And important recommendation that I must give you is this: you should, whenever possible, avoid jewelry that has been constructed with material such as nickel. The reason for this is very simple — yet very serious — many people have an allergic reaction to the metal nickel. When it is worn next to the skin, such as when wearing rings, women’s bracelets or necklaces, it can cause a serious allergic reaction to take place. Nickel is often used as a metal in jewelry items and necklaces because it is inexpensive and also very durable — but if you want to avoid an uncomfortable skin rash or reaction I would advise you against wearing these items. When purchasing jewelry, always ask your jeweler whether the item has been constructed using nickel.

Normal Skin Care
February 23rd, 2008 — Health
So what exactly is normal skin? Basically, it’s characterized by having no apparent signs of oily or dry areas. Be aware, however, that just like the rest of your body, skin is in a constant state of change. Even women with perfect complexions go through phases of having oily or dry skin.
In reality, no one is likely to have problem-free skin forever. There is no miracle cream that will "make" your skin normal. There are, however, numerous products that can thoroughly cleanse, nourish, moisturize and protect your skin.
Here is a great Normal Skin Care regimen. Twice a day you should cleanse & tone. Once a week, after cleansing, apply a Glow or Polish to exfoliate the face (& body if you wish, also). Follow exfoliation by applying a facial Mask treatment. Check out more normal skin care tips at Fitness Beauty Spa.
