How do I make a mud mask at home if you can’t go to the store?

If you have oily skin, egg whites, whipped, and spread on your face.

Men’s Shaving Cream Reviews – is Gillette the Only Option?

Ah, Gillette. Their shaving cream conjures up a lot of memories. Primarily all of the mistakes I made when I first started shaving as a teen – when I barely had any facial hair to begin with. Gillette shaving cream in a can was the first I ever tried, and I still remember using handfuls of it, turning me into some Santa Claus wannabe instead of the mature young adult I was aspiring to become.

To this day, I throw a can of Gillette into my basket of toiletries I get from the drugstore, out of habit. It’s available everywhere, in massive quantities that you can’t ignore as you walk through the aisles. But recently, a friend turned me onto some specialty brands that offer incredible men’s shaving cream options. Now it’s becoming increasingly apparent that it wasn’t just that I was making mistakes in how I was using my shaving cream, but that I was using Gillette at all.

The biggest problem with Gillette is that, despite all of its formulations, it wants to reach a broad base of shavers – in slightly harsher terms, it’s borderline generic. Ingredients are synthetic, ‘moisturizers’ leave a strange film on your face, and as the results are always the same, there’s an odd fast food quality about it that makes me wonder why I ever thought this was the best shaving cream out there. Sure, there’s that sentimental value that ‘Gillette smell’ conjures, but is it really worth it to harm your face?

A Men’s shaving cream?

We’ve come too long of a way to continue passively supporting this atrocity that has affected generations of shavers. There are much better options out there that offer a closer shave, smoother skin, better protection, and are made of ingredients that you can actually pronounce. As long as you are okay with abandoning the pressurized can, everything from shave soap to shaving oil becomes a possibility for your shave.

My friend, for example, gave me a men’s grooming kit as a gift – or hint, perhaps – which included the Shave Cream from Anthony Logistics for Men. I had heard of Anthony before, even saw it, but had never ventured to try it myself. I was still brainwashed at the time, so the bottle didn’t look like shaving cream to me. When I put it in my medicine cabinet, I could almost mistake it for my hair gel. I didn’t believe that what was in there could improve my shave.

Boy was I wrong. From the first moment, I could feel how differently my skin was reacting to this shave cream. The razor glided across my face in a way that it felt like I was, for the first time, shaving correctly. And in a way, since the Santa Claus days, perhaps I had. For the rest of the day, my skin didn’t dry out, felt naturally soft, and I could definitely see the difference in my reflection.

I would suggest trying several different brands in order to, over time, find out what works best for you. There are several excellent specialty brands like Anthony that are out there – some companies even offer starter sets that allow you to try a range of products at once. There’s nothing frivolous about experimenting with the art of shaving. Improving your shave and taking care of your skin will make a real difference to how you look and feel for years to come. You can even go back to Gillette, if that’s what works for you – but I’m pretty sure you’ll be throwing out that old can of shaving gel pretty soon.

Southern Fresh Water Total Fishing Tips

My trip into the south to uncover the best techniques for catching catfish has yielded some unusual yet astounding results. I first arrived in a small town called Belton in the great state of Texas. I asked some of the locals where a good place to catch catfish would be.

I was directed to Lake Belton only about 15 minutes from where I was. Boat in tow, with a bucket of minnows, and a box of night crawlers I headed out to see what kind of success I would have.
I ended up going to about four different spots spending roughly two hours only to have my bait stolen off the hook.

I started getting discouraged until I spotted an elderly man about three hundred yards away fishing from the bank. I noticed this gentleman pulling his stringer from the water and to my surprise he had two full stringers of channel cat catfish ranging in weight from about two and half to fifteen pounds!

I asked him what he was doing to be so successful and he said the first stringer came from trot lines he had set up over night. When I asked what he was using for bait I was completely astounded by his answer. He pulled a small bag from his tackle box and revealed to me about a dozen small cut up pieces of ivory soap. I couldn’t believe it, I was dumbfounded. I asked how it worked, and the old timer simply said “I don’t know, my grandfather taught me this over forty years ago”.

When I asked about his second and soon to be third stringer of catfish, he pulled his bait bucket from the water and showed me little creatures I have never seen or heard before. Helgamites was the name of the odd insects. Small shrimp like insects with an armor plated exoskeleton and huge ant like pinchers on their heads.

These creatures can draw blood and it hurts when they latch on to your finger, so use caution. These insects can be found in rocks close to the banks of rivers and fresh water lakes. The old man told me he always uses them along with another secret fishing tip. When the lake water drops a little the old man goes out and digs a hole about twenty to thirty feet off the bank, and drops a foul smelling brick of maze into the hole. The smell attracts the catfish in droves, and they hang around all day.

The old timer told me he catches about thirty to forty keepers every time he fishes. That day the old man and I caught fifty three catfish. As far as fresh water fishing for catfish is concerned, the old timer provided me with the ultimate total fishing tips.

Overview and History of Pens

According to statistics put forth by the U.S. Writing Instrument Manufacturers Association in 2005, retractable ball point pens were the most popular writing utensil with 26%. Standard ball point pens took second with 14%. There is no doubt that the pen is an extremely important part of modern day society. The pen has had an important role in the past as well, with a history dating back to the Egyptians.

Around 3000 BC, scribes from ancient Egypt were the first people to write on paper. Back then, reed brushes were used to write on papyrus scrolls. The reed pen was used for awhile, but slowly began to be replaced around the 7th century by the quill pen. This is the type of pen that was used to write the Dead Sea Scrolls. It was introduced to Europe in 700 AD, and stayed in use for a long time. The constitution of the United States was signed using a quill pen in 1787.

In the early 19th century, the quill pen was replaced with the metal dip pen, which contained a steel nib to hold ink. It started to be mass produced in 1822 and within 30 years, it came into generalized use. The dip pen had to be constantly dipped in ink, however, people considered this very inconvenient. They wanted a pen with a reservoir of ink, which brought about the fountain pen. Widespread use of the fountain pen did not occur until the 1870s.

Improvements continued to be made to the fountain pen over the years, adding better ways of controlling ink flow and faster and cleaner ways to fill it. Once the pen was made reliable, fashion took over and new designs started being made as well.

More modern day pens were created a few years after this. In 1943, the ballpoint pen went into commercial production, followed by the felt tip pen in the 1960s. The rollerball pen was introduced in the 1980s and is one of the smoother pens available.

It is clear that pens have been important writing instruments throughout history. Constantly reworked and reinvented, the pen has come a long way from being made of reeds or feathers. Pens have offered a more permanent method of record keeping for thousands of years, and will continue to do so in the years to come.

A short description of the types of pens discussed is offered below:

- Ballpoint Pen – This type of pen dispenses oil-based ink by rolling a small ball in a socket. The ball picks up ink as it rolls and then dispenses it on the paper. It is very reliable, and has become one of the most popular tools for writing.

- Rollerball Pen – A rollerball pen uses a water-based liquid or gel ink in a similar fashion to the ballpoint. The ink used by a rollerball is more easily absorbed by paper, however, so the pen moves easier across the writing surface. This gives the pen very smooth movement and an unmatched ease of writing.

- Fountain Pen – A fountain pen delivers water-based ink through a nib, usually made of metal. The ink flows from a reservoir through a feed, to the nib. Capillary action and gravity do the work in this process. The reservoir can be refillable or disposable. Refillable reservoirs may require the use of an eyedropper or some sort of piston.

- Felt-tip Pen – A felt-tip pen, commonly called a marker, has a porous tip of a fibrous material. There are different classes of felt tips, depending on the type of writing surface being used. Fine-tip markers are for paper, medium-tip markers are often used by children, and larger markers are used for whiteboards or cardboard. Markers can come in permanent or non-permanent inks as well.

- Dip Pen – A dip pen uses a metal nib attached to a handle or holder. It is similar in function to a fountain pen, but does not have an ink reservoir, so must be repeatedly recharged with ink.

- Quill Pen – The feather of a large bird, often a goose, is the basis for a quill pen. Used before most other types of pens, the shaft of the feather acts as the ink reservoir. They were used in medieval times and were the replacement for the reed pen.

- Reed Pen – One of the first writing utensils, a reed pen is cut from reeds or bamboo and slip with a narrow tip. It works similar to a quill pen, but is made with different materials.
