Types of Moles

As the name indicates, birth marks appear shortly after birth and are mainly due to a disturbance in fetal cell development. Acquired moles emerge mostly in women as a result of sunburn or during pregnancy. They can be light-brown, dark-brown or even black in color. The shape and size of moles can vary greatly.
Nevi can be singular or multiple spread throughout the whole body or concentrated mostly on the extremities. Their surface can be either flat or protruding as with warts. They are rarely covered with dark hair.

Lentigo
There are several types of moles. The most common, especially among dark-skinned people, is lentigo. It is a round spot as large as a lentil bean, which can be flat or slightly raised above the surface of the skin. Its color may vary from yellow-brown to dark-brown. It is usually hairless.

Cellular moles
Another birth-mark variety is the cellular mole. It is a raised formation in the shape of a half-sphere. It is soft to the touch with a smooth or ridged surface. Its color can be either the color of the skin, yellow-brown, grayish or dark-violet. The shape can vary from lentil-size to the size of a cherry. Cellular moles are likely to have hair and can be found all over the face and body.

Blue nevus
Blue nevus is another type of mole which appears on the face in the shape of small lentil-sized knots. They have a bluish color which can be visible through the skin.

I really don't think moles really matter,(unless its a Big Black one on the tip of your nose or similar),but I believe that can even be fixed thanks to the latest medical laser centers etc.
It looks natural with most people,even stars,celebs & models are so confident about there moles.
Even My dad has a mole on his upper left cheek its small in size but I still think he looks perfect with it!!!

Protect your skin by Moisturizing

For a lot of people, skin is one of the places where one spends the most. Yet, protecting the skin seems to be one of the last things generally people do. So, let us see some of the tried and tested methods that would help you protect your skin, especially in adults, who have a problem maintaining and improving their skin.

Great Exercises for the Neck

If you have a double chin gently pat the skin under your chin with the back of your hand, alternating between left and right hand and curving forward or backward with each pat. If you have lipid formations, massage your neck with light pinches starting at its base and working toward the chin. You can do this as often as you want and can combine it with a more pleasurable activity like watching a movie or reading a book.
Put your elbows on the table and rest your chin against the entwined fingers of both your hands. Press your chin downwards and forwards. This will strengthen your neck.
The swan exercise is easy – act like a swan extending its neck forward and down in order to reach a piece of food.

And finally ,
another tried and fun exercise:
Grind your teeth and smile widely while tightening and releasing your lips.
Try saying something without changing your position.
This may look funny and even ridiculous to a bystander but you will soon feel the effect of the exercise in your muscles :)
