A wrinkly cleavage causes some women as much angst as facial wrinkles. They can affect anyone, not just those of advancing years and women most prone to suffering from them are side sleepers. Apart from using invasive procedures to tackle the problem or sleeping permanently on your back, there’s not much you can do to improve them. However, there is an alternative and completely natural way of banishing chest creases, (at least temporarily), with a product called 'La Decollette'.

That flabby bit of skin which hangs beneath the upper arms, otherwise known as bingo wings, is notoriously difficult to shift. It's also an area of the body which women obsess about.

Losing the fat under your arms can’t be done overnight, but with the right combination of diet and exercise, it's possible to achieve noticeably improved results within a few weeks.

Dermal fillers are becoming an increasingly popular choice for those wanting to restore a more youthful appearance to their face. As we age, skin starts to lose its elasticity, becoming looser and more prone to wrinkling. Fillers can be used to fill the lines and wrinkles that start to appear, while providing greater tone and suppleness to sunken cheeks or under eye hollows. Sculptra® is one of many dermal fillers which is commonly used for these purposes.

Not too long ago the only realistic way of taking a few years off an aging face, was to undergo a facelift.  Nowadays, with the increase in revolutionary new treatments for skin care, patients no longer need to face the surgeon's scalpel to remove unwanted lines and wrinkles.

Dermal fillers offer an alternative to a surgical facelift while providing a more natural result. Procedures are quick with little or no pain and minimal side effects.

But one trait affecting both men and women reaching their 40's, are the subtle and not so welcome changes to their face.

Once defined jaw lines become slack and blur into jowls, while loose skin around the eyes and nose start drooping, giving the face a haggard, gaunt or tired appearance.

Whether you've acquired a tan from a holiday in the sun or through spending long hours outdoors, as soon as you're no longer constantly exposed to the sun's rays, your tan will start to fade.

Every 30 days or so, the entire outer layers of our skin is renewed, spelling bad news for anyone who wants to hang on to their tan.

However, there are several ways of prolonging your tan which are explained in this guide.

The saying ‘you are what you eat’ is never more true than when it comes to your skin. If you’ve been eating an unhealthy diet, overindulging in junk food or drinking too much alcohol, your skin’s condition will start to suffer.

Not only will your complexion appear dull or pasty, you’ll be more prone to developing wrinkles.


Trying to brush tangles out of knotted hair is difficult and often painful. Children in particular are prone to getting their hair tangled as they're not usually too concerned over brushing it to keep it looking tidy. Brushing tangles out of tangled hair is actually quite easy when you know how.

With a little patience and the help of these tips, you'll soon wonder how you ever stressed over unruly tangles.

sunburn photo source beautylish.comThere can’t be many of us who haven’t suffered from sunburn at some stage during our lives. When we’re outside enjoying ourselves, playing sports, or bike riding perhaps, we may not bother with applying sunscreen and we're often not aware we’re burning until it’s too late.

Anyone spending time in the open air is susceptible to the damaging effects of the sun’s rays, even on cloudy days. Sunburn is extremely painful and damaging to our skin and the earlier you start treating it, the sooner you can recover and help limit any further damage.

Home Manicure Kit
In times of economic difficulties, trips to a nail salon may be seen as a non-essential luxury.  But just because someone else isn't doing your manicure, doesn't mean your nails need fall into disrepair.

Giving yourself a home manicure is simple to do. With the right tools and a little time each week, you’ll save money and keep your nails in perfect condition. Even if you've never had a manicure, it’s not too late to start.

Whitening Toothpaste
A white, sparkling smile implies youth, health and vitality. But time takes its toll on our teeth as they gradually lose their attractive brightness and become stained or discolored. However, there’s no need to put up with dingy looking teeth any longer.

There are literally hundreds of tooth whitening products available to help put that sparkle back into your smile.
