Boost Sallow Skin with Home-Made Fruit Facials
Sunday, 10 July 2011
When you're feeling poorly inside, your skin is the first to know it... and show it. Sallow skin, which can happen as a result, is skin that lacks the shine and luster that's often seen in healthy skin.
If you have sallow skin, perk it up with some home-made goodness found as close as your kitchen.
That's right, natural ingredients can be used to help enhance the appearance of your skin without harsh chemicals. One such way is with a fruit facial mask that anyone can create at home with the right foods. The mask will work to remove excess oils, retain moisture and remove dead cell layers so healthier skin underneath can shine through.
Here are some ingredients that you can use to make a fruit facial mask.
Strawberries – They are filled with antioxidants. For sallow skin, the seeds can gently exfoliate the outer layers without being harsh. You can also use raspberries and blackberries.
Oatmeal – All masks need to have filler that holds the mask together. Oatmeal is good to absorb any excess oil in the skin and soften its feel. Try to find oatmeal that is ground to a fine powder instead of the big rolled oats.
Bananas – And you wonder why babies have such shiny skin. Bananas are added for help in retaining moisture in your skin.
Grapes – They contain antioxidant substances as well. See your skin tighten and tone.
Cucumber – They are not just for your eyes but your entire face. Cucumbers reduce swelling and puffiness while soothing and cooling your skin.
Need help for your skin? How about a fruit facial mask? You can make it at home whenever you need to improve the look of your skin.

Body Focus System Weight Loss Success
I'm a 40 something year old guy that over the last 10 years has slowly but surely gained weight. I have never been the type of guy to diet, but after having to go for sleep apnea testing, starting medication to control my high blood pressure, and being 40 pounds overweight, found it was time to do something.
I went to a Body Focus System seminar to hear what they had to say and I was surprised. The Detox is what really got my attention. I had always wanted to try a detox, but did not like the thought of having only liquids or having to drink some crazy mixture that tasted like who knows what.
I decided to sign up and give this "diet" a try. I cannot tell you how happy I am that I did! Let me first tell you about the detox. I started with the fruit detox in August and from the first day there was more to eat than I ever expected. I always assumed a diet would be about eating food you don't like and trying to forget about how hungry you are. With the detox, there were days that I was eating a snack before I was even hungry. I lost over 7 pounds during the detox eating fruits that I like and not feeling hungry at all.
