They will smooth and hydrate itchy skin. Do this  at least once a week for maximum benefit.  Take 1/3 cup oatmeal and blend in a blender until it's a fine powder. Pour into your warm bath as you run the water, to help mix it thoroughly. After your bath the oatmeal powder may be left in tub, especially if you did not blend enough. Don't worry, this isn't difficult to clean (unless you leave it in for days). Oatmeal baths can be bought in stores too if you would rather nix the extra work of blending it yourself. If you live in a dry area, your skin will be extra sensitive, and a humidifier can help. By adding moisture to the air, this basic machine can help your skin to stay soft.  Using distilled water (pure water, no minerals, no contaminants) is recommended. Tap water contains lead, chlorine and nitrates, which is best to avoid whenever possible. If you don’t have your own humidifier, consider making your own using an old t-shirt and fan. Low temperatures and humidity dry out skin, leaving it rough. For someone suffering with keratosis pilaris, this can aggravate your condition even more. If you live in a cool, dry area, make sure to moisturize daily. Keratosis pilaris is typically less noticeable in the summer, which may have ties to being in the sun. Spend a little time outdoors to get the hormonal boost the sun provides while aiding your skin in clearing out dead cells.  Always wear sunscreen when you spend time in the sun to avoid skin damage. There have been no official studies that prove sunlight improves keratosis pilaris, but there seems to be a correlation between the two. If nothing else, spending time in the sun has direct links to lessening depression and anxiety, which is good for everyone. Taking extremely hot baths or showers can scald the skin and dry it out. When possible take warm or cool baths and showers to lessen the effect of the heat on your skin. Take a visit to your dermatologist to get a prescription for medication which may help your case. Your doctor may prescribe an ointment or cream, but each should make a difference in improving your skin. Although this is expensive and not beneficial in 100% of cases, getting laser treatment may help severe cases of keratosis pilaris. If you have been struggling for many years with your skin condition, this may be a viable option for you.

Q: On many modern designs, this is a relatively simple process. De-cock the hammer (or striker), pull the take down tabs. After a pull toward the rear of the frame, the slide should be able to move freely off the front of the handgun.  The actual process may vary greatly depending on the model of firearm you are field stripping. Glock & Steyr users: Be triple-sure your firearm is unloaded as you must pull the trigger on the firearm to initiate the field stripping process. There are four major pieces to every semi-automatic handgun (though they may be attached in different ways).  Frame: this is the stock (or "grip") of the handgun. The trigger assembly is usually embedded in the frame, and the magazine well is located inside of the stock. Slide: the piece of metal on top of the firearm; it keeps the chamber sealed, compensates for recoil (on many semi-autos), and houses the firing pin (and a few other components). If you have a polymer frame, this is where 70% (or more) of the gun's weight is. Barrel: the barrel assembly is the barrel and the chamber. Be cautious with the muzzle-end of the barrel and the beginning of the rifling (inside the barrel), as these are the two most important things to affect accuracy and can easily affect it adversely, if damaged. Guide rod and recoil spring: often these are one piece. The guide rod guides the slide as it recoils and the recoil spring pulls the slide back into place after a round is fired.
A: Dismantle the firearm safely. Identify the parts you are cleaning.

Article: Use a vegetable brush to scrub the potato skins thoroughly to remove any dirt. Since you won't be peeling the potatoes, it's important to get the jackets clean. If you want the jackets to have a crispy skin, make sure the potatoes are completely dry before baking. Make 8 to 12 holes all over the potatoes. This will allow moisture to escape during the cooking process. Rub the jackets with olive oil and sprinkle them with salt. This will bring out the flavor of the skins. You can skip this step if you don't like to eat the jackets. Place the potatoes directly on the center rack of the oven and let them bake for about 1 3/4 hours to 2 hours, depending on the size. The potatoes are ready when the skin is crispy and the interiors are soft when poked with a fork.  You may want to place a baking sheet under the potatoes on your oven's lower rack to catch any drippings. If you prefer soft jackets, wrap the potatoes in aluminum foil and poke holes in the foil before placing them on the rack to start baking. Slit each potato in half lengthways. Use a fork to fluff the insides. Add your favorite toppings, like a generous knob of butter, a scoop of sour cream, and a sprinkle of chives. Serve immediately.  Jacket potatoes are excellent as a side dish or an entire meal. To make your potatoes into a meal, top with chili (either meat or vegetarian) or roasted vegetables. For a delicious twist, try jacket potatoes with smoked salmon, cream cheese and capers.

It's best to use sunscreen all year long, even in the winter when the sun isn't as strong. Moisturizing your lips helps them look bright and fresh, preventing cracks and flaking. It's especially important when the air is dry and cold. To keep your lips moisturized, do the following:  After exfoliating your lips, always apply a good nourishing lip balm to keep extra moisture from escaping. If you have trouble with flaky lips, try sleeping with a humidifier. If your body is dehydrated, it'll show up in your lips. Start each day with a full glass of water. For each cup of coffee or soda you have throughout the day, drink a full glass of water to make sure you stay hydrated.  When you have alcohol, make sure to follow it with plenty of water. That way you won't wake up with dry lips. Avoid extremely salty foods, since they can dry out your lips. Smoking tobacco products can lead to lip discoloration. It also causes lip wrinkles and thinning. When you're going for a natural red color, it's best to avoid smoking altogether.
