce changes due to extrinsic factors.

Let us look at the changes in skin with ageing. As you know skin has three layers- Epidermis (Outermost layer), Dermis (Middle layer) and subcutaneous layer that is below the dermis. As we age, the epidermis or the outermost layer begins to thin. The melanocytes (Pigment containing cells) decrease. Though melanocytes decrease in number they increase in size. This gives a pale look to the skin. Ageing changes due to sun such as liver spots or lentigo appear. They are also called age spots. The blood vessels in the dermis begin to lose strength and easily lead to bruising and bleeding under the skin. The subcutaneous layer that gives fat padding to skin thins. This again increases the risk of skin injury. Both sweat glands and sebaceous glands become less active.

As we age, our skin loses its suppleness, texture and strength. With age spots and other pigmentation, the look is lost. With weakening of strength, it becomes easy for skin to suffer damage easily. Healing becomes very slow. The healing may be four times as slow in old age as compared to youth. Skin turns dry and our sense of touch heat etc. reduces considerably. Other growths such as skin tags, warts, mar the appearance further.
Wrinkles appear on skin at all the places. As the underlying fat in the subcutaneous layer is lost, hollowness appears on the cheeks and eye sockets. Jowls form because of gravity. The hair grays and turns white. Some people lose hair and some grow hair at unwanted places. The nails become thin and half moons on the nails disappear.

As with every part of our body skin ages and brings about changes that mar the look completely. Sun damage can accelerate the skin aging considerably and can also cause skin diseases such as skin cancers etc. regular care of skin is necessary along with protecting skin from the harm full rays of sun to maintain youthful look for a longer time.

If you feel that you sweat excessively, please consult your doctor and find out. There is no measurement of normal sweating. So each of us have to find out if we are sweating excessively, normally or very less. If excess perspiration is your problem, find out more about it below. Please note that excessive sweating may be of two types. In the first instance your body naturally sweats more and in the second instance, you sweat more because of some conditions and diseases. The first condition is called primary hyperhidrosis and the second one is called secondary hyperhidrosis. In primary hyperhidrosis excess sweating occurs mostly on hands, feet and armpits.

Common reasons for excess sweating-

Some foods and drinks can make you sweat excessively. Drinks that contain alcohol or caffeine may induce excess sweating. Similarly some spicy food may make some people sweat heavily.

Excessive sweating may also be due to hereditary reasons. Please find out if your parents also had this problem.

If you are on medication, find out from your doctor if they are causing excessive sweating. Some drugs induce heavy sweating.

Women going through menopause may get hot flashes and excess sweating. Similarly males who have low levels of male hormone testosterone may experience hot flashes.

Some diseases and conditions can produce profuse sweat. Heart attack, malarial fever, other fevers, thyroid condition, tuberculosis, some fevers, low blood sugars and other diseases may make you sweat excessively. You should consult your doctor about these conditions.

Please consult your doctor if you suddenly break into cold sweat. That may be emotional in origin or physical. Similarly if you find a sudden change in body odor, you should tell your doctor about that. You may suffer some problems if you sweat excessively compared to others. Your toenails may develop fungal infections. Athletes foot may be another problem, as may be jock itch. For primary hyperhidrosis many treatments are available that can control the sweat within acceptable limits. Keeping yourself clean and dry at all times is another way of maintaining good hygiene.

Perspiration is important for our health to keep the normal body temperature. Some of us suffer from excess perspiration, while some of us have very low perspiration or no perspiration.

Perspiration either excessive or very low both are bad. Excessive perspiration unless a disease causes it, is only a nuisance whereas decreased perspiration can be life threatening sometimes. In decreased perspiration the patient either perspires very little or does not perspire at all. Decreased perspiration may be because of-

Inherited Disease- Some children inherit a condition known as hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED), and are born without any sweat gland. This condition puts them at high risk that may be life threatening.

Some medications- some drugs interfere with the working of sweat glands. Especially some drugs used for mental disorders can cause this.

Disorder of autonomic neuropathy-   when some nerves that control the autonomic functions of the body are damaged, the sweat glands stop functioning normally.

Burns and infection- with some burns, the sweat glands are damaged  and some infections of sweat glands stop the normal functioning of sweat glands.
