3 If it makes your skin feel 'squeaky clean,' it's stripping out all the moisture -- which is not a good thing.
4 Women that are losing their hair can use men's Rogain 5% minoxidil formula

7 ways to make life more fun
This is a Men's Health article that teaches you how to "gamify" your life. Take the tasks that seem ordinary and turn them into a game to make them more interesting. Here's how:
1. Define your goals. Don't think of rewards yet, just think of a specific goal you'd like to accomplish.
2. Break it down into specific tasks. Games lead you to a larger level through a series of small steps. Break down your goal into specific tasks.
3. Figure out what motivates you. If social interaction motivates you, then complete your task with a buddy. If it's money, then reward yourself with a little cash every time you accomplish a goal.
4. Track your progress. Track your steps for inspiration (to see how close you're getting to your goal), and to reward yourself periodically.
5. Reward yourself.
6. Level up -- smartly. Reward yourself with something that will take you to the next level. If you're learning to play piano, for example, reward yourself with a cool pair of headphones after you've licked the basics.
7. Have fun. If you're not having fun, you're not doing it right.
