Glycolic Acid for Acne Scar Removal: The Awful Truth Revealed!

Acne scars are something you work off push to get rid of those stubborn scars but would refuse to go! I exaggerate a little, but the fact remains that acne blemishes one of the things that it is very difficult to get rid of! Sure, there are dozens of treatments to help you hide your scar for a temporary period, and they are not cheap, but the scars remain hidden only for a short time and come back if you continue treatment at regular intervals.One thing that comes to mind is the chemical peel procedure for removing acne spots.  

Many people opt for this acne scar removal option, because it is cheap and although the results are temporary, the treatment is more or less painless. Most people can not afford this treatment, as opposed to laser surgery, which costs thousands! Glycolic acid is one of the components that are commonly used during the chemical peeling. In this article I will talk only about the acid!

You may or may not know it, but glycolic acid can easily help you get rid of acne pimples, if the scars are superficial and not very deep. This is how it works: it breaks through the scar tissue, and then she peels. This in turn are younger and healthier skin tissue under the scar tissue a chance to grow, and when they younger skin tissue take the place of the older scarry tissue, you gain that youthful, healthy, supple skin that you once had! This is one of the reasons why this acid is an active element in many of today's anti-aging and skin care products!Different products contain varying amounts of glycolic acid in the range of 5% to 45%.  

Note that if you have never used this acid in the past, then you can burn experience the first few times you use it, so it is advisable to choose an acne product with a very low concentration of this acid, which you can then ante as your skin accustomed to the treatment. If your skin is extremely sensitive then it could also stand with the lowest concentrations of glycolic acid, in which case you should stop their use immediately otherwise your acne blackheads would be even worse!Glycolic acid is undoubtedly good for the treatment of superficial acne blemishes, and so is salicylic acid, this acid is not only for acne whiteheads: You can get rid of any kind of superficial scars with his help: heck, you can even hide their wrinkles with its regular use! However, if your scars are very deep and you want a permanent solution, then this is not for you, but you should try the laser therapy treatment!

Improve Skin Complexion in 30 days at Home

A proper skin care regime is needed to achieve bright healthy complexion and prevent it from pollution, dirt and other skin enemies. Good moisturizers with SPF (Sun protection factor) would help us in developing and preventing the complexion and hence moisturizing is compulsory for all skin types. Oily skin needs moisturizers too. Some people needs a quick skin fix before a party, or a wedding to look bright and beautiful. It's not necessary to go for costly skin care products and cosmetics to achieve brighter skin. We can even brighten our skin with natural things available in our kitchen to enhance the skin color and look beautiful. In this post, I am going to give you step by step instructions to improve your complexion to an extent within 30 days. Follow the below skin care regime and become a skin beauty! :)

     I am not going to give you loads to work this time. A simple natural exfoliating fairness facial scrub and a nourishing fairness mask is going to be your routine for these 30 days. The exfoliating scrub should be followed thrice a week for normal and oily skins and if your skin is dry, you are going to do it once twice because it might strip of the moisture from your skin leaving it more drier. Hey wait! Don't escape dry skin girls and guys! :D Only the exfoliating scrub is twice, but you surely need to follow the nourishing mask everyday or in alternate days. This is to nourish your skin and remove the dullness which is caused by dryness.

With the above procedures I would also mention some skin care and diet tips to follow, to get better results on your skin. First, I'll give the recipes of the exfoliating scrub and nourishing face mask.

Exfoliating Fairness Facial Scrub

Ingredients

• Orange Peel Powder - Two teaspoons
• Rose water - Required amount
• Dry skinned people keep in mind : Rose water is for oily skinned girls and guys, if you have normal to dry or extremely dry skin, I suggest you to add raw creamy milk instead of rose water. Additionally, you can also add milk cream and honey to this scrub (to prevent a stretchy feel and dryness)

How to Use

• Wash your face with a good face wash or soap depending on your skin type.
• Mix the orange peel powder with rose water (Oily skins), or milk (As I said for dry skins) and blend well to make a paste. The paste wouldn't be fine and it can't act as a exfoliate if it is fine, so don't worry.
• Apply this paste on the surface of your face and neck evenly. Leave on for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Let the ingredients work well on your skin to lighten it, just relax. You can place 2 cucumber slices or cold water dipped cotton pads above your eyes for a refreshment in this mean time.
• Now comes the important step, cleanse your hands and make your face wet by dipping your fingers in water and tapping. Now gently scrub your face and neck with an upward circular motion for about 10 minutes with your finger tips.
• After scrubbing, wash off with cold and clean water. Pat dry and moisturize, a heavy creamy moisturizer for dry skins and a light one for oily skins.

Results and Benefits

Orange has lots of antioxidants and citrus properties which are very essential for one's skin. It not only naturally bleaches your skin, it also acts as a wrinkle remover, spots and tan remover and skin lightener. So, following this above scrub regularly bleaches your skin in a natural way, removing dead cells, tan, giving a natural radiant glow which even skin lightening serums cannot give. Orange peel powder with rose water scrub removes excess oil while the same peel powder with the milk and honey mixture prevents skin from drying. So, the benefits and glow is same from the both scrubs, just the ingredients differs a bit as per your skin type. This scrub is recommend for brides also as it would make them look glowing and beautiful in their wedding day :) I recommend every girl or guy who craves for bright complexion to follow this scrub and get faster results.

Nourishing Fairness Mask

Ingredients

• Almonds - 5
• Oatmeal - 2 teaspoons
• Honey - 1 teaspoon
• Milk cream - required
• Rose water - required
• Oily skinned people keep in mind: This mask contains moisturizing ingredients which suits only dry skins well, so it is better to avoid milk cream and use lime juice instead to prevent excess oil secretion.

How to Use

• Soak almonds overnight in milk or water. Peel them and paste them in the morning.
• Mix this almond paste with oatmeal, honey, milk cream and rose water and blend well to form a smooth creamy face mask.
• Cleanse your face and apply this pack covering face and neck, avoiding the areas around eyes.
• Allow the mask to dry for 15 to 20 minutes and wash off with plenty of clean water. Moisturize!

Results and Benefits

Almonds makes skin smooth, soft and radiant while the other ingredients moisturizes the skin and provide required nourishment to the skin. Honey is also a natural skin lightener. This pack effectively cures acne spots, blemishes, tan and clogged pores. You can use this mask on the very same day when the previously mentioned scrub is performed, to nourish and calm down the skin and to retain it's natural oils. Dry skinned people are suggested to follow this mask once in two days or even everyday to achieve good results in these 30 days of skin regime :) Oily guys and girls, twice a week is enough. :)

Other tips: Drink plenty of water and use a high SPF sunscreen in these 30 days to prevent the fairness you gained or else the results will be lost. A good 8 hours sleep maintaining your skin clean these days is also very important for good results.

Hope you liked the skin regime package. Drop your comments for doubts :D I am here to help!

Top Five Home Remedies for Fast Hair Growth

Top Five Home Remedies for Fast Hair Growth (My Mom's Own Hair Secrets)

Hello Everyone!
Today, I have come up with a hair care post for all of you who are longing to grow your hair long and strong. I had a knee length hair when I was 12 but eventually, I lost interest in maintaining my long hair and had cuts many times. My long hair at childhood not only gifted me lots of compliments from neighbors, friends and family but it also had made me get punishments in my school for being late everyday :P On my fourteens and fifteens I hardly bothered about my hair.
           Even last year, I had not wanted a long hair at all. I maintained that waist length hair (It is not considered long in my family :( sob sob!) till last year and now finally, I am 17 and a huge love on LONG HAIR has been developed inside my heart! I have no clue why I am loving to have a long hair. But I am sure I dream about long hair many times a day. I have even worried that why I had cut my hair so many times in these hairs :( and if encase I hadn't done that, I would have been blessed with Rapunzel hair now. Alright! Past is past; so hereafter, I am not getting a hair cut at all, at least for the next four eyes. (Don't include the split ends trims once in 12 weeks!) I am going to jump into the hair growth challenge and maintain my hair like anything to achieve that knee long hair back (Greedy me!). I am not sure whether I will win the challenge or not but I am sure I will take necessary steps for that. Okay without further blabbering, let us move on to the post :P I don't wanna bore you all with my hair story.

My Mommy's Long Hair!

This is my mom's hair :D She is 55 now! and never died her hair or went to salon even once in these 55 years. She doesn't know what a hair mask or what a hair conditioner is! She swears by plain coconut oil and Shikakai. She had even longer and thicker hair before long years and this post is ofcourse compiled with her secrets!. :)

My Mom's Beautiful Hair! :)

Now, let me share 5 amazing tips & remedies to grow your hair longer in a shorter time. No! We cannot fasten the hair growth but we can prevent split ends, breakage, hair fall and that's all. Healthy hair grows longer without any obstacles. Don't you agree? 


        'Your hair grows anytime at the same rate of speed but the trick is how you care for it and prevent it'  This is my mom's hair growth theory :D

1.Maintain Your Hair Clean

Maintaining your hair clean everyday is very essential when it comes to faster hair growth. Unclean hair and scalp leads to allergies, dandruff and such kinda hair problems thus resulting in heavy hair loss. So even though when you hair grows at a good speed, you are losing lots of hair strands at a better speed. Can you get what I am saying?

• Home Remedy for Faster Hair Growth 1: Shikakai mixed with curd acts as a great natural hair cleanser to clean hair and scalp. This shikakai home remedy for hair cleansing better than many other shampoos available in today's market loaded with SLS and parabens.

2. Moisturize Scalp and Hair Strands

My mom has a hip length hair now at the age of 55 and guess what? She does not have a single gray hair! I have always been jealous of my mom's hair beauty and her secret is 'Moisturizing hair' regularly. Yes! She oils her hair thrice every week to prevent scalp dryness and split ends. I personally don't like that oily feel on my scalp and hence I skip oiling at day time and go for a overnight oiling routine. Try using oils like coconut oil, olive oil and castor oil on your hair regularly; and you will definitely see the difference in weeks.

• Home Remedy for Faster Hair Growth 2:  Mix coconut oil and olive oil together (Equal parts) Take a teaspoon of dried curry leaves powder and dried fenugreek powder each and put them into the oil mixture. Shake well and store it in dry place for one week. Now filter this oil and use it as your regular hair oil! See the magic withing 3 months of usage. My mom swears by this hair oil recipe for faster hair growth!

3. Wear Loose Braids

Tight braids and pony tails may damage your hair in long run. Avoid wearing tight hair bands and clips on your hair to prevent unwanted hair breakage and weakening of hair. Once a beautician told me, wearing tight pony tails often may result in front balding of hair :O Be aware girls! And wearing loose braids helps in better air circulation on your scalp, thus resulting in less sweat - less allergies and less hair fall. Where there is less hair fall, it is equal to fast hair growth automatically :) If you want long and strong hair, first know to save your hair! That is the best trick ever.

• Home Remedy for Faster Hair Growth 3: Fill up a spray bottle with 100 ml of rose water and pour in two teaspoons of almond oil. Shake well and refrigerate. Use this hair spray after you rinse your hair to make your hair smooth, manageable and frizz free instantly. Using this hair spray help you make braids easily without any tangles! This also improves the texture and health of your hair, resulting in longer and stronger hair faster without any dry hair/combing breakage.

4. Get Good Sleep & Water

This might be one of the most heard tips, but still it is one of the best tips too. Get a proper good night sleep of 8 hours and drink atleast 10 glasses of water a day. This would regularize your metabolic activities and prevents hair loss due to stress and dehydration. Going to hair salons, using masks and other topical treatments alone won't work; if you want longer hair, you want to maintain your health  :) So don't forget this sleep and water trick anytime. Drinking tender coconut every morning helps too. This controls hair fall due to heat and provides mineral salts for your hair health.

• Home Remedy for Faster Hair Growth 4: Excessive body heat causes bad damage to the hair though we follow all the other hair care regimes the right way. To control this, crush some fresh tulsi leaves and put them into your drinking water everyday. Tulsi cools down the body, relieves stress and vanishes hair fall caused due to body heat. Thus your hair grows long without any over heat obstacle!

5. Hair Growth Supplements

Are you losing much hair everyday? Is your hair not growing long anymore? You might be suffering from some nutrition deficiency. Consult your physician and discuss with him/her about the intake of hair care supplements. They might prescribe you biotin, iron or zinc etc depending on your deficiency problem. I am taking 5mg biotin everyday at present and it is giving me good results. It has reduced my hair fall to 90% and my hair is getting down to my waist :) Keep in mind; do NOT take any supplement without consulting your doctor.

• Home Remedy for Faster Hair Growth 5: My mom tells me often that eating egg whites, whole nuts, spinach and cheese everyday increases the hair growth speed :) Soya bean helps too! Why don't you try them?
