    Smashbox?

    Make up removers are very important for the skin to keep it clean and away from the after affects of the make up. If make up isn’t removed after the use then it enters into the pores and the chemicals in the make up can damage the skin. So one should always make it a point to remove the make up from the skin while going to bed and let the skin breathe.

    Facial make up as foundation and lipsticks can be easily removed with water based make up cleansers but eye make up as liners, kohl and mascara needs something extra. They require more of oil in the remover solution to remove the stubborn eye make up.

    Eye makeup remover will make washing the products off your face at the end of the day a hassle-free experience. If you are in the habit of using soap, you may find that not only is soap drying, it also usually requires scrubbing and multiple washes, which can irritate the skin.

    Baby shampoo is an excellent way to remove mascara that is resistant to other kinds of removers. Waterproof mascara can be one of the most difficult mascaras to remove as it is designed for staying power and a little bit of baby shampoo applied to a cotton ball or your finger tips should do the tricky nicely. Baby shampoos contain lower concentrations and softer detergents than other shampoos which makes them less irritating to the eye area. Baby shampoo can also be used to remove makeup on the face but use a very small amount as too much can be drying to the skin.

    Best alternativefor oily and all sin types:if you don’t wana use any oil on your face for removing make up,best way is to dip cotton balls in raw milk and just wipe your face with it. It is the cheapest way of removing makeup.

    Mineral oil is best for remoing make up.it is even cheaper than baby oil.since,babay oil is nothing more than mineral oil with fragrence and both give same results.

    Always use a mild makeup remover. Nothing harsh or drying to the skin- and never use makeup remover that is specifically for your eyes on other parts of your face. This is particularly important if you suffer from oily skin as this can lead to break outs. Pay attention to what the label says as it specifies these things for a reason!

    To remove makeup naturally without clogging pores and moisturize skin at the same time, use unrefined pure oils like jojoba, wheat germ or rose hip oil. Massage it directly into your skin or wipe skin with a cotton pad saturated with the oil. Finish by gently wiping skin with a steamy, damp cloth.

    Using a dry towel or absorbent pad press on the stain to draw moisture and stain particles out of the surface area. Continue this pattern using an alternating combination of saturation and pressure until the stain is removed. If the stain still remains you may want to try flushing the area with water and adding a few drops of ammonia. This will further help to draw out the stain. Cover it with a towel or absorbent pad and allow it to absorb the stain.

    Choosing the Best Chocolate for Your Health

    raw mineral makeup
    Eric Allen asked:

    Almost daily in the news we see reports of chocolate’s health benefits. It’s a potent antioxidant, and is chock-full of chemicals and nutrients that have been attributed to making us happy. Yet many of us remain skeptical; eating lots of chocolate doesn’t seem to make us feel better, and in fact can lower energy levels for awhile. So what gives? If chocolate is such a miracle food, shouldn’t we be able to eat it all the time, without guilt and feel great? Well, yes, we can, but the way chocolate is prepared is crucial to unlocking its true potential as a health food. If you’d like to learn how to have a healthy dose of chocolate daily, read on…

    Like so many things in our modern world, its the processing of chocolate that makes all the difference. This isn’t just the New Age Hippy types saying this either (as one, the author feels comfortable making this statement). Food chemists and researchers who analyze the molecular makeup of our diets are of the same opinion. It’s RAW, minimally-processed chocolate that’s the miracle food. Un-roasted, un-cooked plain old powdered chocolate, better known as ‘Cacao’, is far superior in every way for your health. Cacao is one of the few foods on the planet now being called a ’super’-food, as it’s nutrient density is so high and its health benefits are so great. Note that ‘organic’ does not mean ‘raw’. Even the premium organic hot-chocolate powders found in the high-end health food stores is still roasted and usually processed with alkali (called ‘Dutch Processing’, making it easier to dissolve in water, and destroying most of the antioxidants at the same time). This means that 99% of the chocolate products on the shelves are NOT the superfood you wished they were, but it also points the direction to how to include chocolate in your life on an exceptionally health daily basis. We’ll get to some recipes in a moment, but first a few points to help you remember why raw chocolate is where it’s at.

    First the question of Caffeine. Many folks are sensitive to caffeine’s effect on their nervous system. It raises blood pressure, shortens tempers and keeps people awake. There are however, significant differences in the alkaloid structures of raw and roasted chocolate. Raw chocolate’s stimulation comes primarily from theobromine, which has little anxiety producing effects. Studies by natural wellness professionals and user reports both note that while commercially prepared dark chocolate has a very stimulating action that caffeine sensitive individuals may find too strong, an equivalent amount of raw cacao does not. The stimulating effects are reported mild, gentle, and without a ‘crash’ that is often associated with caffeine. A reason for mothers to think about creating their own raw chocolate treats for their children, too. The jury is still out on the actual amount if caffeine in raw chocolate; some investigators have found none, some have found small amounts in the ’skin’ of the cacao beans, and others of found only small amounts in beans that have fermented somewhat (an indication of a lower-quality cacao). Either way, if you’ve refrained from chocolate because of it’s caffeine content, raw cacao may just be your answer to enjoying this treat again.

    The really big news about chocolate has been it’s antioxidant profile. Chocolate contains significant amounts of polyphenols — the same important antioxidants found in green tea, red wine and green apples — but in greater amounts. Dark chocolate contains an impressive 5% of these compounds, yet raw chocolate is made up of an incredible 10% concentration of these possibly life-extending molecules. Both roasting and processing with alkali (to make Dutch cocoa) reduce antioxidant concentration. Further, the increased absorbability of powdered raw cacao (perhaps the most versatile form of raw chocolate) over cacao nibs give them an edge in ORAC value, a measure of Oxidative Radical Absorbance Capacity.

    Maybe the most intriguing constituents of chocolate are it’s mood-altering chemicals besides its stimulation. Many users of raw chocolate find and even greater boost than from commercial chocolates. Like caffeine, some of the molecules attributed to mood-enhancement are also heat sensitive. Tryptophan, a precursor to serotonin, is present in significant amounts and is known to be broken down by heat (and apparently it’s not the Tryptophan in the turkey dinners that makes one tired, it’s the three servings followed by pie and ice cream!). Other natural constituents are dopamine and precursors to dopamine, one molecule called the ‘love chemical’ and another called the ‘bliss chemical’. Add to these monoamine oxidase inhibitors which actually enhance the activity of all of the above mood brighteners. Finally, there’s lots of easily absorbed magnesium in raw chocolate, a mineral associated with serotonin production (many pharmaceutical antidepressants increase serotonin activity), and the ability to relax. Raw chocolate offers the healthiest and most effective means of adding these happy-making nutrients to your daily diet.

    Need more be said? Ready for some recipes? The simplest means of eating raw chocolate is snacking on cacao nibs. These are small pieces of cacao beans that mix well with natural granolas or dried fruit. For the absolute most profound positive effects on your health, AND the most versatile form of raw chocolate for your recipes, pre-powdered raw chocolate is the best choice. The powder can be added to any drink, or easily made into bars, drops or other shaped candies. By far the most often enjoyed recipe for raw chocolate powder is the simple chocolate drink: Put one heaping tablespoon raw cacao powder, one teaspoon raw agave nectar, and one teaspoon high quality coconut oil in a blender (note that coconut oil quality varies greatly - a good coconut oil should taste pleasant by itself and have no chemical or rancid flavor which would otherwise be noticed in your chocolate drink). Add eight to twelve ounces of hot (but not boiling water) and blend at low speed for about ten seconds. That’s it; Chocolate magic that’s easily adjusted to your tastes — experimenting in whatever way comes to mind is highly encouraged.

    There are lots and lots of recipes out there, and great reading on raw chocolate’s health benefits and preparation. You’ll cacao powder often combined with other super nutritious foods in smoothies and good-for-you deserts. Natural organic candies start with the same ingredients as the drinks, but without the liquid. Mixing the chocolate and coconut oil is easiest with your hands (as this gently melts the coconut oil) — making a paste to which you can add any little natural crunchy treats. As you’re not baking anything, there’s little to go awry, and really, so many possibilities. By using raw chocolate, you’ll open up a whole new world of cooking for yourself and your family — and if you hadn’t before, you might just find yourself really motivated to treat yourself to natural health and wellness.

    Acne Treatments That Work For You Now Naturally

    Helen Hecker asked:

    Consider cheaper, alternative, natural, effective treatment methods to get the best cure for your acne, zit, pimple or blackhead problem. By their mid-teens, nearly 35% of teenagers have acne severe enough to require some type of treatment from a medical professional. Many people needlessly suffer from acne because of a lack of knowledge or understanding.

    Nearly 80 percent of people from ages 11 to 30 years have acne, most often on the face, chest and back. Acne is a group of skin rashes that have different causes. For most people, acne goes away by age 30, but people in their forties and fifties still suffer from acne. People of all races and ages have acne.

    Understanding that hormones may have some influence on the cause of acne is still being researched. Check your shampoo to make sure it isn’t causing pimples or other breakouts on your forehead. Experts just can’t agree on what causes acne.

    Raw apple cider vinegar application to the skin is a cheap, alternative acne treatment that has worked for many adults, teens and children with acne, zits, pimples, or blemishes. Make sure to stay out of the sun if you’re taking any acne medications. Never underestimate the healing, restorative power of a good night’s sleep.

    Coconut oil is very inexpensive; it’s a good, cheap, natural home remedy. Any makeup you use should list on the label non-acnegenic or non-comedogenic. It’s always best to seek non-invasive and natural treatment for any skin condition.

    No over-the-counter creams can help your acne from the inside out; they can only kill some of the bacteria on your face and help reduce the redness. When you wash your face use a soft touch, taking care not to rub or scrub your skin. Too many chemicals can strip your skin of its natural oils and the skin will overproduce oil to compensate for it, blocking your pores and causing more acne.

    Acne and its treatment is one of the most misunderstood topics there is when it comes to acne skin care. Try not to touch your affected skin to eliminate possible contamination. This is a little messy but you can try making a paste by mixing three tablespoons of honey and one teaspoon of cinnamon together and applying the paste on your pimples at bedtime for two weeks, and wash it off each morning; honey has anti-bacterial action - a cheap, natural home remedy.

    Try relaxation techniques to reduce stress, including meditation and yoga breathing exercises. Use exercise such as Yoga and Tai Chi to improve blood flow to the skin and support the healing process; it also boosts the condition of your internal organs which allows them to eliminate toxins more effectively.

    Besides external acne treatment it’s even more important to work from the inside out too. When you change your diet, your lesions should start getting better within a week or two, with significant improvement the first month. Adding a lot of fresh, raw fruit to the diet has helped many people clear their skin up; there are tons of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients in fruits.

    Some alternative doctors recommend eating a raw clove of garlic daily for acne; you can chop one up and add it to your daily salad! Essential fatty acids are particularly important to people with inflammatory conditions such as eczema and acne.

    When the skin is dehydrated, dead skin cells remain on the skin which may block pores and promote acne; drink plenty of water. Drink freshly extracted carrot juice, if you can, every day; carrot juice is an excellent cleanser for the liver, great for the skin and contains tons of nutrients, all beneficial for acne. For an easy fiber boost, mix in two tablespoons of ground up flaxseeds into raw applesauce, from two to three apples, made in your food processor.

    The two most common digestive concerns that affect your skin are not enough water and not enough fiber. Good nutrition will help your skin from the inside out.

    Analyze all the acne treatments available and make the best decision for you, based on your circumstances. With cheap, safe, simple, natural, effective, alternative home treatments for acne and pimples, your skin should be well on its way to recovery. One should always think about cheaper, alternative, natural, effective treatment methods to get the best cure or solution to their acne, zits, pimples and blackhead problems.

Many people don’t realize how easy it is to receive samples from a company, many times it is as easy as submitting your information so that they can send you the product.

    Signing up to receive free makeup samples is a simple way to try a product before purchasing it. Usually the freebies are sent in small packages or bottles, the manufacturer will send just enough product to allow you to try it for a day or two.

    Another advantage to signing up for freebies is that you can use the samples when you travel.

    Cheap And Natural Pimple Treatments

    Helen Hecker asked:

    Consider cheaper, alternative, natural, effective treatment methods to get the best cure for your acne, zit, pimple or blackhead problem. By their mid-teens, nearly 35% of teenagers have acne severe enough to require some type of treatment from a medical professional. Living with acne can be very difficult, and even more difficult to find just the right acne treatment for you.

    In a survey conducted in Great Britain, 95% of 16-year-old males and 83% of 16 year-old females had acne. People of all races and ages have acne. Acne rosacea is a red rash predominantly on the face. Acne vulgaris is most commonly experienced around puberty, typically of the face, shoulders and chest.

    I think the cause of acne is related to our acidic, inflammatory ’standard American diet’ (SAD) and that would also influence all of our hormones including stress hormones. Doctors think certain factors might cause or contribute to acne including hormone increases in teenage years, hormone changes in pregnancy, starting or stopping birth control pills, heredity, medicines and greasy make-up. Scientists are trying to find the cause of acne and working on ways to prevent plugs.

    Raw apple cider vinegar application to the skin is a cheap, alternative acne treatment that has worked for many adults, teens and children with acne, zits, pimples, or blemishes. Popping pimples can cause infection and scarring; best not to do it. One helpful remedy seems to be to use ice to reduce the swelling caused by inflamed pimples: rub it over the blemishes for 2-3 minutes.

    Shave carefully and try both electric and safety razors to see which works best for you. Try relaxation techniques to reduce stress, including meditation and yoga breathing exercises. Drinking lots of pure, filtered water may be one of the most important things you can do for your acne, working from the inside out.

    It bears repeating, you want to be good to your skin and never pop or squeeze a pimple no matter how tempting. Make sure not to use hot water on your face, always use lukewarm water. Try a diligent application of coconut oil several times a day and at bedtime to see the healing benefits.

    Too many chemicals can strip your skin of its natural oils and the skin will overproduce oil to compensate for it, blocking your pores and causing more acne. Use exercise such as Yoga and Tai Chi to improve blood flow to the skin and support the healing process; it also boosts the condition of your internal organs which allows them to eliminate toxins more effectively. For the best acne treatment that has worked for many apply virgin coconut oil to the area daily; try it on a small test area for a day or two first.

    Any makeup you use should list on the label non-acnegenic or non-comedogenic. If you’re going to buy acne products, it’s much more worth your while to buy acne-treating products that work against current pimples and prevent the occurrence of new ones.

    To cure yourself of acne, you need to correct the problems going on inside of your body that are causing the acne. When your liver gets overloaded with toxins it’ll send the toxins out through your skin as well as other organs of elimination. Adding a lot of fresh, raw fruit to the diet has helped many people clear their skin up; there are tons of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients in fruits.

    The best acne treatment is a diet that will help the body eliminate waste; if you’re eating the standard American diet (SAD) it’ll be reflected in your skin. Some alternative doctors recommend eating a raw clove of garlic daily for acne; you can chop one up and add it to your daily salad!

    Eating fruits that are red or orange in color will help improve you skin health and help to prevent acne. Good clear skin is often a reflection of a good digestive system. The two most common digestive concerns that affect your skin are not enough water and not enough fiber.

    The next time you want to have a snack, instead of junk food, help your skin - have an apple, orange, peach, pear, banana, plum, berries or any other fruit. Drink plenty of pure, filtered water, a minimum of a quart a day.

    You should see the results of your cheap acne home treatment remedies, with improved skin, within just a few days. Naturally you can’t expect to get rid of your acne in just a few days; natural treatments take a little time to work; but if you’re persistent, you’ll get skin free of pimples and blemishes without the serious side effects that you find in commercial acne medicines. And whatever you do, stop wasting your money buying hundreds of dollars in acne or pimple skin care treatments; use cheaper natural methods.
