We may think that cosmetics are a relatively new invention but the truth is that they have been around for centuries. Women (and sometimes even men!) have historically used cosmetics to enhance their appearance and to make themselves look and feel more attractive since ancient times. And, they’ve used some unusual stuff along the way!

Most experts credit the Egyptians as the first civilization to really set trends in the use of cosmetics although their use may actually date back further than this. It is thought that the Egyptians were however the first people to promote the use of kohl as a cosmetic on the eyes — a trend that still continues to this day!

Of course not all of the substances that were used by ancient civilizations could be checked in the way that they can be today. So, for example, many Egyptians did themselves no real health favors by using lead and mercury to make up many of the cosmetic substances that they used. White lead was particularly popular as it could make a useful white paste with a variety of uses.

Many early civilizations played it safer with their cosmetic production and used natural products and substances such as beeswax, henna, egg and flowers and plants. The discovery that bird droppings could be used to lighten the color of your hair, however, was not one that carried on through time!

During the years cosmetic production changed but many relatively dangerous substances remained the norm. In the days of Elizabeth I, for example, a white face was a sign of great beauty so court ladies would paint their faces a stark (and often quite scary!) white using white lead. This also poisoned them of course.

It wasn’t really until the 1700s that people started to realize that using substances such as lead, mercury and the ever popular arsenic wasn’t doing their skin or their longevity much good. Unfortunately it was to be a good few centuries before the cosmetic industry became regulated enough to stop manufacturers using these kinds of harmful substances in their products.

So, over the years women have used a hair removal cream based on rat poison, eyelash dyes that have blinded them, foundations that have rotted their skin and maybe contributed to their early death and various facial products based on arsenic. And, things sometimes don’t seem much better today with levels of lead found in certain lipsticks in the past decade or so.

Nowadays, however, women (and men) who wear cosmetics are generally lucky enough to have regulators looking after their general health. Given the global trend towards improving our own health and that of nature and the environment in general, many cosmetics and related products are much more natural than they ever used to be.

The big advantage here is that our skins will suffer less from using today’s cosmetics than they did just a few decades ago. They’ll certainly do better than if we were living in Elizabethan or Ancient Egyptian times!

One of the largest health markets has to do with ways to lose weight quickly. So many people are looking for some type of fast fat loss that they are willing to go to almost any length in order to try to lose significant amounts of weight in as short a time as possible. One of the ways people try to do this, however, is by starving themselves since most other forms of weight loss are generally slower.

Starving yourself, however, only has some effects in the beginning, because after you have lost some weight initially your metabolism starts to slow and you end up gaining that weight back on even if you are dieting. Without a metabolism, even small amounts of food will cause you to gain weight. Starving yourself is not just a health concern - it is also a bad way to lose weight.

The only safe way to lose weight is to perform some types of regular exercise. By increasing your muscle mass (not necessarily size, but mass) you will be able to increase your metabolism (which is directly related to how much muscle mass you have) and ultimately will lose pounds of weight in a very short time.

Exercise

The types of exercises you need to do are cardio (because you burn a lot of calories and your heart muscle is a huge part of your metabolism) and strength training. Cardio is going to help you see more immediate results, but strength training is what is going to continue to shed the pounds even after you are done exercising.

Start with some type of exercise workout like an exercise bike or a treadmill. Exercise bikes tend to be less taxing, so you can be on them for longer, and some exercise bikes also have good resistance so that you can increase muscle mass in the process.

Then go straight to strength training. There is a lot of debate on the topic, but it seems as though the best types of exercises are lower resistance, more repetition, because you are constantly moving which will help you burn off more pounds.

Diet

After you exercise, you need to worry about your diet. If you do not eat, or you do not eat healthy, your metabolism will slow. What you want to have are foods with no fat - not because fat helps you gain weight (even though it does) but because it also causes your body to process food slower, and you want to make sure that the food you are eating is processed as quickly as possible.

Try to look towards high protein foods, as well as healthy carbohydrates like whole wheat bread and natural pastas. This will give you the energy you need for the next workout and will also help make sure that your muscles retain their strength, which will result in greater weight loss.

But eating the right foods and performing a regular muscle workout, you can easily experience fast fat loss. It takes a strong commitment, but it is the healthiest and easiest way to lose weight quickly as well as keep the weight off.
