The desire for great looking skin is not uncommon. Our skin is akin to our "book cover" and is what people gauge our appearance on, so it is easy to see why so many people are constantly looking for the answer to maintaining healthy, glowing and youthful-looking skin. Skin care companies have made millions off these insecurities, promising youth in a bottle, often to the disappointment of consumers. While not all of these products are shams, the majority do not live up to their promises.

It also provides detailed tips and hints on how to keep skin healthy, glowing and firm, even as we age. This helps to keep our self-esteem up and make us confident in our outward appearance.

The guide recommends a regular skin care routine that includes the following: Cleansing Exfoliation Moisturizing Sun protection It is advised to cleanse the skin before proceeding with further care. Properly cleansed skin can then be more effectively exfoliated or moisturized. Moisturizing the skin without first cleansing it can, for example, clog pores and leave one susceptible to an acne outbreak. The guide also urges care be used in exfoliation. It is entirely possible to overdo it, which can lead to irritated, inflamed or even damaged skin. The guide goes on to explain some of the modern day problems associated with skin care, such as the added strain on the skin by way of environmental pollutants. It describes the commonly available basic skin care products, their uses and how they are used most effectively.

There are a variety of different skin types, such as oily, dry or sensitive skin and each skin type has slightly different needs. The guide outlines how best to care for each skin type safely and effectively. The guide also notes that different parts of the body (such as the face or legs) need to be treated differently. For example, certain areas of the body, such as the legs, tend to be drier and may require a more heavy duty moisturizer. With each passing year, there are more natural, herbal and organic skin care products on the market and the guide advocated the use of these products as they tend to be more gentle on skin, as they do not contain harsh chemicals or additives. While some of these products work wonderfully, they do tend to cost more and for some, they do not work as well as traditional skin care products. It should be noted that just because something is labeled "natural" or "organic," it does not necessarily mean it is a superior product. Healthy, youthful and glowing skin is highly coveted by many people and has resulted in the lucrative anti-aging and preventative skin care industry. Keeping skin healthy is not all about knowing which creams to apply. The Smart & Easy Guide to Skin Care provides easy to understand advice on how to keep skin healthy, youthful and smooth.

Pimples are a common part of everyday life for teenagers and adults, men and women, alike. However, while for many, the occasional pimple is just a small irritation, for some, acne is a real problem.

The Montebello Islands are a cluster of small, low relief land masses, comprised of ancient limestone, with skeletal soils, sparse vegetation and shifting sand bodies. They lie some 80 km from the coastline, representing far flung 'high points' on the once extensive arid coastal plains of north-west Australia. Barrow Island lies between the mainland and the islands. More famous as the first nuclear testing site used by the British in the 1950s and the location of the first known shipwreck off the Australian coast, (the Tryal in 1622), the Montebello Islands represent a unique configuration of terrestrial and marine ecosystems. This paper reports on archaeological analysis carried out on assemblages recovered from two stratified cave sites on Campbell Island in the Montebello group in northwest Australia. These sites provide unique insights into human responses to the drowning of the extensive arid plains of north-west Australia following the Last Glacial Maximum. Rich faunal assemblages have been recovered which date to the period 30,000-7000 BP as the local environmental context changed in response to the post-glacial marine transgression. Field surveys and excavations were carried out over two field seasons between 1992-4 and involved a team of archaeologists, field assistants and support crew.Written by Peter Veth, Ken Aplin, Lynley Wallis, Tiina Manne, Tim Pulsford, Elizabeth White and Alan Chappell
