Many people, to save time and quickly dismiss the dirt, prefers taking a shower rather than taking a long bath. Thanks to the possibility of changing water temperature during the shower (which is recommended by doctors), it stimulates blood circulation, thereby strengthening the immune system. While cleansing the skin, it is worth remembering that some parts of the body require special care: the palms accumulate most bacteria, hence they require regular disinfection, on the face, as in a mirror, all the problems of the body are reflected, and proper care for the feet skin can provide a feeling of comfort (neutral smell, soft skin, absence of disease) throughout the day.

Hands - as a rule, hands have the first contact with an object or another person. Therefore, disease-carrying bacteria accumulate on our hannds. However, hand hygiene can be ensured even in the absence of running water, using waterless soap. One drop of this liquid disinfects the whole hands while hydrating it. Due to the basis weight and comfort, this product is invaluable during trips, a picnic or a concert: http://bcosmetics.com/pl/Unicorno/Produkty/Mydlo-bez-wody.

Face - the skin is a reflection of the whole organism. Facial skin should be taken care of by preparations of formulations based on plant extracts that provide minerals and protein necessary for the regeneration of cells. One such a product is Unicorno make-up remover (http://bcosmetics.com/pl/Unicorno/Produkty/Mleczko-do-demakijazu), which, thanks to the content of grape seed oil and the calendula extract, gently cleanses and regenerates the skin before bedtime.

Feet - the burden of the body during walking lies with them. After a day they may be overtired. To refresh them, you might want to reach for preparations containing menthol, which provides the skin with cleansing and the feeling of coolness: http://bcosmetics.com/pl/Unicorno/Produkty/Balsam-do-stop. To get the maximum care, the product must be massaged into the skin. This will stimulate the nerve bundles, which are transmitters of stimuli to individual body zones and ensure proper blood circulation.

When selecting body cleansing cosmetics, you should bet on the ones that cleanse and do not damage the hydrolipid coat of the skin, which is a natural protective barrier: the more intense the smell, frothiness and color of the product, the more increases the risk of allergies (the more the lipid coat is damaged, the more the skin is irritated). Shower gels contain mild cleaning substances (such as empigen), which eliminate the risk of irritation: http://bcosmetics.com/pl/Unicorno/Produkty/Zel-pod-prysznic.

The skin consists of three overlapping layers: subcutaneous tissue, dermis and epidermis. The horny layer plays a very important role in the process of moisturizing. It contains cells made from creatine of a "tile" structure, called corneocytes. The space between them is filled by a mixture of fatty acids. All these elements make up the skin's protective barrier. Its tight construction slows down the diffusion of water from the dermis, keeping it inside.

Creams and lotions are designed to pass valuable substances such as vitamins, proteins and minerals into the body, while maintaining an integrity of protective barriers. These properties are offered by membrane creams. Products containing allantoin, which causes the separation of cells, are useful in care. This allows the skin to be able to regenerate efficiently http://bcosmetics.com/pl/Unicorno/Produkty/Balsam-do-ciala/.

When the water content in the body is less than 10%, the skin is dry, becomes rough and cracked. In turn, too intense skin hydration can lead to swelling of its cells and result in the loss of barrier properties of the horny layer. To prevent this, our body needs substances that can "enter" the skin and bond the water in the body. These include, inter alia, UREA and hyaluronic acid, often derived from plants, which moisturize well and inhibit water loss from the body (TEWL).

The skin regenerates itself through the production of new cells every day. By the absorption of nutrients from blood, formed while burning carbohydrates, it enables the production of substances necessary for rebuilding. Vitality lacking skin should be refresh, inter alia, through the use of exfoliation and cosmetic products containing dimethicone, allantoin and d-panthenol. (e.g. after-shave balm: http://bcosmetics.com/pl/Unicorno/Produkty/Balsam-po-goleniu/). What is more, essential elements of skin regeneration are also vitamin A, B, C, D and E and minerals such as zinc, iron and amino acids.

Amino acids, obtained in the process of protein digestion, are transported through the bloodstream into the cells of the skin. Their properties allow cells to rebuild fibrous collagen and horny structures of the skin. Vitamin C helps building collagen, vitamin E, in turn, protects and accelerates tissue regeneration.

The skin helps maintain the body temperature at a constant level, protects the body against mechanical and chemical damages as well as micro-organisms and UV rays. Our lifestyle does not always help ensure proper care. To prevent related problems, we should provide our skin with care based on products with soothing properties which will smooth away irritation caused by hair removal or shaving. Such mini-wounds and irritation must be disinfected with the use of cosmetics containing no alcohol, which dry the skin and accelerate the aging process.

All in all, any care product should, through a proper formula, ensure the regeneration of the skin.

Vitamins play a key role in moisturizing and protecting of the skin. To properly select a cream product, you might want to know what properties the vitamins occurring in care products have.

Vitamin A is well-known as retinol. It improves skin elasticity, reducing the synthesis of enzymes that cause degradation of collagen in the skin. It has moisturizing properties.

Vitamin E thanks to strong oxidizing properties, protects cell membrane lipids against free radicals. It accelerates recovery, and therefore is recommended primarily for skin damaged by external factors.

Vitamin C is an activator of collagen synthesis. It also improves skin elasticity and protects against sunlight.

Provitamin B5 (D-panthenol) stimulates cell division, accelerates skin regeneration. It is very quickly absorbed, even by hair and nails, preventing excessive water loss from the body.

Anti-wrinkle treatment As we get older, our skin loses its elasticity, it becomes dry and rough. Mimic wrinkles appear between 25 and 30 years of age. These are the effect of elasticity impairment, caused by the decrease in production of natural collagen. This leads to static wrinkles, which deepen as the years go by.

The influence of UV radiation, unhealthy life-style and improper care allows free radicals to do damages in the organism. As we get older, more and more free radicals occur. Cosmetics, which contain antioxidants, help to neutralize free radicals. Vitamin E is a strong antioxidant, by cooperating with other vitamins it is able to eliminate harmful substances from the organism. Substances such as d-panthenol and allantoin facilitate skin regeneration and ensure a young appearance: http://bcosmetics.com/pl/Tre-colori/Produkty/Balsam-do-ciala.  

Retinol is one of the most effective anti-wrinkle substances – vitamin A in its purest form. This precious resource is called the “vitamin of youth”, if used regularly, it reaches deeper layers of the skin and stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which firm the skin. Retinol reduces imperfections, such as blemishes, sun-spots or hormonal changes: http://bcosmetics.com/pl/Unicorno/Produkty/Retinol/.

Everyone has his favorite scent. This is because odors have a strong influence on the human psyche. The smell can cause associations, recall situations from the past, attract the opposite sex or emphasize the personality of a person who uses it. Selection of a smell is an individual matter of every human. A well-chosen scent complements not only our appearance, but also emphasizes character traits. It should be noted that a mismatched smell acts repulsively.

The first perfume appeared in the world in the ancient times, as time flied its form and composition changed. Composing a particular type of perfume is an extremely difficult task. In the world of perfumers to create fragrances is an art. Perfumed water (Eau de Parfum) is the most valuale, because it provides the highest concentration of essential oils. The quality of the perfume depends on substances used. The duration period of a scent on the skin is affected by the type of composition (heavy and sweet oriental notes remain on the skin much longer than light citrus scents). Every noble aroma should have three phases of activity. The first phase lasts briefly and is therefore called the business card of a smell - it is responsible for the first impressions. The second phase is the heart of the fragrance and it lasts on the skin approximately 4 hours. It is an idea, a message that a perfumer wanted to convey. The third phase is called the contrast or the carrier of odor. As to reading black letters we need a clear background, so we need a background note to bring the power of smell forward. Very often, these are sweet notes which last on the skin the longest.
