Organic Beauty And Non-Surgical Treatments

We believe that the safe and organic approach to beauty is the best one. With that being said, read on to discover a collection of tips that will help with regards to this. We will take a look at natural products and what is in them, as well as providing you with details on two of the most popular and untalked about non-surgical treatments available today.

What is in your lip balm?

Organic natural lip balm is a must if you want to ensure your lips get the vitamins and nutrients they need. Nevertheless, there are a lot of people that purchase the commercial, mass produced lip balms, which are available in all of the popular retail stores and supermarkets. If this applies to you, you may be shocked to discover what you are actually putting on your lips.

If you take a look at the ingredient list on your lip balm tube or tin, the number of different chemicals that have been used to create it will probably shock you. Commercial lip balms use synthetic waxes and oils to get their shine. Synthetic fragrance oils are used to create the scent, and petrolatum is an ingredient that is found in the vast majority of mass produced lip balms. This is often contaminated with carcinogens, as it is a waste by-product from oil extraction. Is this really the type of thing you want to be putting on your lips?

Instead, natural lip balm is the only way to ensure that your skin gets the nourishment it needs to repair the skin. You can be sure that everything you are putting on your lips is safe and has come from natural resources. Some of the most common ingredients that are found in the best natural lip balms, and other natural skin care products, include beeswax, raw honey, olive oil, avocado butter, coconut oils, and sweet almond oil.

How to tell if a soap is natural

Natural hand soap is a must; the last thing you want to do is cleanse your skin in an array of different chemicals. It is vital to know what you are putting on your skin and what benefits it offers, which is why natural soap is the only option. But, how can you be 100 per cent sure that the soap you are considering purchasing is natural?

There are various different factors you need to look out for. Firstly, you should take a look at the ingredient list, as a lot of soaps are mislabelled. There are a lot of companies that will state that their soap products are ‘natural’, but what they mean is that some natural ingredients have been used. Instead, you want to find soap that is 100 per cent natural. This is why you should take a look at the ingredient list, and if you notice anything like sodium laurelate and other chemicals, you know to look elsewhere. All natural bars of soap will contain the likes of Jojoba oil, shea butter, geranium, grapefruit, and other oils, butters, herbs, and fruits.

This will be close to the molecular structure of our natural skin oils to ensure effective treatment for blemishes and clogged pores while also guaranteeing glycerin, beneficial oils, and vitamins are easily absorbed by the skin.

What you heard of a Nefertiti lift?

The Nefertiti Lift is a form of Botox that tightens loose skin on the neck to create a sharper jawline. This creates a tighter, youthful, and more contoured appearance by redefining the lines of the jaw without surgery. It’s perfect for those with loose jowls, which you can find out more about at Sio Beauty. This treatment has become exceptionally popular as of late.

While we all have different ideas regarding what defines beauty, one thing that has long been considered attractive is a long neck with a well-defined jawline. In fact, this has been a sign of beauty since the Egyptians, which is why the procedure gets the name ‘Nefertiti Lift’, after Queen Nefertiti. The Queen of Egypt’s name literally meant ‘a beautiful woman has come’, and her stunning bone structure has long been admired.

The Nefertiti Lift is a fairly new technique, which involves the injection of Botox down the side of the neck and across the lower jawline. The careful placement of Botox results in improving the definition of the jaw. It does this by re-balancing the underlying muscles and essentially lifting the jaw and neck area.

In many cases, the jawline and neck can be neglected because people opt for facial work. If you have had facial work, the Nefertiti Lift can ensure smoother skin that blends in with the other facial treatments you have had. If the neck or jawline are loose and saggy, this can be a giveaway that you have had other treatments.

This treatment is suited to a wide assortment of people, including those that have a tendency to tense their neck, which makes the area appear more aged, as well as people that have lost weight, as this can cause a generalised sagging, and those with loose jowls, a wrinkly neck area, or a jawline that lacks definition.

If you are interested in the Nefertiti Lift, the clinic you choose should begin with a thorough consultation, so that we can talk you through the procedure and assess your jaw and neck area. This procedure typically takes around 45 minutes and the person carrying it out will use numbing cream so that you cannot feel the injections. The recovery is immediate and the aftercare period is a short one – approximately six to eight hours.

The risk level with this treatment is very low, with the only potential complications being swelling, minor bruising, and allergies. You can expect the effects of the Nefertiti Lift to last for approximately three to four months after your first treatments. Once you have had repeat treatments, the effects will last for six months, and sometimes even longer.

Did you know you can use dermal fillers to rejuvenate your hands?

Do your hands look tired? Is their wrinkled appearance getting you down? Well, there is no need to let it get to you any longer, as dermal filler is an effective way of getting rid of this problem. Hyaluronic acid, which is a main component of dermal filler, is the best hydrator for the skin, and so you can expect your hands to look smooth and youthful in no time. This is something you can be confident of when you choose a clinic with care that has performed this treatment many, many times, such as the victorian cosmetic institute.

Why choose this treatment? This treatment is ideal for those who have prominent veins on the back of their hands, have lost roundness and volume and thus their hands are appearing thin and bony, or their hands show signs of ageing, i.e. they have developed lines or wrinkles. These are all things that occur naturally with age. However, dermal fillers will rejuvenate volume and skin to give youthful results.

A good clinic will always begin the process with a consultation. This will give them the chance to assess your hands and discuss the options you have available to you. They will advise you on the best approach, they we will answer any concerns you may have while also revealing the aftercare steps that you need to follow.

Before the treatment begins, the person carrying it out will apply numbing cream to your hands in order to reduce the sensation of the needle. The procedure will then take approximately an hour, and recovery will take around two to four hours. After this, you need to follow the aftercare steps they have provided you with for a full 24 hours. There are very few risks associated with dermal fillers, but some people do experience redness, bruising, and swelling. You will notice the results of this treatment for around nine months or more. After this, you need to book another appointment for dermal fillers or your hands will go back to their pre-treated state.
