    For greasy hair--you can buy a dry shampoo that you simply spray on and the brush through it doesn't clog the hair and still leaves a shine!

    The cheapest most effective solution for puffy eyes is Preparation H gel. I know it sounds crazy... but, a friend of mine swore by it so I gave it a try. It really works! Obviously you want to use an unused tube- only on and for your eyes. Apply around your eyes (be careful not to get it in your eyes) and leave on for as long as you like-until puffiness subsides. Then wash it off with soap and water and that's it; it works like a charm! F.Y.I. the cream does sometimes sting a little but, that is only temporary. I'm guessing the same ingredients used to shrink hemorrhoids puffiness is what makes it work to shrink eye puffiness

    Bleeding Lipstick-use a lip liner. this will help prevent the lipstick from running. Try to find a similar color or a shade darker than your lipstick.

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%.

The ache of acne (pimples)

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...
