Look Good All Summer Long! Exclusive Tips For Home
Introduce yourself to some form of excercise. The sooner the better! It’s the modern-day revolutionary tonic to combat the challenges of our demanding lifestyles. In the mean time, however, we though we’d supply you with a good number of tips to ensure that you look good throughout this summer.

Keep Your Skin Moisturised
Getting plenty of (healthy) fluids and eating the right foods will put you on the right track. However they’ll be of little use if your skincare principles aren’t up to scratch. Instead of using that heavy foundation this summer, simply use a light moisturiser with sun block.

Is Your Massage Experience Worth it?

Is your massage worth it?

I could have called this article “How To Tell if Your Massage Therapist is Any Good”, because it all boils down to the same thing. The rest of what you will read here will elaborate on the massage procedure led by an experienced and skilled massage therapist.

About Your Massage
The experience you’ve booked for yourself is supposed to be soothing, relaxing and rejuvenating. Naturally there are different techniques, each with its own special aim. Nevertheless, all of them will focus on relaxation and stimulating your body’s natural healing power. That being said, we’re sure you’d like some questions answered. Let’s take a look at some of the most common:

How to combat Dry Skin

Posted by Sydney Mobile Therapies on January 7th, 2011

Dry Body Brushing

Usually due to dry, cold winter months, lack of moisture results in dry skin and cracked lips in need. Constant nourishment can quickly transform your dry skin to a new, radiant summer skin.

Moisturising your skin is important all year round and lotions actually work best when your skin is slightly damp because the cream will lock in the water in the upper layers of your skin and prevent it form evaporating.
Next time you get out of the shower, resist the urge to reach for your warm, fluffy towel straight away. Instead, apply a good quality body cream concentrating on any dry areas such as knees and elbows.

Discover the benefits of Green Tea

Green Tea

Welcome back! Today i will share with you one of my best secrets.

I have lately converted from a coffee lover to being passionate about green tea and for a few good reasons. The Chinese have known about the health benefits of green tea for thousands of years and even used it medicinally. Now the rest of the world are slowly catching on and the humble tea leaf is starting to appear in everything from ice cream to moisturisers.

Why it’s so good
Studies have shown that the polyphenols (natural chemicals) found in green tea can help ease lifestyle diseases such as obesity and may prevent and reduce the severity of rheumatoid arthritis.

Manis & Pedis last longer

Welcome back for yet another beauty tips & tricks article!
Your professional Manicures & Pedicures will last longer if you look after your hands between treatments by giving yourself regular mini-mani’s at home. But don’t think you need hours of time and lots of equipment. Here’s five easy steps to keep your fingers looking good between visits from our team at Sydney Mobile Therapies.

Clean: Start by removing any old nail polish, then soak your hands in warm water. Use a scrub (the one you use on your body is fine) on dead surface skin and rough patches, and a nail brush to clean your nails, including underneath.

Natural Beauty Tips From The Kitchen!

Natural face mask

Welcome back! Today we will talk about natural care recipes that will revive your skin at almost no cost!

Beauty from the kitchen
What to do if you’re between facials but your skin needs a pick-me-up? Turn to the kitchen cupboard of course! Many ingredients you already have at home are great sources of essential vitamins for your skin. And the old trick of cucumbers on the eyes to reduce puffiness? It’s not a myth. Cucumber tones up the skin around the eyes and cools and soothes inflamed eyes.

Modern make-up and new trends

Makeup trends

Hi again, today we will talk about makup and colours. Tired of the same old neutral tones of your makeup? It’s easy to inject some colour into your look but you just have to know how. Here’s an easy guide:

Red
Wear it: It’s all about lips and nails. Look for reds with orange or brownish undertones if you have an olive complexion, and go for a pink base if you have fair skin.
Avoid it: If you’re going for rosy cheeks, make sure they don’t end up too red or skin will look blotchy.

Look Younger Avoid Skin Stress!

Healthy Looking Skin

Hi everyone, i am back with my first real blog post. Today i will give you some tips how to maintain a more youthful, healthy looking skin the natural way!

The skin is your body’s largest organ – and the most telling. When you’re tired, stressed, anxious or worried chances are it will show up on your skin. Red cheeks, frown lines and an irritated scalp are all tell-tale signs something isn’t right.

Worry = frown lines.
If you frown when you’re worried those lines on your forehead will eventually become permanent. Try applying a concentrated wrinkle cream to the area daily. Look for ones with ingredients such as collagen or silicone that will plump and smooth lines instantly.
