article: These types of polishes and waxes work the same way on lenses as they do on other surfaces. They are often highly effective at removing scratches from sunglasses, especially lenses made from plastic. Never use any abrasive or acidic cleaners as these will damage your glasses and leave residue that's harmful to your eyes. A soft, lint-free cloth is also suitable in this situation. Don't use any coarse materials such as steel wool, brass wool, sponges, or plastic mesh pads. These only damage your sunglasses further. Using the soft cloth or cotton ball, rub the liquid onto the scratch using gentle, circular motions for about 10 seconds. Polish and wax can help fill in any existing scratches on your lenses. Make sure it's dry, as this cloth will be used to remove the polish or wax. Using your thumb and forefinger, gently rub away any remaining traces of polish or wax from the lens. Place the sunglasses under a light and inspect for any remaining scratches. Put the sunglasses back on your face to make sure there aren't any scratches in your field of vision. If the scratch is still visible on the lens, re-apply the cotton ball or cloth with the wax/polish, and gently clean the scratch again until it is fully removed.

article: In some cases, people with high cortisol levels become sick easier than people with lower levels. This is because cortisol suppresses the immune system as a way to save energy and use it to combat stress. In addition, some research indicates that anxiety may also be related to lowered immunity. Wash your hands frequently and take care when you are around people with colds and other contagious illnesses. For example, you may want to 'fist bump' instead of shaking hands with your sniffling co-worker. Get regular health check-ups and recommended immunizations. For example, consider getting flu and pneumonia vaccines. You may want to take supplements such as vitamins C, B6, E, and also zinc and magnesium. These micro-nutrients have been reported to support immune health. One of the commons effects of high stress, high cortisol levels, and anxiety is trouble sleeping. And, in turn, trouble sleeping can leave you feeling tired, confused, and irritable which can make you feel more stressed and raise your cortisol levels and anxiety. Try to get enough sleep each night to feel rested the next day. Create a sleep routine that allows you to get six to eight hours of sleep each night. For example, you might have to go to bed an hour or so earlier to make sure you're getting at least six hours of sleep. Try to start preparing for bed about an hour in advance in order to relax yourself. For instance, an hour before you go to bed you might take a bath and read a book while having some apple cider. Make sure that you avoid light from screens, such as from your phone, television, or computer before bedtime. The blue light that these screens emit can interfere with your sleep. Physical activity is a great way to boost your overall health as well as manage stress, high cortisol, and anxiety. Being active can calm you, energize you, reduce tension, and help address the heart disease, weight gain, and belly fat associated with high cortisol levels. Low intensity exercise has been found in some studies to lower cortisol levels. Consider taking a daily walk, trying Pilates, or giving tai chi a try. Some research suggests that physical activity may also help manage anxiety. Consistently high cortisol levels have been related to digestive problems and weight issues. In addition, eating processed, high fat foods has been related to increased anxiety. Although there is no food that can eliminate stress from your life, there are certain foods that can boost your overall health and that have specific benefits that can help lower your cortisol levels and your anxiety. Include healthy proteins like lean white meats, nuts, and beans in your meals and snacks. They contain tryptophan which helps your body make serotonin which helps you feel calmer. Berries like strawberries, raspberries, or blueberries contain phytonutrients and antioxidants that boost your immune system. Most seafood contains omega-3 fatty acids which can reduce anxiety and high cortisol levels. Leafy greens like spinach and kale are packed with folate which helps your brain make dopamine, a chemical that can help you feel less tense and more happy. Drink water, tea, and natural juices instead of drinks with lots of sugar, artificial ingredients, or caffeine. For instance, try starting your day with a glass of water. A number of research studies have investigated the effectiveness of several herbal supplements and remedies on both anxiety and cortisol levels. Although you shouldn't believe any herbal remedy that claims it will 'cure' you permanently, there are herbal supplements that do have proven benefits when it comes to lower cortisol levels and reducing anxiety. Ashwagandha, an Indian herb, has been found in some studies to decrease both cortisol levels and feelings of anxiety. Some research suggests that phosphatidylserine, a natural occurring compound in the body, may lower cortisol levels and decrease anxiety.

Fill the sphere with very light shading. Smooth the shading with a cotton ball or tissue. Add more shading to areas of the sphere that the light source minimally reaches. Repeat smoothing out the shading with a cotton ball or tissue. Darken the outer edges of the sphere, particularly on the bottom and opposite side of the light source. Smooth the darkened shading again. Make the crescent edge opposite the light source the darkest. Rub your cotton ball or tissue over the dark crescent at the bottom to smooth it one last time. Clean up the edges of the sphere by erasing any smudges that escaped the edges."

This is a basic method for drawing a sphere, so minimal materials are needed. Sketch pad or paper Pencil Cotton balls or tissues Circular object You can use a small bowl, a glass, a mug, or another object with a circular shape or base. Tracing the circular object allows you to focus on shading the sphere rather than on learning how to draw a perfect circle. Once you decide the angle from which your light source will come, draw an arrow toward the circle from that direction. You will later leave an untouched spot on the sphere, below that arrow, to signify the highlight from the light source. Avoid pressing too hard with your pencil while you shade, as this is your first layer of shading. You will add additional layers of darker shading in later steps. Leave the circular or oval-shaped spot untouched, below where the arrow points from the direction of the light source. Gently rub over the light shading, taking care not to smear the graphite out of the edges of your circle. Remember to leave your highlight spot untouched, so also take care not to smear graphite into that area. Gently shade again around most of the circle, making darker shading on the sides of the sphere where the light source cannot reach. This shading is called the mid-tone. Around the middle of your sphere, you should have about medium tones of shading. Again, take care to avoid smearing the highlight spot and smearing outside the edges of the circle. The light source cannot reach these areas, so naturally, they should be darker. As you get further from the light source, the shading should get darker. However, they should not be as dark at the space directly below the sphere. Maintaining a smooth-looking sphere is important in order to help it look realistic. Use your cotton ball or tissue to do this. This is the final shading step, creating the core shadow. Shade the border moderately dark, and taper it into a crescent shape before tapering off on the other side. Keep this darkest area of shading close to the bottom edge of the sphere; it should be no more than centimeter in thickness. This will help to blend the core shadow into the rest of the sphere. You might also have stray line marks that went outside the edges. Take care not to erase anything within your sphere.
