  • Round Face

  • Square Face
    Because the jaw seen from the side is almost at right angles to the jaw bone. this accentuates the upper third of the face. This in turn gives the face as soft almost doe eyed look.
    Audrey Hepburn has this face shape.

  • The Long face

    This shape is defined by a strong jaw and can sometimes give the impression of hardness, and sometimes horse-like future. It is important to use make up to soften these features.
    Jerry Hall and Jennifer Aniston are two women with this shape face.

Natural Remedies - Are they best.

Many Acne sufferers use over the counter or prescribed medication. Many are aware of the ingredients, but are unaware of what they actually are or what they do. Would you put a product that contains an ingredient that mechanics use to clean oil spill off the floor on your face. Maybe you already do.

Many products contain chemicals such as Benzoyl peroxide which have been known to cause irritation and dryness. This can subside over time, but sometimes this is not the case.
Benzoyl has been known to suppress the immune system, and after extensive studies on animals it is believed to increase carcinogenesis.
Glycolic acid is another known irritant used in skin peeling products, it is all very well removing the top layer of skin, but the problem with acne is that it is the lower layers of skin which is where the problem actually is.
After using skin peeling products one can often look like they have a very bad case of sunburn, not very attractive.

Many acne treatments do not have to pass very stringent guidelines according to the FDA (US Food and Drug Administration) state that cosmetic companies, products including acne remedies do not have to have pre market approval, with the exception of colour additives and a few prohibited substances. Other than this they are free to produce their cosmetics and in turn sell them to the public for profit.
You will all have a your own views on this, but you should all be aware of the chemicals that may be in your acne treatments.
