Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Create a mixture of vitamin C and distilled water. Add 3 teaspoons of almond oil to the mixture. Add a ½ teaspoon of olive oil to the mixture. Add 3 drops of geranium essential oil. Add 3 drops of lavender essential oil. Add 2 tablespoons of beeswax. Add a 1/4 teaspoon of vitamin E oil. Add 1 tablespoon of shea butter. Mix all the oils into the mixture and simmer. Transfer your cream to an apothecary bottle or keep it in the jar for storage. Apply the vitamin C cream to see effects.

Answer: Mix a ½ teaspoon of vitamin C with 5 teaspoons of distilled water in a glass jar. Mix it well, because vitamin C takes time to dissolve. Stir it frequently until it is fully dissolved, without leaving any grainy particles in the mixture. The benefits of almond oil include protecting the skin from sun damage, rejuvenating and softening the skin, and reducing scarring, inflammation, and skin irritation. Almond oil is rich in vitamin A, B, and E which are great for skin health. Olive oil is rich in vitamin E, which helps moisturize the skin and fights against free radicals and skin irritations. Geranium oil can reduce the appearance of scarring, improve blood circulation to the skin, tone up skin, and cause new cells to regenerate. Geranium comes from a plant named Pelargonium, which is often used to treat many skin problems. Geranium oil is classified as antiseptic, astringent, tonic, and anti-infectious. Lavender oil soothes the skin very well and helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles on the face. Lavender contains phytochemicals, linalool, and linalyl acetate that improve overall skin health. Beeswax offers anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antiviral benefits.  Creams, lotions or soaps containing beeswax can greatly improve dry, rough skin. This can reduce the effects skin aging, especially wrinkles. Vitamin E is an important antioxidant because it protects cell membranes and prevents damages to the enzymes associated with them. Vitamin E helps inactivate free radicals, making them less likely to cause damage and reducing skin aging. Applying vitamin E to the skin can reduce the damage caused by sun exposure and limit the production of cancer-causing cells. Shea butter is also known as an all-natural vitamin A cream. It is known to be a superb moisturizer, and good at combating dry skin. Because of its anti-inflammatory and moisturizing properties, shea butter is lauded as an anti-aging cream.  The chief causes of aging are inflammation and sun damage. Therefore, the damage reversal properties of vitamin A may be beneficial for wrinkle reduction and collagen renewal. Place the glass jar into a pot filled with 3–4 inches (7.6–10.2 cm) of water and simmer the mixture. Mix together all the ingredients thoroughly to create a smooth and easy to apply mixture.  Let the jar sit without its lid until the ingredients have melted. Stir occasionally. Once the mixture has melted and it is evenly combined, pour it into a small glass jar. Let it sit at room temperature until the cream solidifies. After the cream has solidified, transfer it into an apothecary bottle or keep it in its jar. Then, keep it refrigerated. The vitamin C cream will only last for 2 weeks. After you finish creating your cream, apply a small amount to your skin to test it, because some people are very sensitive to ascorbic acid (Vitamin C).


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Select a variety of hard and soft charcoal. Choose plain white paper, charcoal paper, or toned paper. Purchase a kneaded eraser, blending stump, and/or white chalk. Work at an easel if you are just starting out. Pick up a fixative to hold the charcoal in place.

Answer: Just like any other art mediums, charcoal comes in many varieties. However, each type of charcoal is categorized by whether it is hard or soft. Harder charcoals produce lighter cleaner edges, while softer charcoals are better for blending and making deeper lines.  The compressed charcoal stick is a hard charcoal that is great for making darker lines. Compressed charcoal also comes in white to help with highlighting.  Soft charcoals are great for blending and creating smudges throughout your piece. However, these are some of the messiest charcoals to work with.  Use powdered charcoal for a lighter look and if you are toning larger areas. However, it is generally very messy. When it comes to paper, there is a wide variety to choose from. Choosing the right paper for your piece may take some trial and error. Experiment with a few different paper styles and charcoal hardness to pick what works well for you.  Plain white paper, newsprint, bristol board, and illustration board are good choices for a drawing with smooth lines. Plain white paper also creates natural highlights easily because the gray or white of the paper combines with the color of the charcoal.  Charcoal paper, pastel papers, and watercolor papers have a fine-ribbed texture that helps create more brittle lines.  Toned papers that require you to use both white and black charcoal. Kneaded erasers can completely erase chalk. These, along with blending stumps and white chalk, can also be used to help create shadows and highlights in your drawing. It can be tricky to master drawing with charcoal because any accidental contact you have with your charcoal drawing will cause it to smudge. Start by working at an area where you can keep your drawing vertical and an area that is well-lit. You should always choose a well-lit area since charcoal drawings are on the darker side, it is difficult to see highlighting, shadows, and details of your drawing. “Fixing” your drawing once you’re done will keep any dust from the charcoal in place. Fixatives come as a spray that is applied by spraying it onto your work.  Fixatives come in 2 types, final and workable. Many artists use the workable spray because you can make small changes to your work after it has been fixed. You cannot alter your work after using the final fixative. You can use hairspray as an alternative, but be careful because it can cause the surface of your drawing to become slightly darker.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Buy a learning tool. Take a class. Get a tutor. Join a group.

Answer:
Some require a hefty fee, some do not. Ask around for une opinion or if a friend has a set of CDs or a program you can borrow. Popular options are Rosetta Stone, Pimsleur, or Michele Thomas. Every program is best for a different type of learner.  Pimsleur does not give you a book. It's a set of CDs--good for aural learners and those with long commutes. It does use English and allows you to translate. It utilizes backchaining, as in, "porte," "la porte," "-ez la porte," "Fermez la porte," to practice pronunciation. Rosetta Stone is a computer program and does not allow any English and relies heavily on pictures. It plays memory games and is ideal for visual and sensory learners. Michele Thomas (on CD and YouTube) advocates a slightly different style of teaching. He emphasizes patterns in language and utilizing cognates. You start with one basic sentence, such as, "Je vais au restaurant," (I am going to the restaurant.) and he leads you to, "Je vais au restaurant ce soir parce que c'est mon anniversaire." (I am going to the restaurant tonight because it's my birthday.) Your vocabulary expands as you build on the blocks you already have. Duolingo.com is another site which trains you in French: memorizing by training to translate (English-to-French; and French-to-English), listening comprehension and more. The best way to learn a language (apart from living in the country, of course) is to practice every day with others. Taking a class forces learning into your schedule, holds you accountable, and gives you resources in others that you wouldn't otherwise have.  Check out your local community college or university. Though the class might be more expensive, the perks of being a student and having access to the facilities lessen the blow to your wallet. Find a language school. These classes are often much cheaper, smaller, and offered on nights or weekends. If you live in a fairly diverse area, one shouldn't be too far away. The internet is a beautiful thing. Loads of people are looking for an easy way to make an extra $50 a week. You can cater the learning to your schedule and develop your own curriculum. Don't let just anyone be your tutor. Just because you can speak the language does not mean you can teach it. Aim for someone who has done it before, not someone with four years of high school French. Odds are there are loads of people just like you of all demographics and ages. Visit your local area colleges or language institutes for information. Practice with someone. You can find a penpal online or you can visit your local chapter of the Alliance Française. Delve deep into your online contacts for anyone who might be able to move you forward--that friend from high school who studied abroad? Your cousin Alberta who moved to Vancouver? Do whatever you can to guarantee success.
