SURPRISING WAYS TO REDUCE WRINKLES

1. SLEEP ON YOUR BACK
Sleeping in certain positions night after night leads to ''sleep lines''---wrinkles that become etched into top layers of skin and don't fade once you're up.Sleeping on your side leads to wrinkles on cheeks and chin,while sleeping face down gives you a farrowed brow.To cut down on new wrinkles,sleep on your back.

 2. EAT MORE FISH LIKE SALMON
Salmon (along with other cold-water fish) is a great source of of protein,as well as one of the the body building blocks of great skin. It's also an awesome source of omega-3 fatty acids. Experts say that essentials fatty acids nourish skin and keep it plump and youthful,helping minimize wrinkles.

3. DON'T SQUINT--GET READING GLASSES!
Making the same expressions over and over--like squinting --overworks facial muscles,forming a groove beneath the skin's surface. Eventually the groove becomes a wrinkle. Keep those eyes wide: wear reading glasses if you need them. And get savvy about sunglasses,which can protect skin around the eyes from sun damage and keep you from squinting.

 4. SLATHER ON ALPHA-HYDROXY ACIDS(AHAS)
These natural acids lift away the top layer of the dead skin cells,reducing the appearance of pores,fine lines and surface wrinkles,especially around the eyes. And stronger forms of AHAS may help boost collagen production. Using AHAS can make your skin more sensitive to the sun,so wear plenty of sunscreen everyday.

5. DON'T OVER-WASH YOUR FACE
Tap water strips skin of moisture and natural oils that protect against wrinkles. Wash your face too often,and you wash away it's protection. And unless your soap contains moisturizers,use a gel or cream facial cleanser instead.

SPECIAL EDITION: PRAY OVER YOUR MARRIAGE and another love story

Dear readers,  Words are powerful. I have learnt to let most of the things I say be positive and contain a prayer. Praying God's word over your marriage is important.  Marriage is a blessing from God, but it is not always cherished the way it should be; Maybe because life gets busy, or we get distracted; Maybe because we start to take one another for granted; Or we disagree and let resentments hang on longer than they should. Hm! I was taught recently that the baggages we bring along from our past, into our marriages are a great burden as well. We take these baggages for granted but believe you me, most old baggages, are the cause of most broken marriages.  Some baggages are in the form of old girlfriends and boyfriends who are witches and wizards, or left some kind of spiritual bonding with your spouse. Some are in the form of just clingy exes. Some baggages may even just be low self esteem or extreme high expectations. When joined as ''one'', a new battle to...

''Give me a man, with whom I will serve You...'' A legendary love story

Bonjour,  I am tearing up listening to Mama Gloria Bamiloye saying something about her husband, Evangelist Mike Bamiloye. They inspired me to write this. Most of my posts so far has been on praying about your marriage and making God the centre of it.  To the singles out there, have you ever thought of communicating with God about your future partner?  Do you have expectations(specs) of whom you would like to share the rest of your life with?  Go to God in prayer and ask Him to give you what you want. The best part of God anwering your prayer is Him giving you what is actually Best for you. He knows what you need but He needs you to ask for it.  Now to today's topic; Marriage can actually take you to hell; either here on earth or after you are dead! That is why I have my slogan of, ''it is not here that matters, but in the end, before my creator" . This phrase (title for today), from Mama Gloria, shook me. It made me think back to what I had prayed ...
