“НАШЕ ЖИТТЯ”, ТРАВЕНЬ 201 2 WWW. UNWLA.ORG 33 HOW TO ACHIEVE RADIANT - LOOKING SKIN by Ihor Magun, MD, FACP Every woman longs for glowin g skin that shi m- mers year round — s kin that looks good without excessive makeup. Thankfully , there are ways to a more natural - looking and youthful visage that require only a few minutes per day. S o let’ s start our facial fitness regimen and get glowing ! The most important secret to radiant skin is a regular exfoliation treatment. Exfoliation should be done several times per week to remove the dead cells that are the cause of dull - looking skin. Exfoliation regenerates and rejuvenates the skin surface for a younger and fresher look. There are many products available in different price ranges. Spend a few minutes lo oking at the various choices. Products that are u n- scented, hypoallergenic , and dermatologist - approved are probably your best bet. Products manufactured by Neutrogena and Olay are usually of a good quality, reasonably priced , and found in many pharmacies. There are of course m ore expensive products , but they are not necessarily better. However, i f you are looking for a specific additional benefit or for a product designed for more sensitive skin, by all means invest in it. The difference between cleansers, masks , and peels is the duration of application. Most cleansers are just applied to the face and washed off. Masks and peels are left on for a period of time , which permits active ingr e- dients to penetrate into the skin. Peels ac tually bond th e dead skin cells, so use them sparin g- ly. Overuse of peels can not only damage the skin but also make it more sun - sensitive. After exfoliating, apply an antioxidant serum, such as 10% L - asorbic acid , followed by a moi s turizer. Get adequate rest. Don’ t u nderestimate the importance of eight hours of sleep. Sleep less , and your face will show it. Utilize this time to rejuvenate the skin with the help of a moist u- rizer . Consider seeing a physician to prescribe a retinoid cream to use at night. Alternatively , y ou can purchase a nonprescription version. Eat a balanced diet. Incorporate fresh fruits , especially berries, and vegetables, especially green leafy ones , as well as lean meat, fish, and whole grains. Stay well hydrated. Monitor alcohol intake, as too much of alcohol is never a good idea . Try to work on stress management. Practice meditation to de - stress. Laugh frequently: ev e- ry one seems to have a more positive aura and a youthful glow when smiling and laughing. Apply sunscreen daily. An SPF of 30 or more i s a good choice. If you must have so me bronze color, opt for a self - tanning product or a spray - on tan. Lastly , keep skin care simple. Get into a good routine an d do not mix too many pro d- ucts. Some products cancel each other out. A l- so, gi ve time for the products to work. Remember to t ake care of your skin on a daily b a- sis. Doing this will not only mak e you feel great about yourself but also get you compliments on how good you really look. ЛІКУВАЛЬНІ ВЛАСТИВОСТІ ГРУШКИ Ще в давні часи побутувала думка, що грушка допомагає знижувати температуру та гоїть рани. В наші дні вчені дослідили, що грушки мають в собі тонізуючі речовини, різні вітаміни та велику кількість фолієвої кислоти, яка так необхідня ва гітним жінкам та дітям. Хворим бронхітом чи навіть туберкульозом дуже корисно є їсти варені або печені грушки. А відвар з сушених грушок лікує кашель, допомагає при хворобі сечових шляхів. Свіжі грушки допо ма - гають лікувати різні шлункові хвороби, допо магають у випадку захворювання кровоносної системи, укріплюючи капіляри. Але при споживанні грушок потрібно дотримуватись деяких обмежень. Не варто їсти свіжі грушки відразу після ситного обіду, краще почекати з півгодини. А також після грушок швидше ніж за три години лікарі не радять споживати м ’ ясо, застерігають від вживання грушок надще. А ще грушка – знменитий косметичний засіб, наприклад, якшо розімнути її з ложкою смета - ни, додати ложку соку грейпфрута і намастити цією сумішшю обличчя на 30 хвилин. Така маска зво - ложує суху шкіру. Допомагає м ’ якоть грушки і у виведенні веснянок, що так турбують юних красунь. Такі маски легко змиваються літеплою водою.
