9 Skin Emergencies and how to fight them up

Emerging Pimple
To stop redness and swelling in an emergency situation (job interview, reunion, wedding), ask your doctor for a cortisone injection. It calms down a pimple almost instantly. If you can’t get to your dermatologist, you can reduce redness and swelling by dabbing on a drop of drugstore cortisone cream hemorrhoid cream, or eye drops.

overnight treatment
Rub ice on an emerging pimple for 30 to 40 seconds. Apply clove oil and leave it on until it dries completely.

tea tree oil
Massage a touch of tee tree oil around the area of the pimple to anesthetize it and encourage healing. Use a nonliquid concealer to match your foundation. Dab a little on the blemish, wait a couple of seconds, then blend lightly with a fingertip. Dust with loose powder.

Acne Rash
Take yellow eye shadow and mix it with your concealer. Apply it to the area and allow to dry. Then cover with your regular foundation. Even it out by gently blotting your face with a separated tissue.

Puffy Eyes
Take some cold spoons and place them under the eye area. Simply run them under cold water for a few seconds, or even better, keep them in the freezer so they’ll be ready when it’s the “morning after” or when you just didn’t get enough sleep.

Body Chafing
If there’s no medicated powder around, use a little cornstarch. It contains fabulous absorbing powers, and you may find it even more effective.

Chapped Lips
Rub on a little petroleum jelly, then use a toothbrush to brush your lips in little circular motions.The toothbrush will exfoliate the dead skin while the petroleum jelly will provide a base so your lipstick glides on.

Cold Sore
There are medications for cold sores and fever blisters. If you don’t have any on hand, take an aspirin and apply it, slightly dampened, to the sore. Hold it there for at least three minutes. Keep the sore and its surrounding area clean and dry to fight bacteria.
Eat a bland diet, avoiding chocolate, nuts, or gelatinbased products. These foods may irritate the sore and cause further infection.

Excess Self-Tanner
Soak in a warm bath for about 20 minutes using baking soda as body scrub.

Bad Sunburn
Take an aspirin to reduce the inflammation. Bathe in a tub of vinegar and warmwater (use about a pint of vinegar).
Moisturize the skin with yogurt or nonfat milk.

Fragrance Overload
Swab the skin with an alcohol-soaked cotton pad. Then smooth on unscented lotion to remoisturize and help diffuse the fragrance even further.

How to get a Natural looking Beauty?

Natural beauty is naturally beautiful looks wearing very little make up or no make up at all. Natural beauty can be achieved by having beautiful hair, beautiful skin, beautiful body and healthy weight.

The first thing for naturally beautiful skin is even skin tone. This can be achieved by shea butter, tea tree oil, rosemary oil and intake of lots of fruits and vegetables.

For beautiful hair one can dye it but evenly as highlights do not look natural.

Brushing teeth twice a day help in keeping the teeth clean. Flossing the teeth prevents bad breath and plaque formation.

To have natural beauty make up is not required. Occasionally use of moisturizer, chapstick, and concealer is enough. Heavy make up should not be done for natural beauty. Make up if at al done then it should be very light. If blush and bronzing powder is used then it should be little, mascara should be very light and the lip gloss should be of natural color. As far as possible make up should not be used. Eyebrows and eye lashes should not be extended using extensions or eye liners. But they should be trimmed and shaped regularly.

Hair styles should be simple. It can be ponytail, straight cut, moderate curls or any other style which will go well with the ethnic background.

The cloths to be worn should be very simple, no patterns. The cloths should be of proper fit.

Nails should be clean and properly trimmed. If at al nail polish has to be used then it should be subdued tones with low or medium gloss.

The jewellary to be worn should be natural looking like sea shells, leather, wood beads or semi precious stones. Accessories made up of plastic and acrylic pieces do not go well for natural looks.

While doing make up one should take into consideration the season and the skin tone accordingly.

Smiling a lot and being confident is very good and it does not cost anything but is expressive.

For choice of colors and shades for cloths and make up and accessories a person having knowledge of all these things should be consulted.

For natural beauty the most important thing is cleanliness and hygiene. Daily bath, face wash and hair wash with use of deodorant or perfume. Natural looks can be achieved by cleanliness, hygiene and good health. For having good health regular physical work out and well balanced diet are most important things. These things give beautiful body and as well as beautiful mind.
