17 Bad Skin Habits

The skin sins to leave in 2009.

The best way to keep your skin from getting wrinkled, saggy, and speckled is sunscreen, SPF 30 at the minimum. Broad-spectrum formulas (meaning they shield against both UVA and UVB rays) with Mexoryl or Helioplex offer the longest-lasting protection. (We like Neutrogena Ultra-Sheer Dry-Touch Sunblock SPF 55 and La Roche-Posay Anthelios 40.) Apply a whole tablespoon to your face, and the equivalent of a shot glass on your body. For workdays, reapply before your commute home if the sun is still out—even if you’ll be in a car. And for days when you’ll be outside for an extended period of time, reapply every

3. Drinking Too Much

Now, we’re not taking away all your fun—you can still have a glass of something. But drink more than one cocktail a day, and your skin suffers. Alcohol increases the level inflammatory agents in the bloodstream—”which can hasten skin sagging over time,” says Fredric Brandt, a dermatologist in New York City and Coral Gables, Florida.

7 MAKEUP TRENDS TO LEAVE IN 2009

Products

Using stuff that’s wrong for your skin type is a hugely common mistake, says Miami dermatologist Leslie Baumann, author of The Skin Type Solution (Bantam). Here’s what you should know:

OILY SKIN: Choose a cleanser with salicylic acid, such as Bioré Blemish Fighting Ice Cleanser. Fight shine with an oil-free lotion, such as Vichy Laboratoires NormaDerm Pro Mat Oil-Free Lotion SPF 15, followed by a mattifying serum that contains aluminum silica, such as Smashbox Anti-Shine Anti-Brilliance. Rub on a chemical exfoliant such as glycolic acid once a week. Try Avon Anew Clinical Advanced Retexturizing Peel.

SENSITIVE SKIN: Wash with a milky cleanser such as Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser. Use a fragrance-free, nonirritating sunscreen such as Olay Complete All Day Moisture Lotion SPF 15 Sensitive Skin. Look for anti-aging creams with added hydrators such as hyaluronic acid and shea butter, like Replenix Serum CF and Estée Lauder Time Zone Line and Wrinkle Reducing Creme SPF 15.

COMBINATION SKIN: Choose a foaming cleanser for oily skin. Use a lightweight moisturizer, like H20+ Face Oasis Plus Hydrating Fluid SPF 15, but dab a thicker one, like Origins Plantidote Mega-Mushroom Face Cream, on dry spots.

DRY SKIN: Nonsoap creamy cleansers, like Eucerin Gentle Hydrating Cleanser, don’t strip away protective oils. A moisturizer with trehalose, such as Shiseido The Skincare Day Moisture Protection SPF 15 or Clinique Superdefense Triple Action Moisturizer SPF 25 for Dry/ Combination Skin, will prevent tightness. Apply an anti-aging treatment with retinol every other day (daily use could aggravate dryness). Or switch to a cream with kinetin or the Matrixyl—they’re less drying than retinoids.

5. Ignoring Your Neck and Chest

Skin care doesn’t stop at your jawline. “These areas are almost always exposed, and yet they rarely receive same level of hydration and sun protection as the face. But the skin there is more delicate and just as vulnerable to photoaging,” says Los Angeles dermatologist Howard Fein. The fix is simple: The next time you apply serum, face cream, or sunscreen or give yourself an exfoliating treatment, extend everything down to your décolletage.

 

6. Overlooking Moles

A study conducted by the National Cancer Institute showed that fifty percent more melanoma cases occurred in women ages 15 to 39 in 2004 than in 1980. The lesson here? Everyone needs to get a mole screening with a dermatologist once a year—and you should also check yourself every month, remembering to examine less-obvious places such as your scalp, the soles of your feet, and under your nails. Look at the American Academy of Dermatology’s guidelines here. Even if your moles pass the test, don’t underestimate the power of gut instinct: “If you look at something twice,” says Philadelphia dermatologist Eric Bernstein, “show it to a dermatologist.”

7. Using Dirty Makeup Brushes

Eh, why bother, you think. Here’s why: Skip washing your brushes and you could wind up with muddied colors, clogged pores, and bacterial infections. Once every three weeks, lather brushes with a gentle shampoo such as Neutrogena Anti-Residue Shampoo, rinse well, and let them dry overnight or use wipes, such as Japonesque Pro Brush Cleaner Wipes. Another option: Clinique Antibacterial Brush collection—they’re treated with a microbial solution that destroys germs. (You still have to wash them, but only about once a month.)

8. Constant Phone Chatter

Resting your chin or cheek against a phone—cell or old-school—can lead to breakouts, whether or not the phone is clean and bacteria-free. “Just leaning your face against it can cause friction, occlusion, and heat, all of which can make you break out,” says Bay Area dermatologist Katie Rodan. If your chatting habit is too ingrained to shake, consider a headset.

10. Staying Up Late

“Sleep deprivation causes stress, which can aggravate all skin conditions, including acne, eczema, and psoriasis,” says Karyn Grossman, a dermatologist in Santa Monica and New York City. “Sleep is also the time when your body repairs the damage from the day, and interrupting that process will slow down cell turnover.” In the short term, this can mess with the way blood flows to the skin, which can make your complexion sallow.

11. Not Washing Your Face at Night

Letting skin marinate in makeup—not to mention a day’s worth of oil buildup—can lead to clogged pores and zits, especially if you’re prone to acne. “Your body temperature increases slightly when you sleep, which can enhance absorption of whatever’s on the surface,” says Rodan. “So you really want only beneficial ingredients on your face when you sleep.”

14. Popping Zits

We know, we know: It’s tempting. But the reality is that squeezing a pimple just pushes bacteria deeper into the pores, causing inflammation, infection, and scarring—and almost doubling the zit’s life span (from about one week to two). Napalming it with the harshest chemicals in the bathroom won’t help, either. “Treating any breakout with too much benzoyl peroxide damages the skin around the spot and can cause more irritation,” says Boston dermatologist Jeffrey Dover. Here’s what you should do: Use a spot treatment with no more than 2.5 percent benzoyl peroxide at night, and reapply it to major zits in the morning. Try Neutrogena On-the-Spot Acne Treatment. For persistent acne, a prescription retinoid, such as Retin-A, helps prevent blocked pores—but doctors warn it can exacerbate the redness of existing pimples, so avoid slathering it over full-blown ones.

A WOMAN CALLED 911 TO SAY SHE NEEDED A HUSBAND

Wow really?? Call Lava life instead if you’re looking for a husband not 911! lol

A WOMAN CALLED 911 TO SAY SHE NEEDED A HUSBAND:

Last week, 57-year-old woman in Ohio, called 911 five times in one hour. 

The first four times, she quickly hung up . . . the fifth time, she started talking to the 911 operator.

She said she had a major emergency.  She really needed a HUSBAND.

When she told the 911 operator her emergency, the 911 operator asked her, quote, “You’re calling 911 to get a husband? 

Do you know you can get arrested for dialing 911?”  The woman responded, quote, “Let’s do it.”

So a police officer went over to Audrey’s house and arrested her. 

At the police station, she admitted she called 911 looking for a husband because, quote, “I had too much to drink.”

She stayed in jail three days. 

And, as of right now, she still doesn’t have a husband.

Hugh Masekela, R Kelly, Soweto Spiritual Singers, and Shakira’s Waka Waka song will be among the big performances. Other include Johg Legend, Black Eyed Peas, Alicia Keys, Femi Kuti and also some local stars such as Amadou, and Hip Hop Pantsula.A special tribute will be paid to Siphiwo Ntshebe who passed away recently due to bacterial meningitis.Perhaps the biggest reason to watch World Cup 2010 opening ceremony live online, or at home – will be because of Nelson Mandela.

Your Daily Horoscope

IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

Brush up on your communication skills and try to convince those you live, work and do business with that you have a plan that will work. But don’t spend too long talking – it’s deeds that get things done.

ARIES (March 21 – April 20):

Although you like to do things for people, it’s not always the wisest move. You may feel sorry for someone you meet today but don’t let your sympathy show or they will play on your feelings. Pretend you don’t care.

TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):

It does not matter what other people believe, it matters only that you have a right to be different. Others don’t have to approve of your actions, of course, but since when have you cared what the critics think?

GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):

Just this once it might be wise to meet a rival or competitor halfway, especially if they can help your ambitions get off the ground. Use your natural acting skills and pretend that you like them. Life’s a stage after all.

CANCER (June 22 – July 23):

You need to deal with a family quarrel positively rather than hide your head in the sand and hope that it goes away. If you have had your fill of someone’s constant moaning then it’s time that you said so.

LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):

If you go to extremes you will encourage others to be extreme as well, and the situation could quickly get out of hand. If you must say something unpleasant, wait until Venus enters your sign on Monday.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):

A few days from now you will know for certain if something you have been planning stands a realistic chance of success. You may be impatient to get on with it but you are advised not to rush. Time’s still on your side.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):

The planets are warning you not to push yourself too hard or to allow your emotions to dictate your actions. You of all people should know that balance is essential physically, mentally and emotionally too.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):

Do something original and stand out from the crowd. By nature you are a leader rather than a follower, so be brave and be different. The best reason for not doing something is because everyone else is doing it.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):

If you are honest about the negative aspects of a relationship today you can quite easily turn those negatives into positives. The approaching new moon will help you find perfect solutions to difficult problems.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):

You have what it takes to win a battle of wits, either at work or in your social circle, but you would be wise not to make too big an issue of it. Always respect your opponent – and you’ll get their respect in return.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):

Be true to who you are and what you believe, even if it means you clash with someone in a position of power. Chances are they will admire your strength of character and your clarity of purpose. Its hard not to.

PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):

You need to be open and honest, and even-handed, with everyone, even those who are not always fair-minded with you. Just because others have no moral compass does not mean you should throw yours overboard.
