DIY hair rinse for lustrous hair - Spanish beauty tip

hair care tips
cranberry juice and fruitsYou might have tried different DIY after-shampoo hair-rinses for getting shiny, lustrous hair and I'm sure most of them have worked exceedingly well. Now another such DIY hair-rinse, that claims to give lustrous locks is actually a beauty tip from Spain.  The main ingredient of this hair-rinse is cranberry juice. To prepare this hair-rinse you have to mix one-fourth cup each of cranberry juice and water and use as a final after-shower rinse.

Spanish women also recommend using cranberries on your skin. Puree cranberries in a blender and massage this mixture all over your body while bathing. Cranberry, is rich in vitamin C and also contains tannins, flavanoids and Vitamin K; so a regular massage with cranberry puree can make your skin soft and glowing and do always with dryness and roughness. Now that winter has set in, this DIY remedy will prove all the more useful.

But if DIY recipes are not your cup of tea, then you might consider slathering cranberry body butter or cranberry body lotions such as this, this, this or this.

Pore shrinking mask recipes from home

A face with large open pores when seen from close quarters doesn’t look so good. While it’s quite common for oily skins to have a tendency towards open pores, an attack of pimples also leaves ugly scars and open pores behind.  Even though the scars may fade away after some time, open pores appear to be more obstinate and hardly show any signs of shrinking.  Age also takes its toll by giving an uneven/pigmented tone to the skin and making the open pores more prominent. Heredity could also be a contributing factor in determining your pore size. It’s not easy to get rid of these pores or shrink them completely or permanently using serums, lotions or face packs.

Home remedies for sleeplessness

The day dawns beautifully for those who have had a night of good sleep. But the same day drags on for those who have spent a disturbing, sleepless night. Sleep is a biological necessity even as eating and drinking are. Sufficient sleep renders a person normally sociable, lively and high-spirited. It’s a nature’s way of rejuvenating the person for the next day. Realize all this, and make sleep a physiological habit. The consequences of long time sleep deprivation can be very grave. Lack of sleep takes its toll on the skin and hair. It causes acne-breakouts and makes one look aged and haggard beyond years. Experts opine that during sleep as our metabolic rate falls, blood goes to those areas which need the most repairing. This also steps up the production of collagen and keratin, which aid the regeneration of skin cells and help resist premature ageing. So for a younger looking and a problem free skin you need to have a good quality of sleep every night.
