Skin is the body's largest and fastest-growing organ, and to that end, it's safe to say that what people put onto their bodies, as well as into their bodies, affects their skin. Healthy skin is essential for many reasons, and in order to achieve it, certain factors need to be considered. Good skin health is dependent on external factors, such as sun exposure, temperature changes, environmental issues and, of course, product usage. All of these items can lead to skin irritation, dryness, low elasticity, poor texture and more. Skin health is also influenced by internal factors, such as diet, lifestyle, stress, hormones and genetics.

Sweat spiked with hair care product residues along with bacteria, oil and cross-contamination from gym equipment all play a part. But no need to skip your workouts. Just keep these tips in mind for healthy, glowing skin after the workout's over.

It's not easy to be counterintuitive and go against the old paradigms. Yet history teaches us that most breakthrough successes have come from running counter to the prevailing paradigms. Where would we be today if Bill Gates of Microsoft had believed his own pronouncement in 1981 that "640K of memory ought to be enough for anybody" and stopped pushing the limits of what computers could do? So take a walk on the wild side and try these five counterintuitive principles for yourself.

There's a lot of talk about storytelling these days and rightly so. Consumers want an emotional connection to the businesses they choose to buy from and they crave deeper connection and real engagement. What they tend to get is the traditional, factual based descriptions on websites, in advertising and in social media that tends to say very little apart from what products or services a particular business sells.

The focus for brands is to convince, or influence, as many purchase decisions to go in their favor. In the online environment, there is an extraordinary opportunity to reach out to the largest audience possible and influence what they buy whether it is a product or service. However, there are thousands of brands out there doing the exact same thing, so the challenge is to become more influential than them. But the rules of the game have changed.

Vaccination is a mainstay of preventive healthcare, reducing the incidence of serious childhood infections. Ecological studies have demonstrated an inverse association between markers of high ambient ultraviolet radiation exposure (e.g., sunny season, low latitude of residence) and reduction in the vaccination-associated immune response. Higher sun exposure on the day prior to and spanning the day of vaccination has been associated with a reduced antigen-specific immune response independent of skin pigmentation.

Did you know ... It is the position of the NCEA that:
- Microcurrent devices intended to be used to help reduce the visible signs of aging, beautify and improve the appearance of the skin, utilizing low levels of electrical current in conjunction with skin care products, should be performed by estheticians.
- Microcurrent procedures performed by estheticians, are not intended to cause a visible contraction of the muscle via the electrical current.
- In addition to manufacturer supplied, device specific education, estheticians who wish to perform microcurrent procedures, should take the necessary education to include theoretical and practical application, as part of their core curriculum or as continuing education modules.
