Caring For Your Eyes

by Cecile Cinco

The skin around the eyes are very sensitive, as opposed to the other skin parts of your body. Tugging, warping, pulling the skin around your eyes will only make your look worse. Continue reading »

What Is Your Skin Care Regimen?

by Cecile Cinco

During my younger years, even up to now, I never had any skin care regimen except for bath soap and water as I bathe. I’ve tried Ponds for a short while but the regimen itself tires me and lessens the money in my wallet. Since I’m allergic to many things, I don’t wear makeup unless it is necessary.

How To Prevent Hair Loss

by Cecile Cinco

Hair loss comes early in life usually because of our own doing. Hair dyes, hairdryers and curling irons are the leading causes of hair loss for men and women. Hair coloring more than once within the 8-week period will make gravity stronger, causing hair fall. Braiding too tight stretches the hair is also a hair-fall contributor. Too much alcohol and tobacco not only causes hair to say goodbye to your scalp but dandruff is also caused. Illnesses and antibiotics weaken those grips to your hair follicles so as excessive shampooing and lack of sleep and off-time sleep. Also, avoid too much salt. Continue reading »

What is the statistics of adults having belly fat and those who do not? Among those who do, how many are men and how many are women? Between the two categories, it seems that more women are more concerned in reducing those love handles than men. Continue reading »

Planning On A Haircut

by Cecile Cinco

Since the time I had a haircut, it has lengthened to an uncomfortable length that when it is windy, my eyes suffer tiny spikes and my face itches from the same irritability due to those spikes. Before the last haircut, I had my hair long without scissors touching it for a year in preparation for a dance number last October. Continue reading »

by Cecile Cinco

It may be a question overlooked by most of us, automatically replying, “of course it’s very important!” Most do not realize, however, that what we do everyday contribute to the making or breaking of our health. Continue reading »

What’s Your Acne Solution?

by Cecile Cinco

When I go out to go shopping or for a ride from one place or another, I can’t help but notice that in a crowd of 20, there is one whose face is not sightly appealing. I’m not even talking about contour or shape but the skin itself.

Frankly, it has never been my problem. I don’t put on makeup so maybe it is a factor. Being allergic to so many allergens I am wary to put stuff on my face. I notice, though, when I eat chicken often, I get red and white polka dots bevelled on my skin like my face, back, chest and arms. Having asthma, I guess it is my dillema. No solution could give it a cure but to avoid the allergens. Continue reading »

What Is YOUR Fat Burner?

by Cecile Cinco

Everyone seems to want to be slimmer than what they are now. That includes me. Just a few minutes earlier, I went out to the subdivision’s office to make an errand. Just before 9am the sun is toooooo hot that even with an umbrella the heat penetrates. When I arrived back home to open the door, I accidentally hit the door with my arm and it was burning! Figuratively, of course. I perspired and almost had an asthma attack if not for the controlled breathing techniques I use. Continue reading »

My 10-Year Old Girl

by Cecile Cinco

About two weeks ago, my 10-year old daughter was bugging me while she was looking at herself on the mirror. She said, “Mama, look at my eyes! They’re puffed and hived!”

I said, “That’s nothing. It’s far away from your intestines!” I was Continue reading »

Purging Love Handles

by Cecile Cinco

Depending on how one looks at me, I can be called fat or slim. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder and either can be beauty for one what may be the opposite of the other. Advertisements that spoonfeed the viewing public seem to be successfully mesmerizing (the public) in generalizing a rule for what beauty is: slim figure without love handles. Continue reading »
