How To Get Rid Of Acne (2012-08-19 23:02)

Want to know fastest way to get rid of acne?In order to treat acne, we must first know what actually causes it, so that it can be successfully prevented.Then I will tell you scientifically proven methods to reduce and even eliminate the most persistent acneThree factors contribute to the formation of acne:Overproduction of sebumBuild up of dead skin cellsBacteria accumulating on the skinAcne occurs when oil and dead skin cells block your hair follicles. Each follicle is connected to sebaceousglands, which secrete sebum. Sebum is the waxy layer of grease on the surface of your skin. When your bodyproduces an excess amount of sebum and dead cells, the two can accumulate in the hair follicle and solidifycausing acne.I will inform you of techniques that will enable you to help cure your acne!

How To Prevent Acne (2012-08-19 23:03)

The simplest way to get rid of acne is to prevent any occurring in the first place. This means our main goalis to reduce the amount of sebum produced.Keep your pores clear by exfoliating regularly, followed by a product which will help peel away blackheads.Look for medicated products containing resorcinol, salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide.I recommend using a face scrub with ’micro-beads’ two or three times a week and use a special face wash forblemish prone skin every day, but ensure you COMPLETELY wash all of the residue off! The best time towash your face is when you wake up and before you go to sleep.Adding vitamin A to your diet with cod liver oil or in supplement form can reduce your acne - this is becauseVitamin A controls sebaceous gland activity and affects the quality of sebum. Take 10,000 IU of vitamin Atwice a day; for optimum results take 400 IU of vitamin E once a day as vitamin E aids in the uptake ofvitamin A.Studies have shown that participants who had a diet supplemented with Glabridin experienced a reduction inthe amount of acne they suffered from. This supplement acts as an anti-androgen which means it reduces theeffect hormones have on the sebaceous glands and affects the quality of sebum. Another bonus of Glabridin

is that it is an anti-inflammatory. Glabridin is a supplement derived from licorice and can be found in mostlarger health stores or online.The use of sunlight as a cure for acne is still being debated. Some experts believe that it is benifical as itencourages peeling which clears blocked pores, however others say that there is a link between sun exposureand rates of acne; this may be due to skin damage and a thicker later of skin forming which can block sebacousglands. My advice would be to test it for yourself and see if sunlight in moderation helps or aggravates youracne.Avoiding popping your pimples as this can leave scars on the skin and can cause the area to become infected.

What Triggers An Outbreak of Acne? (2012-08-19 23:03)

The triggers are mainly hormonal reasons which is why we many of us get acne during puberty. Stress isknown to aggravate the skin because it increases levels of certain hormones such as cortisol. These hormonesthen increase the amount of sebum our skin produces which then causes acne.There’s no scientific basis to the idea that diet or particular foods make acne worse (for example, chocolate,fatty or fried foods), although some people have allergies to certain types of food which can aggravate acne.A study conducted by Harvard School of Public Health found a link between dairy consumption and acne,therefore it may be helpful to limit your intake of milk. However it was believed that the hormones used inmilk production affected the particpants hormones which contributed to overactive sebaceous glands and thatit was not the milk itself.Common triggers for acne include:Exams, new relationships and other forms of stressThe time just before a period startsPregnancyCertain cosmetics and medicinesTo reduce stress you should exercise 3 times a week (also sweat clears your pores) and ensure you take partin an activity that relives stress and makes you happy, such as watching TV, listening to music or socialising.

The Fastest Way To Get Rid Of Acne (2012-08-19 23:05)

Many historians agree that before the 1900’s there were no records of skin conditions such as acne. Thismeans that acne is a relatively new problem which must be as a result of our modern lifestyles.Cosmetic products are useful for helping your blemishes, but unfortunately they aren’t a permanent solutionas they may not eradicate your acne and persistant zits may return. If you have tried ’acne clearing products’before and achieved no results, then I know a secret that will completely erardicate your acne very quickly.After researching for natural acne solutions for many years I came across a new, clinically researched systemthat was backed by an astounding amount of nutritional expertise. I read the guide thoroughly and as soonas I began reading I knew that this was different from all of the other useless, garbage on the internet -it contained scientifically proven methods that had even managed to help people with severe acne. Afterwinning awards for it’s high success rate and with thousands of people praising the guide, I knew this wasfinally the CURE to acne that we all needed! I noticed results within days and within a month my persistentacne was completely gone. I was so happy and relieved!

How to remove Dark Circles (2012-08-20 22:27)

Stress, too much caffeine, or a lack of sleep not only leave you in a bad mood, but also with a set of darkcircles and bags under your eyes. That blue and reddish coloring is an indicator of poor health, and eventhough there are plenty of products promising to zap away those dark circles overnight, there are some naturalremedies to help you get back on track. If you’re suffering from that raccoon look after another late night,take heed of these natural ways to remove those dark circles effectively:1. Drink 8-10 glasses of water per day.Yet another benefit of that daily chug of h20 is dark circle reduction. If you can’t break away from thecaffeine habit, this is even more important. Water helps keep toxins out of your cells making them healthyand vibrant. You’ll also enjoy the side effect of healthier skin in the process. 2. Make sure you’re gettingthat multivitiman. B-vitamins, iron, and Vitamin E are essential for healthy skin. Your dark circles willdisappear after just a few days with a vitamin E boost. 3. Chamomile tea bags. Soak some chamomiletea bags in hot water, then rinse in cool water to create an eye-pack. Just putting these on your eyes forabout 20 minutes will help reduce puffiness and can help diminish dark circles quickly. 4. Drink your OJ.Vitamin C plays a significant role in skin health, and if you’re not getting enough of this vitamin in yourdiet, you’re limiting your chances that fresh glow each morning. Improve your diet with a vitamin-C infuseddrink or supplement, or simply add a few oranges or grapefruit to your daily fruit intake. 5. Cool off withcucumber. Sliced cucumber on your eyes isn’t an old wives tale, and is still used at many high-end spasand luxury facial treatments today. Just a couple of ice cold slices on your eyes will help reduce puffiness andtighten and tone the undereye area. 6. Use Vitamin K-infused cream. Vitamin K helps to fix brokencapillaries, and applying a thin layer once or twice per day can help you take care of this sensitive area withease. Look for organic products to avoid unnecessary chemicals and toxic ingredients. 7. Go salt-free. Toomuch salt usually leads to fluid-retention, which in turn can lead to puffiness under your eyes. While drinkingwater will help you flush out toxins, reducing your salt intake will also do the trick. You’ll notice a visiblechange in just a day. Dark circles under the eyes are more prominent on aging skin since the area becomes sodelicate and thin. Improving skin tone with water, a healthy diet, and exercise can help reduce or diminishdark circles naturally, but when those stressful times and late nights start to add up, just take care of theproblem with a natural remedy for long-term benefits.

How to get rid of Blackheads (2012-08-20 22:39)

Blackheads are one of the biggest skin problems that most college-age women face.

important for getting rid of blackheads because it goes into your pores to clean out the excess oil and deadskin cells that make up blackheads.Do a clay mask once a week – This is only for those of you with oily or combination skin. Dry skin,obviously, needs all the oil it can get. Blackheads are partially caused by excess oil on your face, so if youhave greasy skin, a good quality clay mask will help sop up some of the grease and keep your pores clearer.Using it once a week is enough – you don’t want to over-dry your skin, because this could lead to even moreproblems!Don’t bother with a pore strip – First of all, they’re basically useless for getting rid of anything that’sstuck deep in your pores. Second of all, they can actually damage your skin! I know these things look likemiracle products, but save your money because they aren’t really going to help.Squeeze, but do it carefully! - This is one situation where picking your face may actually help instead ofmaking things worse. Don’t take this as permission to pick at your face all you want! There is a right and awrong way to squeeze blackheads and it’s really important that you do it the right way.First, wash your face with a gentle cleanser. Next, cover your face with a warm, wet cloth for 10 to 15minutes. Pat your face dry, then wrap tissues around your fingers to prevent slippage. Use GENTLE pressureto press down then up around the sides of the blackhead. If nothing happens after one or two tries, stop.That means the blackhead isn’t ready to come out yet. Whatever you do, don’t pinch, use your nails or presstoo hard. This can damage your skin and might even lead to scars!See a dermatologist – If all else fails, a derm can really help you out. They can prescribe things likeRetin-A, antibiotics or Accutane, which can all help with blackheads. Procedures like microdermabrasion arealso said to be effective, but I recommend trying the above steps first because the problem can usually clearitself up without these extreme treatments.At the end of the day, blackheads are kind of an ongoing battle. For those of us who are prone to them, lightmakeup, gentle cleansers and BHA treatments are necessary to get rid of them and keep them away. Thereisn’t any magical cure that will rid you of them forever, but taking good care of you skin on an ongoing basiswill work wonders.

Harsh chemicals in these colours can cause itching and rashes, which canlead to eczemas upon scratching. “Dry skin leaves a lot of scope for these harmful chemicals as the skin layerallows the colour to penetrate easily,” says Dr Thomas.Use natural, skin-friendly and herbal colors or the ones made by reputed companies using naturalproducts.Here are some tips to protect your skin:Wear clothes that can cover maximum part of the body and apply a thick layer of a good quality moisturiseror oil on your skin. Use more of red or pink colours, which can easily be taken off. Gaudy ones like purple,green, yellow, orange have more harmful chemicals in them and should be avoided.Hair is very prone to getting spoiled with these chemical colours. It can turn brittle and extremely dry if thecolours remain unwashed for long. Though no serious damage is caused in the roots or scalp, yet hair tendsto break. Apply a nice layer of oil to your hair before playing Holi and try to protect it with a cap or hat.If some kind of irritation occurs, then immediately wash off colour from that part of body and apply asoothing calamine lotion. Avoid sunlight if the skin is severely affected.How to remove colour after playing Holi:Cleaning the skin and hair after playing with colours is very important. Do not rub the skin vigorously withsoaps to wipe the face of gulal, instead opt for a cleanser. Follow this up with lots of moisturiser, speciallyones that are meant for sensitive skin.Avoid using kerosene, petrol and spirits to remove stains, as they will make your skin dry.Rejuvenate your skin with a scrub of soyabean flour or gram flour with milk. A mixture of sea salt, glycerineand a few drops of aroma oil have anti-bacterial and anti-fungal effect and can take care of removing chemicalcolours.

How to Get Back the Shine in Your Hair (2012-08-23 22:04)

If your hair is getting frizzier by the day and conditioning gives it only a temporary reprieve, the real culpritcould be keratin loss. “Seasonal changes cause keratin in the hair to degenerate,” says Dr Arvind Posval, hairtransplant surgeon. According to the Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics: Hair starts growing from a ‘bulb’lodged just under the skin. The root of a hair is made up of cells, which are bulging with keratin. There aretwo types of keratin: I and II. These intertwine to form long coils, which accumulate in hair.What causes keratin damage?Hair quality depends on chemical bonds between keratins, and these bonds are easily broken by water or evenhumidity. This is why wet hair should not be brushed. However, conditioners can smoothen and re-form thesebonds. Keratin is important for straight, glossy hair. Avani Shah, hairstylist, Mad-o-Wot, Mumbai, says,“Keratin loss is essentially protein loss. Keratin gets damaged due to extreme weather conditions, styling,poor diet and hormonal changes. But it is possible to repair the damage.”Get back the shine

Though there are no food supplements or foods that specifically target the growth of keratin, multivitaminsupplements do help. However, it is not possible to supplement keratin externally through shampoos orsprays. At best, one can undergo a nanogen treatment, in which keratin is electrostatically bonded to thehair, thus making it denser till the next wash. The good news is that there are some products availabletoday to restore shine and suppleness. Women with damaged hair can undergo keratin treatment at thesalon, followed by regular use of keratin-based shampoo and conditioner. A few keratin-based hair productsavailable in India are made by Cord, Keretec and Lasio. There is no side effect of these products. The marketfor keratin hair products is quite new. But there haven’t been any side effects so far. Also, the products arechemical-free and made from organic vegetables, so they can be safely used on damaged hair.

Skin Care Tips Specially for Teenagers (2012-08-28 05:01)

As teen girls, we know that we need to take care of our skin. However, it’s harder than it seems. Here’s howto have a good skin care regime for teenage girls!When you wake up in the morning, wash your face. This will take away any sweat and oil that has builtup over the night. It will also wake you up a bit more as well as give you a shine-free face for the morning.When washing your face, never use soap, unless is it specific soap for facewashing. This is a mistake that

32

Page 33: Beauty Blog

many girls make. Normal soap that we use to wash our hands and body can irritate the pores on the faceand help acne and pimples get started! When washing your face, use a special facial cleanser or even justwater and a cloth, which will be enough to keep the loose skin, oil, and dirt to an acceptable level.Don’t worry about aggressively removing oil or other matter from the surface. Acne is a problem of excessiveoil production and clogs within pores, not a problem of surface obstruction of pores.In the morning, after you’ve eaten breakfast and brushed your teeth, apply lip balm. This is importantespecially if you have chapped lips, but even if you don’t, it’s still a good idea, just to keep your lips lookingsmooth and kissable.Put on a bit of hand cream. If you have dry skin on your hands, put some hand cream on in the morning.Just make sure that you don’t put on too much, since it will make your hands oily and slippery.During the school day, you don’t need to worry about your face that much. If your face gets really oily, buysome special tissues that remove excess oil on your face (available from Mary Kay as well as other companies).Don’t wash your face during the day! (More on that later)Nightime is a crucial point for skin care, since it’s a window of opportunity to do so much to help your skin.First, cleanse your skin. Buy a facial cleanser. They help remove dirt, oil, and other pore-blockers. Mostcleansers will both cleanse and exfoliateyour skin, which are two steps in the ’5 Steps to great skin’(more onthat later as well).After cleansing, moisturize! For teenagers, this is something that can help you have beautiful skin if doneright, or give you loads of acne if done wrong. Make sure when you’re buying a facial moisturizer, that...It’s actually a FACIAL moisturizer, and...It’s LIGHTWEIGHT. Lightweight means that it’s not heavy and oily, so it won’t add to the oil on your skinor clog your pores. This is very important!After that, apply some lip balm.Then apply the lotions. If your legs are dry from shaving them, moisturize them. The moisturizer you buyfor your legs doesn’t matter. Just don’t use a lightweight moisturizer on them because it won’t help. If yourhands are dry, this is a great time to apply LOTS and LOTS of hand cream, since it has hours and hours tosoak into your skin.Voila! You have a great skin care regime! Repeat from step 1 to 8 everyday for great-looking skin!TipsDrink LOTS of water! Drink as much water as you can (you’re supposed to have 8 glasses a day). Water willleave your skin looking hydrated and rejuvenalized!As mentioned above, follow the ’5 Steps to Great Skin’. These 5 steps are: CLEANSING, EXFOLIATING,TONING, MOISTURIZING, and PROTECTING. Dermatologists have done studies that show that womenwho follow these steps have beautiful, clear skin that STAYS clear.Another thing mentioned above is not to wash your face more than 2 times a day. Many girls think thatwashing your face dozens of times a day will take all the oil off of their faces and reduce pimples, but that’sactually not true! In fact, washing your face more than twice a day will dry out your skin, which will actuallycause it to produce MORE oil to make up for the lost oil. Washing your face more than twice a day actuallybackfires!Eat lots of fruits and vegetables. Eating healthy keeps your skin looking nice. The face-care instructionsshould work for anyone susceptible to pimples, whether or not teenaged or a girl.WarningsMake sure that you’re not allergic to any of the products that you will be using on your face. If your skin issensitive, do a test run by putting a little bit of the product on one small part of your face to make sure thatyou don’t get a rash/irratation from it.This skin regime may not work on everyone’s skin, depending on how oily/dry your face gets. Customize itand make it your own. This article is only a basic guideline. Consult a dermatologist to get a custom-madeskin care regime for you.An urban myth is that not wearing sunscreen on your face will help take away zits, since the sun will dry outthe oil. This is not true. It actually functions the same way as washing your face more than twice a day- youwill dry out your face, but in an effort to get back the lost oil, your face will produce extra oil. Also, not

33

wearing sunscreen can increase your chances (sometimes dramatically) or getting skin cancer (SO not worthit just to take away a couple pimples). Make sure you wear sunscreen in the summer, just buy a lightweightsunscreen for your face.Keep in mind, your skin will not look like the picture posted to this article. Skin blemishes, acne, oil, anddryness are all completely natural and normal. That photo is obviously a photomanipulation. Learn aboutwhat suits you best, since everyone’s skin is different. The point of treating your skin is to keep it healthy bykeeping yourself healthy. Your skin will reflect your health.

How to be a Classy Girl (2012-08-28 05:20)

Being classy is not about being stuck up, it is about having style and taking care to be polite to others andto reflect a genuine interest in them. As well as to be classy, is also about being confident in yourself andhappy with who you are. This article will teach you how to move through life with class and ease. When youare done reading this article, you should know how to be classy, or: selfless, generous, compassionate andresponsible.Choose your battles and choose your friends. Few battles are truly worth fighting. Stand up for those whocannot stand up for themselves (mentally disabled, animals, children, etc.) Be wary of those who appear toenjoy bickering. If someone is rude to you, either ignore him or her completely or, once you have calmeddown and are thinking clearly, explain how you perceived their actions and work towards a resolution. Youcan also treat them politely while still maintaining your personal stance- be polite but make it clear withoutbeing intentionally hurtful or nasty that you don’t appreciate what they are doing. Never stoop to their level,and do not be hasty to make judgments of other people. Surround yourself with positive, polite people whoencourage and live your classy, intelligent lifestyle.Have a sense of style. Being in fashion is a must. Try to read more fashion magazines to learn what kindsof clothing go well together and how to put together a classy outfit. Be sure to create your own fashionand have your own style, because it’s not right to wear something that isn’t you. It’s often better to havea basic personal style than to always be chasing the latest ”fad” look. Have good taste in clothing: Bemodest in clothing and avoid clothing of bad taste. Extremely low necklines, too short skirts, belly-bearingtops and revealing clothing can make a girl look like she does not respect her body and herself. Shirts withinappropriate sayings, logos or sexual innuendos can make a girl look like she’s desperate for attention. Classyladies are not desperate for attention.Have good hygiene. Remember to always be clean: run a comb throughyour hair, keep your nails dirt-free and neat, brush your teeth and bathe or shower. When spraying perfume,be sure to use it sparingly. Excessive use of perfume isn’t attractive and does not improve your hygiene,despite popular belief. Being clean is important; being grubby isn’t classy and isn’t pleasing. Never havegreasy hair. It is gross and trashy.Take care of your skin. Skin should be well-cared for and clear of imperfections. Wash your face everydayand remember to wear sunscreen or shade hats. Try to give yourself a facial mask once a week.Never crackyour knuckles. Other people may find the habit annoying or manly.Speak calmly. This shows politeness. If you talk loudly, it will seem that you’re desperate for attention.Being loud in public isn’t just obnoxious, it is also inconsiderate to the people around you. Listen to whatpeople have to say and always make eye contact.Never slouch. Having good posture is an important, and rare, trait. It can also improve your overall health.Behave. It’s fun to attend a party, but leave immature and irresponsible behavior out of the equation. Ifyou’re at a party, be sure to socialize, but speak calmly and don’t monopolize all the attention. If you drink,keep drinking minimal and in your tolerance level. Drunk ladies are not classy ladies. If you are underage,DONOT DRINK.Develop conversation skills. Classy ladies don’t talk about sexual immorality and other trashy topics. Rather,they may talk about intellectual topics (books, art, politics/current events) or fashion and travel.Increase your

34

Page 35: Beauty Blog

vocabulary, and stay away from slang terms. Never swear or say racist, homophobic, or otherwise bigotedcomments. This will only make you appear ugly and rude.Smile. Classy people are friendly people, those who always brighten their faces with a smile. It’s aninexpensive way to improve your looks. Be nice. If you’re classy and want to be liked, you have to be nice.It’s much better to be liked by people, so being nice and treating others well certainly helps. Being snobbyisn’t very classy, since it is an inherently rude quality, and classy people are not rude. Always be kind andfriendly to the people serving you (waiters, etc.). If you really want to know who is well brought up andclassy, look at how they treat those with a lower social status, rather than how they respond to their equalsor superiors.Hair should be neat, clean, and simple. Loose waves with a hair band or even a ponytail are very appropriatein today’s society. Flips, Bobs and Shags are classic, versatile, easy to wear hairstyles for today’s youngwoman.Take care of more than just your appearance. Parents will appreciate a girl who cares more about hereducation and her work ethic than her nails. This will reflect in how you are viewed by those in authority.Be responsible. Classy girls leave their surroundings in a condition at least as good as they found them.Unless they are in a restaurant with wait staff whose job it is to do the clearing up, classy people insist ontaking care of their own trash and baggage, not expecting others to pick up after them. And when others dofavors for them, while stuck-up or spoiled people assume it’s only to be expected and ignore others’ assistance,truly classy people are quick to notice and to express their gratitude and their appreciation.Be socially aware. You must be courteous, but do not bend over backwards to please others. If you do,you may find yourself being taken advantage of in the future. Limit your time and availability and drawboundaries with others so that they are aware of your limits.Choose your words wisely. The classy lady listens more than she speaks. Having a strong vocabulary isimportant, but do not use a word unless you are certain of its meaning. Use words to express yourselflucidly. Also, do not correct others when they use improper grammar. Differences in background, family life,and education cause people to speak differently, and people often use slang for effect. More than this, it isirritating and degrading to be corrected by a know-it-allKnow what you’re talking about. Intelligence is key. You don’t have to be a book worm to be intelligent andyou don’t have to show off, but ignorance of current events is not becoming to a classy girl. Brush up on asmany subjects as possible, because it will make you seem well-informed.Don’t swear. Most people will agree that using swear words casually exhibits an inconsistent state ofcharacter. You will be much more impressive and impacting toward others when you use curse words lessoften, or remove them from your vocabulary entirely.Be assertive, but not domineering. Avoid passive-aggressive thinking; this is likely to trip you up eventually.Being calmly assertive demonstrates maturity, thoughtfulness, and confidence. Class requires balance, andassertiveness is a prime example of this concept.Find the classic colors that work best with your complexion and eye color. For example:Blue eyes: Orange (complementary), Dark Blue, Dark Purple Light Green, Grey, white, Black, Turquoise(analogous) Blue-Purple (analogous),Dark Red. Colors to avoid are: bright red, lime green, hot pink, brown,baby blue, any tints (colors visibly mixed with white)Brown eyes: Any Pink, Charcoal, any very dark color, Yellow (it brings out undertones in the eyes, despiteit’s undignified reputation) Green (also, undertones). Colors to avoid: none, brown is neutral, and so goeswith everything.Green eyes: Purple (it really does bring out the color of your eyes), Dark red (green’s complimentary color),dark blue, black, Brown, off-white. Colors to avoid: Grey, since it weighs down the natural tones in your iris,muting the color. However, if your eyes are bright green or blue green, gray brings it out quite nicely. Yellow,bright red (compliments can be jarring when both of the colors are vivid), bright white (too John Travolta),orange, and green (which drowns out your eye color).Black eyes: any color.Skin Tones: Ruddy Complexion blue-toned/pink after exertion/freckled): Cool colors (blue, purple, green,

35

and all the analogous colors between them including Red-purple) Black, Grey. Colors to avoid: Yellow, andthe corresponding analogous colors, any red (sorry)and White. Wear dark orange or red-orange at yourdiscretion. Sallow (yellow toned/ tanning rather than freckling) any warm or neutral colors. Avoid yellow,but golds can look nice if you are African-American or have a darker complexion, you can wear almost anycolor. Golds are especially beautiful. If you have red hair: Golds, beiges, corals, purples, very dark or lightgreens (just avoid the ”Christmas green” color) dark blues.TipsBe intelligent. A classy girl should have good topics to talk about . So study about things that you findinteresting and important for life. Read books and improve your vocabulary, and don’t use the word ”like”all the time; it’s a sign of poor education and nervousness. People will admire you because you’re smartand have confidence that may be very convenient to you. Value your virtues. If you have any good skillor kind of talent, such as drawing, or dancing, singing or playing any musical instrument, do not hide it,work it. Let people see how good you are by exposing your pictures, or maybe playing a musical instrumentin front of someone. If you’re good at acting, look for a part in any play at theater. Tattoos and BodyPiercings- Appearances convey a strong message to others; you can be judged by an individual or rightbefore an event that will play a prominent role in your future (e.g. a prospective employer, acquiring a higherposition in a reputable company, etc.). Therefore, take careful consideration when deciding if it is a goodideal for you to get visible tattoos or body piercings. Even though a person’s outward appearance does notautomatically show his or her true inner qualities, appearances can reflect how a person is willing to beperceived by the world. Also keep in mind that although tattoos and piercings are individual expressions,they can be permanent or difficult (even costly) to remove if you change your mind in the future. If you arein doubt about how tattoos and piercings may impact you in the future, forget about getting them and findother ways to show self expression, such as creating works of art, poetry, hobbies, etc. Don’t dye your hairan unnatural color. Avoid also unnecessary piercings or getting tattooed. (If you choose to get a tattoo,get something that is looked upon as beautiful or poetic, like ’Let it Be’ on the back of your neck. Don’t getthe name of your favorite band, genitals, or things of that nature.) Smile. It’s the most generous things youcan do.WarningsYou might be called a snob. Just ignore them; whoever says that just may be insecure, and envious that theydon’t have class and values. Changing your behavior may feel unnatural. If it does, remind yourself that youare a work in progress. A classy person is simply one who consistently exhibits classy behavior. Focus onyour behavior and attitude rather than your feelings. If you slip up, forgive yourself, apologize to anyonewho may have been hurt by your not-so-classy behavior, and continue on your way. That’s classy! Don’tbe sassy. Being disrespectful of others is never classy.Make an honest effort to make a difference in someone’s life, regardless of their social status.

How to get rid of Black Dark Lips (2012-08-29 05:16)

Long-term use of lipsticks — especially lower-quality lip colors — can permanently darken lips over time,due to the harsh chemicals in the cosmetics. But there are some things you can do yourself to help lightendark lips and remove some of the staining that the makeup can cause.Stop using the products. If you continue using the lipsticks that caused the problem in the first place, you’llonly make the darkening worse.Try lime and honey. A mixture of lime juice, honey, and glycerine, applied regularly, could help lightendark lips. You’ll need to apply it every day for several weeks before you see any positive effects.Consider almonds, butter, and milk. After you wash your lips, apply almond milk, almond oil, or creammade from milk, and let it stay on your lips for at least one hour. Continue using this treatment daily forseveral weeks to lighten your lips.Experiment with other natural ingredients. Some experts suggest beetroot, pomegranate, or coriander juiceto lighten lips. To make coriander juice, grind up some coriander leaves in a blender.Moisturize your lips. Keeping your lips moisturized can help make them appear lighter. You can trynatural lip softeners like clarified butter or over-the-counter products like Vaseline to help condition your lipsand lighten them. Apply either of these to your lips at night and as needed during the day to help moisturizeand protect them.Use lemons. Lemon juice is well known for its skin-lightening abilities. You can make a paste of equal partslemon juice, graham flour, yogurt, and honey, and rub it onto your lips. Leave the paste on your lips for ahalf hour, then wash it off.Keep your lips covered. Use sunscreen to protect your lips — the sun can increase the amount of pigmentin your lips, making them even darker.Limit your exposure to other potential skin darkeners. Cigarettes, coffee, and tea do more than stain teeth— they can also darken lips. Give your lips a break from these potential stainers.Consult a doctor.

Diet and acne, many people say that foods don’t affect acne, some people say it does. Well, they are bothright in my opinion. All depends how your body, your skin reacts to certain foods and what skin type youhave - if you don’t have acne problem, foods may not cause you problems, but for those with acne problem,certain foods can make it worst.

if you are reading this article I assume that you have acne problem, bigger or smaller, anyway it affects yourlife some way and you are looking for solution. My advice is - you should care what you eat, you shouldavoid certain foods, and you should have your eyes open and observe if your acne problem is getting worseafter eating certain foods - because each of us may react different and what we can do is to observe our ownbodies, simply to know our bodies like we know our favorite movie. Sounds strange? Believe me, so many ofus don’t know own body, especially how certain foods affect it.In my opinion, foods are so important in our life and if we can, we always should care what we eat to makeour internal systems stronger, it’s hard to see how internal organs look like, but if they work properly we willbe healthy. I want to give you an example about something you can see: if you want to build strong body, bigmuscles and be simply strong man (or woman)! You have to exercise, practice, give your body muscles properstimulation, it will make your body stronger - adding special foods into that, your body will be stronger evenfaster, because of proper nutrition. In acne battle is the same, just food is even more important. It’s good touse other treatments, like: proper cleansing, antibiotics and effective lotions - but without proper dietaryplan, they will not be as sufficient as they could be - even if you will get rid of acne using antibiotics, it maycome back after a while if your diet is bad and you have to answer if you want to go for acne antibioticsagain?I guess you know that antibiotics always have some side effects. Read about the causes of acne and somecrucial rules to follow to get rid of acne (one of them is to avoid certain foods - there are four more ruleslisted there).It’s great to start with restricted diet and after a while, when your acne problem is getting smaller, you cantry with foods that you removed from your menu, maybe it will not affect you - you will observe. Therealways should be balance, between what to eat and what not to eat, sometimes we just like so much foodswe should avoid and we have to let go our restrictions, we shouldn’t be to hard on ourselves with our dietsbut it’s great to know what food causes what problems in our body and be able to accept cause and effect,and most important, always smile on the way!So let’s go to the most important part, to the list of foods that may cause the acne problem:List of foods you should remove from your acne diet:Nuts - and products that are made with nuts: such as peanut butterChocolates - in any formsCola and other dark drinks - it’s ok to drink light colored sodasSpicy foods - especially if you use sauces you buy in stores, homemade chilli sauce with fresh peppers are notthat bad.Salty foods - like french fries, chips and other. If you want to eat salt, please use it while cookingPizza - oops!Dairy productsLess sugar - it may cause problems, so consume less sweet products - I know it’s hardLess fried foods - again something with ”less”. So enjoy fried foods, but not all the timeWell, I hope you are not depressed now! In the list you can see ”less sugar” and ”less fried foods” - I wouldrecommend to remove sugar and fried foods for some days to see how your body reacts and then include abit if wanted.Feel that there is nothing left to eat? Well it’s simply not true. I will give you in case the list of foods youcan eat and it’s the same long!Stay with that list of foods to help acne problem:MeatChickenFishVegetables and fruitsCereals and grainsCoffee and teaBread
