If you have already tried using common ingredients from your kitchen and home to get rid of stains from fingers and fingernails then you should also check this sure-fire remedy which will brighten and whiten your nails in minutes. For this you need a denture tablet such as this, 1-2 cups of warm water and few drops of essential oil of your choice. I prefer lemon essential oil such as this.

diy nail whitening remedy ingredients


Method:
First of all saturate the denture tablet with essential oil. Then take a small bowl and pour lukewarm water in it. Put the denture tablet in it and let it dissolve. Then soak your fingertips in it for 10 minutes. Discard the water after use.

However don't use this remedy too often. Using denture solution every now and then can weaken your nails and make them brittle. For keeping your nails clean, white and  bright do regular manicure at home and follow these tips for strong and healthy nails.

    Mix both the ingredients, lemon juice (about 1 tbsp) and baking soda (2-3 tbsp) and make a thick paste.

    Apply this paste on your nails and with the help of a soft toothbrush just scrub this paste on your nails.

    Keep it for 10-15 mins on your nails and then just rinse it.

    Apply a heavy moisturiser on your hands and fingertips to avoid the dryness.

    You can rub fresh orange peel directly to your nails two to three times daily. And it will start giving a visible result in 1-2 weeks.

    Use the dried orange peels. Grind dried orange peel and mix it with the little water to make a thick paste.

    Leave this paste on your fingertips for 10 mins.

    Use a soft toothbrush and scrub gently.

    Wash it with lukewarm water.

    Onion peel will help in making your nails whiter and will also curb the possibility of fungal growth.

    A diet can also prove to be beneficial for nails. The way your body, skin and hair needs a balanced diet, in the same way, your nails also need a diet for their health. Include more probiotics like yogurt in the diet.

    Nails are made of up protein, so the richer is your diet in protein, better will be the health of your nails. Eating fish, beef, spinach and dairy products which are high in protein are good for the health of nails and body.

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%.

Aloevera, the wonder herb

Of all the herbs available in the kitchen garden, aloe is perhaps the richest in healing properties and has been rightly named the “first-aid” plant. It has moisturizing and emollient properties and is used in cosmetic creams, sun-lotions, shaving creams and face packs. It can easily be cultivated as a house-plant in a sunny warm spot with good drainage. Cosmetologists mix aloe with several other herbs and draft fancy names for it. Then these “herbal” avatars are sold at exorbitant prices. Growing a plant and using fresh gel is much more effective than bottled gel, simply because it is alive and therefore is more potent. It is the only plant whose extract is applied directly from plant to face in its natural and purest form.

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...
