INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Use enough alcohol rub to cover the skin of both hands. This method should only be used if hands are not visibly soiled, or if washing with soap and water is not possible. It should not be used if you have open cuts on your skin. Spread product onto both palms. Be sure this area is sufficiently covered by alcohol rub. Repeat this action with the left hand over the right. This will spread product onto the backs of both hands. Be sure this area is sufficiently covered by alcohol rub. Spread alcohol rub between your fingers. Move your fingers back and forth to ensure that product reaches all areas between your fingers. Interlock your fingers.  This ensures that the product reaches the very back of your fingers. “Rotational rubbing” simply means to rub in a circular motion. Use the palm of one hand to distribute product onto the thumb of the opposite hand by way of rotational rubbing. Repeat this on the other side. Bring the fingers of one hand together. Use these fingers to distribute alcohol rub onto the opposite palm by way of rotational rubbing. Repeat this on the other side. Use one hand to distribute alcohol rub onto the opposite wrist by way of rotational rubbing. Repeat this on the other side. You will not need disposable towels. Simply wait a few moments. Once dry, your hands are clean.

SUMMARY: Dispense a palmful of alcohol rub into a cupped hand. Rub your palms together. Place the palm of the right hand over the back of the left hand and rub. Interlace the fingers of both hands. Place the backs of fingers onto opposing palms. Use rotational rubbing on each thumb. Use rotational rubbing to distribute product to the palm of each hand again. Ensure that alcohol rub reaches your wrists. Allow your hands to dry.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Measure your quilt’s width so you can purchase the right sized rod. Then use your measuring tape, a level, and a pencil to mark the wall where you intend to install the rod’s brackets at either end. Screw the brackets firmly into place. Insert the rod through the quilt’s attached sleeve or tabs and then place the rod in the brackets.  Install a third bracket to support the rod by its center for any quilt over four feet in width. When measuring to determine where your brackets will go, mark where the top and bottom of each bracket will be, as well as the screw holes. If possible, work with a partner who can stand back at a distance and verify that your markings are level. To ease the brackets’ installation, drill a shallow pilot hole for each screw’s marking. Remove the screw and place the bracket against the wall with its screw holes lined up over your pilot holes. Purchase velcro strips with adhesive backing. Attach two strips to the back of your quilt, one in each top-corner. Then stick more strips at regular intervals along the back’s top for extra support. Next, measure the distance between each strip. Then measure the wall and mark with a pencil where each strip will meet it. Attach corresponding strips on top of each marking and then hang your quilt by pressing the quilt's strips into the wall's.  Be aware that some wall paint may be resistant to adhesive backings.  Alternately, screw or nail a wooden board to the wall and attach the velcro strips to that. Choose a board that is 2 inches wide and a half-inch thick. Cut its length to 2 to 4 inches less than the quilt’s width to hide it from view. Use more strips than you think you might need to ensure they will hold the quilt’s weight. Line the top at frequent intervals and/or double, triple or quadruple the number of strips used at each interval. Strips can be doubly secured to the quilt by hand-sewing or pinning them. This method is probably best suited for smaller, lighter quilts. Select a wooden framework that is slightly larger than your quilt. Place the framework face-down on top of a slightly larger sheet of washed cotton cloth. Fold the cloth’s ends over the back of the frame and staple them in place so that the cloth is pulled taut over the frame’s face. Next, place the framework face-down on top of the quilt's back and hand-sew the cloth to the back of the quilt. Sew parallel zigzag patterns from top-to-bottom or side-to-side across the entire quilt.  Hang the frame by its corners with nails or screws, or according to the directions of any hardware that may be included. Do not cover the quilt with glass. Blocking air circulation may lead to mold and mildew. Use rust-free staples to avoid staining.

SUMMARY: Use a hanging rod. Hang your quilt with velcro. Mount your quilt.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: About once a week, use a face mask that’s formulated for your skin type. There are a number of different masks on the market, from clay masks to sheet masks, and each one is designed to target certain skin problems or concerns. Choose the one that’s right for you, and apply it to clean skin. Follow any instructions on the packaging, such as whether to apply the mask to wet or dry skin, how long to leave it on, and how to remove it.  For instance, if you have dry skin, you might use a nourishing mask made of white clay. Try making your own face mask out of natural ingredients like avocado, honey, and oats. Even if you normally have clear skin, you may get breakouts now and then, especially around the time you get your period. If that happens, visit a drug store or supermarket and pick up a cream with benzoyl peroxide. Apply a little of the cream over the bump 1-2 times a day, being sure to follow any packaging instructions.  Don't pop your pimples. This can make the infection worse and it may lead to scarring. These creams are available over-the-counter, so you won’t need a prescription. However, if you have severe acne, it’s a good idea to see a dermatologist. If you get dry, flaky patches of skin on your face, moisturizer alone may not be enough to treat them. In that case, cover the patches with a thin layer of petroleum jelly or spread olive oil over the area. This will provide deep moisturizing power, but it will be specifically targeted to your problem areas. Don’t attempt to exfoliate the dry patches away, as this can make them worse. If you’re following a regular skin care routine but you still get oily halfway through the day, try patting your face gently with blotting papers. These papers will lift away oil without disturbing your makeup or over-drying your skin. It’s totally normal to spot stray hairs between your eyebrows, above your top lip, or under your chin. However, if they bother you, it’s fine to tweeze them. Grasp a hair with a sharp pair of tweezers, trying to get as close as you can to the base of the hair. Then, pull the hair sharply in the same direction it’s growing. The hair should slide out by the roots. For more widespread facial hair, consider visiting an esthetician for waxing, threading, or bleaching. You can even ask about more permanent procedures like laser hair removal or epilation. If you notice that the skin under your eyes looks puffy or swollen, lie on your back and placed sliced cucumbers over your eyes for about 15 minutes. The cucumbers will help soothe your eyes while reducing any puffiness. In addition, the time you spend relaxing will help you feel more rested and rejuvenated, which can also show on your skin. If you don’t have any cucumbers at home, place 2 spoons in the freezer for about 5 minutes, then place them over your eyes for 10-15 minutes. Start by poking out your lower lip as far as you can. Hold that for about 30 seconds, then tilt your head down so your chin is pointed at your chest, and stay like that for about 30 seconds as well. Then, look up at the ceiling and push your bottom lip out. These exercises will work your facial muscles, which can help your face look more toned and smooth.

SUMMARY:
Balance your skin with an occasional face mask. Spot-treat occasional acne with a cream containing benzoyl peroxide. Cover dry patches with petroleum jelly or olive oil. Blot your face throughout the day if you have oily skin. Tweeze stray hairs to remove them. Place cucumbers on your eyes to decrease puffiness. Try facial exercises to tone the muscles in your face.
