Tips To Reduce Redness On Cheeks

By tehreem | November 29, 2008

Redness on the cheeks can often be uncomfortable and often embarrassing. Some people are born with a “peaches and cream” complexion which means that their natural skin tone contrasts heavily with the blood vessels in the face – causing a more prominent redness.

However, there are plenty of ways to avoid or significantly reduce the redness on your cheeks by following these 10 simple yet effective tips.

They work because I tried them all myself and many people who I have spoken to who also suffer from facial redness have also tried these techniques out and would agree.

1. Exercise daily for at least 30 mins
Exercise is a proven method to regulate the blood pressure and flow in our bodies along with a reduction in stress levels which can also lead to aggravated redness in the cheeks. It also helps to eliminate excess unused energy which can also trigger blushing and facial redness.

2. Drink plenty of water
This works for me, it helps to keep the general body temperature down and is something anxiety sufferers are told to do as part of their recovery plan. Try to drink at least a few pints a day or more if you can. I know it’s not glamorous but hey, it really does help.

3. Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is a really good way to relax and control our body and mind in one. If you can train your mind and body to act and react in an appropriate way, you will certainly notice a reduction in the severity of blushing, redness and even sweating among many other similar problems.

4. Relaxation in general
Giving you time to relax each day will work wonders for your blood pressure, stress levels and general health. Having a generally red face doesn’t mean you are unhealthy but if you find that your redness comes and goes often it could be a sign that your body isn’t happy with the way you’re driving it. Try it.

5. Reduce stress
Again, reducing stress via all the previous points can be detrimental to the reduction of redness in your face, the anxiety that surrounds it and the likelihood that it will continue to get worse.

Tiffany & Co.Cuts Forecast after Q3 Luxury Jewelry Sales Fall

By tehreem | November 27, 2008

Tiffany & Co., the world’s second largest luxury jewelry retailer, slashed its annual forecast after third quarter profit fell and jewelry sales dropped for the first time in almost seven years amid the global financial crisis, Bloomberg reported.

US jewelry sales at stores open at least a year worsened in November from October and may fall at most 35% in the fourth quarter, CFO James Fernandez said.

The fine jewelry retailer suspended share buybacks and said it would reduce capital spending, slow store openings and cut staff as consumers pull back on discretionary purchases amid sinking stock and home values.

“People will focus on the guidance,” David Schick, an analyst with Stifel Nicolaus & Co., said in an interview with Bloomberg. “What they said, which was most important, was that November continued to slip.

Things in luxury spending are very bad now. The question is, will they get better in February or later?” The Baltimore-based Schick recommends investors hold the shares.

How to Apply Blush for Different Face Shapes

By tehreem | November 25, 2008

Blush Application Tip One: Oval Face

This face type typically does not need any contouring at all since the natural slope of the face already provides a perfect plane to apply blush. For a natural look, apply blush onto the apples of your cheeks for a flushed, healthy glow. If you are going out for a night on the town, add slightly more blush to the bridge of your nose for extra color.

Blush Application Tip One: Square Face

For this face shape, soften the angles of cheeks by concentrating the brighter color of the blush on the apples of the cheeks, then sweep the color straight out towards your temples. This will give your face a natural lift. If you want to round the corners of your jawline, lightly dust some blush from your chin to just below your ears.

Blush Application Tip One: Round Face

Start applying blush to the area just above the apples of your cheeks and slightly blend forward to thin the face. Make sure not to get blush too close to your nose; otherwise, the extra color will highlight the rounded area of the cheeks. Next, dust the contour shade just below the cheekbone down to the jawline and blend the color so it looks natural.
