The face is of utmost importance in skin care. Facial skin care involves several aspects like care of the general facial skin (the cheek and the forehead), care of the eye-region (puffy eyes) and care of the lips (because lips have specially sensitive skin). A facial skin is generally divided into two broad regions by dermatologists. The first region or the T region encompasses the forehead, the nose bridge, the lips and the chin below the lips. The cheeks and the region beneath the eyes comprise the other main region of the facial skin.The significance of such differentiation in facial skin care regions in most evident in those with a combination skin type. A combination skin type is one of the five classifications of skin types of a face. The other four types are normal skin, dry skin, oily skin and sensitive skin. In a combination skin type, generally the T region is oily and the other region is drier and less oily. The preliminary aspects of a facial care are outlined below.* Cleansing: The skin of the face should be clean. Since face is most exposed to the weather so cleansing is a very necessary part of a facial skin care schedule. Face cleansing is usually done with face packs and cleansing milks. The face packs and the cleansing milks of the facial care can be of both cosmetic and organic origin. The skin being an extremely sensitive canvas, it actually depends upon the person to decide what type of face pack will work best for the skin. Milk is an ideal example of a fulfilling facial care cleansing ingredient. However, while cleansing it is important not to over-cleanse the skin. This is because excess cleansing can even clean away the natural oil secretions that help to naturally moisturize the skin.* Exfoliating and scrubbing: Since the facial skin is always generating a certain amount of dead cells, so exfoliating and scrubbing ensures that the skin is free from the roughness that the dead cells can cause. Face scrubs with tiny grains are more effective as they are more alike the natural grain of the face. Face scrubs with bigger grains can scrub away more than just the top layer of dead cells. Organic options like a half teaspoon of fine grained sugar and flour thrash also act as good scrubbers and are of considerable importance in facial skin care.* Moisturizing and sunscreen: moisturizing the skin is important in facial skin care whether you have normal, oily, dry, combination or sensitive skin. Water is a basic ingredient of causing softness in the skin and moisturizers (cosmetic and herbal) helps to retain this moisture onto the face. Repeated splashing of water on the skin, especially after an exposure to pollution and dirt, ensures that these harmful elements do not get the time of settling down on the facial skin. Sunscreen is an equally important aspect in facial care. Sunscreens help by screening away the harmful UVA and the UVB rays of the direct sunlight.Xtend-Life offers a variety of facial skin care products in both the men’s skincare and women’s skincare categories. The special ingredient Cynergy TK used in all the xtend-life products make the products suitable for all skin types and is especially suitable in fighting the wrinkle lines on the face. Cynergy TK works in synchrony with other active skin care ingredients, like the potent nano-antioxidant Nanobelle Q 10 to make the skin feel younger and fresher.Also, the Xtend-Life anti-wrinkle products has another special organic component called Phytessence Wakame, which is an extract of a specific Japanese Sea kelp. This component inhibits the harmful enzyme hyalurinidase and boosts the generation of hyaluronic acid in the skin to its adequate limits. This assists in making the skin much more younger.The facial skincare products in the women’s category are Age Defense active day cream, Whitening day cream, Restorative night cream, the Eye Contour Serum and the two types of cleansing and moisturizing masks. The deep Active Hydrating Mask and the Deep Active Cleansing masks are available in the men’s category as well.

Shoe Repairs And Several Other Things When I Was 7
Shoe Repairs And Several Other Things When I Was 7
My Dad repaired most of our shoes believe it or not, I can hardly believe it myself now. With 7 pairs of shoes always needing repairs I think he was quite clever to learn how to “Keep us in shoe Leather” to coin a phrase!
He bought several different sizes of cast iron cobbler’s “lasts”. Last, the old English “Laest” meaning footprint. Lasts were holding devices shaped like a human foot. I have no idea where he would have bought the shoe leather. Only that it was a beautiful creamy, shiny colour and the smell was lovely.
But I do remember our shoes turned upside down on and fitted into these lasts, my Dad cutting the leather around the shape of the shoe, and then hammering nails, into the leather shape. Sometimes we’d feel one or 2 of those nails poking through the insides of our shoes, but our dad always fixed it.
Hiking and Swimming Galas
Dad was a very outdoorsy type, unlike my mother, who was probably too busy indoors. She also enjoyed the peace and quiet when he took us off for the day!
Anyway, he often took us hiking in the mountains where we’d have a picnic of sandwiches and flasks of tea. And more often than not we went by steam train.
We loved poking our heads out of the window until our eyes hurt like mad from a blast of soot blowing back from the engine. But sore, bloodshot eyes never dampened our enthusiasm.
Dad was an avid swimmer and water polo player, and he used to take us to swimming galas, as they were called back then. He often took part in these galas. And again we always travelled by steam train.
Rowing Over To Ireland’s Eye
That’s what we did back then, we had to go by rowboat, the only way to get to Ireland’s eye, which is 15 minutes from mainland Howth. From there we could see Malahide, Lambay Island and Howth Head of course. These days you can take a Round Trip Cruise on a small cruise ship!
But we thoroughly enjoyed rowing and once there we couldn’t wait to climb the rocks, and have a swim. We picnicked and watched the friendly seals doing their thing and showing off.
Not to mention all kinds of birdlife including the Puffin.The Martello Tower was also interesting but a bit dangerous to attempt entering. I’m getting lost in the past as I write, and have to drag myself back to the present.
Fun Outings with The camera Club
Dad was also a very keen amateur photographer, and was a member of a camera Club. There were many Sunday photography outings and along with us came other kids of the members of the club.
And we always had great fun while the adults busied themselves taking photos of everything and anything, it seemed to us. Dad was so serious about his photography that he set up a dark room where he developed and printed his photographs.
All black and white at the time. He and his camera club entered many of their favourites in exhibitions throughout Europe. I’m quite proud to say that many cups and medals were won by Dad. They have been shared amongst all his grandchildren which I find quite special.
He liked taking portraits of us kids too, mostly when we were in a state of untidiness, usually during play. Dad always preferred the natural look of messy hair and clothes in the photos of his children.
Commercial Truck Financing – How is the System Structured?
First there are the captive finance companies. Think of them as the financing arms of all the major manufactures. They exist solely to provide financing to the public in an effort to sell their trucks. In the past they have been somewhat liberal in their underwriting criteria and like the mortgage industry perhaps too liberal. This relaxed underwriting of the past has caused serious defaults today. This has resulted in a subsequent tightening of credit. The end result is the selling of less trucks and trailers; customers have a harder time getting financing. Nonetheless, the captive financing company will always be part of the commercial truck financing game.Second are the independent financing companies. They are not tied to the manufactures in any way. They exist to make a profit from financing commercial trucks and other equipment. They can be a welcome alternatives for several reasons. First they can be someone to turn to if a good credit customer is “tapped out” with the captives. This means they have already financed trucks with the captive financing companies and they don’t want to do anymore for the customer (at least for now). These “A” credit sources are competitive on rate with the captives and, using different independent sources, a customer can finance an unlimited number of trucks. Independents are great for other reasons too. Say a customer wants a TRAC lease with different parameters than what the captives are offering. They can search for an independent that can tailor a TRAC lease for that customer. This is invaluable for the more sophisticated customer that has tax structure as their main objective. Here’s another one, we have customers calling us all the time that may only work nine months out of the year. They need financing that can offer skip payments. This way the customer can make nine payments a year instead of twelve; taking three months off of making their payments. One last one that hits home with us, the customer with bad credit. A captive financing company generally works only with people with good credit. For the customer with bad credit, their choices are limited. Thanks to independent financing companies (like ours) that specialize in customer with bad credit; these customers can get the financing they need to start or grow their business. Think of independent financing companies as offering financing products that can accommodate almost any need.The third financing arm for commercial truck financing is the in-house financing program. Usually offered by the smaller vendor, in-house financing offers benefits for both dealer and customer. By offering financing in-house the dealer is able to move more inventory than if he didn’t. This is important because a smaller dealer doesn’t always have a captive finance program. And with credit tightening up the independent financing companies are becoming less important. The dealer can act like an independent financing company by offering all the same products while keeping the benefits of earning interest on the trucks they sell. The bad side, of course, is they also suffer in the case of defaults where the customer stops making payments. The benefits to the customer is they have a one stop shop where they can finance a truck at the same place they are purchasing it from. Downside is they are limited to their inventory.This information will help you become a more educated consumer. By know who the players are you can better approach how to finance that commercial vehicle. Good luck!
