The Health Myth: Alcohol in cosmetic product

Alcohol is not bad for skin. Certain desirable ingredient in skin care product must be bonded to alcohol in order to be contained in the product's formulation. Not all alcohol in cosmetic product is isopropyl or rubbing alcohol, which have effect a cooling, drying sensation to the skin. Alcohol from biochemical points means that there is a molecular compound with an OH at the end of it. Its almost same with the definitions of alkaline. What's at the other end of the compound could completely alter it's behavior in the product. Benzyl, ethyl, acetyl or oleyl are called fatty alcohol, which act as emollient. These decrease water loss from the skin and soften it.

GARDENING

Gardening is my hobby. It's free, fun and healthy.... but dirty. But most important is the feeling when you touch the soil, throw the seed on top it and when the tiny seed grow to be a plant... small creature that suddenly pop up from no where... Wow... the feeling is Unbelieveable. Gardening is hard working. Yes it is. You will wet with sweat, smelly...and blacky..if too long stay under the sun withou the sunblock. But it's also happy, smiley and fantastic when when see how beautiful our back yard or side yard becaus of our own hand work. No need to call a landscaping or something like that... we just need to pull up our sleeve and start digging

Why Do We Age?

Why some people look much younger than their years? Or why people in the same age with different lifestyle have different fase of ageing? Like we know the ageing can see directly from the condition of the skin. Like wrinkle, black spot, or etc. There are two factor that work in the process of ageing. Outside factor and inside factor. Outside factor like sun burn, smoking and poor diet. Inside factor is like the changing in hormone levels and perhaps the genetic. Skin ageing is not just about oxygen depletion, free radical damage, collagen destruction, less collagen, less cell turnover, abnormal cell formation, or hormone loss--but it is a combination of all these and more. There are changes that generally occur in the skin's cell as the ageing process takes hold. Slowing cell metabolism creates a lack of sodium oxidase dimutase, catalase and glutathione perioxidase --the vital fuel used by the skin for normal functions. The productions of anti-oxidants decrease naturally, lea...

Green Forest

Image
A forest is an area with a high density of trees . There are many definitions of a forest, based on various criteria. These plant communities cover approximately 9.4% of the Earth's surface (or 30% of total land area) and function as habitats for organisms, hydrologic flow modulators , and soil conservers, constituting one of the most important aspects of the Earth's biosphere . Historically, "forest" meant an uncultivated area legally set aside for hunting by feudal nobility , and these hunting forests were not necessarily wooded much if at all (see Royal Forest ). However, as hunting forests did often include considerable areas of woodland, the word forest eventually came to mean wooded land more generally. A woodland is ecologically distinct from a forest. There are alot of kind of Forest. 1) Rain forest are forests characterized by high rainfall , with definitions setting minimum normal annual rainfall between 1750-2000 mm (68-78 inches).The undergrowth ...

Lambaian hati

Lampung barat is a beautiful place. Surrounding by the Bukit Barisan forest makes it amazing and magnificent. You can get anything over here. And the hill near the water fall is my favorit resting places. Lampung barat I talking about is Sumberjaya . Where the green forest line up from south to north, from west to east. The weather so cool and fresh. Especially when the coffee flower bloosom in the morning while the dew hangging on the leaf waiting for sunlight to evaporate it back into mist. I have Amnesia Selective. I forgot almost everything but I couldn't not forget Sumberjaya. Here I grown up from little girl to a teenager. My school was SDN 02 Purajaya, there was many memory but only one left, about my bestfriend. Last time I don't know her very well, even now, but I still think about her, she is my first best friend. Her name NURDALILAh. Do you know her? Send my best regard to her, tell her...what have done is done. We have to move on, how can we makes a new memory if al...

When ...the moon comes by

Having period is just what being woman is about. Some experience no discomfort during this time, while others go through excruciating period pains. I'm part of the latter group. Having period for me is like get punishment for being a woman. I get abdominal cramp, nausea, moody and generally feel unwell. And the most is I hate being touch by the opposite sex. So, when my period come, I better stay away from anyone around me, because if not, I'll create 'war'. Actually, as a woman it is  blessing if we having period regularly. Normally, the first day of the period is starting point of the 28-day menstrual cycle, but this is also sometime not sure, depend to each individual and hormonal. Ovulation takes place 14 days from the start of the period, when an egg matures and is released from the ovary. And if we have sex during this time, and the  egg get fertilized, women will get pregnant, otherwise, menstruation begins. Staying fresh and cleans is important during the me...

Approximately 75% of the ody weight is water. Water maintains moisture in the body, transports oxygen to the blood and help carry nutrients through blood. water also the important thing to comtrol our body temperatur, in fact..almost all biological function in our body requires the help of water. Water naturally supresses the appetite amd helps the body metabolize stored fat. If the water intake is decrease, our fat deposit will increase.

Especially Kidney, this organ can't work properly without enough water in our system. The kidney failure will make our liver steps in to boost the kidney function. However, the extra work loadon the liver prevents it from another function. it's ability to metabolize fats quick and effisien and will increase the accumulation of fats in our body. Normaly we drink 6-8 glass per day. And if w...

More women die because of hearth disease than cancer. That's way some people call it...silent killer. Heart disease can occur anytime, anywhere and anyone. Don't be so proud...because you till young, strong so you won't get heart disease. It's all start and depend from our eating habit and daily activity.

when A man loves a woman

"When a man loves a woman...." I like that song and also the movie. Andy garcia and Meg ryan. For men who love women more, it's doesn't matter what she did, the matter is he loves her. All is about love. Not everytime we can find the men who loves women more tilll sacrifice his need, his principle, or even himself. Achiless did it in the great story "Troy", so does Leonardo di caprio in "Titanic". Don't say it's just movie and everything can happen. No. You also can be a hero for your women. Just give a bit attention for they need, and in return you get all love she has. Fair enough,right? Start from now! Learn and understanding her...because..." when a man loves a woman ..."
