If you are an avid reader, or in the beauty industry, and prepared to write a review for me on the book, you can contact me to get a review copy of the book sent to you.

The next book in the series that is coming is about Nail care... keep your eye out for it!

I'm going to add an article here about organic skincare, this is not part of the book, but I figure that you might as well get some skincare information while you are here - lol!


The Natural Beauty of Organic Make Up

A growing number of women are turning to organic make up to meet their beauty needs. Awareness regarding the use of toxic chemicals and additives in standard cosmetics has caused many to embrace the natural ingredients found in organic products. 

Make up that is made of organic ingredients tends to be gentle on the skin and kind to the environment.

The cosmetics industry generates many billions of dollars each year; however standard production methods are known to be harmful to the environment. 

Not only that, toxic ingredients like parabens, fragrances, dyes, and preservatives are damaging to our skin. As a result, women have begun to look for healthier, more natural alternatives.

Mineral make up is a great choice as it is created from minerals that are found naturally in the environment. The use of plant-based ingredients makes mineral make up a great choice for all types of skin, including sensitive skin. 

The minerals in this type of make up not only nourish the skin, but they also provide some protection from the sun’s harmful rays. When it comes to mineral make up, there are organic and non-organic product lines to choose from.

Organic make up is another great option for anyone who is looking for a healthy way to bring out their natural beauty. This type of make up is not only gentle for all skin types, but it is also kind to the environment. 
The growth of the organics industry has resulted in a lot of choices when it comes to organic cosmetics. These include:

* Organic foundation
* Organic concealer
* Organic eye shadow
* Organic blush
* Organic mascara
* Organic lipstick

The benefits of purchasing organic, natural cosmetics are many. By using ingredients which occur naturally, the products are friendlier to the environment, easier on our bodies, and healthier for everyone. 

And now, purchasing organic cosmetics is easier than ever because there are many choices available online. 

Some manufacturers even offer free samples so that you can compare different product lines and choose the ones that you like best. 

Many women have discovered that bringing out their natural beauty is as easy as using organic make up or mineral make up. They don’t use harmful, toxic ingredients. 

Instead they focus on ingredients which are gentle on your skin and easy on the environment. The demand for organic products has led to the availability of organic mascara, lipstick, foundation and more. 

You can find these high quality natural cosmetics online and at your local health food or beauty supply store.

7 Ways in 7 Days to Beautiful, Healthy Hair  

 

 

 

 

Need a quick tip for making your hair look beautiful when it needs a wash?

 

If you are ever in a real hurry and you think your scalp is a bit too oily, you can take a temporary shortcut to help you out for a few hours, to make your hair look good.

 

If you have heard of dry shampoos, you know what I'm talking about.  You can also use simple baby talcum powder if you don't have the commercial spray on powder 'dry shampoo'  

 

The concept is simple, you apply a little of this powder to your hair, allow it to reach your scalp where it can soak up any excess oils, then you brush it out. Quick and simple.

There are many scenarios in life where having, and using, dry shampoo can be worthwhile. In this article I will give you some ideas of the convenience of this product as well as some pros and cons in regards to using these types of products.

1. For many of us, our days our very long. It simply isn't practical to run home after work, but before the gym, and then again before we meet our friends out for dinner and drinks. But that doesn't mean your look may not need to be freshened up a bit.

That is where the non water method for hair cleaning can come in so handy. The products themselves are light weight and very transportable so you can keep some in a purse, briefcase or gym bag.

Since you don't need water, all you need to do to make the most out of this product is to duck into the nearest rest room and spend a few minutes and suddenly, your look is fresh and clean.

2. One of the biggest pros, is what has been listed in the point above: convenience. You don't have to invest time to washing your hair. Of course, most of us (women at least) know it's not the washing that takes the time it's the drying and styling afterwards that is so time consuming.

So, being able to get the "just washed hair" look without the investment of time is a really nice time saver during the day. That is the biggest pro about this product.

3. The biggest con is the fact that this is only a short term fix. It just isn't the same as actually washing your hair. It is a great stop gap until you have more time, but it won't replace your daily or twice daily shampoo's.

There can also be the argument that your hair isn't really clean after a dry shampoo even though it may look and smell clean.

Some people may have a problem with this. They may prefer to invest the time and know that their hair is actually clean as opposed to just "freshened".

One other point in the "con" column is the fact that you need to be careful about allergies to a certain product that may result in a rash or sensitive area on the scalp.

Also, this product is a case of more may not be better. If you apply too much you may just look worse. It may leave a dusty residue on your hair or scalp that may make your hair look even dirtier than it did before you started!

Using dry shampoo can be a helpful time saver between shampoos but I would recommend that you try a few brands first to see which ones you  like and make sure they don't irritate your scalp. Also, knowing how much to use is important so you may want to give it a dry run at home where you can rinse it out if you need to.

 

NOTE:  This tip has nothing at all to do with the content of the book I have just written.... it is just a quick hair tip I posted to the blog today in case you found it useful.

New Series of Health and Beauty books coming your way soon!

I'm so pleased about the concept of a new series of health and beauty books that I plan to write and publish throughout 2013!

There are so many subjects that people need good sense information and tips about, from how to have clear skin, to what it takes for beautiful hair, to how to use Aromatherapy, or general health and fitness tips.

So I'm going to be publishing hopefully 24 books this year, of around 50+ pages (about 90 on Kindle) that will answer your questions without any trendy or dangerous nonsense that some people will write.

Can't wait to get this happening, I'll let you know as soon as the first two get loaded to Amazon for you to check out.

In the meantime remember to check out the Raw Food Diet and the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome books that I already have at Amazon, and of course see what new health content I have loaded onto http://learn-how-to-do-it.com  including some free health guides you can download from there!

The Raw Food Diet Made Simple

For a couple of years now I have been slowly transitioning to a raw food diet.

I became an eclectic vegetarian at the 'turn of the century'... 2000 ... and have enjoyed that change in eating, and am happy to not eat anything with a face.

But after experiencing a bad bout of Thyroid problems, I put on weight that I could not shift with my usual nutritional therapy plan that had worked so well for decades to keep me fit and slim.

Then I happened to read the "80-10-10" book, that is based on the essential balance required in nutrition (ensuring you have 10% fats and 10% proteins in your daily diet) and how to achieve it when eating raw food only.

It is a very restrictive food plan and menu, but I pretty much stuck to it for about 6 weeks - and I managed to drop 9k very comfortably, without exercising, as rheumatoid arthritis makes exercise a bit tricky for me.

I however found it too hard to sacrifice my cup of tea (with raw goat milk) or my simple cheese sandwich (or at least a sliver of cheese in my lettuce roll up for dinner!)

And Autumn and Winter seasons proved to be a terrible challenge for me, as the sweet sun-ripened fruits were replaced by imported cardboard tasting produce.

So I decided to use these problems as a challenge to find the solutions that worked for me in my transition, and share it in a book.

The result is my new book being edited now, that I'm using myself in my daily process of becoming a 'raw foodie' for life. 

"The Raw Food Diet Made Simple - Transitioning to a Raw Food Plan for Better Health, Vibrant Energy, and Weight Loss"

 

Later in the new year I'll also publish it as one of my how to books (maybe with some bonuses) on my main site here: http://www.learn-how-to-do-it.com

"How to Beat Chronic Fatigue Syndrome...and get your life back!" Available on Amazon now

Well, it took me a bit longer than I expected to get the book completed, but Warren and I have finally completed the final version of the book, and its been uploaded to Amazon, so you should be able to go get your copy of "How to Beat Chronic Fatigue Syndrome...and get your life back!" in both Kindle and printed book version, in the next couple of days.

On a personal note, the past few months have been particularly challenging for me, as with my full-time caring for my Dad during and after his surgery crisis during April, May, June resulted in my relapsing into the worst CFS I had experienced in 20 years!

So I'm glad to report that I used this latest experience to review in practice  the therapies we have outlined in the book, and they work as well as ever.

As a result of following the information we have featured in the book, I created a new CFS management plan, allowing for my urgent need of 'crisis management' and I have been following that plan for the past 90 days and feel almost back to normal, thank goodness.

I'm looking forward to celebrating Christmas with my Dad, both of us back in good health, and gearing up for a truly dynamic 2013!

This is the book cover for Vol#1

and we are working on Vol#2 now, about how to create a CFS Diet with SuperFoods and Nutritional Supplements.

I have also created my Amazon Author profile here, so you can also check there for updates on the latest books  http://www.amazon.com/-/e/B00AO4QX6C

Working on my CFS book again

I'm so excited about getting back to work on my Chronic Fatigue Syndrome cures book.

Warren Tattersall has agreed to edit the draft and add his invaluable expertise on the subject, and it looks like he might well be writing enough to double up the book!

I can assure you that with my decades of experience in trying everything to cope with CFS and his experience as a nutritional consultant helping his clients (and himself) to deal with CFS, this book is going to be a MASSIVE help to anyone learning about this disease!

Look out for my next updates on the book development - you will be glad you did!

Helene 

Warren Tattersall will be co-authoring the CFS cures book with me!
