Face Masks, Beauty tips and Health



Our teenage years are when our skin is the most sensitive and its important to be aware of what we put on our skin. Facial cleansers that contain a number of chemicals can be harsh on our skins. Using facial scrubs that are more nature or contain natural ingredients are better. But the best scrubs to use are made by using homeade remedies. Oatmeal scrubs and apricot scrubs are very effective as well as masks. One that has worked for me personally is the Oatmeal mask.


You take:
    -1/2 cup of hot water
    - 1/3 oats
    - 2 tsp. yogurt
    - 2 tsp. honey
    - 1 egg white

**Let it set for 10-15 minutes and rinse.

Oatmeal moisturizes, repairs and softens your skin. other foods that helps hydrate your skin and prevent wrinkles are yogurt and chocolate.

Now stress overload is a huge problem among all of us and you have to find a way to manage stress. A few helpful tips are:
  1.  Listening to music: jam out everyday
  2.  Exercise: Stress produces chemicals that make you tense, execerise releases endorphins which make you happy:)
  3. Getting enough sleep
  4.  Deep breathes
  5.  Eating FULL meals (dont skip, cut down on junk, get enough iron and calcium which is something that all girls are low on.)
  6. Drink water: you feel tired when your dehydrated
  7. Discuss your problems; Vent! It takes a huge load off and you get back good advice.

I hope this helps add to your daily life and remember love the skin your in:)
