Why Use a Handcream
We buy hand cream or hand lotion to moisturize and soften the skin. Most people using mass produced commercial hand care products will say that their hands are not as soft or conditioned as they might like….. no matter how many applications of hand cream or hand lotion that they use!
Mass produced handcreams generally are produced using petroleum based ingredients such as Petroleum, Petrolatum, Mineral Oil. Liquid Paraffin, etc.
This might be good for cars, industrial work places and machinery but they are certainly not helpful in the skincare department!
Handcream with all natural ingredients is the best for you.
Why?….because it works and you want the handcream that you buy to actually work for you day in day out.
How will that happen if you put petroleum base products on your skin. These tend to dry out the skin. Think about those things that you would imagine would soften and feed your skin.
Consider oils rich in vitamins, such as Olive Oil, Organic Thistle Oil, Almond Oil . These will be more soothing to your skin than skin drying mineral oils from the petroleum industry? For example Mineral oil (Liquid Paraffin, Petrolatum….the clue is in the word its self… PETROL…. comes from crude oil)
Handcreams with such ingredients may be much cheaper to buy but surely your hands deserve the best care they can get…there are all natural products.
Would vegetable Gylcerin be nicer to place on your skin than animal Glycerin (usually from pork or beef carcasses)?
Would real Vitamin E be better on your skin than synthetic Vitamin E?
Do you not think that all natural Essential Oils might be kinder on your skin than petroleum based mass produced artificial perfumes or Parfum.
Essential Oils will feed your skin on your skin rather than the potentially irritating your kin with petroleum based perfumes? Remember that our skin is the largest organ in our body.
If you agree then please look for hand cream that has been hand made with care and attention and not cheaply massed produced. Look for blends Essential Oils that have been blended together synergistically and which use the benefits of flowers and herbs to help heal, soothe and calm dry, rough and maybe cracked skin. You do deserve the best and it can be done with all natural products.
Also look for handcreams in glass jars and companies that have a positive recycling programme. We really do not need to add millions of empty tubes of handcream to landfill every day.
The thickness of our skin varies greatly from the eyelids (0.5mm thick) to the hands and the soles of the feet (up to 5mm thick) yet a quality all natural hand cream does provide safe nurturing healing effects on all thickness of skin.
Anousta Products manufacture a luxurious range of organic handcream made from all natural products, all of which are either manufactured or overseen by Linda Anousta at her purpose built manufacturing unit in Wimborne, Dorset, UK

Home Remedies For Wart Removal
Most people get a wart at some time in their lives, some more than others but
they aren’t often more than just a nuisance factor and aren’t generally considered
to be harmful. Although warts, which are caused by the hpv virus, don’t usually
present a serious health hazard and can sometimes clear up by themselves over
time, nevertheless they are rather unsightly and more and more people are
turning to quick and easy treatments to get rid of warts. There is actually no
pressing need to treat warts if they aren’t causing any problems and often the
search for a remedy stems purely from cosmetic reasons. For some this may
represent a major advance in increasing their self esteem.
Removing warts by freezing them is a popular treatment and many health
practitioners are skilled at it. This kind of wart removal can even be done at
home using products purchased online or over the counter.
The basis of this type of medication is either a spray containing liquid nitrogen or
an application of salicylic acid. There are a variety of lotions and other products
like specially impregnated plasters on the market that contain salicylic acid or
thes may be prescribed by your doctor. These need to be applied regularly and
over a number of weeks, up to 12, as the acid gradually burns away the wart
together with your help and a bit of regular abrasion. You will need to make sure
you don’t let the acid come near to or touch your face which is more sensitive
than other areas of the body and could scar more easily. It is a good idea to
protect the surrounding skin by rubbing in some vaseline before you apply the
acid treatment.
Freezing with liquid nitrogen is a slightly quicker option, taking up to 2 months
rather than the 3 it takes with the salicylic option. Usually a small blister will
develop after applying the liquid nitrogen spray and there may be some minimal
scarring. Some people find this method of treatment quicker but a little more
painful.
If neither of these solutions appeal there are other treatments and home remedies
available such as the popular ‘duct tape’ method, hypnosis, aloe vera and even
banana peel! Please bear in mind that home remedies for wart removal are not
always guaranteed, because what works for someone else does not always mean
it will also work for you. However, with the great variety of home remedies
available to choose from, you are quite likely to find at least one remedy that
suits you and succesfully gets rid of your warts.

Why do lips get drier when you use some lip salves?
Well, most lip salves in the shops are made with petrolatum/Liquid Paraffin or soft paraffin and this makes skin dry.
If you take a look at some of the lip salve ingredients it reads usually something like the following:
Petrolatum, Paraffin, Paraffinum Liquidium Lanolin, and another 2-3 lines of ingredients followed by a long list of "Parbens" preservatives to follow.
There can be up to 4 lines or more of ingredients in one small lip salve!
Compare that with ANOUSTA LIPSALVE.
3 or 4 ingredients
Cold pressed Almond oil, Cocoa butter and beeswax. Then maybe an essential oil such as Lemon, or Mandarin, or Ti tree is added. Four Ingredients in total.
No preservatives required.
Only 22 lip salves are made and hand poured at a time in each batch keeping batches small and fresh.
Commercial lip salves maybe purchased quite cheaply but many people find that they have one in the car, one in their jacket or handbag, one by the bed and maybe one in the kitchen and yet they still have dry, cracked lips!
It might be good for business as you keep going back and buying cheaper lipsalves/Petrolium Jelly and you think you have a bargain.
Use an ANOUSTA lip salve and feel the difference straight away. The Cocoa butter, cold pressed Almond oil, and small amount of beeswax instantly feed the skin, softening and soothing and within a day or 2 you hardly need your lip salve hardly at all.
Your Anousta lip salve lasts ages and does what it is supposed to do, protect your lips and keep them from cracking. You can use them under lipstick too!
You have the pleasure of tasting the essential oils of either Mandarin, Lemon, or Ti tree as these gently flavour the lip salve and taste natural, not a ghastly chemical taste as found in some commercial lip salves!
Take a commercial lip salve, remove the lid and run it along the back of your hand. You will have a strip of " grease" along the back of your hand.
Now take an ANOUSTA lip salve and run it alongside that greasy strip and compare the difference between the Paraffin based lip salve and the ANOUSTA lip salve. One sits on the skin and feels " tacky" and greasy and the ANOUSTA lip salve sinks in to the skin and feeds the lips making the lips soft, plump and moist. What a difference! See further details of our lipsalves at www.anousta.co.uk
The unscented lip salve is best on very sore and cracked lips to start with and as the soreness fades, you can try a scented one if desired. Ti Tree is best to use on cold sores. Wipe the lip salve on the lips, avoiding the cold sore. Finally apply to the cold sore itself and not the surrounding lip area, and then wipe the tip of the lip salve clean and it is ready to use the next time.
Try one of these lip salves and feel the difference!!

Women spend hundreds of millions of dollars on expensive miracle skincare products, but great looking skin does not have to be expensive!
The secret of beautiful skin is simply concentrating on both the inside and outside and this does not have to be expensive.
Protection from the outside
Harmful UV rays are far and away the biggest cause of skin damage and the advice when choosing a day cream is to make sure that is SPF 15.
In the evening use any cream you feel suits your skin type were all different, but don’t spend a lot of money, all you need to do is keep the skin hydrated.
There is no point in moisturizing your skin and then let the suns rays destroy it.
Everyday prevention is definitely better than cure. On the subject of cure, all the creams that claim to repair damage are simply pedalling to vanity - They don’t.
The myth of beautiful skin
A moisturizer can keep the skin hydrated and with SPF protect it and that’s all.
Its common sense, however many women fall for the hundreds of millions of year advertising campaigns that claim to give them a quick miracle and end up disappointed.
The real secret of beautiful skin is protection from the outside and nourishment from within - Combine the two and you will have beautiful skin.
Here are some great foods to include in your diet for radiant skin.
Drink lots of water
Two liters of water a day should be drunk this helps keep the skin hydrated and flush away toxins from the body
Eat vegetables & Fruit
Eat 2 - 3 portions of vegetables for lots of nutrients for the skin,
The best ones are below, but really any vegetable or fruit is good and in terms of vegetables try and eat them raw if you can.
Sweet potatoes tomatoes and spinach
For three important antioxidants
Beta-carotene is present in sweet potatoes, lycopene in tomatoes and lutein in spinach.
They enter the skin and help reflect harmful UV rays and act as a permanent sunscreen.
Cherries, blueberries, blackberries, grapes
Contain anthocyanins an antioxidant that keeps the skin supplied with nutrients through the blood vessels that lead into the face.
Oily fish
As we all know oily fish are a great source of protein to regenerate collagen and elastin, as well as omega 3 oils, these are essential to keep the skin both subtle and hydrated.
Good sources include: Salmon, mackerel, herrings and sardines.
Crab, sardines, lean beef and wheat germ
A good source of copper, a trace element that is essential for the making of melanin, the pigment in the skin that helps to absorb harmful UV rays from the sun.
It also helps fight age spots which are the most obvious sign of skin aging.
Soya milk, lentils, bean sprouts, yogurt & wholegrain cereals
These contain plant oestrogens, which help make lubricating oils and collagen in the skin for a healthier complexion. They also repair collagen and elastin, which slow down the thinning of the skin and the formation of fine lines which most women fear!
Oats
Contain the trace element silic acid, which is used to make the spongy cells that lie between collagen and elastin fibers. This makes the skin full and plump and by consequence slows down the formation of fine lines.
Whole meal pitta, gogi berries & muesli
Pitta contains ferulic acid, berries contain vitamin c, muesli contains vitamin E. These are great antiaging vitamins
Vitamin C and e are great for fighting harmful UV rays and gogi berries have 15 times more vitamin C than an orange gram for gram.
