Safe Ways to Say Goodbye to Blackheads

Dealing with blackheads is as hard as managing pimples. Some even have fair, smooth skin but still with blackheads, making it still look far from perfect. Those tiny black dots most often appearing on the nose are like stains on a white piece of cloth considerably visible to everyone.

Pricking them out is a famous way of removing it but is in fact a big no no. Your fingertips and nails might even have more bacteria that could aggravate your dilemma. The safest ways of handling blackheads problem are the following:

  1. Wash your face with a mild cleanser and warm water. You can do it everytime you feel like being oily.
  2. Do not apply make-up on skin that is prone to get blackheads.
  3. Excess moisturizers can cause increase in oil on your skin, thereby increasing blackheads appearance. Avoid using too much and refrain from using bar soaps.
  4. Use two separate towels for your face and your body.
  5. Avoid oily foods to get rid of blackheads. Eat fruits and vegetables. 
  6. Change pillowcase as frequent as possible. The oil produced by hair can accumulate on pillow case and then get into your face.
  7. Hot steam widens the pores and allows removing excess oil. Have it often to soften the blackheads stuck onto your face. This is one of the recommended ways to get rid of blackheads.
  8. Always maintain having clean skin to remove excessive oil and dirt.
Maintain a smooth, blackhead-free skin to flaunt and have your way to show what you got.

    A $2 Million Bra

    Victoria's Secret has launched their new "Bombshell Fantasy" bra. It was modeled by Adriana Lima in a New York City Stunt last October 20, 2010. This new bra really costs a lot of fortune with a price tag of two million dollars. What makes it so expensive is because it's made with 60 carats of white diamonds, plus 82 carats of topazes and sapphires.

    With that high price, whoever buys it can really wear and flaunt it the way Lima did! Just make sure you're also guarded by handsome men while you're walking around the city!

    Happy Feet!


    Sexy and healthy-looking feet are truly an asset. Buying and wearing fancy shoes are not enough and absolutely won't fake what the real condition of your feet is.

    If you're dying to have a pair of feet that would make you look beautiful from head to toe, try these helpful steps:

    Have a twice a month regimen. Pamper them. Have a footspa and get your nails done. You don't even have to go to a spa and pay. Do them yourself and save moolah. As to pedicure, if you're like me who can't do it efficiently, know someone who can do it for you without you cursing them inside during and after the process. Remember to coat your nails with light and dark shades of polish one after the other to prevent your nails to turn yellow.

    Have at least two pairs of shoes and wear them alternately by day. This would prevent microorganisms from accumulating and therefore avoid you from having foot diseases.

    I usually hear people saying don't sacrifice comfort over fashion but this just won't do with shoes. Shoes shoes shoes. They're really something girls go crazy about. It's definitely not easy to find comfortable stilettos but as much as you can, buy the most comfy ones.

    Be beautiful from head to heel and have your man go head over heels about you.

    Dreaming of that Perfect Smokey Eye Look?


    Sexy, classic and sophisticated. What other powerful eye make up look would give you these but smokey eyes? Put your gaze on your someone with this look on and watch him react on you like he's never been.

    How to achieve it? First, apply concealer on your lower and upper lids. This would prepare them for the shadow. Next, line your lash lines with the liner. With a brush, soften the edges of the pencil line. Apply a dark shadow. Go with gray, black or dark green. Blue shadow is not recommended by some make up experts as it usually makes you look like you have undereye circles. Using a larger brush, apply a lighter shadow with neutral color like ivory. To complete the look, apply 2-3 layers of mascara. Voila! You're done. Come out and flaunt your eyes.
