Remove Blackheads in a Natural Way
Even though they are quite invisible and only you can see them if you look very close in the mirror, blackheads are one of the most annoying things ever. First of all, if you have blackheads this means your face is not completely clean. Second they are unaesthetic and you just one them gone. The beauty industry promotes numerous cosmetic products to help you with get rid of blackheads. But, there is always the natural alternative, which I prefer and I recommend. Before you try any of the following natural treatments what you need to remember is: NEVER squish and squeeze. No good comes from these, trust me. All you need to do is clean your pores, and here are some ways you can do this at home:
Egg whites: You need to make a face mask from an egg white. Spread a thin layer and allow it to dry a little. Then continue with 2 more thin layers, allowing each one of them to dry before you apply the next one. Leave the mask on your face for 10-15 minutes and then gently scrub the mask of your face with warm water. It is true that the smell is not the most pleasant one, but the result makes it worth the sacrifice.
Honey: This one is as simple to make and apply as the first one. Just soak your fingers in a jar of sticky honey and start scrub the areas where you have blackheads. The nasty stuffs that leave inside your pores will stick to your fingers as you take them off your face. Simple, right?
Clay: Water and clay is all you need: 1 tablespoon of each. Mix them and apply the mask on your clean face. After 20 minutes, rinse it off with warm water. As you can see, all 3 masks are based only on 1 ingredient. Most probably you already have at least 2 of them already in your house. So, why not give a change to nature? It always comes to your rescue.

Learn How to Grow Your Hair Faster With 8 Foods
Whether you’re in the midst of trying to recover your strands from a misguided cut or simply want longer locks, you may have a hard time patiently waiting for your hair to grow. (We’ve been there.) Luckily, unlike the watched pot that never boils, concentrating on your hair growth can yield actual results, particularly when it comes to strategic eating. Here are eight foods that make your hair grow, recommended by Harvard and Yale Medical School-trained nutritionist Jayson Calton, PhD, and licensed nutritionist and fitness chef Mira Calton, CN. 1. Salmon: This fish is loaded with the strong hair supporters like Vitamin D and protein, but it also contains omega-3 fatty acids that promote hair growth by keeping your scalp healthy. 2. Yellow Peppers: Yellow bell peppers have nearly five and a half times more vitamin C than oranges (341 milligrams, as opposed to 63). This is good news for your locks since vitamin C is an antioxidant that strengthens the hair shaft and hair follicles, as well as prevents breakage.

Oysters: Zinc deficiency has been noted to cause hair loss and poor scalp conditions and oysters are loaded with zinc — just three ounces contain 493 percent of your daily value. But not just any oysters will do: Steer clear of the ones caught in the Gulf of Mexico, which may contain unusually high levels of Cadmium due to the 2010 BP oil spill. 4. Eggs: Eggs are an excellent source of those aforementioned omega-3s, and they are also contain biotin (which many people trying to grow their hair take in supplement form). But, just so you’re aware, it’s not the egg white that will make your hair long and beautiful, it’s the yolk. Eating too many egg whites can actually block the absorption of biotin into the body, causing a depletion of this micronutrient. 5. Sunflower Seeds: Just a few little seeds can supply you with an abundance of vitamin E, which will enhance blood flow to the scalp and promote faster hair growth. 6. Sweet Potatoes: These are loaded with beta carotene, the precursor for vitamin A that not only promotes a healthy scalp but promotes hair growth. But choose foods loaded with beta carotene over supplementing with high doses — like over 2500 milligrams — of vitamin A from retinol since it can be toxic at very high levels.

Avocados: Due to their high concentration of essential fatty acids naturally found in skin cells (which help to keep your skin smooth and supple), avocados are an age-old beauty secret. When topically applied to the hair and scalp, they have the added ability to stimulate collagen and elastin production. Mix a little avocado with sour cream (which contains lactic acid to help exfoliate dead skin and clean up buildup on the scalp) and apply to your hair and scalp for about ten minutes before washing it off. 8. Almonds: These nuts will make your hair grow faster and thicker due to their high biotin content. One cup contains nearly one-third of your daily requirement. You should be able to see the results in a month or two of adding them to your diet. Image via Fabrice Lerouge/ONOKY

How to Get a Smaller Waist in Just a Week
Do you want to achieve that hourglass figure just like your favorite actress? Has a slim waist been your dream, and do you often feel it is something impossible to achieve?
1. Alter Your Diet: Scientific studies conclude that eating whole grains, along with fruits and other vegetables helps you reduce the amount of fat you consume. Consuming whole grains is healthier as they contain no preservatives. This is one of the best ways to get slimmer within a week. Remember that fruits sometimes contain high amounts of sugar and eating too many fruits can be counterproductive. Doctors say you need to reduce 3,500 calories from your diet to lose one pound. The threshold for healthy weight loss is 2 pounds a week, so don’t starve yourself with fad diets. Eat healthier, not lesser.
2. Drink More Water: Another important thing to do when trying to lose weight is drinking more water. This helps prevent your body from getting confused between thirst and hunger. To limit the tendency to binge on food, drink more water. It is good for the skin and hair as well.
3. Focus On Quality, And Not On Quantity: Usually, people who diet tend to not eat anything, as opposed to eating healthy foods that don’t add excess fat or sugar to your body. The secret to dieting is eating more healthy meals, which do not add excess calories to your body.
4. Exercise: Wondering how to make waist smaller in a week? Exercise is the perfect solution! Yes, the most obvious thing to do for getting slimmer is exercise. Thus, you getting a trimmer waist will depend on how hard you are willing to work. Results will only follow when you put in the effort and dedicate yourself to the causes. However, take care and ensure that you begin gradually. Don’t psyche yourself up for the first day and overexert yourself or get injured. Increase the exercise intensity gradually. Make an exercise plan, where you begin at a basic level working through all stages and performing more intense and longer exercise routines. Maintain an exercise journal or leave an update on Twitter to remind yourself of what is to be done. Often, when you announce something in public, you are more obliged to do it. With time, you will begin to enjoy regular exercise without feeling worn out or disinterested. Along with trimming your waist, this will also ensure that you live a healthier life. You can also perform target-specific exercises, especially the ones that help shape the waist. These exercises are quite important; even though you cannot directly target weight loss on the waist, you certainly perform certain exercises that tone and slim your mid-section muscles.

7 Beauty Tricks You Can Do With a Spoon
There are numerous beauty tools out there from spoolies to sponges and brushes galore. But, what happens when you’re in a rush and your essentials are lost in the depths of your makeup drawer — possibly never to be seen again? You go into your kitchen and grab this unexpected utensil — a spoon. Spoons aren’t just for food anymore! Here are the tricks on how to officially integrate one into your beauty routine.
1. Hold a spoon underneath your lower lashes to efficiently coat them with mascara, without the mess. For extra-dramatic lashes, try Urban Decay Perversion Mascara. 2. When your lash curler is MIA, place the back end of a spoon against your lid and lightly press your lashes against the edge for dramatic curl! 3. Woke up to dreaded puffy under eye bags? Throw two spoons in the freezer while you get ready for your day and once they’re cold, gently glide them underneath your eyes from the inner to outer corners in order to drain fluid and also reduce puffiness in a pinch. 4. As if contouring isn’t tricky enough! Make it easier by placing a spoon over the apples of your cheeks and brush a little sculpting powder just below. Make sure to blend out any lines! 5. Perfect your cat eye by using the handle of a spoon to assist you in drawing a straight, winged line, then flip the spoon and use the rounded edge to create the curved tip! 6. Spoon uses don’t stop at makeup! Use the tip of a spoon to gently push back your cuticles when there’s no time for your monthly mani. 7. Help heal a new pimple by applying a hot (but, comfortable) spoon to it until it cools off. Run hot water over the spoon, and test the temperature on the back of your hand before applying it to your face.
