How to maintain your summer tan
After trying so hard to obtain a healthy tan for a lot of us it would be a pity to let it fade away. There are some tricks that can be applied in order for you to enjoy more of your chocolate looking skin.
Normally the bronze color of your skin is given by the pigment situated in your epidermal layer. In time, due to natural exfoliation of the cells and due to cosmetic treatments like peeling and gommage, the tan will fade away. These procedures should be done within a week before going in vacation and exposing your body to the sun. Also, avoid taking long showers or baths as they will have a resembling effect on your skin as cosmetic exfoliation has.

You should use skin nurturing and hydrating lotions and creams daily as they maintain the healthy aspect of your skin and also delay its exfoliation, meaning that they will help you enjoy more of your tan.
How to keep your blood pressure under control
During the summer days people suffering from cardiac affections can suffer major problems with their blood pressure. The blood pressure is the force exercised by the blood on the arteries, measured during the heart’s systole and diastole. Normally our blood pressure should somewhere between 110/60mmHg and 130/80 mmHg.
If the blood vessels get narrowed, the blood circulation becomes a little bit difficult and the heart needs to
work more. Automatically the values of the blood pressure will be rising. Sometimes other organic affections like hormonal unbalances, kidney affections or even pregnancy can cause hypertension.
There are some other factors that can influence our blood pressure too: smoking, obesity, stress, and alcohol intake.
Here is what we can do in order to maintain a normal blood pressure level:
1. Give up smoking. Not only you will protect your heart vessels but will also decrease the risk of developing lung cancer.
Tips on treating diarrhea
How to treat diarrhea
During the summer it can often happen for us to get diarrhea. This can happen due to altered aliments we consume (even though we do not know this), due to traveling (when going in vacation) or due to negative emotions that some of us have to bear during the final exams. For all these diarrhea causes I have managed to make up a list of 5 easy to apply tips for getting well again.
1. Do not avoid liquids.
During a week of diarrhea a lot of liquids are lost by our body and this can lead to a serious dehydration. It is important to keep a balance between the liquid losses and the liquid ingestion. You can drink water as long as it is from a sure source. If you do not know if the water you drink is pure, you should boil it and let it cool down before you drink it.
6 Powerful Feet Hygiene Tips!
Having smelly feet? Try these 6 tips and you will be as good as new.
As summer is approaching with high speed, we must be very careful with our body hygiene as heat can make our body sweat in an uncontrollable way and spoil our public image. Sometimes, no matter how often we would wash ourselves our feet still remain a delicate problem. Smelly feet are quite a nightmare for a lot of people, but luckily with a little bit of discipline this issue can be corrected.
It seems that the unpleasant smell of the feet is caused by bacteria that develop by feeding with dead cells from underneath our socks. By practicing sports or any other activities and wearing shoes that do not allow the feet to breathe we only amplify the bad smell of our feet. The key to perfect feet is adopting a good hygiene.
How to get a healthy tan
As summer is coming I decided to post about how to get a healthy tan.
Sun can be a blessing for our health, but it can also be our enemy if we don’t have the basic information about it.
By exposing our bodies to the sun we can benefit of vitamin D which helps calcium absorb better and increase the strength of our bones. This is why as children our parents used to force us take sunbaths during the summer mornings when all we wanted to do is sleep or take baths in the sea.
Since researchers discovered the fact that sun exposure can cause skin cancer people have been careful with sun exposure and quite avoided it. Due to this fact the industry of solariums and tanning lotions had an outbreak as people had more confidence in artificial tanning than in the natural one. Well after a few years, solariums have proven their malignancy on our bodies and people began to trust the old sun again.
