DIY Treament For Blackhead

The toxins and impurities that cause acne can be easily cured by Fenugreek, thats why its great for clearing out blackheads! 

Fenugreek seeds have excellent medicinal values. Fenugreek leaves are aromatic, cooling and mild laxative. Seeds give soothing effect to the skin and subside swelling and pain. They relieve water retention, flatulence and promote lactation in nursing mothers. Fenugreek is known as best cleansers. Fenugreek contains protein, vitamin c, niacin, potassium, fiber, calcium, phosphorous, carotene, thiamine, riboflavin and niacin. The seeds contain alkaloid trigonelline and choline, essential oil and saponin. Trigonelline has highly toxic action on neuromuscular preparations. The seeds also contain fixed and volatile oil, mucilage, bitter extractive and a yellow coloring substance.


Fenugreek seed is widely used as a galactagogue (milk producing agent) by nursing mothers to increase inadequate breast milk supply.

 How-to:

Use  fenugreek powder or  if you have seeds , you want to grind it up into a fine powder. Once you have it in powder form, youll want to add some warm water to it and mix it into a paste. Make sure you dont add too much water, because you want it to be a paste like consistency. Apply the fenugreek mixture on your face where you need it, usually where blackheads are or where you tend to get acne/have acne.

Try and keep the layer thin. You want to keep it on for about 20 minutes and then wash off with room temperature water or if you want really great benefits, wash your face then apply the mixture all over, or wherever you get blackheads or acne and sleep with it over night. Wash it off with room temperature water the next morning.


Using it over night works WONDERS! Try it out!

Winter Care

Winter is a time when hair needs more attention.My secret to a healthy hair is conditioning so the product which I love to death is coconut oil.

Coconut oil is extensively used in the Indian sub-continent for hair care. Most of the people in these countries apply coconut oil on their hair daily after bath. It is an excellent conditioner and helps in the re-growth of damaged hair.

Coconut oil is used for weight loss and even for skin care  It acts as an effective moisturizer on all types of skins including dry skin

Aquaphor Healing Ointment,Amlactin,Cortaid Intensive Therapy Moisturizing Cream are over-the-counter products not only look and sound medicinal but also are effective for treating dry skin

One of the biggest problems during winter are chapped lips. Use a lip balm with at least SPF 15 and preferably one with antiseptic agents to aid in healing. Some lip balm products are made with tea tree oil, which helps heal painful cracks.

 Your hands, feet, knees and elbows need to be looked after too, during winter. Use products containing shea butter, petrolatum, mineral oil, tea tree oil or glycerin. For intense relief, moisturise hands and feet at night, and then slip on gloves or socks to lock in the moisture 

You can use coconut oil for cooking too
 I would suggest you to use organic coconut oil.
