How To Get Soft Lips

Image
     Lips are really quite special. We use them to talk, feel, eat, kiss and smile. They are a symbol of beauty and sensuality. That’s why caring for them is so important. Here are our tips for velvety-soft lips: 1. REMOVE EXCESS SKIN CELLS: Massage your lips twice a week with a soft toothbrush and lukewarm water or a homemade scrub. 2. DO NOT CHEW ON YOUR LIPS: This dries out the sensitive skin. 3. AVOID TOO SALTY FOOD: Crisps and snack foods unnecessarily dry out the lips. 4. DON’T FORGET TO CARE FOR YOUR LIPS: The skin on our lips is so soft and thin that the blood vessels can be seen through it. That’s what gives our lips their red colour. Our lips don’t have any sebum or sweat glands, which are responsible for supplying our skin with oil and moisture. And the corneal layer, which protects our skin from harmful environmental influences, is very thin on our lips, as well. Our lips are therefore dependent on care and protection from the outside. Lip balm is the secret i...

5 major health benefits of sex

Sex has many benefits for mental and physical health. South_agency/Getty Images The benefits of sex include reduced stress and anxiety, increased libido, better quality sleep, improved immune system, and a lower risk of heart disease.  A healthy sex life can have many short-term and long-term benefits, whether you have sex with a partner or masturbate.  A positive sex life can do wonders for your health. And finding what a healthy sex life looks like for you is about understanding what brings you satisfaction.  "Most of what we focus on is that sexual health and intimacy is based on consent, honesty, and mutual pleasure," says Barb Depree, MD and founder of MiddlesexMD. "If they're feeling respected and fulfilled it's going to be healthy for them." Moreover, you don't need to have sex with a partner to find these benefits — solo sex, or masturbation, can also reduce stress and improve overall health.  So whether by yourself or with a partner, here are fi...

Music Is the Food of Soul

Image
It has been said that music is the language of feeling and of passion, as words are the language of reason. Now the nature of man consists in this, that his will strives, is satisfied and strives anew, and so on forever. Indeed, his happiness and well-being consist simply in the quick transition from wish to satisfaction, and from satisfaction to a new wish. For the absence of satisfaction is suffering, the empty longing for a new wish, languor, ennui. And corresponding to this, the nature of melody is a constant digression and deviation from the keynote in a thousand ways, not only to the harmonious intervals to the third and dominant, but to every tone, to the dissonant sevenths and to the superfluous degrees; yet there always follows a constant return to the keynote. In all these deviations melody expresses the multifarious efforts of will, but always its satisfaction also by the final return to an harmonious interval, and still more, to the keynote. The composition of melody, the d...

Alcohol use: Weighing risks and benefits

Image
Moderate alcohol use has possible health benefits, but it's not risk-free. By Mayo Clinic Staff Understanding the risks and any poss ible health benefits of alcohol often seems confusing; that's understandable, because the evidence for moderate alcohol use in healthy adults isn't certain. Researchers know surprisingly little about the risks or benefits of moderate alcohol use in healthy adults. Almost all studies of lifestyle, including diet, exercise, caffeine, and alcohol, rely on patient recall and truthful reporting of one's habits over many years. These studies may indicate that two things may be associated with one another, but not necessarily that one causes the other. It may be that adults who are in good health engage in more social activities and enjoy moderate amounts of alcohol, but that the alcohol has nothing to do with making them healthier. Any potential benefits of alcohol are relatively small and may not apply to all individuals. In fact, the latest di...
