DIY - Face Serum


A serum is a skin care product that you apply to your skin after cleansing and before moisturizing. Serums help give your skin a fresher, younger and healthier appearance. Face serums are light weight moisturizers that penetrate deeper to deliver active ingredients into your skin. It is mostly recommended for mature skin or skin having dark spots or dull skin. Here, I would like to give a simple DIY to make face serum easily. Do give it a try and give your experiences. I am using this serum for the last one year and can see the glow on my face.


Things required:   (makes around 50 gms)
Aloevera gel                                                 - 3 spoons
Badam oil/extra virgin coconut oil           - ¾ spoon
Rose essential oil                                         - 10 drops
Vitamin E capsules                                       - 4
Rose water                                                    - 10 ml



Method:
 In a bowl mix aloevera gel and badam oil with a spoon nicely till you get a semi-solid gel texture. Add rose essential oil, Vitamin E oil (cut the capsules and mix the oil) and rose water and mix gently till you get a smooth gel. Your serum is ready. Fill it in a wide mouth bottle. You can use this serum whenever you wash your face.
Those who have oily skin, use less badam oil and essential oil. Similarly those who have very dry skin, can add more accordingly.
Note: Please do skin test before using the serum regularly. For this apply a little serum on the back of your hand and leave it for a few hours. If there is no irritation or redness then only use it.

Managing Diabetes

In addition, the blood that contains high levels of sugar goes to all parts of the body, so any part that is sensitive to high blood sugar is affected. High blood sugar can result in damage to the large and small blood vessels, nerve damage and can increase risk of infections.

Personality Development

The personality of an individual is judged by his/her appearance, behavior, attitude, education, values and some more varying features. Personality development is often confused with enhancing your dressing sense and having command over English language. A person who dresses well and speaks fluent English isn’t necessarily supposed to have a good personality. Personality development is an all round development. Jack Canifield has rightly said, “If you keep doing what you have always done, you’ll keep getting what you’ve always got.” Acknowledging and facing your fear may actually mean a better chance of survival. It is always an opportunity to grow, learn and improve your confidence and success. Think of your fears as a challenge to be overcome, or a problem to be solved. Personality development grooms an individual, reduces stress and conflicts, develop a positive attitude in life. It means enhancing and grooming one’s outer and inner self to bring about a positive change to

Healthy Lifestyle

Today, everyone knows that to be healthy we should lead a healthy lifestyle. But at times, we get confused about what is healthy lifestyle. The way we are living is our lifestyle. Now, how can we make it healthy? People in our society can be categorized like bachelors/single women, married men, married working women, homemakers etc. who may need to think to bring some changes in their lifestyle. Working bachelors can be either staying at home with their family( parents and siblings) or have to shift to other city and are staying with friends or in hostel/ PG. Healthy lifestyle broadly can be classified in four steps: 1) Eat healthy 2) Exercise regularly 3) Reduce stress 4) Drink plenty of water The key is to be consistent. Whatever changes you bring to your lifestyle should be exercised regularly. It may seem difficult at first, but please make a start. Like first you may be able to do it twice or thrice in a week. Let it be. We cannot expect to change our lives in a day.
