Anyone know of aany cream to put aaround outside of nostrils where dry flaky skin is?

I am looking for a cream to moisturize and keep the dry skin from becoming too dry, I can do it nightly if it takes that much effort.

Anyone know of aany cream to put aaround outside of nostrils where dry flaky skin is?
Not a good option for the daytime, but you could try using Vaseline at night. I've had to do this before and it worked pretty well. You might want to put an old pillowcase on your bed if you do try this.





The other thing that I do in the wintertime is use a vaporizer in my bedroom at night in order to keep the humidity level up and minimize dry skin.
Reply:It may sound nuts, but i have found chapstick is wonderful for your nose. It's on chapped/sore lips, why not your nose too?
Reply:If you can get some Rosehip Oil it works great for dry skin. I use it nightly on my whole face. Go to your search bar and type in "benefits of rosehip oil" and read about it. I ordered mine online. It wasn't to expensive and you use a very small amount so it does last a long time.
Reply:take a Vitamin E capsule .Get a safety pin or needle and puncture a whole in it Squeeze it to your finger tip and apply to the affected area a couple times a day It is thick and healing.Alternatively or if it is raw, and you are not allergic, use Neosporin ointment also to the area a couple times a day.
Reply:try melaleuca facial moisturising cream. i had recommended to a friend who is suffering from quite severe ezcema. She has reported fantastic results using it. it's not available off the shelves though as it is marketing thru direct sales. email me is you want more details

Facial cream for dry skin?
OIL OF OLAY
Reply:these high class creams will not work because they may be having chemicals in them that may be affecting your skin color or texture or structure.the best way (i am not joking) is to apply yogurt on your face.then leave it to dry for about an hour or two.when you come to India on a tour ask for ayurvedic medicines.India is the best in ayurvedic medicine and seriously you will be looking strikingly beautiful.
Reply:Kiehl's panthenol protein moisturizing face cream works really good. It is enriched with vitamins E and A and Beta Carotene. It works for normal to dry and dry skin types. My face get really dry during the winter and it is also very sensitive but Kiehl's is perfect. I put it on everynight before i go to bed and it works great.
Reply:Try Eucerin. You can buy it at any pharmacy. It should help with both the itch and dryness. They have a few formulations, you can pick the one you feel is best for you.





Another option if you really have severe dryness (more than even itch) is Aquaphor.





Based on what you described I would recommend Eucerin. In addition it is non-greasy and odorless.





As for the breakouts, you can couple this with a salicylic acid face wash (milder, more for prevention) or benzoyl peroxide acne medication (bit stronger, often for treatment).





Some moisturizers seem to cause more breakouts. I have not found this to be the case with Eucerin.

Best anti-aging cream for young skin ?

Im not sure when you are meant to start using anti aging cream but Ive heard some people start aging at 21?


Anyone know a good cream?

Best anti-aging cream for young skin ?
I am an esthetician and the number one thing that ages skin is over exposure to the sun. Some exposure to the sun is necessary and good, its the OVER exposure that can literally kill you and age you sooner than you would like. Just make sure you are protecting your skin with a sunblock, drinking lots of water (as does dehydration ages you too) and eating right and taking care of your skin. Getting facials helps too.
Reply:I would have to say Roc and it is always on offer lately which is great as it is quite expensive!
Reply:when you are 40 yiou can start to use anti-aging cream for the wrinkles your kids give iyou. Don't rush your life.
Reply:Get a good vitamin-E cream from the health food store. I use it for all sorts of things, including where skin has dried and cracked, for lubrication in sensitive areas, all sorts of things.
Reply:Use any old cream you like...if it smells good and feels good it is good (mind you that could go for a lot of things). Anyway, main thing is eat well, drink lots of water, and enjoy the way your face changes...that's what life is about!
Reply:sperm has loads of protein and chemicals in it that are really good for your skin. have fun!!!!!
Reply:I think when you're young, it's not necessary to use such products. Why not look after your skin in other ways? For example, ALWAYS take your make up off before going to bed. Also, do a face mask once a week as a treat. You could gently exfoliate your skin every week too. Get into the habit of cleansing, toning and moisturising every day.
Reply:the first thing to do is use sunscreen, always..the sun is 90% of aging, wrinkled skin!! i also recommen Oil of Olay, it is light ,inexpensive and works great...i am 57 and have skin 20yrs younger..i started using it at age 21
Reply:The best kind of cream for young skins, are any which have added sun factor. This will stop the skin ageing too quickly. Most ageing signs are caused by sun damage. you can buy the cheapest cream you can find so long as it has added sun protection
Reply:olay regenerist
Reply:Healthy skin starts from the inside out; take a skin and hair vitamin, get a good night sleep, drink plenty of water, and use a cream with retinol as the main active engredient.
Reply:Hi there try youth and firmness cream by Thalion. its a great cream to start and use at your age, you will feel the skin become firm and any fine lines disappear.
Reply:I'm young too (26) and don't believe there is a time too early to think about skin care, especially anti-aging formulas that maximize the health of your skin. I have had great luck with any Oil of Olay (Regenerist is nice) and Aveno (Radiant Skin w/SPF 15) products - fabulous! As a side note, Neutrogena's Radiance Boost eye cream works miraculously on puffiness and dark circles, and claims to help w/wrinkles. Think probably the most imp't thing would be to find what works with your skin type to balance a nice dewy complexion =) Mine is probably normal-combination (changing w/the seasons) and wear contacts... haven't had any problems! Good luck!
Reply:Hi! As an consultant for Arbonne International I will suggest that you don't really need an anti-aging skin care line until you are at least 30. Arbonne has a skin care line for younger skin called the Arbonne Intellegence. Suggested age is 16 - 30. Arbonne's products are all botanically based and pure and with the Intelligence Line will help prepare your skin for aging....when you do get into your 30's and 40's. If interested, shoot me back an e-mail and I'll lead you to my website and further information.
Reply:It's good to start young most people think they don't need a good moisturiser until they already have wrinkles. I'm 47 and I haven't got many wrinkles at all. A lot of it is down to genes, but don't smoke or get drunk too often, drink plenty of water, always take your make up of at night, never wash your face with soap (get a good cleansing cream) and any moisturisers are good at your age so don't pay a fortune, Nivea is cheap and excellent.

I want to know whether the aloe vera gel/cream for skin can be used on your hair as well?

when i was young we used to have an aloe vera plant.my relatives said that it would be great squeezed on the hair and i did that. it would be sticky so you have to rinse it off. but it really makes the hair smooth. so i guess the gel would be great too

What is the best cream out there for stretch marks/loose skin?

I have stretch marks on my tummy from pregnancy and loose skin also from rapid weight loss after baby. I have been searching the net for the best cream and there are so many! Any suggestions? Price isn't an issue.

What is the best cream out there for stretch marks/loose skin?
Depending on the severity and location of the stretch marks, exfoliation may be helpful. Removing layers of dead skin can help minimize the appearance of stretch marks. You can use oatmeal or baking soda to make your own. Be sure to apply plenty of moisturizer to keep the skin soft and hydrated after exfoliation. Cocoa Butter or oil is great for stretch marks!





If the stretch marks are more noticeable, you can also try some products with a lot of elastin and collagen-





There is a product called trilastin which is supposed to really good, you can look it up on the net.





Another one that has been highly rated is revitol, it is supposed to be the leading cream on the market.





I hope this helps!!!
Reply:Plastic surgery, I have stretch marks and no cream/lotion has helped, They do seem to get better as the years go by. The loose skin can be tightened by doing sit up. Tanning also helps minimize the look of stretch marks.

Cream for oil skin?

my face is oil skin type which has many pimples and spots

Cream for oil skin?
I use a wonderful cleanser called "Apricot Scrub" by St. Ives. Get the Medicated kind. It makes your skin squeaky clean, and it's a great exfoliator. Seriously. Try it. It's not expensive either, you can get it at the supermarket :-)
Reply:For Oily skin you would not want to use a cream. I would recommend using a gentle soap cleanser (minus salicylic acid- this is harsh and can cause flaking/peeling). Now as for the acne, a low grade benzoyl peroxide (%26lt;10%) should do the trick, it might take about 6 weeks to work, but it will eventually. As for short term, pimple treatment, use a gel (salicylic acid 2%, available Over the counter), this will dry them out and swelling/redness will be reduced within 2 days.





Oily skin should use a gel product to dry the skin.
Reply:I have cleared my acne with an all natural Aloe supplement, also changing my diet has decreased my naturally oily skin to now much less oily skin. It may be a problem with your digestive system or your hormones, both can be factors. It is unlikely that any cream or astringent will work as a cure, they all only work on the symptoms and may lead to drying the skin which your skin compensates for by making more oil. Believe me, I tried everything from over the counter to strong prescriptions but nothing worked for long and sometimes the side effects were much worse than the pimples. I take an internal mineral supplement that gives my body the tools it need to digest food and dispose of toxins in a healthy way. There are topical ointments and techniques too but they will only be a band-aid if you don't find the source of the problem. email me for more help.
Reply:Morning:


Use an astringent that doesn't contain any acne medicine to clean your skin. Apply Clean and Clear Oil Free Moisturizer with Salicylic Acid and during the day use Clear and Clear Oil Absorbing Sheets to control oil. Avoid using benzoyl peroxide during the day if you are going to be exposed to sunlight.





Night:


Clean skin with astringent and apply benzoyl peroxide, avoid eye area and lips.





You'll notice the difference in just one day. At least it works for me.

Is the anti-bacterial cream i've been using hurting my skin?

i've been using this anti-bacterial cream not meant for the face but i use it anyway...





i lay it on my face for about 20 mins then i wash it off and use a normal moisturizer and it SEEMS to be helping my skin...i hardly have any pimples ...but my skin seems a little elastic-y. is that a good thing or a bad thing?

Is the anti-bacterial cream i've been using hurting my skin?
good question-i'm not sure, but it makes sense that the lotion helps-on the other hand, they say u want to have a neutral skin pH, so it's not too acidic or basic, and if the harmful bacteria are stripped, followed by any healthy bacteria, it might be creating a little bit of a harsh environment, but then again, skin elasticity sounds like a good thing to me!!


honestly, idk but that's a good question
Reply:does the package say not to use it on your face? if it doesnt, then there is no reason not to. If you have any problems with itchiness or redness or flakiness on your face I would stop using it immediatly. But if it hasnt been doing anything so far, go for it. Also, I would stay out of tanning beds if you are using it, and put on sunscreen when you go outside and it is sunny.
Reply:Antibacterial soaps are notoriously harsh and drying [coming from a student nurse]. I would recommend something more delicate like unscented Dove or Cetaphil. Plus, leaving any soap on for 20 mins is extremely drying. If your soap has Triclosan, I'd recommend you ditch it because it has been shown that some microbes are becoming resistant to it.





What do you mean by elastic-y? Do mean that when you pinch it, it tents and takes a while to go down?
Reply:uhhhh...... DONT USE IT ON YOUR FACE!


elasticy?!?! uh no offense.........weirdly gross





stop using it before it becomes serious!

%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;I would go with the regular. But, if you really want the green/medicated, check the ingredients, if there's menthol, alcohol, salts, or any other drying agent, that will not help you.

Reply:Go with the Gold Bond Extra Strength in the green bottle. It has camphor and menthol in it which are extra soothing for dry skin. I've used it myself for dry skin and for mild rashes and it really works wonderfully.


The regular Gold Bond in the yellow bottle is great as an every day moisture lotion for normal to dry skin. I use this as a hand lotion mostly.

Can cold cream cause damage to your dry face skin if used every day? (facial, moisturizer)?

i have very, very dry/sensitive skin and i've been using pond's cold cream for the past several days which has been doing wonders but i was curious about any side effects (i.e. free-radical damage, excessive dryness afterwards, etc). i'm about to try just regular baby oil. also, i heard you can make your *own* cold cream so i plan on making some without borax/sodiumBorate. does anyone know where i can find beeswax in local retail stores? thank you.

Can cold cream cause damage to your dry face skin if used every day? (facial, moisturizer)?
Cold cream is perfectly safe for you. I have combo skin and experienced my first bout of severe dryness after using Noxzema. My mom gave me some of her generic cold cream. After only a few days uses, the dry skin healed, I had no breakouts, and I got compliments on my skin. I use it twice a day and go at least one day using organic high fat yougurt in the morning instead of cold cream. Be sure to gently wipe the cream off with a washcloth instead of just rinsing it.





As for making your own, it is not worth it. The simple, basic cold cream is time-tested. To make it yourself requires cost, experimentation, etc. Just go for convenience. The borate stuff is nothing to worry about.





Oh, and avoid baby oil. It's not even good for babies.
Reply:For daily use you should switch over to herbal products. Don't try experimenting your own cold cream. These companies do a lot of reseach and testing before launching a product. And remember you can't and should not experiment on your face. This is your biggest asset.

Does anyone know of any lotion/cream that helps clear spots or even skin tone?

I have some spots on my face, and I'm wondering if anyone knows (or knows of) a lotion or cream that would help clear them? I'm a dark skinned African American woman, and apart from these spots, seem to have very good skin. I don't have acne or eczema, and the spots are just marks leftover from picking at my face as a teenager. I'm currently using Neutrogena's 'Visibly Even' face wash and cream, which although it leaves my face feeling EXCEPTIONALLY smooth, hasn't really done much for evening out my skin tone. (Which was why I bought it)...





So does anyone have any suggestions? Again, my face is really, really smooth and soft... I'd just like my skin tone even... without the marks here and there. Preferably something that doesn't noticably lighten my skin complexion either... I'm quite dark. Thank you.

Does anyone know of any lotion/cream that helps clear spots or even skin tone?
You should try Ambi cream. It works wonders with little spots on the face! I'm African American as well, and I had these little spots underneath my chin from picking at my acne. I started washing my face every night with a cleanser, and using nothing but Ambi for my face. I have to tell you that the change has been remarkable. I didn't get lighter like I feared; only the spots did. Now, there're barely noticable!

I use the hope in a jar and when hope its not enough, those are the best creams. You might want to use " hope is not enough" that is what the cream is called. Let me know if you like it or have any results. You can also buy in sephora.com or any sephora near you
Reply:My wife has used two diiferent ones. One is Skin cleaner by _ _ _ _ _ and it is a milk skin cleaner. I left the brand name out because there is more than one. Also she uses at night a cucumber lotion that helps eliminate the spots on her face. It takes time to fade them. My wifes were from an alegric reaction to something and she has used these products to keep them almost invisible. I hope you can find these products near you. Check in companies such as AVon, Stanley, Ponds, for these products.

Cream for face and the remaining body skin..?

Hi,


Do pple usually use same or diff cream for face and for the rest of the body skin?? Why ?? Both in winter as well as in summer??


Thanks

Cream for face and the remaining body skin..?
Usually body lotion is a bit more oily then face cream-depending on what kind of skin you have you would generally use a water based cream on your face I prefer the Body Shop's seaweed matifying day cream all year round because it has sunscreen and provides enough mostiure in the winter. As for body lotion something 'oil-based' works best for both summer and winter, of course in the winter a body butter like coco butter is a miracle worker but for the summer try something a little lighter like Nivea or Oil of Olay.





I hope this helps!!!

Which is the good cream for skin care?

For an everyday type moisturizer.....try the Aveeno line. My boss (a plastic surgeon) recommends that brand to patients.





For blotchy, fine-lined skin.......try theKinerase line. I've been using it twice a day for the past 4 years and get compliments on my skin tone frequently.

IS there a cream or skin product that can make the bump on the nose not so distinct?

many of you will have a nose where there is a bump giving it a benty shape of the overall nose...what can you do against it..for instance i also broke my nose and altho its healed, a tiny bit of the bone is actually sticking out..

IS there a cream or skin product that can make the bump on the nose not so distinct?

Who can prescribe for me a cream or medication that can make my skin lighter, brighter, smooth and soft?

I have uneven skin tone in my body and its as if my skin is wrinkling does anyone know a cream that can take care of that.

Who can prescribe for me a cream or medication that can make my skin lighter, brighter, smooth and soft?
Here are a few ideas for skin-lightening creams you can brew up at home.





Bleaching Cream:


1/4 cup mineral oil


1 tablespoon beeswax or paraffin


1/4 cup lemon juice


1/2 cup whey


1)Use a double boiler large enough to hold three small glass bowls with the separate ingredients, or use two double boilers. First, place the mineral oil and paraffin in bowls and then in the top of the double boiler. Watch until the wax is nearly melted and then add a bowl with the lemon juice and whey.


2)Pour the melted wax into a glass bowl and stir in the warm oil, mixing vigorously. Keep mixing and add the warm lemon juice and whey. Cover and refridgerate for 2 hours until cream is set.


3)Remove the mixture from the refridgerator and whip with an electric hand mixer or wire wisk until light and creamy. You may add a drop of your favorite perfume at this step, if desired.


4)Store cream in the refridgerator for up to 6 weeks.





Lemon Lightening Pack:


2 tablespoons fuller's earth


1 teaspoon lemon juice


1 teaspoon buttermilk


mix all ingredients into a paste and apply to the skin in light upward strokes. Sit back with your feet up for 20 minutes; rinse with the SKIN BLEACHING TONIC


Skin Bleaching Tonic:


1 lemon, sliced


1 cup white wine


1 tablespoon sugar


1)place lemon slices and wine in an enamel or glass pot and bring to a boil over medium heat. Boil for one minute. Remove from heat, stir in the sugar, and let cool


2)Strain the mixture and store in a tightly capped bottle.

Cream or Lotion which one mositerises the skin more?

I just want to no becouse there is a skin care line that I use and I want to no if I should get the cream or lotion.Which one would make my skin supple .

Cream or Lotion which one mositerises the skin more?
I read an article in men's health and it suggested cream to better moisturize your skin
Reply:If you are looking for supple skin, you need to make sure that you are following the directions on the products that yo uare using. If the lotion is a light moisturizer...you could try just a litlte of that in the morning(one iwth spf 15 is good) and at night try washing your face and using the cream. Creams are heavier and usually take less when you use it because they go farther!
Reply:Cream(sometimes) beacuse it is more thinker, but i use lotion for the body and cream for face
Reply:cream moisturizes more but be careful it doesn't clog your pores.

no, it's stops the effected area from itching! It's an anti-itch cream used for dry skin, chick pox, poison ivy, and bug bites!

Reply:Any moisturizer with DMAE will do it. Look at the ingredients list. You can also get the DMAE extract at stores like Central Market or Whole Food Stores.





Also, Vit E 5000 UI is a good option. All you need is 1 drop and apply directly on the zone, immediately after shower.





Both DMAE and/or Vit E are best utilized if applied immediately after shower, since the pores are open and it's easier to penetrate.

Reply:olay regenerist and also olay definity! a little pricy but good stuff.
Reply:I read about this last week, a national consumer magizine reviewed creams, their determination was you cant beat Olay Regenerist.
Reply:The all time best thing for your skin is to exfoliate. It can prevent wrinkles and even makes the ones she alreadys has a little less visible. St. Ives apricot scrub is the best. It may feel a little harsh %26amp; scratchy to her, but that means it's working. It really gets down in the pores and exfoliates that top layer of skin off. You are left with skin that is baby soft %26amp; smooth and the pores are smaller too. After she exfoliates, apply a good moisturizer with an SPF. It depends on your mom's type of skin. If she's combo/sensitive/oily/dry? Buy a moisturizer according to that. There are lots to choose from on the market. Dove soap is the best thing to wash her face with. When she showers, she can use another soap for her body if she wishes, but she should always use the Dove on her face. It's the best soap out there, so perhaps she should try one of their moisturizers/creams for her wrinkles as well.


If the apricot scrub isn't for her, then I hear that the best wrinkle cream is alpha hydroxy. This cream exfoliates your skin as well.

Numing cream for skin ? so that i can do a tattoo in a very senitive spot on the body?

You cannot use numbing cream when getting a tattoo or piercing as it will make the skin tougher. I suggest getting freezing from the tattoo parlour. They can not do it until after the initial outline has been done but a little more pain is worth not ruining your tattoo.

You shouldn't be doing any tattoo anywhere on your body BY YOURSELF.

Reply:You mean Emla cream like they use in hopitals for needles?





http://www.expresschemist.co.uk/EMLA-Cre...





Link about emla cream and tattooing-http://tattoo.about.com/cs/articles/a/nu...
Reply:I personally don't think these creams work very well since by the time the skin is prepped and the stencil is applied, etc., what little "numbing" has occurred is pretty much worn off.





Better to use the gels on the market for after the skin is broken and the tattoo has begun. Many artists won't use them, they say the tattoo doesn't turn out but you only need to use it once for about 30 seconds and then clean it off and keep tattooing. It makes a huge difference at that point and is great for when the client starts bottoming out and can't handle any more.





dermalsource.com sells these products to the artist.
Reply:I know a few tattooist personaly and the wont work on you if there is anything on the skin because they clean the area before to help prevent infections! You want the ink tough it out!
Reply:first let me tell you that the numming cream they put on the area for your tattoo does NOT work so you will just have to take the pain. My sister wanted cindy to use the numing cream and it didn't work my sister felt every needle movement. so Dont spend the money to have it nummed cause it doesn't work
Reply:there is numbing cream but it takes forever to tattoo...it takes about a half hour to work and only last about a half hour so a tattoo artist usual refuses it and to do a tat yourself is risky i hope your experienced but im doubting it by your question. and if the tat is in a sensitive spot i recomend not doing it than by yourself you may screw up and not have it deep enough or cause infection. dont do it
Reply:Even the most sensitive and horrible places to get tattooed are easily survivable. Tattooing may hurt, but it is not going to be so bad that you break down weeping or go into shock unless you work yourself up into quite the emotional fit.





If it is a "sensitive" place that you'd rather not post I can speak from experience that even those are not painful enough to need to be numbed. Just breathe and be patient. The little bit of pain is more than worth the result.

Is it okay to use E45 cream on my cat's dry skin?

My cat has recently had a bout of ringworm and has been treated for it with a daily medicine from the vets. That was a few weeks ago and the fungal infection has now gone (vet checked it out %26amp; confirmed it with a lab test) but the cat has some dry patches of skin left over that seem a bit flaky/itchy.


Now the infection itself has gone, is it okay to use human E45 cream on these areas to moisturise? As it's on her ear, there's no way she could lick it off.


Or do you know of any other cat-friendly moisturisers? Having spent £300 on her ringworm treatment I'm loath to take her back to the vet just for this!

Is it okay to use E45 cream on my cat's dry skin?
E45 is fine to use if the patches are very dry and irritating the cat. Only put a very very small amount on the area, and rub it in well. However, as others have said, some oil in the food can also help the problem. A product called Viacutan should be available from your vets, it is around £25-30, but would last around six months. It is very high in fats and protein, so therefore very good for moisturizing the skin from the inside. two to three pumps should be put on the food daily. Also, you say the cat is fed hills science diet - try giving only the wet food, more fluid in the body in general will also help.





If the patches do not go away, please return to your vet for a repeat skin scrape, ringworm is one hell of a thing to get rid of.
Reply:I don't know about using the human cream.





I use BagBalm when one of my cats gts dry skin or dry pads.





It's natural and completly safe for both human and pet. Plus it stays on and doesn't come off.





It's great for you to!





http://www.bagbalm.com/





It can be purchased at Walmart or any corner drug store. You don't get it from a vet. It only cost about $5.00 for a tub that will last forever.
Reply:i think it will be fine!! E45 is a mild product thus it is not likely to cause any irritation!! Also remember most products are tested on animals before being tested on humans so it is unlikely to cause any adverse affects!! If a product results in adverse effects on animals it usually does not make it to the human trials!! Whether the cream will work i do not know - but I very much doubt it will cause harm so go ahead and use the cream. If it does not clear up then go to a pet store to buy some cream. You don't have to go to a vet - they will just prescribe something that probaly cost more than double what a cream costs from the pet store!!!!
Reply:moisturizer won't do anything to solve the problem. Diet is lacking.


The dog foods, some will be promoted because it makes the coat shiny ... something different in the formulation like addition of eggs or liver. If it works for dog "hair" and hair and skin are related......just add(in this case) a raw egg (or liver)to the food bowl(occasionally). The cat will gobble that up. (Warning on the raw liver, DO NOT LET THE CAT SMELL IT IF YOU ARE DOLING IT OUT WITH YOUR FINGERS the cat will bite thru your finger -wanting that delicious treat-


Read the bags that promote glossy hair and you will see there is something different added.
Reply:The vet told us years ago to give our kitty some vegetable oil (just a "drizzle") in her food when she was having problems with dry skin. Another good treatment is Neosporin/antibiotic ointment. It does all it's work within 10 minutes so even if your kitty was to lick it off it will still be effective and according to my vet (when my kitty had been shot in the tail last year by some psychopath in our neighborhood who was taking pot shots at cats) it will not hurt your cat if she was to lick it off! (Even though it's on her ear, you know how kitties lick their paw and then "wash" their ears or face and then lick again!!)
Reply:You poor thing...!!


Yes vet bill are very high...!!!


I would try olive oil...


I think it is great and its ok if she licks it...


No harm done..


After a few times she will be ok..


Also give her raw egg once a week and liver...once a week


I find it wonderful for their fur...


Skin will improve..


Mine does...!!!


Good luck...!!!
Reply:I use just plain old lanolin on my cat's fur and skin. It won't hurt them, as it is what sheep produce in their own wool. It's inexpensive, you can get pure lanolin at the pharmacy, and although the cat hates having its fur rubbed the wrong way for a second, you can rub it on your hands to warm it up, rub it in the cat's fur, brush them, they lick off the rest, you can brush them again, and they have the shiniest fur, are static free from dry air, and your hands get soft to boot! Ask any sheep farmer why he has such soft hands. It's from shearing their wool. It doesn't take much. Also make sure they have plenty of water and a proper diet. My cat never flakes from dry skin in the winter, and I live where it snows all year (well, it seems that way, LOL).
Reply:I wouldn't.


Never use any OTC products made for humans on your cat.


It's very possible that something in the cream could be toxic to her.





No, she can't lick her ears, but she can lick her paws or legs and then groom her ears then lick the paw or leg again so there's still a very good chance she could ingest the cream.





With all that said if you don't want to spend the money for an office visit to get the cat something for the dry skin, why not call and read the ingredients list of this E45 to the Vet?


If there's nothing in it that's toxic to cats then it would be okay to use.


I would use it however unless the Vet said it was okay.

You can help to break up scar tissue with...


Onion juice - or an onion slice


Vitamin E oil


Tea Tree oil


Cocoa butter


Shea butter...


Applied directly to the scar several times each day.





If you have dark(er) skin because of the scar - apply lemon juice





++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++...





The rough skin that you have is (probably) because of acid that is in the product. Believe it or not... this is completely normal.








It is getting rid of dry, dead skin





After the roughness is gone - your new skin is revealed.

PIMPLES


Pimples is a unique skin disorder.Pimples are lesions that occur when the skin’s pores are obstructed or infected.They can form for a variety of reasons.However,the mechanism involved in causing some pores to collapse and block drainage of natural oils is not really understood. Pimples may also crop up for genetic reasons. It is not clear how it can be inherited from one’s parents, but studies do indicate a high occurrence of pimples in children whose parents had it,too.


The pimples associated with adolescence almost certainly occur because of hormonal changes that take place during puberty. Both males and females get an overdose of the male hormone testosterone during this period,causing excessive generation of sebaceous fluids that invariably cause pimples.





GIVEN BELOW ARE A FEW SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES TO FIGHT PIMPLES.





1.The most basic form of pimple prevention is hygiene and preventive skin care. Regular washing of the affected areas with mild soap is a must.The soap need not necessarily contain any chemicals designed to prevent pimples .However, face washing should not be overdone or the skin will become dehydrated .





2.Care should be taken on makeup,moisturizers and other skin care products.If these products are oil based,it would just make the problem worse. Use water based products instead.





3.Generally we rub, press or squeeze our pimples.Don’t when we do this,we risk spreading the bacteria to other areas.





4.Lemon juice diluted in water can be applied externally because of its antiseptic


quality.





5.Tea Tree oil can also be applied directly to infected pores.





6.Vitamin A tablets are also a natural and effective cure. Vitamin A promotes healthy skin.





7.Before bathing, apply a mixture of fresh tomato pulp, honey and rose-water to your face and keep for twenty minutes before washing off.





8.Juice of raw papaya is the best treatment for pimples.Apply fresh juice of raw papaya on pimples and get a good result.





9.Directly rub potato slices all over the face, helps to get rid of blemishes and


pimple scar.





10.Drink plenty of water and vegetable or fruit juices.





11.Use cucumber or other fruit and vegetable packs to cure pimple scars.





12.Maintain a diet that is rich in cottage cheese, salads, fresh juices, fish and


yogurt.These help to cleanse your system and ward off pimples.





13.Another overnight home remedy for pimples is to put a dab of toothpaste on it to help dry it out. Calamine lotion also will have the same drying effect.





14.Pound orange peel with water and apply to affected areas.





15.Another useful remedy for pimples is zinc. Which can be taken in a dose of 50 mg daily for a month and then reduce the dose.





16.You can clean your skin with apple cider vinegar as an overnight home pimple remedy.





17.Aspirin contains Beta hydroxy acid which is a powerful defoliant ,so you can crush 1to 2 Aspirin tablets mix with a little water and apply on pimples for 15 minutes and wash.





Finally,certain medications may temporarily alter the hormonal changes prevalent during adolescence and cause pimple outbreaks. If this is the case, a simple adjustment in medication may be all that is required.

Reply:well you can purchase the olay regenerist in a drugstore and its about twenty five bucks. first you wash your face and apply the regenerist cream to your face. if you have a cheap eletrical brush (that you don't use anymore or if you buy a new one just for your face) you can use that to massage your face after applying the regenerist cream. Dont forget to massage your nose and on the sides. Then, rinse your face. Next, apply a toner (any brand like clean and clear, olay, etc.) Pour into cotton ball and smooth it out all over face. Next apply a moisturizer and it would be best if it has SPF 15 in it. I got this advice from a friend and it made my face really smooth and younger looking.

To make the skin fair bath with milk(by putting some milk in ur bath water) or put milk cream on ur skin.

What is a good cream I can use for dry skin on the face?
Try Cetaphil. It's noncomedogenic so it won't make you break out and it's good for really dry skin. It's about $10-$12 for 16 oz. Also try their facial cleanser; it's better for your skin than soap.

Just the plain moisturizer works really good.

What is a good eye cream/gel for someone with oily skin?

I'd like to start using an eye cream/gel, but I have oily, acne-prone skin. I don't want to use something that will aggravate my skin type, so I'd appreciate some recommendations. Thanks!

I have the same problem and I use Clarins Soothing eye gel. It feels nice and cool and doesn't aggravate my skin in any way, works wonders for hungover puffy eyes too
Reply:I would look into Arbonnes NutriMinC-RE9 anti aging cream. It works for me. Report It

Reply:I am in my mid 50s and started using this product almost 8 months ago and I absolutely love it. It is called Arbonne, it is a little pricey but their Nutrimin C RE9 regimen is great. I have oily skin and am prone to break outs even now at my age, and this does not break me out, I still get a little oily on my forehead about mid day but I don't think I will ever get rid of that (could be heritage and genetics) If you go to www.arbonne.com you can find a rep in your area, good luck.....
Reply:I also use Arbonne RE9, but if your looking for something frangrance free, and gentle on your senstive skin, there is Arbonne Intelligence Eye cream, and a whole set.


It also helps repair acne,acne scars,oily skin,redness,etc...It adjusts to all skin types. Its water based.


good stuff Email MFRIEDRICH1@HOTMAIL.COM


I can send you a sample pack








As for aging, just make sure your using products that contain NO Mineral Oils, and Have an SPF of at least 4 in them.


Good luck!

Is there any cream i can take for a skin staph infection?

I'm pretty much allergic to ALL antibiotics.


The docs put me on clindamycin and it almost killed me this week. (anaphylacic shock)


Is there a cream on the market that will help? I refuse to ever take another antibiotic after this scare,but i'd really like to get rid of this skin staph.

Is there any cream i can take for a skin staph infection?
try tea tree oil and staph ceptic you can get them both at walgreens. staph ceptic is for treating boils caused by staph that is non responsive to antibiotics and tea tree oil is all natural it is from austrailia you just dab it on with cotton ball. but the most part is to be sure and bath with an antibacterial soap and never reuse a hand towel or let anyone share a hand towel with you staph is very very hard to get rid of so the best cure is to keep yourself extremely clean and bath after certain activities inwhich you sweat. even adult activities are subject to the spread of staph. so be very carefull and good luck...

Good eye cream for 23yrs old w/ sensitive skin?

i'm 23 yrs old w/ sensitive skin. and looking for a good eye cream, but cheap like loreal or clinique..


any suggestion?

Good eye cream for 23yrs old w/ sensitive skin?
Olay has high quality products that are good for sensitive skin. For your eyes, I'd recommend Olay Cleansing Cloths (to remove makeup) or just a daily moisturizer (Total Effects Daily Moisturizer, or 7 Signs Serum). Most products cost less than $10. Check out some other inexpensive eye creams at palacinka.com
Reply:I use Olay too. The whole line is great and works so well with sensitive skin Report It

Reply:believe it or not....Vaseline is amazing eye cream....(especially under eyes, and if you put it on your eye lashes at night it makes them stronger) ...i read both of these in magazines


-Vaseline is so cheap! you can also use it as lip gloss:)


good luck!
Reply:I would try Mary Kay or Nivea. Both work well with sensitive skin.
Reply:Hi There! Sensitive skin can be brought on by so many different things-how you care for your skin-Are the products you use right for your skin type? You may just be sensitive to a particular ingredient-it all depends on what your skin does.





Anyway, eye cream is designed for the eye area, and the eye area is much different than the other areas on your face, like smaller pores, less oil glands, etc. There are some brands that put ingredients that could make you more sensitive than others. Being a young gal, like myself, you can use a basic eye cream-we don't need all the ultra, firming, wrinkle reducing creams-it won't hurt to use them. But with less of the crazy ingredients you may find that your skin doesn't 'react' or become sensitive!





When you go to purchase-checkout different brands. Test them out on your hand-talk with the sales associate, ask them to tell you about it, and the price. It may take a while to find the one you like and will keep purchasing, be patient-you'll find it!





Good luck!


(Oh, and when you do get one, keep it in the fridge, applying it cool feels great and can help with minimizing 'bags'.)

Anti-wrinkle cream that is good for sensive skin?

Everytime I buy a certain type of anti-wrinkle cream it leaves a rash the following day that looks like a sun burn. I need to find a good one for sensitive skin, preferibly a good brand like Dior or something. Any suggestions?

clinque
Reply:use lye.

Reply:There really are no Anti-wrinkle creams that work. Most of them are just sun screen, because sun block protects you from getting more wrinkles than you have. If you have tons and tons of wrinkles, go to a dermotologist and ask to get something done to your face (my mom had it and it worked well!) Don't rely on creams. Also, use sunblock to prevent your face from getting more wrinkles!!





Good luck, and remember, be happy with how you look and who you are!%26lt;3
Reply:I don't think any of the over the counter anti wrinkle creams really work. The most important thing to do is use a moisturizer like nivea religiously everyday. Dryness and the elements are what causes wrinkles. I've tried every anti wrinkle cream under the sun and they don't seem to do any better then regular creams. So your best bet is to moisturize and don't forget the sunscreen if you are going to be in the sun.
Reply:The best anti-wrinkle cream i've used is Revitol's Anti-Aging Cream.





First, the main benefits:





1.Diminishes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles (I was sold)


2. Reduces the signs of aging


3. Stimulate the renewal of skin cells


4. Hydrate dried skin


5. Smooth rough skin to give it an even tone


My reviews/ my results:





I've used the product for nearly three months, and I saw a dramatic difference in about three weeks (even my husband noticed). My "crow's feet" are lighter and barely visible. The deep wrinkles on my forehead have also soften (my most concern). The original order lasted me a few day shy of three months with a daily application. Overall, I saw changes.





PROS:





Soften furrow between eyes


Facial skin is overall softer and smoother


Dark under eye showed significant improvement.


And my pores have definitely reduced in size


CONS:





I had to order the product instead of picking it up at the local store. Revitoal shipped my product within a business day and I got it in the mail several days after that. Also, the night serum causes a slight tingling feeling for about 30 seconds upon application. I was unaware of this, but later learned that it was safe and was a sign that the product is working.


Results are best when you keep using the product. This might be inconvenient for some people.





Other comments: customer service was great! I called in about the tingling sensezation and they were able to clarify everything for me Several of my girlfriends (and their husbands) have also started using Revitol's Anti-Aging Solution. There is also a 180 days money back guaranteed; that's six months. Most other companies only give a "30-day money back guaranteed" but it takes several months to see the results.
