Guerlain used to be identified with our grandmothers, not in vain the first perfume dates from 170 years back, but it has developed as well as women. If in 20's created Shalimar because of the oriental fashion of the decade, in 80's created Samsara because of the chase for spirituality.

Don't Burn, Baby: Top 3 Sun Protectors

In Disco Inferno, Edwin Collins proposed to burn dancing in the disco. Even though burning dancing in the disco can be a good idea, burning sunbathing it is not that cool, as can have tragic consequences, with sun burnt as the slighest damage. Acting with responsability and the appropiate sun protector will keep you safe. Frequently told and once again: so that the sun is benefitial, don't take baths of more than 15 minutes a day and in the hours that the sun heats up less. The eagerness of looking good in a short time can lead to do non sense and risk health; it takes an afternoon for noticing sunburnt and it takes 20 years for serious damages. Unfortunately in most of the supermarkets you won't find a protection factor over 15 when it's the minimum recommended, unless you skin is black. And even worse, people use to think the lower, the faster they will be tanned. On the contrary, a safe tan takes place in weeks, with a little bath every day, and with the correct protection, that includes face and lips, adapted to the phototype.The phototype indicates the sun protector factor you need according your features. There's a selection of the best sun protectors we've tried: 1) Firming Lotion Nivea Sun: Recommended by all fashion magazines, joins effectiveness and nice price. Our mums use the classic version of body cream when the protection factors weren't invented yet. Non greasy formula, that combines a 15 SPF with a firming effect noticeable since the first application. 2) Sun Advantage Anti-Cellulite and Depilation Retardand by Sensilis (200 ml=26 euros): Recently renewed with a retardand of depilation, this bronzer fights cellulite too, all with a 15 SPF.

Surviving Cold

When metereology is unsteady, you'd better watch out, flu is always around the corner. Grown up with parents coming from small towns of cold Spain, remedies against cold are the key for survival.

My grandfather used to say the best remedy for catarrh was to put a chili in the soup. Without being that radical, surely you've heard more than one remedy for improving it without going to the pharmacy. The combination of Vitamin C (as an orange juice)and hot milk with honey is one of the most famous formulas. For sure, you are in the way, but it's better if you replace hot milk, which boost mucus, with hot water.

Another remedy, this one for sore throat, is to gargle with bicarbonate and lemon. First, get warm water and mix with lemon juice and bicarbonate. Then, drink a gulp and gargle as long as you stand. Repeat this two-three times a day until recover.
