H20 plus Face Oasis Hydrating Treatment Product Review

Swathy · January 27, 2016 · 2 Comments

H20 plus Face Oasis reminds me of the crystal clear waters of the Kilim Geoforest Park in Langkawi. The marine smell and the appealing aquamarine blue of the product with its watery texture serves up to its claims. I had spotted this product for the first time on My Women Stuff and was obsessed with getting it.

H20 plus is easily available in India and you can get it at any counter in Shopper’s Stop so let that not deter you if you are satisfied with the review. Why did I get this?

For a very long time, I have been looking around for a light and hydrating moisturiser. Ever since I have come to recognize that most of the dry skin is because of dehydration, I have become even more particular about my products.

Now, that I am touching 30 in a few days, I have felt the difference in my skin as well. Whether it is due to the dryness of winters or hormonal changes inside my body, I want to do everything right for my skin. And, hydration is on top of my list followed by moisturization.

Why is an RO water purifier not good enough?

And, why I suggest you to get PureIt Ultima RO + UV with Oxytube Water Purifier instead?

When we had shifted to a new house last year, one of the major concerns was clean drinking water. We were counting the cash because we had already spent so much on the expensive furniture and our health took a backseat!

We actually calculated if a water purifier was really worth the money. I know it sounds crazy, especially when one is comparing good health and expense. We should have probably compared the hospital bills. When we were considering out water purifier options, I had never thought ro water purifiers in India worth the money. There is almost a 10:1 ratio of water wastage and none of the houses have water recycling mechanisms.

Just for the record, we are still subsisting on the dubious mineral water bottles delivered once or twice a week by the shopkeeper next to my house. Do not make the same mistake! There are so many water-borne diseases alone like cholera, typhoid, diarrhoea, Hepatitis B and E, the list goes on.

But, now we are planning to begin a family. And, guess what I found out? Drinking purified water is extremely important for a pregnant lady, not only for herself but also for the baby.

Why You are Not able to Get Rid of Tea or Coffee Addiction?

Swathy · January 18, 2016 · 5 Comments

Twenty days into the New Year and my goals have all disappeared into thin air. This year I had made a decision of sticking to publishing on all days of the week. And, I have already defaulted twice. Another goal was to take care of my health and be active. A big problem in this area is my caffeine addiction.

I have become a huge addict of tea specifically in the last one and half year. I have to have a cup of tea twice a day or may be once more though my coffee addiction is way under control. I like savouring my beverages and, just like the Japanese, my tea time is very sacred for me. It is a ritual rather than a habit. A ritual which I have to leave on grounds of weight loss as well.

So, How to get rid of the Tea or Coffee addiction?

You Have Skipped the Caffeine Altogether

But, since it has become an addiction, I want to get rid of it this year. So, I have stopped taking coffee and tea altogether. And, now, I am facing the caffeine withdrawal symptoms.

If you are an mid-morning or an afternoon junkie, cutting down tea or coffee at that hour is very difficult and you will revert back to the habit. Do not start cutting back on those cups initially.
