REMEDIES FOR DANDRUFF

Some symptoms of dandruff may include;

Redness of the scalp
Excessive flaking which is caused by the fungus infection or head-lice
Itchiness
Dull and lifeless hair
Since dandruff is majorly about the occurrence of the dead cells, here are some remedies to directly exfoliate the dead cells, moisturize scalp and save you the itching in the comfort of your home.

Home Remedies You Can Use

Listerine (mouth wash)


Unbelievable right, I know but it does work. After your normal hair wash, you should mix a small portion of Listerine with water, apply on your scalp and then wash off after 30minutes.

Aspirin
It is not only good for your head ache but also as a salicylic acid that helps extract flakes from the scalp. You can just crush 2pices of aspirin mix with water and apply on the scalp. Wash off after few minutes.

Aloe Vera and onion juice
Aloe vera and onion juice are one of the most potent remedies. You should extract some aloe gel and mix with grated onion juice and apply to the scalp. The aloe serve as a moisturizer to your scalp, it reduced the itching, it penetrates easily to your scalp skin and it has anti-fungi properties while the orange juice kills the bacteria and flakes. Apply this mixture on the scalp and wear a shower cap. Wash off after 30minutes.

Salt and Olive oil


Salt is also a natural exfoliator that is highly effective. Mix your natural, undiluted olive oil with a reasonable portion of salt and apply to your hair thoroughly. Rinse it off after 30minutes.

Shower after exercise as sweat irritates the scalp
Use shampoo with ingredients such as- zinc, selenium sulfide, salicylic acid to scrub off the dead cells

You can do this at least three times a week till you reach a conclusive option. Remember that enhancing your hair with attachments and weaving all year long isn’t the best way to avoid dandruff as you can’t have access to your scalp as often as required. Also oiling your hair always can irritate your scalp. Remember it’s oiling and washing off you should practice.

If you don’t seem to find any of these working for you, it’s then important to book an appointment with your doctor to determine the cause of your dandruff!

Stay Healthy!!!

Remedies For Acne And Pimples.
1. Apply some apple cider vinegar

Apple cider vinegar is a powerhouse when it comes to acting as an acne remedy. Why? It kills off the bacteria that may be causing all the trouble in the first place. It also becomes alkaline, and balances the pH of your skin, which in turn makes it harder for bacteria to thrive. To top it off it’s an astringent, like lemon juice, and will help dry up excess oil. Keeping that in mind, don’t overdo and dry out your skin too much. This could cause the sebaceous glands overproduce to compensate, therefore triggering an outbreak.

You will need…
-Pure unfiltered apple cider vinegar
-Fresh water
Directions
Wash your face with water and pat dry. Using a ratio of 1 part vinegar to 3 parts water, dip a cotton ball into vinegar and apply it directly to the blemish. Leave on for at least 10 minutes, or overnight. Reapply several times a day, washing face thoroughly after each time. Make sure to use a moisturizer afterwards as well if you feel like your skin is getting dry.

2. Make a cinnamon and honey mask

Honey is sticky, and cinnamon is spicy, and it seems like they’re both things you’d want to avoid getting near your skin. Surprisingly, while it may sound strange, honey and cinnamon make a (literally) killer combo when it comes to acne. Cinnamon has antimicrobial properties, so it can help stop bacteria from getting out of hand. If it does, the honey is a natural anti-biotic, ready and waiting to wipe the little buggers out.

You will need…
-2 tablespoons of honey
-1 teaspoon of cinnamon
- paper towels

Directions
Rinse your face with water and pat dry. Mix 2 tablespoons of honey and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon together until they are thoroughly blended and have formed a sort of paste. Apply the mask to your face (or spot treat) and leave on for 10-15 minutes. Rinse off completely, and pat your face dry. This is a sticky mixture, so make sure you have some paper towels at on hand.

3. The land of milk and honey (or yogurt)

While there is quite a bit of hub bub around dairy products causing acne, applied topically it seems that milk can improve your outbreaks and skin tone. The reason it is suggested that milk would cause acne is because of the extra hormones in it-but unless it’s ingested, this doesn’t really do much. For the most part, it just soothes the irritated skin, and helps tone down the redness. Cleopatra swore on the milk baths she took, and well, she was Cleopatra. You could also use yogurt. The acids in it are antibacterial while the fat provides moisture, making it quite nourishing for skin.

You will need…
- 1 tablespoon plain low-fat or full-fat yogurt or milk, anything but skim
- 1 tablespoon of natural, raw, honey

Directions
Let yogurt or milk come to room temperature (or close to) so you don’t get a chilly shock when you put it on your skin. Mix 1 tablespoon of milk or yogurt thoroughly with 1 tablespoon of honey. You can apply the mixture with a cotton pad, but scooping it up and patting it on works just fine as well. Let each layer dry before adding a new one, until the mask is the thickness you want. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes. Wash your mask off and use a washcloth to gently scrub in a circular motion, getting rid of loosened dead skin. Once you’re finished, moisturize as usual.

4. Whip up some ‘whites

Egg whites are an easy and affordable way to help reduce acne and fade scars left by unfortunate blemishes. The reason people have found egg whites to be helpful for their skin is because they’re chock full of proteins and vitamins that both combat acne, and help to rebuild your skin cells. They also soak up excess oil, which means excess sebum, (exactly what you were thinking right?) which means less stuff for bacteria to feed on. Hooray! Just make sure to use a good moisturizer afterwards, as they can dry your skin out a bit.

You will need…
-2 to 3 egg whites, separated from yolks
-Bowl
-Washcloth

Directions
Rinse your face with water and pat dry. Separate the whites from the yolks. You can use as many as you like, but normally 2 to 3 is enough. Whisk the whites until they’re frothy, and let them sit for a few minutes. Cover your face with the mixture (applying with fingertips is easy) focusing on problem spots. 3 to 4 layers is usually enough, but make sure to wait the first has dried before applying more. Allow the mask to sit and dry for about 20 minutes before rinsing off completely with warm water and a patting dry with a soft washcloth. Apply moisturizer appropriate for your skin type.
5. Papaya for the pimple prone

Papaya is an essential ingredient in a lot of beauty products on the market today, but theres no need to go out of your way to gain its benefits? Plain raw papaya is an all-natural acne remedy that removes dead skin cells and excess lipids from the surface of the skin, leaving it soft and smooth. Lipids are a general term for fats, of which oil is a form of. Papaya also contains an enzyme called papain, which reduces inflammation and helps prevent the pus from forming.

You will need…
-1 fresh papaya

Directions
Rinse your face with water and pat dry. Mash up the flesh of the papaya well, until it is of a consistency that can be easily applied to your skin. Leave it on for 15-20 minutes, and then rinse off completely with warm water. If your skin has a tendency to get dry after you cleanse it, use a moisturizer appropriate for your skin type afterwards.

6. Make an orange peel paste

Ah, oranges. They taste rejuvenating and refreshing, and our skin may find them just as appealing as our taste buds do. Acne that is caused by bacteria and extra oil/dead skin cells clogging up pores may improve with the use of an orange peel face mask of sorts, thanks to the vitamin C, citric acid, and it’s astringent properties. The vitamin C is particularly helpful because it promotes the growth of new healthy cells, keeping your skin in better condition overall.

You will need…
-2 Orange peels
-Clean, fresh water

Directions
Rinse your face with water and pat dry. Grind/pound up your orange peels (you could use a blender, mortar and pestle, whatever gets the job done) and add a little water to create a paste. Add a little at a time, as too much will make it too thin and runny. Once you have the right consistency, apply it to your face and/or problem areas. Wait for 20-25 minutes. Ideally the mask should be firm, but it can still work if it isn’t. Rinse off completely with water, pat your face dry, and apply a good moisturize.

7. Tap into tea tree oil

You’ll read about tea tree oil for a lot of home remedies, but will most likely see it mentioned the most when comes to skin care, specifically, acne. But why, when too much oil is clogging the pores and making you break out, would you want to use more oil? Tea tree oil isn’t like the oil your skin naturally produces, rather it is more like a solvent that cuts through the extra sebum and dead skin cells, and unblocks the pores. Its antibacterial properties also kill off the acne causing bacteria, and prevent further outbreaks.

Note: Tea tree oil is ok for topical use, but should never be ingested. It should also always be diluted before use.

You will need…
-Tea tree oil (a small bottle will do)
-Clean water
-Q-tips or cotton balls

Directions
Wash your face with water and pat dry. Dilute tea tree oil by mixing 1 part oil to 9 parts water. Dip a Q-tip or cotton swab in mixture, and apply to problem areas. If you decide you want a stronger dilution after a while, you can slowly (slowly!) begin to increase the strength, making sure to use each new mixture for at least a week for making it any stronger. Again, it should never be applied undiluted. You can apply a light moisturizer afterwards if you wish.

Another option, especially if you have sensitive skin, is to dilute it with aloe vera gel instead of water.

8. Mix strawberries and honey

Honey and strawberries make a home remedy for acne that sounds pretty sweet (pun intended) and it combines two things that are used commonly in pricey, often time’s harsh, facial scrubs and cleansers. Strawberries may seem random, but consider the fact that they’re high in salicylic acid. Salicylic acid-a primary ingredient in many commercial acne treatments- encourages the epidermis to shed its cells more readily, opening up clogged pores, and neutralizing bacteria. It also shrinks up the pores a little bit, which prevents them from clogging up as much in the future, and encourages new cell growth. Honey also works against bacteria that may be behind your acne, and is an anti-inflammatory.

You will need…
-3 fresh strawberries, washed well
-2 teaspoons of good honey-raw is best

Directions
Wash your face with water and pat dry. Rinse 3 strawberries and mash them up well, taking care that they don’t get over-mashed and runny. Add the strawberries to two teaspoons of honey, and thoroughly blend them together. Apply to your face and let the mixture sit for 20 minutes. Rinse off completely with warm water, pat dry, and moisturize if your skin has a tendency to dry out. Use twice a week for at least a month.
9. Utilize a banana peel

Bananas are full of all sorts of goodness-even the part we don’t eat. Their peels contain something called lutein, an extremely powerful antioxidant that reduces swelling and inflammation, and encourages healthy cell growth. So…rubbing a banana peel on your face can reduce the redness, obviousness, and discomfort of acne. It’s (debatably) a better use than using it to trip your friend.

You will need…
-1 banana peel

Directions
Peel your banana and eat it- it’s not cool to waste, and they’re good for you. Take the peel, and rub in a circular motion all over your face. When you feel as though you’ve covered all of your face, let it sit for at least 30 minutes before rinsing it off.

How To Fade Out Your Dark spots
Dark spots are hyper-pigmentation of the skin. There is a chemical substance in the skin that gives it the dark colour. When there is an over-production of this chemical substance you get the dark spots. There may be many causes for dark spots on your skin. Hormonal imbalance is one of them. Sometimes, dark spots are due to some blood vessel deformities under the skin where these dark spots appear on your skin. However, excessive sun exposure seems to be the biggest reason behind dark spots on skin. Dark spots can also be caused by use of low grade cosmetic products.
While there are many skin cosmetics such as hydroquinone cream, tretinoin cream and azelaic acid cream as well as various skin treatments like chemical peels and intense pulsed light therapy, fancy huh? Never mind we are going to talk about all natural ways to get rid of these dark spots on your skin.
Lemon juice
Lemon juice has bleaching properties that can help get rid of dark spots because of its acidic content. It will help maintain soft, clear and beautiful skin. You can apply fresh lemon juice directly on the affected area. Leave it on for 30 minutes before rinsing it off with cold water. You should repeat this twice daily for about two months to notice positive results. If you have sensitive skin, dilute the lemon juice with water.

Vinegar
You can also use vinegar to get rid of your dark spots. It will help dry out and fade the dark spots quickly. Mix an equal amount of vinegar and water and rub on areas with dark spots. You should do that till the dark spots fade away. You can also mix it with honey and rub on the affected areas.

Aloe Vera
Aloe vera is very good for the skin because of its regenerative properties. Extract the gel from the leaves and rub on the affected areas, you should get a positive result in few days.

Potatoes
Unbelievable right! but they are very effective. Potatoes are rich in vitamins and minerals, essential fatty acids and a variety of phytochemicals such as carotenoids and polyphenols. The Vitamin-C, B-complex and minerals such as potassium, magnesium, calcium, phosphorus and zinc, potatoes are able to stimulate collagen and elastin synthesis. This gives you an evenly toned complexion. In fact, potato juice is one of the best remedies for dark spots due to its skin lightening properties. Many natural enzymes, sugars and starches of potatoes along with its vitamin C, exfoliate your skin to slough off the dead cells and thus diminishing the dark spots.

Other Effective Ways Include The Use Of;

Onion juice
Pawpaw or papaya mash
Watermelon rind
Buttermilk

How to treat eczema naturally
[Reposted from Beauty from d inside C002C9BD7]
Ingredient
Shea butter
Lemon juice

How to- For treating eczema you must apply this twice a day on the affected area for quick result.
Mix two part of shea butter with one part of fresh lemon juice and mix it properly to form a paste. Apply in the morning and also at night & leave it till day break.

–The first step towards achieving properly groomed brows is getting unwanted hair off. Never ever use a black pencil except you’re extremely dark skinned with very black hair.
– Also, avoid using colours like green, blue, purple, pink and other beautiful colours for your eyebrows like some of our sisters do. Reserve them for your eyes and shadow pallets.
– Your eye pencil should be a shade lighter than your eyebrows.
– Try not to over shade or draw heavy strokes while lining your brows.
– Sharpen your eye pencil properly before use because blunt pencils will give you a pasted/painted appearance.
– Starting from below your brows draw a line carefully as shown in the diagram above from angles A to C, repeating d process on the upper brow.
– Using d side of your eye pencil, fill the middle of your brows lightly by shading till your eyebrow is properly covered.

* Lastly, for people with really full eyebrows, instead of using a pencil to fill your brows, you can always use a powder eyebrow filler or eye shadow that is a shade lighter than your eyebrows just so your brows wouldn’t look too thick or “over shaded”.
