Cancer and Taking Care of your Skin
(ContentDesk) October 15, 2005 -- As we recognize Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a womens skin changes during radiation and chemotherapy. The usual products sting and make your skin redder.
Not not sure what to do&the good news skin problems are usually short term and easy to fix.
Something proactive to do, something to help you feel better.During this time of change, your skin needs
special attention.
First ask your doctor regarding the products, lotions, soaps, deodorants, sunscreen, cream, or perfume around the treatment area you can use.
If the areas are itchy or irritated, a light sprinkling of cornstarch help, but filmy skin products may hamper your treatment.Washing the skin on the face or treatment area, a mild soap like Dove may be used.
Wash using only warm water and use your hands, this is gentler.
Gently pat dry with a soft cotton towel.
You should not scrub, scratch or shave treated skin. Soak a soft, fluffy cotton ball with non-alcohol toner and gently go over your face.
Seeing a trend?
Everything is done gently to cause little irritation to already sensitive skin.Ask your doctor what UVA/UVB sunscreen to buy.
Sunscreen with an SPF 15 is a good general number.
After applying, wait a few minutes until the sunscreen is totally absorbed (which many of us do not do)before applying any moisturizer.
Use very small amounts of moisturizer, dot on face and gently pat into skin. Oily skin may become dry or flaky during your chemotherapy, consider using moisturizer several times daily to lessen the impact, please check with your doctor first.This is important; wash your hands before applying anything to the treatment area.
Everyone knows nasty bacteria are on our hands and you do not want to transfer that to your skin.
It may cause an infection. Tightly close the tops of your jars so airborne bacteria and germs remain out of your skin care. If possible, try to sleep on your back with your head elevated.
This reduces morning puffiness.
Purchase a good pillow that feels good on your neck, it will be worth it.Do not smoke, need anyone say more?If you have questions -- do not hesitate to ask your heath care provider.
Remember they work for you and are experts in their fields.?????????????????????Cyndi KatelFive Star Nightswww.fivestarnights.come-mail protected from spam bots??????????????????????

Wholesale Perfume
For most people, buying a perfume means visiting their favorite department store and picking up their choice of perfumes over the counter.
Few people are aware that it is possible to get perfumes at wholesale rates. To purchase goods from a real wholesaler means that you need to have a "Certificate Of Resale," generally available from your State Department of Revenue; it can cost anywhere between five to twenty dollars. Some states do not require that you have this kind of certification.
A proper wholesaler is typically next in line of distribution to the manufacturer. Wholesalers buy in large quantities and are therefore able to pass on their savings.
Buying from a wholesaler may mean that you have to purchase stock of a minimum purchase price, which could be anything from $100 to $1,000.
To find out where you can pick up wholesale perfumes, you should check dedicated trade publications. Such trade information can also be found through directory...

How to Buy Perfume
Shopping for perfumes or personal fragrances can be a daunting task, particularly if it's for a friend or lover. Obviously online at Myshopping.com.au you cannot compare the actual scent of different fragrances. But, once you have a fairly good idea of what you are looking for, you can compare the different offerings from different brands and vendors very easily. So, how do you know what you are looking for? The following simple steps will narrow the search down somewhat.
Fragrance & PerfumeThe fragrance must suit the personality
The essential oils of a perfume react differently with each different person. Some perfumes are more suited to some personalities than others, and some perfumes are gregarious, others are more reserved.
Your choice needs to suit the wearer's attitude as well as demeanour, as well as reflect the status of your relationship with the wearer. For example, you wouldn't buy the same fragrance for your mother as you would for a...

Revivin' From Revivals
Remember the revivals they used to have around these parts back when we were growing up? I sure do. Back in those days, most churches had at least one revival each summer, usually in either July or August. We're not talking just one night revivals, either - some of these revivals ran for at least three or four nights, and sometimes even longer. The preachers who did these revivals were typically from some of the other churches in the area. Doing these services gave them a chance to preach at other locations, and it also gave them the chance to experience new congregations.
Sometimes churches would be so impressed with a revival preacher that they'd ultimately ask him to become their pastor. I think, for the preachers, revivals were a great thing. For those of us in the congregation, revivals were a mixed blessing. First, they had them for at least three or four consecutive nights, and you had to attend each night. That meant three or more consecutive nights of church services...

Is Your Water Safe To Drink?
When people talk about nutrition, they usually overlook a very important nutrient necessary for good health.
WATER!
That's mostly because we've taken both for granted for thousands of years. Water has been mostly good for us up until only a relatively few years ago. That's all changed now, and we definitely need to think again, as it's getting much worse, almost daily.
It's usually recommended that we each drink 64 ounces of water per day - that's 8 each 8 ounce glasses (full) every day.
Actually, the better recommendation for good health is 1 gallon per 50 pounds of body weight.
Few of us ever get even those minimum 8 glasses per day.
According to one study, about 4/5ths of all adults do NOT get even this minimum.
The majority of adults in the US are borderline dehydrated.
Did you know that many deaths in nursing homes are actually caused by dehydration?
Dehydration of the frontal lobes is a major...
