Health and Beauty Tip -- Use Sunscreen ...
... on your hands! Even when applying your own sunscreen or sunblock, it's important to apply it to your hands they way you would the rest of you. Too much exposure to sun can age them prematurely. You can use special products made for hands, or your regular sunscreen or subnblock.

"Frugality without creativity is deprivation."
Health and Beauty Tip -- Avoiding Dye Stains
To make sure no dye gets on your skin after you color your hair, rub a little shampoo along the hairline and anywhere else the dye has touched your skin right before rinsing it out. This will lessen any staining without affecting the color of the dye.

"I cannot believe that the inscrutable universe turns on an axis of suffering; surely the strange beauty of the world must somewhere rest on pure joy!"
Health and Beauty Tip -- Overnight Undereye Treatment
Dark circles under eyes can be caused by a lack of oxygen to your skin. To combat this, combine one teaspoon of whole, plain yogurt with half a teaspoon of fast-acting baker's yeast. Apply under your eyes with a clean eyeshadow brush right before bed, and make sure to rinse it off in the morning.

Health and Beauty Tip -- Lipstick on Chapped Lips
The sort of makeup you use can actually prevent chapped lips. Use or switch to glossy lipstick, as matte has no moisturizers (and can actually dry out your lips on its own).
Quote of the Day
There are times not to flirt. When you're sick. When you're with children. When you're on the witness stand.
Health and Beauty Tip -- Sensitive Teeth
Before bed, rub a tiny bit of toothpaste along the gumline near the sensitive teeth -- you shouldn't brush or rinse afterwards.

God gave women intuition and femininity. Used properly, the combination easily jumbles the brain of any man I've ever met.
Health and Beauty Tip -- Discolored Nails
Stop discoloration on your fingernails and toenails before it happens -- always use a clear coat under your polish. It takes a little extra time, but your nails will be much better off!
Quote of the Day
Never go to bed mad. Stay up and fight.
Health and Beauty Tip -- Lower Sodium in Your Diet
There are plenty of simple ways to reduce your sodium intake in addition to foods marketed as "low-sodium." Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables (canned and even frozen ones contain high amounts of sodium), switch to lowfat dairy products, and taste your food before you put salt on -- you may not need it!
Quote of the Day
"The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity."
Health and Beauty Tip -- What Causes Bad Breath?
You already know you need to brush, floss, and yes, even brush your tongue. But antihistamines, nasal sprays, and even antidepressants, all of which dry out your mouth, can give you bad breath, too.
Quote of the Day
"What it comes down to is that anybody can win with the best horse. What makes you good is if you can take the second- or third-best horse and win."
Health and Beauty Tip -- Using Primers
Most cosmetic lines these days make "primers" to apply under your foundation. This makes your makeup last longer, and prevents oil from coming to the surface. A primer doesn't have to be expensive to work well, and it's likely your favorite brand makes it.
Quote of the Day
Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. Security does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than exposure.
