Five revealing secrets to ensure beauty and health:

1. Give them Sunsational Protection: While toners and moisturizes will offer little advantage, creams with SPF 30 can almost work miracles. This marvelous “moisturizes” pampers and protects.
· Overexposure to sun has a tendency to “damage” the elastin and collagen in skin that keeps it supple, smooth, and firm. Additionally, brown age spots are a direct result of sun “damage” and not age.
· Allow at least a half hour for ultimate absorption before heading outdoors.
· Refrain from dabbing a spot of alcohol-based fragrance between your breasts. It’s known to elevate photosensitivity
· See a dermatologist about a prescription Vitamin-A cream to deal with already prevalent sun damage. It may help alleviate some brown spots. Laser resurfacing or a chemical peel may be necessary to eliminate spots entirely.

2. Breath Freely: For a breath of fresh air and happy, healthy breasts, QUIT SMOKING! Recent studies identified cigarette smoke as directly responsible for increasing levels of matrix metalloproteinase in the body….a substance known for depleting collagen and resulting in increased prevalence of wrinkles.

3. Exercise Your Right To Stay Beautiful: While it won’t necessarily increase your bust size, exercise is beneficial for keeping all of you firm and fit.
· Give’em a lift with strength training moves that enhance the pecs.
· Push yourself to do pushups. Ask a trainer how to use dumbbells effectively to tone your chest.
· Concern yourself with weighty issues such as not gaining or loosing too much, especially all at once. This is the best way to avoid stretch marks. If they’re all ready present, dermatologists note: red lines are more responsive to laser but remind women (and men alike) that no treatment is totally effective in eliminating them completely.

4. De-stress Your Breasts: According to experts, your cleavage gets lots of attention; especially form allergens, which tend to leave it red and itchy. Don’t agitate, aggravate or irritate your breasts by scratching. Remember:
· The sternum area has very little fat, making it highly sensitive to the elements.
· Cleavage may be easily irritated by detergents, softeners, jewelry and even clothing dye.
· Consider cortisone cream if a product change doesn’t solve the problem

5. Keep Yourself In Check: Don’t neglect self and professional exams.
· Schedule you first mammography for your 40th Birthday…unless you have implants or a medical condition that may warrant you start sooner. An examine should be scheduled once a year after that.
· Women ages 20-39 are encouraged to have their breasts examined every two to three years as per the American Cancer Society.
· Arrange an immediate appointment if you notice or feel a lump or nipple change.
· Do frequent self-exams at any age.
