Do beauty rituals at home


John Keats, a poet from the early era said, “A thing of beauty is a joy forever: its loveliness increases; it will never pass into nothingness.” Beauty stays for a lifetime as it never fades and we continue to make a joy out of it. Beauty will always be of the essence if we take good care of it.

Moreover, we always want to be pleasant and presentable with our inside and outside appearance. Our physical appearance is the first visible aspect, thus, taking good care of it is essential. We need not to go to any beauty salon as we can do the procedures at the comfort of our homes.

Homemade beauty products can be found in the kitchen. As compared to the products bought over-the-counters, homemade products are more natural because they do not contain harmful chemicals. We can also save budget because they are cheaper.

For instance, we can get rid of pimples or acne through applying white toothpaste on the affected spot in order for the acne to shrink. Use pasty toothpaste rather than the gel type.

For wrinkles, banana mask for a maximum of 20 minutes is recommended. Rinse the mask with warm water. All we need to do is mashed the banana until it becomes creamy. Vitamins from this fruit lessen wrinkles as they make the skin firm up.

We can also apply milk onto our skin as it serves as a moisturizer. It gets rids of dead skins on the face while maintains the skin’s softness.

Nevertheless, we just need to be patient in order to achieve these homemade beauty tips. There is no harm because everything is natural.

Remove make-up with the right products


For women, make-up is part and parcel of our daily life. It does not only enhance our look but also highlight the most prominent features of our face. And it conceals the flaws that we have as well. And although most of us love using make-up, it is also important to remove make-up properly.

Make-up comprises different kinds of layer which makes our skin heavy and closes the pores. Thus, we should be certain that the make-up we apply during the day does not stay overnight or for a longer period of time. It is necessary to seek the help of a quality face make-up remover to protect our skin.

Make-up remover comes in different forms of gels, lotions, and wipes. Make-up remover products are enriched with active ingredients designed to remove layers very easily while moisturizes the skin. Make-up removers are also available for different skin types. This ensures us that make-up is removed finely without causing harm to our skin. Since eye is one of the most sensitive organs, a special eye-make up remover is also made. 

The best of make-up products include St. Ives Make-Up remover with active ingredients that gently cleanses the skin. It is formulated with non-drying cream formula that effectively removes even heavy make-up. The cleanser goes deep into the skin resulting to smooth, soft, and visible healthy skin.

Benefits Cosmetics also has their own line of make-up remover product called Gee. It is based on oil-free formulation but removes make-up without leaving a trace of oil. Cuticura is also known as an old name in make-up products. Its remover is enriched with soya. It loosens and dissolves with the make-up, making it easier to remove. So, it is equally important to invest on quality make-up and remover products.
