How Can I Eliminate Stretch Marks?
With a little self-maintanence, you can restore your skin’s elasticity. By following the steps bellow your skin wll be tighter, brighter,and more brillant than before.
Step 1: Drink 8-10 glasses of water per day: The first step to begin eliminating stretch marks is to work from the inside out. Drinking a sufficient amount of water is critical, because it ensures your body and tissues are properly hydrated. It also removes toxins from your body.
Step 2: Consume a Healthy Diet: By eating foods rich in essential fatty acids, such as fish, and protein and citrus rich foods like fruits, nuts and vegetables, your skin will become tighter, softer, and healthier everyday.
Step 3: The Stretch Mark Eliminating Secret: Keep your skin moisturized with vitamins and essential oils. Although, there are several lotions and creams on the market, such Palmer’s and Strivectin, I would avoid these. They contain primarily artificial ingredients, alcohol, and a little bit of Cocoa Butter or Emu Oil. This is simply not enough to prevent or remove stretch marks. You need several natural oils, butters, scar-heaing ingredients, and essential oils to attack these marks. I recommend a product that is not found in stores. Beauty 4 Ashes’ Christian Health & Beauty Company makes fabulous all-natural stretch mark products at a fraction of the cost of Strivectin. Moreover, this product is far more powerful than Strivectin because it is all-natural and does not contain artificial ingredients had counteract the effectiveness of Emu Oil by drying the skin. Trust me, I have tried everything, and after 5 kids, I know what works. Beauty 4 Ashes stretch mark creams, oils, and butters contain skin-firming, collagen rebuilding, and elasticity strengthening essential oils, vitamins, and proteins. Their stretch mark products will fade your current stretch marks into oblivian and prevent any future stretch marks from forming. Plus, these creams have an added bonus, they tighten cellulite and tone the skin. Honestly, these creams are far better than anything I found in the store. These creams and oils were created to penetrate below your outer dermis and infuse areas where stretch marks are directly forming. Check the ingredients and products out for yourself. Even do research. The main ingredient in their creams are Aloe Vera, Vitamin E, Jojoba oil, and stretch mark reducing essential oils. Their website address is www.discoverb4a.com.
As with all things, the best products are often the hardest to find, because they are less marketed, due to their effectiveness. Hopefully, I can save you from wasting a lot of time and money on those nasty stretch marks.
And remember, to prevent stretch marks, you need to keep your skin infused with rich nutrients, vitamins, and moisture. Do not forget to maintain a healthy diet and drink plenty of water. Keep lotioning!
How to care for your leather shoes

The full spectrum of caring for your leather shoes includes cleaning, conditioning, polishing and waterproofing. It may sound like a lot of work, but once the basic materials are gathered you will find that the occasional maintenance your leather shoes require is well worth it. With the proper care you can extend the life of your leather shoes by years.
Cleaning:- Perhaps the most important thing you can do to preserve the life of your leather shoes is to keep them dust-free. When small grains of dust are allowed to accumulate on leather shoes, they cut into the leather with every step you take. You don’t need anything special to wipe the dust off your leather shoes. Any dry or damp rag will do. Some people also like to use saddle soap or another leather shoe cleaner. Apply the saddle soap to the inside and outside of the shoe. Be sure to wipe off the excess with a clean, dry cloth.
Conditioning:- Over time leather shoes lose some of the natural oils that make them soft and pliable when they’re new. This is especially true of leather shoes that are stored in warm, dry climates. You may need to apply conditioner to your shoes in order to keep them in tip-top shape. You can purchase leather shoe conditioners at most shoe stores. The type of conditioner you use will largely depend on the type of leather used to make your shoes. Some companies combine a cleaning agent and conditioner in one product. Be careful not to apply too much conditioner; the conditioner should soak into the leather without leaving your shoes feeling greasy.
Polishing:- Polish not only preserves the vibrant color of your shoes, it also protects them from the elements. Polish traps moisture in the leather in dry climates and helps to keep moisture out of the leather if your shoes are caught in the rain. Cream polishes are the way to go when it comes to leather shoes. (Liquid, alcohol-based polishes tend to dry out the leather.) Rub in the polish with a cloth and then buff the shoes to make them shine.
Waterproofing:- If you decide to waterproof your leather shoes, you have two basic choices. You can either go with a beeswax polish or a waterproofing spray. The beeswax polish is actually more effective, but it may alter the appearance of the shoe. The waterproof spray is perfect for mild to moderately wet climates.
