Home Remedies - Remove Blackheads From Nose & Face





Clear skin is a goal for everyone, especially women. It seems that the frequent occurrence of black heads is the biggest hurdle in achieving this goal. These bumps that are commonly seen on the face are actually due to excess oil or clogged pores.

When these pores, or sebaceous glands, produce excess amounts of oil the pores get expanded and thicken. Then, oil enters them and gradually hardens, leading to the appearance of blackheads.
The production of oil in our pores is increased due to hormonal imbalance often in the teenage years, during menopause, menstruation, pregnancy, or when you frequently consume fried foods.

The elimination of blackheads will be easier if you start using low- oil cosmetic products, as well as natural remedies which will effectively remove them.

The following video will provide important tips on how to remove whiteheads and blackheads around the nose or any other face part in a completely natural way, and you will be pleased with the results.

How To Lift Your Breasts Naturally?



Ways to Lift Your Breasts:

 Right Bra Size: Firstly, it is very important to get the size of your bra right. Squeezing into a small bra may cause injury to breast tissue, poor posture or even back pain. Also, right bra size can give your breasts a natural lift.

Exercise: Though the breasts are mainly composed of fat, the entire mass sits on top of a muscle called pectoral. Exercise can build up the muscle, and prevent drooping breasts or sagging. Here are few exercises you can do to keep your breasts firm:

Push-ups: Practice around 10 push-ups a day to strengthen your pectoral muscles. The right way to do it is by starting on your fours, with feet close together and palms slightly wider than your shoulders. Your body should form a straight line from head to toe. Lower down until your chest almost touches the floor. Keep your upper arms at a 45 degree angle to your torso. Pause, then repeat. You should see results in a month or two.

Weight Lifting: Weight lifting is a great way to build up your pectoral muscle. You can try bench pressing or the dumbbell fly. To start off with, try a simple balance ball exercise you can do at the gym or at home. Use a balance ball to support your weight under your upper back and extend your legs out in a 90 degree angle. Start with a free weight in each hand with your hands rested on the ground at your sides. Bring your arms up into a 90 degree angle and hold the position for a few seconds. As soon as you can no longer handle the position, drop the weights back down to your sides, take a few seconds to rest and go back into the same motion.

Aloe Vera Gel: Aloe Vera is known to have natural skin tightening properties. Massaging with Aloe Vera Gel exercises the muscles and tones the breasts. You can also try almond oil, as it increases blood circulation.

Nutrition: The muscles will become tight if you fulfill the protein requirement of the muscles. Your body requires essential nutrients such as vitamins, calcium and minerals. These can be found in foods like tomatoes, cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, carrot, meat etc. But along with this you need to reduce the intake of caffeine and also stop smoking.

Swimming: Just spending about half an hour in the pool can do wonders for your breasts! Swimming tightens the muscles responsible for holding your breasts. Swimming can help you burn fat and build muscle in your upper body, hence helps you lift your breasts and keep them firm.

Try out natural hair masks the next time you want to give your hair a deep treatment.

Treating your hair to a deep, nourishing mask every few weeks will make the world of difference. Women have been looking after their locks for decades - way before famous brands were around - so what did they use to use to give wonderful shine and soft-to-touch finish?

There are an astonishing amount of items in your kitchen which are great to use on your tresses. One which may surprise you is the banana, which is high in potassium and vitamins A, C and E.
Pop the mushy filling into a bowl or food processor and mix into a smooth paste. You want to make sure it's lump free as any small bits may prove tricky to rinse out.

Once easy to handle simply apply it to your hair and cover with a shower cap or plastic bag to stop the dripping. Or, if you wanted to really stimulate your roots to absorb extra nutrients, use your hair dryer after around 20 minutes to allow the banana to set.
Then all you have to do is rinse out the fragrant mixture, using a fine-toothed comb if needed as well as your regular shampoo.
If dry hair is your problem you may be brave enough to try out the next option.

Mayonnaise is a cheap, easy to purchase beauty treatment for your dehydrated locks. The gloopy white mixture is packed full of oil, which is guaranteed to add an extra shine and moisture to your hair. You don't need to go out and buy a whole new jar - a little amount will go a long way for this process.

Pop a small dollop of mayonnaise onto your hand and work it through your hair from roots to the tips. If the eggy smell is too much for you add a drop of scented oil to the mixture before applying.

You can leave this on for up to an hour to ensure your hair soaks up the oil before rinsing out thoroughly and shampooing.
Not all old-fashioned hair masks are made up of squidgy ingredients. One suggestion aimed at getting rid of dandruff is lemon and olive oil. Make sure your oil is plain - a flavoured one won't leave the nicest of smells!

All you need to do is squeeze two table spoons of fresh lemon juice into a small bowl with the same amount of olive oil and water. Mix thoroughly and rub into your hair, wrapping a warm damp towel over your hair to make sure no excess liquid evaporates. The good thing about this method is that it can be done once or twice a week as it's easy to make, apply and doesn't leave you with banana or mayonnaise smeared hands.


Awesome Health Benefits of Garlic


Cardiovascular Health – If you enjoy eating Mediterranean or Far Eastern food you’ll notice that garlic is used a lot.The good news is that people from areas also have low incidences of cardiovascular disease.

Cholesterol can be a confusing area of health. On one hand it is essential whilst on the other hand it can kill us. This is because there are two types of Cholesterol – HDL and LDL. The latter type is considered bad. Modern medicine has found that garlic contains allicin which scavenges hydroxyl radicals (OH). This is turn is thought to prevent LDLs from being oxidised. Unfortunately a number of studies that have been carried out have shown mixed results. It only goes to show how much more seriously natural remedies needs to be taken. Of course, we all know that there’s no incentive for drug companies to research natural products due to the lack of financial reward. If you have problems with high cholesterol go ahead and take some garlic. Just make sure it’s part of a balanced diet and you don’t ignore your doctor’s advice.

Antioxidant – Allicin naturally increases antioxidant enzymes atalase and glutathione peroxidase in your blood. It can help against the damaging effects of nicotine and slows the aging process of your liver by inhibiting lipid peroxidation.

Anti-Bacterial – Garlic has 1% of the potency of penicillin and can ward off a number of bacteria such as Listeria, Salmonella, E. coli, Cryptococcal meningitis, Candida albican and Staphylococcus. The problem with most antibiotics is that bacteria develops resistance to them, however this is not the case with garlic. These benefits were first realized back in the early 19th century when English priests caught infectious fever. The French priests, who ate garlic every day, didn’t.

Blood Clots – Clinical trials, which were published in the Journal of Hypertension, showed that the blood pressure of volunteers was reduced 1 – 5% after taking garlic supplements. This may not sound a lot but this small reduction can reduce the chance of a stroke by 30-40% and heart disease by 20-25%.

Some Pointers about Garlic:-

Garlic is most effective when crushed or chopped and when raw.
One clove a day will improve your health and 2-3 cloves will help prevent a cold.
When cooking garlic wait until the last 10 minutes of cooking to add the garlic.
Be careful about taking too much as it can irritate your digestive system.
Don’t microwave garlic as this kills the active ingredients.
Don’t take garlic instead of a healthy balanced diet.
Always consult a doctor if you are unsure about anything.
