Beauty and Health Tips Using Limes.



Limau nipis and limau kasturi surely does more than a wonderful cooling drink on a hot day. 

 It provides vitamin C and flavenoids, both containing antioxidant, antibiotic and disinfectant agents beneficial for clear skin.

 Here are a few beauty and health tips using these citrus. It's cheap, natural and organic, worth the try.

1. Lime juice wash for acne-free, clear and bright skin

My friend  shared this tip with me and i have been doing this for almost a month now. I have a super oily skin and since then, I've noticed that it has become less oily, smoother, brighter and glowing. 

 Lime juice can wash away your acne in two to three weeks with daily topical use. Cut the lime into half and apply the juice directly onto your acne and allow the juice to dry for 10 to 15 minutes. Rinse it off with cold water. 

 Do this about twice a day. It might sting and itch a little bit but no pain, no gain right?

 Vitamin C uols, haruslah brightening gitu kan. 
Close enough girls
2. Lime or lemon drink
In the earlier post I have mentioned about The Lemon Water Detox. This is similar to that. A lime or lemon juice drink helps clear up acne by detoxifying the body, adding the healing and antioxidant powers of vitamin C and providing collagen to your skin, reports Hair and Beauty Tips website. 

 Squeeze the juice of one lime/ half a lemon into a glass of lukewarm water. Drink it first thing upon awakening in the morning. 

 3. Brighter and smoother knee and elbow
Our knee and elbow tend to be darker and dryer than other body parts. Cut a lime into two, then rub each halves to your knees.  You can do it anytime, before taking a shower or even if you are watching TV, but do not forget to rinse it if you do not want a dry skin.  

 4. For smooth and silky hair
You can use the lime skin.  Cut the lime into half, rub it to your hair before you take a bath.  You can do it an hour before bath.  It will leave your hair smooth and silky. 

 Apparently it helps with dandruff too. Tried and tested, it works!

 5. Brighter armpit?
you can use it to brighten your armpit.  Cut the lime into halves (it is understood), rub the lime unto your pit (rub it gently so it won't hurt your skin). Leave it for 30 minutes.  Do it before taking a shower or a bath. 

Try it and let me know if it works for you too :)

Goodbye For Now Dear Friend, We Shall Meet Again.

I don't really share about my personal life but today, I lost a dear friend. You know that kind of person that never really leave your life?  That friend that no matter what happens, will always gravitate back into your life especially when you are having a hard time? That kind of friend that says they miss you and then googled your name to see what picture of you that might come up? Yes, he is that kind of friend. And now he has left me for good. Our path first crossed many-many years ago, at a time when I was at my lowest.  We were from a different world. Mine was rose-tinted, safe, and secure. While his world was shadier and truly complicated.  Our personality was also of the polar opposite. I was the serious and disciplined type and he is free-spirited, just kinda breezing through life. Carefree, funny, and a soft-spoken guy. Sometimes things just clicked. 7 years ago, we dated briefly and in that short time, I learned so much about life outside of my bubble. Of all ...

Kelebihan Supplement Magnesium Untuk Kesihatan

Pada pendapat peribadi CPPS, magnesium ni adalah satu mineral/ supplement yang agak kurang diketahui kebaikkannya.  Magnesium ni tak mahal. Dalam banyak-banyak supplement , magnesium ni kiranya dalam kategori murahan je. Tapi tersangatlah banyak kelebihannya. Selain vitamin C, magnesium adalah antara supplement yang CPPS nampak dan rasa perubahannya. 1. Baik Untuk Merehatkan Otot Kadang-kadang, weols ni perlu bertugas ketika sales atau event yang memerlukan weols berdiri for most of the 12 hours. Bukan sahaja berdiri, malah weols juga harus kesana kemari berpura-pura rajin  melayani pelanggan. Malam tu sampai ke esoknya, weols memang akan sakit satu badan. So senior-senior rekomen, sebelum tidur malam tu, telan 1-2 biji magnesium. Ajaib sekali, besoknya badan tak sakit malah segar bugar!  Kebiasaanya ramai yang akan MC selepas event macam ni, EXCEPT ME. because me is stwong  2.

Sikit Lagi Mau Jadi Hulk

I always consider myself to be a mild-mannered person. Sometimes people, especially those who doesn't really know me that well said they never saw me get angry. They described me as someone cool and calm. Most of the time, i don't get angry that easy but i'm human okay, i do get angry. When i'm annoyed, angry or plain moody, only those close to me knew, especially my dear friend, Anne  I don't have to say a word, she only need to look at my face. I used to think that i have a high patience-threshold but lately, i think something shifted and lowers the threshold. Last week i find myself super irritable, angry and snapped at those who annoys me. I don't know why of all the days, those friends all choose the same day to test my patience. I'm sorry i raised my voice at you guys :p Maybe i should do yoga or something to calm myself down . Or attend anger management courses. Or something like that... Ya, i look like that when i'm angry. All o...
