MAKE UP EXPIRATION

Did you know that just like milk, makeup has an expiration date? Most days I put on eyeliner, mascara, and lipstick and never think about the expiration date of the makeup until recently when I got an irritation around my eye. I realized it was a product causing the irritation. The hardest part of being a makeup lover and owning plenty of cosmetics is having to part with your favorite blush, lipsticks, and eyeliners when their expiration dates approach. I know that throwing away your makeup when there is still product left can be painful. However, there is a reason we should not hold onto our favorite products forever. We all probably have beauty products that are at least a couple of years old, and it is hard to even remember when we first started using them. If a beauty product has passed its expiration date, your skin might react to it. This could cause irritation and redness. Bacteria can quickly spread and result in breakouts or other problems. Some suggestions for you are to:

• Check an expiration date

• Keep products in a cool, dry place that is not in direct sunlight

• Do not share makeup or skin care products with others

• Use and clean the spatulas that come with your products or switch to using q-tips to scoop out your product

• Only open a new product if you plan on using it for a while.

As a general rule, if your beauty products suddenly start to smell weird or change color or consistency, throw them away! If you store and clean your beauty products carefully, you should be able to use them for several more months. To keep your make up up to date, plan to sort your supplies twice a year, throwing away any questionable products.

HEALTHY & BEAUTIFUL HAIR

Beyond the popular hairstyles for the summer, bright colors and the cuts that will help you look trendy, it's important to take care of your hair. While dry hair and static frizz are often associated with winter, your hair can also suffer throughout the summer. Consider how much time your hair spends in chlorinated pools, how much salt builds up, and how the sun's intense heat damages your hair.

It's crucial to modify your routine in the hot summer months. To help remove chlorine and buildup, switch from your regular shampoo to a clarifying one. You can also try applying a UV protectant spray when you are outside in the sun. Anti-frizz or shine serums can also be helpful to seal in moisture while preventing the humidity from ruining your hairstyle. To maintain your hair soft and healthy during the summer, use hair masks more frequently and watch your healthy and beautiful hair glow!

GORGEOUS SKIN CARE

"Our body loses moisture in hot weather under the harsh summer sun. As the summer wears on, you might notice that your face and legs feel dryer and appear a little more flaky. Keep your skin thoroughly hydrated, use a fresh cleanser that provides more hydration, or apply a hydrating face mask. It may sound cliche but 2 to 3 liters of water during summer work miracles! Our skin deserves to look gorgeous and hydrated even in the summer!"

BENEFITS OF PRESSURE POINTS

Stress and anxiety can be experienced daily in our lives and it can be caused by numerous things. One of the possible reasons is based on his/her environment and living in the city can be as stressful as it can be every single day. Dealing with endless traffic and crowds, an individual’s stress and anxiety level can easily increase swiftly due to the hustle and bustle within the city.

As much as possible, it is extremely important to have natural relieving remedies that can help with calming one’s self on-the-go. Our bodies have pressure points that can quickly provide relief from stress and anxiety. When the pressure builds throughout the day, some solutions are available tp be used anytime and anywhere. Try some of the effective methods using the pressure points and your fingerprints that are listed below:

To treat stress, headaches, toothaches, and facial pain, apply pressure on your muscle that is situated between the thumb and index finger on either hand.

For migraine and low energy, the muscles behind the ear and back of the neck can be self-massaged for instant relief.

Being in larger crowds can be nauseating. Applying pressure around the muscles located on the side of your legs can help. 

Decreasing hypertension while on the move is possible. It is as easy as applying pressure in between eyebrows. This is also known as the third-eye point.

Been writing and typing in school or work all day? Apply mild pressure on the inside of both wrists to receive this pressure point’s soothing benefits.
