MONDAY MANI

CARING FOR SENIORS

What does a senior lady have to contend with as they age and still want to pamper their hands and feet nails? As we age, our skin, hair and nails lose their natural moisture. We must replenish that moisture as best we can by using water and oil to maintain a balance. Vaseline is not the answer but oils that are close to our physical composition or sebum. Sebum is an oily substance produced in the sebaceous glands. It mixes with fat molecules, called lipids, to form a protective coating on the skin’s surface. These lipids help hydrate the skin and protect it from potentially harmful pathogens, such as bacteria and fungi.

The oils that are close to our sebaceous makeup are castor oil and jojoba oil. These two oils can help maintain the moisture levels needed for the skin’s integrity as we age. Formula used:

1 Tbsp Castor Oil(cold pressed)

1 Tbsp Jojoba Oil

1 Tbsp Aloe Vera(pure, no additives) Moisture

Massage this formula into hands and feet. Play close attention to the cuticles. Use daily and hydrated skin will be the result.

SUNDAY SPIRITUAL

THE WHY OF CHRIST-MAS

The two most important days in a man’s life are the day he was born and the day he finds out why.” ~~Mark Twain

Some of us know the story of The Christ child. Some of us know why He was born and why He had to die. The “Man” died for me. He is a baby no more, but now a King.

MONDAY MANI

This glamour is over the top!

Who decided this is fashionable and OK for the masses? What is the cost of repair? What is the cost of my nail beds? What am I willing to pay for pain and suffering? What are my daily work-life expectations? WHY?

WHY??

While this might seem shocking, perhaps the most surprising reaction has been the thinly veiled snobbery that acrylics have elicited. The likes of Kylie Jenner, contestants in the latest series of Love Island and most notably, Cardi B, might have popularized acrylic nails to the masses in recent years. Who has the means to not work and damage her nail beds. But less than favorable stereotypes of them have continued to persist. β€˜Common’, β€˜cheap’ and β€˜tacky’ are just a few preconceptions that women who wear them are often branded. People will often asked those who wear glamorous nails, ‘…how do they get anything done, for one, or even how the wipe after going to the toilet.’ I’m sure you might have questions as well, I know I do. I have one, ‘Do they use tampons?’ Am just asking…
