4 temporary fixes for your problems

Here are quick, temporary solutions for 4 of your problems that tend to drive you mad when are in a hurry.

Camouflage unwanted hair

You’ve got an evening out program and no time to get your face bleached to camouflage that tiny hair growth on your face. Don’t worry! Cut a thin slice of lemon; rub it gently over the area where you have hair, i.e. upper lip, forehead, jaw line and sideburns. The lemon will lighten the hair color and make it less visible.

Tame unruly eyebrows

When you have no time to attend to your highly unmanageable, unruly eyebrows, spritz a little hairspray on a cotton ball. Then wipe on for maximum control.


You are to give a speech and your nervous system is already revved up. Your palms have already started sweating profusely in anticipation of confronting a crowd. You obviously want to conceal your panic and put on a brave front, especially, as you haantiperspirantve to shake hands with too many people before the event. Not to worry. Try this solution. Apply an antiperspirant on your palms before any big moment which almost sucks the life out of you. The aluminium chloride in antiperspirant thickens the sweat pouring out of the sweat ducts and plugs them up with thousands of gooey corks; it’s a temporary fix, though.

Avoid dragon breath

You are savoring scrumptious and spicy dishes with plenty of garlic for lunch totally unmindful of the aftermath. You suddenly remember that you have to attend an important meeting within no time and here you are saddled with a vampire breath – all of your own doing. What to do? Just dip a lemon quarter in a pinch of salt and chew on it. The lemon oil and salt will help break down the odor causing compounds in garlic.

The ache of acne (pimples)

Acne is often the bane of a pretty face. It is painful more emotionally than physically, for the scar that it leaves behind can last for a lifetime, adding to one’s miserable look & feeling. No doubt many expensive skin care clinics have mushroomed in ever nook & corner, offering to clear all the scars & blemishes on the face, but they are very expensive & charge exorbitant price for each sitting; not everyone can afford them. So why not try out this simple skin care regimen to minimize the damage caused by acne & as far as possible prevent its eruption.

Aspirin for acne-prone skin

Aspirin has been around for a long time and its health benefits are wide and varied. Aspirin , or acetylsalicylic acid is a salicylate drug, often used as an analgesic to relieve minor aches and pains , as an antipyretic to reduce fever , and as an anti-inflammatory medication. Aspirin's greatest benefit is reducing cardiovascular events including heart attacks and strokes. According to the American Heart Assoc. virtually all women are at risk of heart disease and doctors should more strongly consider prescribing a daily aspirin for their female patients. There is growing evidence to suggest regular aspirin use may reduce cancer and dementia as well. Investigators from the Women's Health Study have reported important new findings demonstrating that aspirin reduces the risk of a first stroke in women. When given to someone immediately after a heart attack, aspirin decreases death by 25%.
