Acai Berry Fruit Facial Mask

Let me tell you about a remarkable acai berry fruit facial mask that I often use to pamper my skin and this has the same effect on your skin as one of those 100 dollar clay facial masks that you get at your day spa. The amazing little acai berry that comes out of the rain forests of Brazil has antioxidants. And antioxidants are known to prevent free radicals that produce harmful oxidation and oxidants that tend to speed up the aging process. Now let’s talk about Green French clay. This clay has enormous cosmetic and health benefits. Read all about  the beauty uses of green clay here. A combination of these two ingredients makes an amazing mask that works like charm on skin that feels like burlap due to the harmful effects of pollution, stress, lack of sleep, poor diet, exposure to sun, tobacco smoke etc.

Now to the preparation of the Acai berry- French Green clay mask…

Your consistency should be thick and moist. Liberally apply the mask to your face and neck, leaving the eyes clear. Wash off after 15 minutes. You will feel refreshed and like you just had a one hundred dollar facial.

  5. Clay masks always helped my skin become less oily, without being overly drying. I highly recommend trying them. I had mild to moderate acne as a teenager. I used Queen Helene's back when it was at every Big Lots :)

Simple ways of acquiring a clear & blemish free skin

It is not necessary to go to expensive beauty parlours or buy expensive creams and lotions to acquire a blemish free & clear complexion. A few homemade remedies are provided below which will serve the purpose equally well. Hope this will benefit the readers. 1. Always wash your face with mild soap so that the pores breathe fresh air. For a clear and attractive skin mix besan, turmeric (haldi), lemon and milk together. Make a paste. Apply it on the face. Let it dry. Wash with clean water. Wipe your face with a soft towel and pat it dry.

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%.

I Tried a Headache Balm and Ended Up with Rashes

I do have this habit of slathering pain balms whenever I have a headache. But never did I get a skin reaction or rashes from it. It so happened that I had an extremely severe headache a few months ago.  The pain was so unbearable that I gingerly reached out for a pain balm kept on my bedside table and kept on slathering it repeatedly all over the temples of my forehead. Next morning, after I woke up, I found that the skin on my forehead was peeling off and worse there were red rashes!  This was the first time in my life that I was getting rashes from applying a pain balm on my forehead !  I have never had any pain balm allergy or as such!  Side-effects due to application of a pain balm  was something I've never come across all these years! I usually use pain balms of reputed companies – my usual favourites are Tiger balm, Amrutanjan, Zandu balm and Sloan’s balm.  This time I had used Tiger balm. But why did it  give me rashes now, when I had used it...
