Why You Should Not Care About Different Types of Acne

July 3, 2019 by Anjali Lobo Leave a Comment

If you suffer from acne, I’m sure you’ve come across articles with titles like “The Different Types of Acne”. Or maybe some version of them. I always read articles with titles like this with a little bit of annoyance. Why the annoyance you might wonder. It’s because these articles never had any cure for any of the types of acne they listed.

People with acne have very little interest in the type of acne they have. We need a cure or what we can do about acne. I know I have acne. I don’t know about you but never have I wondered what type of acne it is, but what I am mainly reading the article for is a hope of a cure mentioned somewhere.

Natural Ways To Wash Your Face That Actually Heal Acne

January 16, 2019 by Anjali Lobo Leave a Comment

I have to admit right off, that I’ve never been a natural skin care sort of person. By that I mean that I always bought my skin care. I have always used face washes, face masks, moisturisers that come in a packet or a jar, rather than from my kitchen. And never ever did I think that I would make the shift to using mostly natural skin care. I still do use commercially available skin care these days. But I am very particular about what I put on my skin these days.

So what prompted this change to natural skin care? I will explain this in this post as well as give you tips on natural ways to wash your face.

I’ve always used soap or face wash on my face. All those years I had acne, I used a face wash. Twice every day, every single day. Some of these soaps or face washes were recommended to me by my dermatologist. So there was no doubt in my mind at that time, that they were actually good for my skin. Even though I never saw any positive change in my skin, I used to feel they were doing their job.

What Are Hydrosols and How To Use Them In Your Beauty Routine

This is a guest post by Trysh Sutton of Pure Path.

Hydrosols are a health and beauty hack that few people know about – which is strange because they have been around for hundreds of years. In fact, they have been around for as long as many of your favorite essential oils because the two are directly related.

What Are Hydrosols?

Simply put, hydrosols are the byproducts of making essential oils. When plant and flower materials are processed through steam or water distillation to extract the oils, you will end up with two separate products. The first is the essential oil, and the second is the leftover or condensate water which contains small traces of the essential oils and the plant’s aroma, left over from distillation. This water is what is referred to as hydrosols.
