Night And Day Contact Lenses Explained

Do you love your contact lenses but hate the daily monotonous chores of inserting, removing and cleaning them?

Then the revolutionary new Focus Night and Day contacts might be just what you are looking for?

These are the first ever contact lenses that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have approved for continuous, around-the-clock use over an unprecedented 30 day period. No need to remove your contacts each and every night, then put them back in again next morning - you can leave these amazing lenses in 24/7!

Ever since contact lenses were invented eye doctors have recommended that users remove them every night to ensure that your eyes get enough oxygen and prevent you from getting eye infections.

Now, however, with the advent of the brand new Focus night and day contacts you can keep your contacts in and still get an adequate supply of oxygen to your eyes. These pioneering lenses allow six times more oxygen to pass through to your eye than regular soft disposable contact lenses - that's why you can wear them at night without fear.

That makes night and day contacts perfect for people with hectic lifestyles, business people who travel a lot, students with hectic class schedules, vacationers who don't want to be bothered with lens care can all benefit from these convenient to use lenses.

Already there are already half a million happy people wearing night and day contacts and enjoying the sheer simplicity of wearing the same pair of lenses non-stop for a whole month. After that, you can just throw the lenses out and start anew with another fresh pair for another month.

Besides the ease-of-use and convenience that the Focus night and day contacts provide, these breakthrough lenses also offer other benefits. Many people have found these contacts to be more comfortable to wear than regular soft lenses because they reduce the dryness and dehydration felt by many regular lens users.

Night and day contacts are also resistant to build up from the protein deposits that normally form, on soft contacts, from the tears and material in your eyes - this means no scratchy feeling or irritation when wearing them. In fact, a recent FDA study discovered that 90 percent of the users, who participated in the study responded, rated the comfort of the new lenses as very good to excellent.

It is no surprise, therefore, that the lenses also rated well, in the same survey, in terms of their maintenance and care - 89 percent of the participants said that the lenses rated very good to excellent when it came to taking care of them.

With reviews like that, night and day contacts sound like an win-win option for those of us who want more from our lenses, not lenses that require more from us!

Natural Hair Conditioning and BuildUp Removal

Vinegar rinses can do wonders! The acidity from the vinegar helps take away built up gook stuck to the hair such as those nasty forms of silicones found in many shampoos and conditioners today, helps breaks down excess oils, and also helps remove extra glycerin from the hair that can leave hair waxy feeling for those that use the more natural approach of soap shampoo bars. It can also actually help condition hair by gently smoothing the hair shaft making it less prone to breakage and giving it a nice shiny appearance

Either apple cider vinegar or white vinegar will do, but many seem to prefer the apple cider. Simply take a clean empty squeeze bottle or cup and dilute with water. After shampooing your hair, evenly distribute this mixture throughout your hair while rubbing it in to make sure all the hair is covered, paying special attention to the areas closer to the scalp. (Be careful not to get any in your eyes- it will sting!) You can leave this on for just a few minutes and then give your hair one more light rinse. Easy peasy! If you still use regular store bought shampoos this regimen can work wonders using vinegar rinses even once every other week, but you can do this as often as necessary. Those that use shampoo bars may use it more often- I, personally, use nothing but shampoo bars and take advantage of vinegar rinses after every wash with excellent results

As for how much to dilute the vinegar mix, I've seen and tried all sorts of combinations. Some say to only use a tablespoon of vinegar to about one quart of water, and I've seen all the way up to 1 part vinegar and 3 part water mixes recommended. I think it's really dependant on what hair type you have and what your normal hair care regimen consists of. Your best bet is to take into consideration what length your hair is to make sure you have enough liquid to fully saturate your hair and start with a tablespoon or two of vinegar. You could experiment from there until you find what your hair likes best. Sometimes I like to be creative with it and substitute water for other liquids such as juices, teas, or milks for the added nutritional benefits that it can give to your hair. The sky is the limit- have fun with it! And yes, we know vinegar does stink! However, the smell of the vinegar fades as is dries- usually taking other bad odors with it. Sometimes adding just a few drops of essential oils to your vinegar rinse can help

Another thing you could do is infuse the vinegar with different herbs or spices such as calendula petals, chamomile, lavender buds, rosemary, parsley, rose hips, etc- many times it will help deal with the temporary smell from the vinegar and all the ones I just mentioned are even excellent for encouraging hair growth. To infuse your vinegar, just take a large clean empty jar and fill to about two inches from the top with the herbs, flowers, or spices of your choice. I tend to prefer materials that have already been dried - using fresh herbs or flowers introduces moisture into the mix and could possibly start growing some unwelcomed ickiness into your mix! Then pour your vinegar into the jar approximately to about once inch from the top of the jar- the less air you have in there also discourages mold or other bacterial growth. Considering the acidity of the vinegar this is all highly unlikely, but it's always better to take the safer route! Store your jar in a dark place, preferably a warm spot, for about 4 to 8 weeks. Try to shake up the jar once a day, or at least as often as you can remember. When her time is up you can use anything from a strainer to cheesecloth to strain the herbs or other materials out of your infused vinegar and voil?- it's ready for use!

The days of bright blue eye shadow and slathered on blush are gone with the wind! If you are in desperate need of a make up freshen up, consider these hot trends in cosmetics. These latest colors, tips, and techniques are just what anyone needs to update a look or make the change into a new season. Remember that your cosmetics do have an expiration date, so keep this in mind when shopping for new make up. With each season, carefully look through your make up kit and discard any items that are outdated. This is critical, especially with eye make up that can expire and potentially cause painful infections. Also, remember not to share your make up with anyone else to prevent spread of germs and infection.

This trend only applies to eyes, lips, and nails, however, since cream and matte finishes is hot for foundations, powders, and blush. In addition to shimmer and shine, the color of eye and lip make up is quite subtle. Gone are the vibrant colors and eye popping shades of eye shadow. Instead, pale browns, ivories, grays, tans, and other natural colors are all the rage. Lip shades are also a bit more subdued, with a nude lip or a sheer pink gloss being incredibly hot.

Lipstick is out today, with lip gloss taking over the first place in purses all over the country. These lip glosses are made in every color under the sun and many mimic the appearance of lipstick with a much smoother and glossier look. For individuals looking to care for their lips and enjoy that terrific nude lip look, consider using a simple hydrating stick. The all natural brand, Bert?s Bees, produces a phenomenal product that can be applied under a gloss or used by itself.

The days of pressed powder may be numbered; as today?s hot products include cream powders that go on thick but dries sheer and ultra light. This option is great for individuals who would like a bit more coverage than pressed powder offers, but do not want to deal with the mess and hassle of using foundation. Another popular trend along this line is the cream blush, which also goes on like a cream but dries a powder. Also, cream blushes prevent that unnatural coloring that appears on many women?s cheeks.
