light brown hurts miller, colonel, and ashton kutcher. do it. or rather don't do it. skipping a daily shower is the latest hollywood trend. julia roberts and jennifer aniston apparently only take one a week for the sake of their skin and environment. how many days could these germans hold out? to like 2 days? one is love is when i can't smile myself anymore and pest one or 2 days max. if necessary, 3 days. is it healthier to go lights on the soap and order that depends on your skin type, says dermatologist, oldish, kuna dry skin in particular can benefit by you them for when we wash in particular with soap or shower jail. the lippard barrier the skins layer of natural fats is removed, so that can really dried out is all the skin surfaces no longer intact, and the skin becomes much more irritated, showering less uses less water,
4:37 am
so it's good for the environment to convinced body odor is dreadful, no glasses, it's better for years again if you don't constantly use open water but personally i can't imagine it of issue cuts been at 1st and the so makes you feel better to get under the shower and switch off to sheldon. showering less often doesn't mean more body odor. just the quick rinse can do the trick. walk interested body odor primarily arises in our arm pits or groin. if firstly to skin services meet there, so the sweat can't evaporate. it remains there for longer, and bacteria then goes to work on the sweat producing odors in those regions, the armpits, in general areas, we have different sweat glands. that produce, went with a stronger, smelled psion. and we don't have to banish cleansing products, but it's worth checking, the ph of your shower joe. this did it is usually listed on the packaging, or you'll often see the ph there and it should be 7 or below you, for example,

neutral or slightly acidic. again, so this hollywood trend could soon start washing over germany. is audiologists have discovered that even now stone age ancestors enjoyed a plant based pampering, but the cradle of cosmetics is ancient egypt, where women and men used ointments, creams and makeup made from honey wax. flower, oils, minerals, tinctures, milk, and animal bile, and plans. they also mummified courses using natural preservatives, a way of generating their dead. in the 1950s cosmetics, as we know them became a booming business. they were based on petroleum, alcohol and chemicals, but they were also expensive, and many women had their own skin care solutions. and today, we can probably learn
4:39 am
a thing or 2 from them. 19 fifties style beauty was achieved without the help of high electronic acid, expensive anti cellulite lotions and peeling creams. unlike today, only very simple cosmetics and beauty products were available. ah, ah, back then women conjured up their flawless images with the help of time honored tricks. but which of them really work dry brushing? perhaps in the battle against cellulite and flaky skin. women brush their legs as often as possible. talking 1st, dr. brushing is very effective for the circulation and the skin becomes softer and finer, even after the 1st round. it stimulates cell renewal. dead skin cells are removed so the skin can breathe. i optimum can have used a natural bristle brush, not
4:40 am
a plastic one, and then apply moisturizer instead of peeling creams. women of the 50s used coffee grounds. massaging skin with these brown clumps is supposed to remove dead skin cells without your station isn't recommended. coffee is not, is coffee grounds are very well suited to stimulating blood circulation, even in the skin, thanks to their caffeine content. the powder will finally peel the skin, gently removing dead cells that gives it a regenerative effect. and it also works for cellulite being tenderly coffee grounds are best combined with olive oil to prevent the skin from drying out. there was also a secret weapon against blemishes, tooth paste was believed to dry our acne and soothe inflammation. so almost high in grandmas day, it may have been all right,
4:41 am
to apply tooth paste to acne. it would have dried it out, but modern tooth paste contains many extra ingredients like menthol and fluoride, which irritate the skin. another remedy for itchy painful skin and their bag of tricks, black tea back then, many believed that a black t compress would alleviate itchy or irritated skin. and foolish of liked he is something i still recommend to my patience. it works on inflamed patches of skin and irritated exema. also inflamed mosquito bites it has a soothing effect, and the tannin and black tea dries out skin lesion. this is to hawkins, you on ocean oz. next comes the relaxing part even to day. cucumber is seen as a true miracle worker. nurses in asia, we own insiders tip cucumbers are packed with vitamins a, b, and c, and also contain lots of minerals and don't underestimate the high water content. cucumbers can be an inexpensive alternative to anti aging creams. simple,
4:42 am
yet incredibly effective. no wonder the women of the 1950s looked so gorgeous. the global beauty industry is worth about $300000000000.00 a year. that's about as much as mexico's federal budget. think about all the products we apparently can't live without nail polish. hes spray head die soap bubble, both deodorant lipstick, shaving foam. i line a perfume mascara foundation, thought we spend most of our money on skin care. how can we possibly use up all the products we buy before they best before date? how many cushions and lotions do you have hanging around in your bathroom and how long do they actually keep? we went to find out where the old cosmetic products might even pose
4:43 am
a house problem. so we're going to visit monica, a saw he and sally the 3 women have quite a collection of cosmetics in their bathrooms. we take a closer look. sometimes it's obvious what sold other containers come marked with a range of expiry. cymbals 12 m means it's best to use it for up to 12 months off to opening other products have a specific best before date printed on them. the women soon find a few items that have had their day of shopping. i found a some lotion that i have had for quite a long time. didn't know how long, maybe 4 or 5 years since my hear from ya lunch a. so he is an opera singer and was makeup on the stage. she also find something that's pretty old. as a javier is
4:44 am
a i found this cleansing moose soon, then. it's been lying in her basket for years, but it's only meant to keep for 6 months. sally likes natural cosmetics. she also find something that has been gathering dust chapter. i haven't touched it for years . have talked to ya ha, is a dermatologist and reisa, she knows how to tell when cosmetics of past, their prime no matter how old dale is, is not to his guns. we think it's vital that you'd use your common sense man, you shouldn't use anything where the ingredients have separated turned a strange color or smell odd. or if you already know something is very old to me to support when cosmetic products expire, than their ingredients change. they can decompose, become rancid. the molecules can change, for example, allergens can be produced that make your skin ich, or unwanted organisms like bacteria or mold can get into them leading to skin infections from when it comes to skin care products,
4:45 am
you shouldn't just look at the expiry date. how you store an item also plays a big role. if we keep food in the fridge, it stays fresh for longer. is that true for all lotions and potions to fans in this me? by, as with food, you should treat your skin care products well, store them in a dry and dark place because light can break down their basic ingredients. don't keep them where it's too warm lock and b hygenic. use a small spatula or a cotton swab, not your fingers, or buy something in a dispenser vendor cofer. when it comes to natural cosmetics, storage is especially important. they don't contain synthetic preservatives such as parables, so formaldehyde. but that doesn't automatically make them safer. one that they come on, you can have just as strong an allergic reaction to fresh natural cosmetics as you can to conventional ones. because they also contain substances that your skin might
4:46 am
not like such as fragrances and essential oils at natural acids, which are often used to prolong these products. shelf life come down to adler. advice is caution with one product in particular, thus, and this is actually very skin friendly and much used sunscreen, which works well. it contains a chemical u, v filter called octo cry lien, which is in many different products. and it was suspected that it might have a hormonal influence on our bodies. and now studies have discovered that this substance breaks down into benzo for known within a year, or that's a very harmful and band sunscreen, which doesn't just destroy corals. it can also cause cancer inside. you should definitely dispose of any sun cream containing it at the end of the season. song. interesting information for all 3 flatmates. ah,
4:47 am
monica in particular, aims to check expiry dates small carefully. wanted in a spec, a song escapes, i mean if it causes cancer, then of course i wouldn't use it any more than the physical if it smells strange, then i wouldn't use it anymore either. but yes, i think i will pay a bit more attention. of course, there are few 5 that doesn't because me take that off of fed. i wasn't aware of natural cosmetics. don't last as long as conventional one thought. stephan. it's kind of that won't stop me from buying them. i'll just have to use them up a bit more quickly. nelfa pow hm. own skin care products can cause irritation and rushes in the case of some lotion, it might even cause cancer. we recommend you store your skin care products in a cool, dont place and labeled them with the dates you opened them. remember, if in doubt, throw them out with base creams that have gone funky, don't do the skin any good, but a lack of sleep can also take its toll,
4:48 am
resulting and dark rings around the eyes, wrinkles and red, and puffy, eyelids. and unfortunately, that affects our overall appearance. this reason why it's called beauty sleep. at night, our skin regenerates, rest helps boost metabolic processes and oxygen levels, and improves circulation. the skin also makes new college, and when we sleep, that improves elasticity. the whole my melatonin protects against free radicals. so a good night sleep can ward off the signs of aging, and you can give your skin an extra boost with a right breakfast. mm. a healthy diet can boost the health of our skin. here are 3 foods with scientifically proven skin health benefits. tomatoes, tomatoes contain
4:49 am
a red pigment called like a pain. it's a plant nutrient with anti oxidant properties that's also good for our skin. so what are antioxidants exactly? when skin is exposed to sunlight or u. v. light, it generates free radicals, highly reactive molecules that can damage the skin, and that can lead to premature skin aging or even cancer. but anti oxidants, like, like o pain can neutralize free radicals. that's why our loves tomatoes, sunflower, seed, oil. it might seem unassuming, but this oil is liquid gold for our skin, sunflower seed oil is rich and vitamin e, which is also a powerful antioxidant studies, have shown that regular consumption of sunflower seed. oil also has anti inflammatory effects. and vitamin e also helps our body produce college in the protein that makes her skin firm and
4:50 am
supple sardines. our skin protects us from dirt, bacteria and toxins. and the skin's major line of defense is the natural lippitt barrier, made up of dead skin cells and the skins natural fats. fish such as sardines, help protect the skins livid barrier, and fish oiled are high. and omega 3 fatty acids which studies have shown are beneficial to skin health and appearance. one last tip. although tomatoes, sunflower, oil, and sardines are great skin boosters, they should be part of a healthy and varied diet. blue the right food can do just as much for your skin as the right face screen. using too much product or one that's not right for you can cause reddening blemishes and itching. make sure you know what you're
4:51 am
putting on your skin, but sometimes the cause isn't in the bathroom cabinet, but in the closet. so it's a pretty chilly day. some a warm and cozy scarf can come in handy. but do you know this feeling to be just a few moments after you've put it on your next steps to which why is that? we asked dr. cornelia vague and from you as university hospital, she immediately had an answer for us. the scarf is 100 percent wool. viola is a pinched off. wall is relatively rough on the skin, depending where it comes from, of course, and how it's been treated, fitting the fibers overlap, and are usually open on the exterior sheeps. well, in particular, i am by half while a hot mind us, rough wool fibers, all the culprits we can see them best under the microscope. dr. vigour and looks at
4:52 am
the scarf magnified by $200.00. ze no the fall and the year you don't see the fibers are not completely smooth. they have raised bits and they are about to scaly . this is what produces this ha feeling. the fibers overlap that they don't my smoothly next to one another. there is this odd open egg. i'll soon pop off in the canton. yeah. up and on. direct contact with will can create problems even for people with healthy skin. so what happens when someone with a skin disease, whereas a woodland scoff dep hasn't? what i am, the one that would simply make the patient feel extremely itchy because of the uppermost skin barrier layers would be opened up by the scratching on the wall. and the patient would make it worse by scratching with their fingers happening to missouri, vomiting thing on the now cause for such cases, clothing can be made out of special fabrics that incorporates silva o zinc fibers. they are in fact, cornelia vegans fields of research. she's researching whether the special fabric
4:53 am
destroys the micro organisms that live on every one's skin and trigger it ching to simulate the situation as realistically as possible. she dissolves the fabric samples in artificial sweat d mclaughlin essman d. she had listened for to the micro organisms that are harmful for the patient or the person are damaged by the zinc or silver ions to the extent that they die off, he hadn't defeated death them to make them extra skin friendly. these fabrics are also very finely woven under the microscope. you can see a clear difference to sheeps. well, yonder deposit window here we have the bundled fibers that are twisted together and then woven normally doesn't guns. that creates a very smooth surface. in general, the processing of the fiber makes a big difference to how it feels are done filling up dishes for food. and that's
4:54 am
also important for people without skin problems. natural materials like so. co cotton or manmade fibers like acrylic are usually easy on your skin, depending on how they're woven or tried kashmir, though that might give you hives simply because of the price. but don't worry, i'll weekly work. i'll tip is completely free. yes. what aurelia has got for us this time with hi and welcome to day. we don't use a bike. we use our mate, we do a lovely re ation of playing. so let's take a med and let's go go to your meds. and thursday, i show you the plague for to playing you are on your 4 arms. you have straight legs, and then you try to stay in one leg. this exercise is perfect for your mid line.
