LADIES – PLEASE GIVE YOUR SUPPORT TO OUR LIFESTYLISTA FRIEND [NAME DELETED]. WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS? WHAT HELP CAN YOU GIVE FROM YOUR OWN LIFE EXPERIENCE?
Dear [NAME DELETED] I am here for you. Don’t let skin ailments cause you to let go of your dreams. And let them see you acne and all… There’s no need to be ashamed and if a man is scared off by a few pimples then perhaps he might not be the guy afterall!
If you are not allergic to aspirin, perhaps give this a try? I wrote this article for the face but try this on your back…
It all depends on what kind of acne you have (hormonal or bacterial) too.
Keep us posted – let us know how it all goes for you.

GOT ACNE? Try this Homemade DIY aspirin mask…

Ingredients:
– 5 – 8 regular aspirins (preferably without the ‘safety’ or ‘enteric’ coating)
– Bottled water (not tap)
– 1 tablespoon of honey
If you’re allergic to aspirin – don’t use this mask!!!

Putting it together:
First, wash your face so it’s clean (don’t add moisturizer yet).
Then…
1) Get a bowl.
2) Put 5 aspirins in.
3) Add a TINY amount of room temperature bottled water, just a few drops.
4) Use a spoon to mash the aspirin, dissolve it in the water. You want the mixture to get to a paste consistency. If it’s too thick, add a bit of water. If it’s too watery, add another aspirin.
Don’t use more than 8 regular aspirins (aspirin is a drug – it may get absorbed into your bloodstream so don’t use more in your mask than you are allowed to take in a 24 hour period!!! You don’t want to overdose… If you feel any side effects at all when you use this mask stop using it immediately).
5) Add your lovely tablespoon of honey!
6) Mix it all in and apply directly to your CLEAN face.
7) Wash the mask off after it dries (10 – 15 mins) – keep your eyes and mouth shut while you do this – you don’t want aspirin getting in there!
Dry your face, tone your skin (alcohol free toner!) and apply your moisturizer.
9) Marvel at your gorgeous, soft, soothed skin!!! Aaaah
***BLISS***

HOW THIS MASK WORKS:

TO REDUCE REDNESS & INFLAMMATION: The aspirin is an anti-inflammatory!

TO DRY OUT THE PIMPLES: Aspirin contains acetylsalicylic acid. This is very similar to salicylic acid, the active ingredient in lots of expensive anti-acne products.

ANTIBACTERIAL: The honey is a natural antibacterial so it’ll reduce breakouts if your acne is caused by bacteria (rather than hormones). Honey is also a humectant – it helps the skin retain moisture.

CAREFUL:
Depending on how sensitive your skin is… you can use this mask once a week (maybe twice).
Don’t scrub too hard with your aspirin mix because it can act as an exfoliating scrub and you don’t want to scrub your delicate pimples!
Your aspirin face mask can make your skin more sun-sensitive so after you use it, you might want to wear sunscreen.
This mask can cause skin irritation, dryness and flaking BUT the honey helps counteract this.
And, once again, if you’re allergic to aspirin – don’t use this mask!!!

love,

4 QUICK, DELICIOUSLY DISGUSTING WAYS TO GET RID OF BLACKHEADS…

May 31, 2013 By TheLifestylista

BLACKHEADS ON YOUR NOSE..? ARE YOU LOSING THE BATTLE?
“WHY DO I HAVE BLACKHEADS???” You’ve got dirt and dead skin cells clogging your pores… that’s why! And when you have blackheads, acne is often not far behind…. 🙁

Blackheads on nose

4 QUICK WAYS TO GET RID OF BLACKHEADS:

First clean your face then try one of these…

1) STEAM METHOD
BOWL:
– Fill a bowl with hot water (be careful!)
– Put your face over the bowl
– Put a big towel over your head and let the steam do the work… opening up the pores
HOT TOWEL:
– Rest a hot towel (not too hot it burns you!) on your face for 5 – 10 mins
– The pores open

Once the pores are open, take 2 clean cotton balls (preferably hypo allergenic) and use them to ‘ease out’ the naughty blackheads out of your skin. Aaaaaaah. How disgusting and rewarding 🙂

Remember… Don’t squeeze with your fingers… Or else you could scar your face!

2) THE LIME METHOD
– Cut a lime in half.
– Pour some honey onto the lime (preferably dark and it’d be amazing if it were raw and organic too)
– rub the honey’d half lime all over your clean face.. Let the honey & lime mixture stay on your face for 3 – 5 mins.
– Rinse off your face
This takes longer to work – over several weeks of repeating this process!

3) EGG WHITE METHOD
– Separate the egg white from the yolk.
– Use a fork or whisk to beat the the egg whites
– Use your hands to put the beaten egg whites all over your face
– Put clean tissue on your nose (or wherever else you have blackheads) and leave for 45 minutes (or until totally dry)
– Once the tissue is dry, gently remove (and take a look at the gross blackheads now on the tissues heheheh 🙂
– Rinse off your face
I think this method is BOSS!

4) ASPIRIN MASK
See my article on how to make an aspirin mask… (and please pay attention to all my cautions about this one too!!!)

This is a job well done! Blackheads are no joke and can sooooo lead to acne… You go girl, it’s worth taking a little time to take care of yourself. I am v. proud of you.
Keep your questions coming.
love
