Do you get boils on your nose bridge or around in summers? {Your Opinion}

Swathy · April 14, 2013 · 1 Comment

This question is primarily for people who wear glasses. Do the nose pads irritate your skin?
Come summers and this problem gets aggravated for me. The sweat and the heat and constant pressure on the bridge of the nose due to the nose pads creates little bubbles or boils on the skin. And, it constantly hurts me.
The only relief I get is by removing the specs but since I do not use contacts it is definitely difficult. If I sit in air conditioning or in a cool place, it provides little relief. But, if the area has been already inflamed, it hardy helps!! The only remedy to this problem is to remove the glasses and use ice on the boils! And, applying aloevera also helps.
Have you ever faced such problem? What do you do to prevent skin from getting inflamed by friction?

How do you perceive people with fairness products in their hands? {Your Opinion}

Swathy · April 11, 2013 · 9 Comments

Hey Everyone! Welcome to a brand new week 🙂 And, I am trying to stay a little regular this week. So, lets raise a toast for that!
Anyways, I ran out of my face wash and since I was too lazy to go to the supermarket, I just went to the general store downstairs in the complex and bought the one face wash they had!
And, guess what, it was Pond’s White Beauty Facial Foam. I bought it because it has no SLS. But, I did not take any poly bag to carry the items being eco-conscious 🙂

Now, when I was walking back, it struck me suddenly that what would people think of me seeing the White Beauty face wash in my hands. Not that I am too bothered about what others think but it sounded interesting to read about how you perceive such people!
I think its a very natural thing that if we find fairness products in someone’s hands, we automatically check out their complexion and judge whether they really need those products or not! And, if they are even a bit darker, we do think they are interested in getting fair!
But, what would you think about a lady or girl carrying such products? Do you judge them? Or, try to check out their complexion and whether they really need fairness products? Or, do you just ignore it thinking it must have been the only product available in the shop they had to pick up!
What do you say?

My Hair Diary – March 2013

Swathy · April 9, 2013 · 11 Comments

getting snaps of my hair is damn difficult on the new cam!

So, another month gone! And, this month I was pretty diligent about my hair 🙂 So, yay to that! But, unfortunately I am not as diligent on the posts so you would be missing the posts on Tuesday and Thursdays and weekends. And, I have yet to reply to comments!

What I did?
Moving on, I have been using Organic Surge. Coming up soon with the review. But, I am loving it for now. Its the only SLS-free shampoo I have used till now which actually cleansed the entire oil from the hair and made the hair pretty soft.
Next come the DIY’s I did this month. Well, I did get inspired by my friend and tried to take more care of the hair. I got musk root and used it with yogurt as much as possible. And, I used parachute advansed hot oil almost every time I washed the hair. But, not every time! 

yeah, that’s my hair just after washing without any serum or conditioner!

And, the next thing I followed this month was using Grapeseed oil with Rosemary EO on scalp and Pomegranate oil on the hair as an after-wash hair serum. But, one thing I had neglected was conditioner. I hardly used conditioner. 
One thing I noticed about my hair was that I was losing more of my hair if I did not wash it within two days and then it was getting itchy and very dirty. Well, this is what even my colleague complained. She told me that if even a little of sweat gets accumulated on her scalp, she starts losing hair and gets really itchy. And, if she is washing her hair daily, its behaving nicely! Yeah, the question is should we wash our hair daily? Let’s see!!
