Dry skin around the nose.

I think something changed to onsugar or i have not used onsugar in a long time.
Anyways, topic is dry skin around the nose.

Sign of dry skin:
~dry skin
~red
~itchy
~painful

To treat it:
You can go to a facial treatment centre or try this really easy step .

What you will need :
Lotion for dry skin
some ice cubes
dry towel

Steps:

1st,
Wash your face with water, if you usually use something to wash with it,you can use that too.

2nd,
Dry it with your towel

3rd,
Apply the lotion around the nose area where it is dry.

4th,
Put the ice cubes at the area where you have put the lotion. (Do not remove the lotion)

5th,
If the ice cubes starts to melt and turn small, wipe the water around your nose.

6th,
Repeat these steps. Do it twice daily.

Be sure that your skin is not allergic to the lotion.

If this does not work, try another simple steps to prevent from having dry skin
around your nose.

Try using moisturisers or lotion to prevent dry skin.
Another way is to try making your home-made scrub.

Again, please do make sure that you are not allergic to any of these items.

What you will need:
Exra Virgin Olive Oil
Honey
Granulated sugar
Chopstick/spoon
small container

Steps:
~Pour three tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil in the container

~Put two tablespoon of Honey in the same container.

~Pour half a cup of sugar into the mixture.

~Stir the mixture together. make sure you stir it well.

~Now you have your home-made scrub to help prevent dry skin.

~Scrub it in circular motions but avoid the eye area becasue it is very delicate.

~Leave it for at least 60 seconds(1 minute).

~ Rinse it off when you are done.

~Pat it dry.

~ If you usually use any moisturisers, apply it.

*Try not to keep it refrigerated, it will harden the scrub .
*You must remove your make up and cleansed it, after which use the scrub.
**It is recomended to be used only at night, once a week.
It can last for atleast a month.

All of the materials used is to help exfoliate & rehydrate the skin from dryness.

Good luck in making your own scrub! A shout out to Nana too!

Height

This tip is for the petite readers [i hope there are readers]. When you are small and you just wished that you would be taller, what do you do? Well the best solution is to wear those high heel shoes but of course if your in school how the hell are you going to do that? Here is a video that could help you to gain a little height by exercising and streching yourself.

 

 

Well other then that you can try to have a balance diet and just maybe those hormones help you grow. My tips aren't that professional but they are quite helpful. Besides the internet is wide, go search. Goodbye.

Flu bug, Long gone or still on?

Flu makes you feel like you want to dig all that mucus out of your friggin nose, but ofcourse you can't do that.

Now, how do you prevent it, or maybe cure it? Well here are some lifestyle tips or diet tips?

Just some food that can help you prevent form getting a flu,

Strange but true, garlic and onions are one of them.

Garlic and onion:

Garlic's medicinal benefit is most potent when used raw so consider adding it to salad dressings for this use.The flavonoids in onions actually work with vitamin C to help kill harmful bacteria. It's hard to find a savory recipe that doesn't use onions but consider making a soothing and delicious pot of onion soup or include onions with slow roasted winter vegetables.

Including bright coloured fruits and vegetables.

Oranges and lemon?

While nutritionists tout the health benefits of beta carotene, its conversion into vitamin A in the body has immune boosting qualities as well.Just that simple change increases antioxidants significantly and also provides more vitamin C and trace minerals.

 

Well the important thing is find some food that has vitamin c. (inserts smiley face)

This is just basic information do more research if you want to know more.

Revision

September 03, 2009

Exams are around the corner. For me it's in three weeks time including the Holidays.

Well, the holidays are actually for us students to get a rest and chill after a whole term of hard work, or maybe not. Since there is only three weeks to exams and you are going to be busy for the other two weeks of your school days as you will have homework, use the holiday as an extra or getting ready time to revise your subject, or maybe make notes.

Here are somethings that you should consider , or not do:

  • Do not panic
  • Do not cram everything
  • Do it all at once
  • Do not be boring


Here are so things that you should do:

  • Just relax
  • Get organise
  • Prioritise things
  • Be creative


Relax :

Do calm yourself down maybe have an ice cream or go shopping or do something that calm and relaxes you. Don't go overboard and focus too much on pampering yourself though.Maybe using the first day of your dear one week holiday to relax yourself.. Just an idea. You could actually go to the library or some place comfortable and do your notes. Like for an example, you like to eat and do your work, only then you can finish it then maybe you could go to a fast food restaurant and do your work. You might finish it in a much faster rate.

Get organise:

Spread the time to the whole week. Because we only have two brain and it needs rest , hence you can't absorb all of the information in one day. But, if you have only a day or even worse 15 minutes before the exams and you panic, the best thing to do is to be organise! Which is the whole idea.

Prioritise things:

Have a to do list, like me.You should write down the things that you want to do first then do it but make sure to cancel it off so that you know you have done it. It can also make you feel like you achieve something. Hence it gives you a positive impact and makes you feel like doing the next one.

Be creative:

Making your notes with colourful pens help your eyes to be active or "wake up" from the boring blue ink on foolscap paper. Also, researchers found out that if notes are in colour it will help your brains know the flow. like from A to B. Also, try to put some pictures to make it look interesting and let you understand that word if you don't know it. After doing the notes and you feel satisfied with it, put it in your walls on your room.  You could make a story out of it before you sleep and wake up tomorrow with a fresh memory.


Hope everything works out for you guys. Good luck!

I'm going to elaborate on those who are into this concept : scene.

If you don't know what concept that is, don't bother to read this post. Okayy, so if you wanna b a scenekid all you have to do is to know more about it. And i am here to help you. Hairstyle needs to be big and puffy at the top , long and straight at the bottom. I'm not going to elaborate on the whole scene concept. You can research it online, i prefer Wikihow . OKayy, so here goes nothing.

What you will need :

  • Hairspray [please buy eco friendly one]
  • comb
  • your trusty hands
  • Miror
  • Really choppy and layered hair

 

What to do :

  1. Prepare all your materials
  2. Spray some hairspray at the ROOTS of your hair
  3. tease your hair with your comb not a brush
  4. make sure your upper choppy part of your hair is tease enough untill you are happy
  5. straighten your longer part of your hair.
  6. Thats it.
  7. Good luck.

 

Here are some photo on how your hair should look like:

 

 

That is how your hair should look like after the hardcore teasing.

I hope this was helpful.xoxo

First.

Oh My God. I feel so elated using this, it's like cooler and awesome-mer than blogger. Like wayy better.

Okay now, onsugar is easier to use and it is much more organise which makes me more happy as i 

can easily find my way when i get lost. [How the hell can i get lost in the internet].

By saying that i sound like i'm doing a review on onsugar which is funny. Or maybe not.

I have'nt tell my friends about me switching to this  site, i think i will do so in a few. Maybe. I don't know.

I have no idea what to post about. I'll tell about my day today first and then tell about a cooler thing

which may catch your attention [anyone who is reading it].

So today, in the morining went out early to my aunt house to help out with my cousin's engagement ceremony. I was like being so helpful [praising myself]. But seriously, i did a lot of work man. Like when i came out of the lift to the corridor of the house i went zooming [your hair move by the air of my swiftness] inside to help out. After helping out, wrapped uo some food and went to geylang.

At geylang looked for baju raya. I can't believe that i actually bought one there. Why?When someone says the word Geylang i immediatly think of the smelly wet market. Sorry i can't help it. It just gross me out. so yeah bought the raya top and bottom and came home afterwards. Slept in the car while on the way home.

My legs are aching, so is my stomach. I should have eaten at the ceremony but i did eat at geylang. What suprised me was that the food there was great. it was spicy enough for a slender body like me. You guys should really try it. [But try what fuums?] Try the kuay teow goreng , indian dish. [But which stall fuums?] It's at the very last section of the coffee shop, the first stall on the right. If you still don't understand, ask me at school.

Now i'm posting something onsugar. LOL.

Okayy, i'm going to find something cool to post about.

68 seconds after searching, i found something, ways of tying  neat  ponytail. Ofcourse you can search on the net and use it. Yeahh i'm stupid. But it would be easier if you just read it ffrom here. Right?[agree with me please]

This is base from my knowledge and some research.

You should have a small bottle of water that has the spray pressing thing on top [just like me]. To make it better, add a little salt in it which would make it hold your hair better.

When tying your hair use a brush, it will look much more natural and it can grab hold of the "saltwater". You could use a comb but i suggest not as it will not look natural.

Tilt you head up to gather up the hair at the bottom pat of you head. This makes it easier and neater to tie the bottom hair. After gathering all the hair tie it up and there you go.

You could use hairspray so that your hair will remain the same and not get messy. But using hairspry will make your hair weak and it's not good for it.

I hope this helps.

Goodbye!
