noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sun, 24 Jun 2018 20:25:00 +0000

Hi Guys!
Today i will b talking about most problematic type of skin The oily skin
i have struggled soo such with my oily skin as it is acne prone & open pores prone. Moreover T zone looks soo slippery after wearing makeup
specially in summer if you have oily skin & you have to wear makeup all day long, the struggle is real
i will discuss few hacks for oily skin that you need to know. these hacks will keep your skin flawless & shine free!

1. Deep cleansing

cleansing is most important thing in your skin care routine. If you are cleansing your face properly, it is going to remove all extra oil, sebum, impurities & residual makeup that just lodge into your pores
For cleansing the choice of cleanser is also very important. you need a cleanser that just not dries your skin, clean it & hydrate it
Don't use a cleanser that removes all of oil & make skin super dry.
cleanse your face daily. This is going to help you alot

2. Moisturizer

use moisturizer before applying makeup. if you have oily skin & you think moisturizer is going to give you a greasy look, you are wrong!
use a moisturizer that hydrate your skin. If yiu have oily skin & you remove all extra oily from yiur face by washing it, your face is going to go crazy & produce more oil than usual. so trick your skin by applying moisturizer that is not too greasy or sticky before applying your primer

3. Primer

if you have oily skin, i will suggest you to use primer & setting spray before applying makeup foundation. primer basically makes a barrier between your skin & foundation. it keeps your makeup intact for longer period of time

4.Matte foundations

if you have oily skin, you should avoid using foundations that have glowy, satin or dewy finish
you need matte finish foundation soo it lasts longer on your skin

5.Beauty blenders

Start using beauty blenders. it pushes the foundation into your skin & set it for airbrush look

6. Translucent Setting powder

you need to bake your makeup products at few areas. Use a damp beauty blender for applying setting powder
press the setting powder into your skin & this is going to keep your makeup oil free for really long time

7.Bloating papers

these are like tissue papers. if you have too much oil on your makeup & you don't want touch ups just take a paper & press it on oily area, like T zone,bloating paper will absorb the extra oil

Is Microblading worth this hype? why you need touch ups

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Thu, 21 Jun 2018 14:00:00 +0000

Microblading is semi permanent tattooing of eyebrows that fills in thin eyebrow areas to make them look fuller. Unlike a traditional tattoo, which is permanent, the coloring from microblading may last for up to 3 years. This is because microblading uses different tools and a smaller amount of pigment.

Microblading is said to offer natural looking and defined eyebrows. The initial procedure may take up to 2 hours and the eyebrows will appear darker immediately after the initial treatment which will fade in a week

Microblading is done with microblade tool to apply color pigments that look like real hairs. which is applied after applying numbing cream. the process is actually not painful but you may experience discomfort

but the question is
the results worth all fatigue?

here are few other things you should know before going for procedure

Cost:

it may cost $400 to $1400 for single session

touch ups:

this procedure is not permanent & will fade away even if correctly done by expert in 3 years & you may need regular touch ups

Tattooed Appearance:

you may end up with an unnatural tattooed appearance of eyebrows after 7 days

Infection:

As it involves bladding tool it can cause serious skin infection & if the tool is not properly sterilized it can even transmit infections

pigments:

It is also important to remember that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) do not regulate the color additive substances of the pigments used in these cosmetic practices.

As far as i have researched many people are happy with results but do you think having fuller eyebrows worth taking all risks?

Recent japan's earthquake will cause larger earthquake?

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Thu, 21 Jun 2018 13:27:00 +0000

earthquake measuring 6.1 magnitude rocked Osaka in Japan few days ago causing both injuries and death.

A particularly earthquake-prone area, Japan accounts for a large number of the world’s dangerous earthquake activity.

The area has seen some devastating earthquakes, including the 2011 Boxing Day tsunami which killed 15,894 people.

The 17 June 2018 magnitude of 6.1 earthquake that struck 15 km northeast of Osaka continues to produce aftershocks and raise concerns about whether it could trigger larger earthquakes on either of two major active faults. Ruptures on either fault could strongly shake Osaka, a vibrant city of 2.7 million inhabitants.

So far, the earthquake has officially injured 200 people and killed three according to Japanese authorities.

what is the weirdest way your food order got messed up?

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Thu, 21 Jun 2018 01:02:00 +0000

You ever been to a McDonalds where the manager is an ass and the employees have had enough of it?

I once went to a Coneheads that had a mass quit a few hours later. I went up to the counter and ordered lregular fries and regular coke

They took my money and a few minutes later came back with my order, which was….heavier than normal

Looks like we accidentally supersized your order" she says with a smile. I could tell from the sarcastic tone that there was no accident about it.

I returned to my table and sat down, and noticed that my french fries wasn’t alone, there was also a chicken burger in there.

My ‘small fries’ took up an entire large fry box, and then there was about a large fries worth of loose fries in there- the entire bag was drowning in fried potato goodness.

So intentionally giving me a lot of extra food to spite your boss? That’s the strangest way my order’s ever been messed up. Part of me wished I had ordered more

Dermarollers actually work?

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Wed, 20 Jun 2018 12:41:00 +0000

Dermarollers

they have gained hype over past few years & it may appear scary to some people who are scared of needles but others have life changing experiences

but how does it work?

The concept of derma rolling or micro-needling is quite simple. Dermaroller works by creating tiny punctures into the skin to stimulate skin repair and cell regeneration. When the body sustains an injury or wound, it heals itself by creating new collagen

It can stimulate collagen and elastin, which repairs skin irregularities such as scars.
Hair loss – It can stimulate the scalp by stimulating blood flow and producing more of the hormones required to promote hair growth and increase follicle and hair size.
it can treat hyperpigmented areas
stretch marks
fine line & wrinkles, as it stimulate collagen & elastin production & increase blood flow

Micro needling was initially done by Dermatologist or in outpatient department under supervision as it can cause irritation to skin if not done properly but now they are available in market as dermarollers

Is micro needling painful?

it is not "painful" unless you are using dermaroller of 1.5mm or above which should only by done by dermatologist
but for smaller sizes it can cause slight discomfort but it is not painful.

how to choose a size?

there are different size of dermarollers & you should choose size according to you skin problem

how long it takes micro needling to show results?

it varies!

if you are doing at home & using a safe size & amount of needles it may take 4weeks to start showing results but it works

how many times a week can i use it?

for sizes that range from 0.5mm to 1.0mm you can use it twice a week

How to do micro needling at home?

step 1:

cleanse you face using a mild cleanser.

remove any dirt & impurities or makeup as it can cause infection and acne

step 2:

spray 75% alcohol on roller & wait for 5 minutes

step3:

start rolling it on your face in vertical direction

cover all your problematic areas

now roll on all areas in horizontal direction

Don't roll on same area for more than 5 times as it can cause skin irritation

step 4:

Apply soothing oils

Precautions:

use any sunscreen to prevent sun damage after using it

I'm personally using this dermaroller for 2 months now & i can feel difference in my scars

Dairy bad for skin?

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 19 Jun 2018 22:10:00 +0000

Is dairy A cause of acne?

many people around us thinks dairy products are a key cause for bad skin and on other hand they are our "go to" for calcium & potassium

The scientific link between dairy and skin health is relatively small. Some propose that dairy promotes insulin and IGF1 production as seen in carbohydrate-rich diets, or that it contains growth hormones which increase androgen levels that in turn cause oil glands to produce more sebum, both of which could hypothetically cause flare-ups for skin conditions.
there is definitely no clear links between dairy products & Acne

Allergies are other issue, they present as rashes & inflammation If you suspect that dairy is the cause of skin issues then attempt to cut it out and keep a food diary, making note of your skin condition following this. However, for most people the causes behind conditions such as acne are complex and so simply cutting out dairy or changing your diet may not be sufficient or significant enough to clear up your skin.

Being a Doctor i would suggest you to visit a dermatologist before making changes in your diet

Dairy alternatives such as soy, almond and coconut milk can sometimes be sweetened with sugar to make them taste more like cow’s milk - and there is evidence to suggest that these levels of sugar could cause skin problems too. Soya milk can be high in added sugars and refined sugar may be implicated in skin ageing and acne.

Reduce Redness of Face

Reduce pigmentation

Mantain PH of Face

Reduce Acne

Control Oil on skin

Unclog pores

Brighten skin

White Vinegar and Water Toner

White vinegar is an extremely popular kitchen ingredient that can be used as a natural skin toner for sensitive skin which is prone to rashes, inflammation, infections and allergies. White vinegar contains 5 to 8% acetic acid, and it is usually distilled from malt vinegar. It is also used as an effective DIY natural hair conditioner for smooth and silky hair. It works as a mild astringent to reduce excess oil and sebum from the skin surface and shrink the open pores to provide a smooth and supple appearance of the skin. The powerful antimicrobial properties of white vinegar help to eradicate acne-causing bacteria and prevent acne and pimple breakouts.

Mix equal quantity of water and white vinegar and wipe your face with this mixture 2 to 3 times a day in order to remove excess oil, dirt, impurities and sebum from your skin and tone the open pores.

Camphor and Rose Water Toner

Natural skin care tips for oily skin must include skin toner because it tones the open skin pores and reduces the secretion of sebum and oil from the skin. Camphor is an amazing natural ingredient that has been used for decades for skin and hair care. It is one of the potential homemade acne treatments that show prompt results. It also soothes skin itching, irritation, redness, skin infections and allergies. Rose water possesses amazing anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and hydrating properties that are suitable for all skin types.

Add a pinch of natural camphor in a bottle of rose water and shake it well. Use this mixture as a facial toner and wipe your face with it 3 to 4 times a day to reduce excessive oil and sebum, reduce open pores and cool and sooth the skin during hot summer.

Lemon Juice Toner

The list of best natural skin care products for healthy skin is incomplete without the inclusion of lemon juice. It is a wonderful skin toner for oily skin, and the citric acid present in lemon also helps in lightening skin tan. Lemon juice is loaded with skin-friendly vitamins that help to lighten age spots, scars, skin disorders, and hyperpigmentation. The natural antibacterial properties of lemon juice help to cure acne and pimple, which is more prevalent in the case of oily skin. It is a natural exfoliant that gently peels the top layer of the dead skin cells to provide a smooth and even complexion.

Squeeze the juice of a lemon and apply it on the face directly. Wait for 10 minutes and wash off with water. If your skin is too sensitive, you can dilute the lemon juice with some water.

Alum and Glycerine Toner

Alum is popularly used for soothing irritated skin after shaving, and it is other wonderful uses as well. The combination of alum and glycerin is not only one of the best natural skin toners but also the ultimate solution to the problem of how to get rid of dry skin on your feet naturally. Alum is has been used for centuries to treat various types of skin problems, and it is available in the form of powder as well as blocks. Alum is beneficial for smoothing wrinkles and fine lines, acne and pimples, and it also helps in removing excessive hair for women. Glycerine is an organic compound made from carbon, oxygen and hydrogen that is highly viscous, water-soluble and non-toxic. It hydrates the skin from within thanks to its humectant properties and also works as an amazing anti-aging solution.

Try these toners & Enjoy summers!

In large bowl combine flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Make a well in the center.

Add eggs, coffee, buttermilk, oil and vanilla. Beat for 2 minutes on medium speed. Batter will be thin but don't worry it will turn out great. Pour into prepared pans.

Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 to 40 minutes, or until toothpick inserted into center of cake comes out clean.

Cool for 10 minutes, then remove from pans and finish cooling on a wire rack. Fill and frost as desired.
