Well, some of you asked me about how I do my make up… Let me start with those few words. The skin of my face stopped being soft and clear when I turned 12, like most people of this world. I have a combination skin that tends to be really oily some days. My acne soften itself, but my skin still looks quite bad. I use to put on my skin shitty products “against acne” that were itchy, drying, or that just gave me much more redness and pimples. I used those for years, nothing ever works and the day I used that one product that litteraly ruins my skin, I thrown all of them out.
I’ve understand that “no pain, no gain" was the stupidest thing ever (in that case). Be gentle with your skin, even if you hate it.
So, here are the things I’ve tried for a while and that make me confident enough to go out without make up, whenever I want.
In the first picture, the pills that I’ve took everyday for 2 months, the result is light but there, my skin quality has been improved, it’s more even, with less breakouts. It also affect my health, I’m less moody, I got much more energy.
1. Vitamin A & D 3 10,000 IU/400IU by Solgar.
-Keeps the skin moisturized, young, soft and plumpy, boosts the immune system and so prevents infection.
2. Organic Spirulina, 500mg/tab. by Healthy Origins
-High in protein and nutrients. Wards off radicals, eliminates toxins, increases skin metabolism to enable faster skin cell turnover and prevents acne breakouts. (+ may help in the treatment of allergic rhinitis, which I have)
3. Skin, Nails & Hair by Solgar, containing :
-MSM (Methyl Sulfonyte Methane), it contains sulfur that speed up the scarring over and the creation of keratin (for your nails and hair sake). Helps eliminating toxins. It’s also a soft anti-allergic.
-Silicon (from red algae), can stabilize minerals that aid in skin moisturisation. Rich in calcium, magnesium, potassium, copper, iodine, selenium and zinc*. Helps the creation of collagen (a protein that helps in the growth of cells and blood vessels and gives skin strength and firmness). It’s also full of folic acid that sooths sensitive skins, and in the anti-inflammatory omega 3 & 6.
-L-Proline & L-Lysine also improve the production of collagen and speeds up scarring up.
-Vitamin C, a must for the production and preservation of collagen, and helps the skin to repair itself, may also prevents the damage of sun exposure.
* Zinc can cause nausea if your stomach is empty, you better take those pills while eating.
In the second one, what I use to wash my face, or to do my masks.
4. Matcha tea, by Florisens, anti-inflamatory and loaded with antioxydants.
5. Manuka honey by Terre Exotique, you probably know the Melaleuca alternifolia’s (Tea Tree) antibacterial and antiseptic effects, Manuka (Leptospermum Scoparium) is a shrub of the same family (Myrtaceae). Due to hydrogen peroxide, every honey is antiseptic/biotic/fungal, but the Manuka one is known to be ten time more efficient.
6. Whole rice flour, by Celnat, I’ve tried it once to make a mask less liquid and it happened to be the finest and the best exfoliate I ever tried.
7. PInk clay, by Argiletz, absorb sebum excess, remineralize the skin and reveal its radiance.
8. Turmeric, by Simply Organic, for a glowing skin.
9. Yep. That’s a lemon. It diminish scars, heals acne and blackheads, exfoliate, lighten up and brighten the skin.
- I mix all those stuffs randomly, to obtain the right consistancy, and let it dry 10 to 30 minutes, honey is the base of every masks and I usually use clay alone and not over 10 minutes. Don’t put to much lemon juice, you’ll just gonna burn your skin.
10. African Black Soap by Nubian Heritage, an African black soap base enriched with coconut oil, shea butter, oat and aloe vera for soothing and moisturization, in plantain peel, full of salicylic acid that fight blackheads, in pine tar (yes, tar), antiseptical.. etc ! It smells really sweet. My oily skin turned (almost) perfect in two weeks, but I guess it could be too drying for normal and dry skin.
And then, the toners and creams.
11. Aloe vera by The Only Real Aloe Vera, moisturize, tone and sooth.
12. Witch-Hazel floral water by Florame, astringent and purifing, smell a bit like black tea.
13. Anti-blemish mattifying fluid on summer / Re-balancing soothing confort cream during the cold time by Lierac Prescription. The most awesome creams I’ve tried, the fluid mattify for hours and the cream is a blessing in winter, none of them clog the pores. The best thing to do during mid-season is to wear the fluid on the morning and to put the cream right before bed time.
And… TADAAA !
n.b. : English is not my mother tongue. I’ll translate it in french if some of you want me to do so. Thanks for your attention.

Backs Overcome Acne with Natural Lemon Scrub
Acne is not only hit the face, but the body did not escape acne affected. For acne on the back area, you can 'mix' natural scrub using lemon.
As reported Boldsky, to make your own natural scrub with lemon at home, you need two lime or lemon and half a cup of powdered sugar.
How to make first squeeze of lemon juice and make sure to get rid of all the seeds. Then add the powdered sugar and mix with the lemon juice.
Use this scrub before shower. Rub into the entire back with a gentle circular motion. You can do this every day before bathing, because this scrub is very gentle to use.
Sugar scrub can remove dead skin cells gently. While lemon can reduce the production of oil in the back. Make sure you do not add any oil because it will clog the pores.

There is a new buzz in the cosmetic marketplace. It’s mineral makeup! So what is it and how is it different? Mineral makeup is just as the name suggests made from minerals. These are naturally occurring minerals and inorganic pigments from the earth (Metal ores and iron oxides) that are very finely crushed and milled. They contain no oils, no preservatives, no fragrance, no talc and are safe for even very sensitive skins.
In fact, they are so safe that a lot of Plastic Surgeons and Dermatologists are recommending them to their patients. Not only is Mineral makeup not harmful for the skin, it is actually good for it. The ingredients are so finely milled that they will not clog your pores and because it is made from inorganic minerals it will not gather moisture to feed bacteria therefore it is totally pure. It also acts as an anti-inflammatory agent, helping to calm and soothe irritated skin.
What are the ingredients in Mineral Makeup?
This is a naturally occurring white mineral that is a fantastic sunscreen. It is the second most highly reflective mineral. (the first is DIAMOND) Therefore it not only acts a physical sunscreen but also helps minimise the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
This is again a natural sunscreen giving you a broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection. But more than that it is also used for its wide range of colours. Maklon Kosmetik This mineral allows foundations to be different shades, and is also used in Eye shadows and Blushes.
This is a very opaque pigment again used for colouring cosmetics.
Used for it’s oil absorbing qualities.
Made from silica that is a combination of minerals but largely comprised of quartz. Dimethicone aids spreading, is transfer resistant and imparts a remarkable smoothness and creaminess to the overall product. It also improves coverage without adding heaviness. It is non-comedogenic and highly water repellent.
Is found in nature in a variety of colours and can be used to add shine and sparkle to cosmetics.
How does it differ from regular makeup?
Mineral Makeup is generally applied with a brush or sponge in a downward motion on a clean, moisturised skin. If you have very dry skin, the foundation at first can appear a little powdery but all you have to do is gently mist your face with water and all powderiness vanishes. For oily skins the foundation contains natural oil absorbing ingredients, therefore you will find the foundation nice and matte all through the day.
Regardless of your skin type, the foundation will give you a very natural, fresh appearance all day long. The makeup is also water resistant, meaning it will not run or smudge in humid weather or throughout your workout or if you get caught in the rain. All you have to do is pat the water or perspiration off your face, instead of rubbing it off.
Having said that, the makeup is not difficult to remove. Not containing any waxes or oils all you have to do is use your regular, favourite makeup remover. Over all, Mineral Makeup is worth buzzing about.
It is truly a major breakthrough in cosmetic skin care.

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring key molecule in our bodies. As we age, the production of hyaluronic acid decreases contributing to skin sagging, skin dehydration and volume loss.
Our fillers are injected into the skin using fine needles to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, folds and to create contour and structure. Effects of injectable hyaluronic acid are seen immediately, but allow 14 days for full results.
Filler lasts 9-24 months depending on the area injected and amount used.
When threads are inserted into treated areas, they anchor your skin tissue and create a graceful lift. PDO Thread lifts last up to 12 months.
The active ingredient in fat dissolving injections is deoxycholic acid – a naturally occurring molecule in the body that helps break down absorption of fat. When injected, it breaks down targeted fat and your body naturally clears it away.
Please note some patients may require multiple injections depending on area(s) treated and aesthetic goals. Final results are permanent!


Seriously, I’ve been using Vitamin C serum for just over 1 month and I am the happiest I’ve ever been with the state of my skin. Yes, at first I did not think that vitamin C serum was going to be the kind of thing that would actually help me, it sounded like some kind of hippie solution, that doubted the science or lack of science behind it. But the fact is that it is scientifically proven that this type of serum will moisturize, hydrate, brighten, smooth, and reduce wrinkles and discoloration, and even reduce scarring, returning the skin to a much healthier State, and I don’t think that there is way too overstate the extreme value that this type of impact can have on your life. Truly, this is one of the most effective products I’ve ever used, and it is very affordable, and it does all sorts of amazing things for me, in the immediate and long-term sense. I usually apply this you know once a day or anything like that, and I can always feel the positive impacts, as it moisturizes skin that I didn’t even realize was dry, until it was actually moisturize, and other such thing.

Acne is a chronic inflammatory skin condition of variable severity. Acne typically appears on your face, forehead, chest, upper back and shoulders. These areas of skin have the most hair follicles that are connected to the sebaceous glands that produce oily sebum. Acne causes one or more of the following:
- Whiteheads – bulging closed hair follicle pores clogged with bacteria, dead skin and sebum
- Blackheads – open hair follicle pores, clogged with bacteria, dead skin and sebum that turns black
- Papules – small red, tender bumps
- Pustules – pimples which are papules with pus at their tips that develop when blocked hair follicles become inflamed or infected with bacteria
- Nodules – large, solid, painful lumps beneath the surface of the skin
- Cystic lesions – painful, pus-filled lumps beneath the surface of the skin
Although acne is a benign condition, it can affect your health in several ways including your appearance, pain and discomfort, permanent scarring, depression, anxiety, and poor self-esteem.
Who gets it?
Acne affects 85% of all adolescents and about 12% of adult women. About 50 million people in the United States have acne at any one time. Risk factors for acne include:
- Age – People of all ages can get acne, but it's most common in teenagers.
- Hormonal changes – As they occur in teenagers, and in the menstrual cycle of girls and women.
- Family history – If both parents had acne, you're more likely to get it too.
- Contact with greasy or oily substances – Acne may develop where your skin comes into contact with oily lotions and creams or with grease in a work area, such as a kitchen with fry vats.
- Friction or pressure on your skin– Contact with items such as telephones, cellphones, helmets, tight collars and backpacks.
What causes acne?
Four main factors cause acne:
- Excess sebum production
- Hair follicles clogged by sebum and dead skin cells
- Bacteria in sebaceous glands (the Proprionibacterium acnes bacterium)
- Activity of androgens, such as testosterone, a type of hormone found in both men and women that increases in adolescence and stimulates sebum production,
These factors can trigger or aggravate acne:
- Hormones – Hormonal changes related to menstruation, pregnancy and the use of oral contraceptives can affect sebum production.
- Certain medications – Examples include drugs containing corticosteroids, testosterone or lithium.
- Diet – Studies indicate that skim milk and carbohydrate-rich foods — such as bread, bagels and chips — and perhaps chocolate may worsen acne, but the evidence is weak and further study of diet is needed.
- Stress – Stress can make acne worse.
How to prevent acne
You can try to avoid or control mild acne with nonprescription products, good basic skin care and other self-care techniques:
- Wash problem areas with a gentle cleanser – Gently wash your face twice a day with a mild soap and warm water. If you tend to develop acne around your hairline, shampoo your hair every day.
- Avoid certain products – Avoid products that may irritate the skin, such as facial scrubs, astringents and masks. Excessive washing and scrubbing also can irritate the skin.
- Avoid irritants – Avoid oily or greasy cosmetics, sunscreens, hairstyling products or acne concealers. Use products labeled water-based or noncomedogenic, which means they are less likely to cause acne.
- Protect your skin from the sun – For some people, the sun worsens acne. Regularly use a non-oily (noncomedogenic) moisturizer that includes a sunscreen. And if your doctor has prescribed a tetracycline antibiotic for acne it may cause photosensitivity and you may need to stay out of the sun as much as possible.
- Avoid friction or pressure on your skin – Protect your acne-prone skin from contact with items such as phones, helmets, tight collars or straps, and backpacks.
- Avoid touching or picking at the problem areas – Doing so can trigger more acne or lead to infection or scarring.
- Shower after strenuous activities – Oil and sweat on your skin can lead to breakouts.
Treatments you can undertake yourself
To treat mild to moderate acne or periodic breakouts, many over-the-counter (OTC) acne products are available without a doctor’s prescription. They include cleansing lotions, gels, foams and towelettes, leave-on products, and treatments or kits.
The Food and Drug Administration warns that some popular OTC acne products can cause a serious reaction. This type of reaction is quite rare, it is not the redness, irritation or itchiness that may occur where you've applied such products. Seek emergency medical help if after using a skin product if you experience difficulty breathing, faintness, throat tightness and swelling of the face, lips or tongue.
Active ingredients in acne products
OTC acne products work in different ways. Some work by killing the bacteria that cause acne inflammation. Others remove excess oil from the skin or speed up the growth of new skin cells and the removal of dead skin cells. Some acne products do a combination of these things.
Here are common active ingredients found in OTC acne products and how they work to treat acne.
- Start with Benzoyl peroxide – This ingredient kills the bacteria that cause acne, helps remove excess oil from the skin and removes dead skin cells, which can clog pores. OTC benzoyl peroxide products are available in strengths from 2.5 to 10 percent. Give it a few days before expecting to see results. Check product labels for the type and amount of its active ingredient. Stronger isn't always better with benzoyl peroxide. In some cases, a 2% or 2.5% product works as well as those with stronger concentrations — and with fewer side effects. Possible side effects include dry skin, scaling, redness, burning and stinging, especially if you have sensitive skin. Be careful when applying benzoyl peroxide, as it can bleach hair and clothing.
- Alpha hydroxy acids – Two types of alpha hydroxy acids that are used in nonprescription acne products are glycolic acid and lactic acid. Alpha hydroxy acids treat acne by helping to remove dead skin cells and reduce inflammation. Alpha hydroxy acids also stimulate the growth of new, smoother skin. This helps improve the appearance of acne scars and gives the impression of smaller pores.
These are found in over-the-counter acne treatments but are not well proven to be effective:
- Salicylic acid – This ingredient helps prevent pores from becoming plugged. OTC salicylic acid products are available in strengths from 0.5 to 5 percent. Possible side effects include mild stinging and skin irritation.
- Sulfur – Sulfur removes dead skin cells that clog pores and helps remove excess oil. It's often combined with other ingredients, such as salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide or resorcinol. Products containing sulfur may cause dry skin. And some products have an unpleasant odor.
Of the various topical agents, the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) considers that there is little or no evidence that these products marketed by prescription or over the counter are effective as a therapy for acne: azelaic acid, dapsone, salicylic acid, sulfur, nicotinamide, resorcinol, sodium sulfacetamide, aluminum chloride, and zinc.
Choosing an effective acne product
Acne products are just one part of a good skin care routine. When using acne products:
- Wash problem areas twice daily – Use a gentle non-soap cleanser and don't overdo it. Excessive washing and scrubbing can worsen acne.
- Try cleansing cloths or towelettes – These are gentle alternatives to cleansers and washes. Cloths with an open weave are good for dry, sensitive skin. Cloths with a tighter weave are better at removing dead skin cells.
- Consider pore-clearing adhesive pads – These products (Biore Deep Cleansing Pore Strips, others) are intended to remove dirt, oil and plugs from pores. You apply the strip to wet skin, let it dry and then peel it off. Further study is needed to prove their use in treating and preventing acne. Don't use them more than once every three days.
- Don't use too much – Apply just enough acne product to cover the problem areas and apply it just after cleansing the skin. Some cloths and towelettes come with benzoyl peroxide and other active ingredients in them, so you don't need to apply more product with these active ingredients after cleansing.
- Use an oil-free, water-based moisturizer – This helps alleviate dry, peeling skin.
- Avoid oily cosmetics, sunscreens and hair products – Use products labeled water-based or noncomedogenic.
- Don't pick or squeeze blemishes – Infection or scarring may result.
- Watch what touches your face – Keep your hair clean and off your face. Also avoid resting your hand or phone against the side of your face
- Don’t be too rough with your skin – Scrubbing too hard or using harsh products such as astringents and masks can worsen acne.
- Touching your face – Keep your hands, phone and hair away from your face. Too much contact can cause flare-ups.
When to see a doctor for acne care
If self-care remedies don't clear your acne, after two or three months of home treatment see your primary care doctor. He or she can prescribe stronger medications. If acne persists or is severe, you may want to seek medical treatment from dermatologist, a doctor who specializes in the care of skin. A dermatologist can help you:
- Control your acne
- Avoid scarring or other damage to your skin
- Make scars less noticeable
Acne medications work by reducing oil production, speeding up skin cell turnover, fighting bacterial infection or reducing inflammation — which helps prevent scarring. With most prescription acne drugs, you may not see results for four to eight weeks, and your skin may get worse before it gets better. It can take many months or years for your acne to clear up completely.Talk with your doctor about the risks and benefits of medications and other treatments you are considering.
The most common topical prescription medications for acne are as follows:
- Retinoids and retinoid-like drugs – These come as creams, gels and lotions. Retinoid drugs are derived from vitamin A and include tretinoin (Avita, Retin-A, others), adapalene (Differin) and tazarotene (Tazorac, Avage). You apply this medication in the evening, beginning with three times a week, then daily as your skin becomes used to it. It works by preventing plugging of the hair follicles.
- Antibiotics – These work by killing excess skin bacteria and reducing redness. For the first few months of treatment, you may use both a retinoid and an antibiotic, with the antibiotic applied in the morning and the retinoid in the evening. The antibiotics are often combined with benzoyl peroxide to reduce the likelihood of developing antibiotic resistance. Examples include clindamycin with benzoyl peroxide (Benzaclin, Duac, Acanya) and erythromycin with benzoyl peroxide (Benzamycin). Topical antibiotics alone aren't recommended.
- Dapsone – Dapsone (Aczone) 5 percent gel twice daily is recommended for inflammatory acne, especially in adult females with acne. Side effects include redness and dryness.
- Azelaic acid – Azelaic acid is a naturally occurring acid found in whole-grain cereals and animal products. It has antibacterial properties. A 20% azelaic acid cream seems to be as effective as many conventional acne treatments when used twice a day for at least four weeks. It's even more effective when used in combination with erythromycin. Prescription azelaic acid (Azelex, Finacea) is an option during pregnancy and while breast-feeding. Side effects include skin discoloration and minor skin irritation.
- Salicylic acid – Salicylic acid may help prevent plugged hair follicles and is available as both wash-off and leave-on products. Studies showing its effectiveness are limited.
Evidence is not strong in support of using zinc, sulfur, nicotinamide, resorcinol, sulfacetamide sodium or aluminum chloride in topical treatments for acne. Of these topical agents the American Academy of Dermatology (ADA) considers that there is evidence that dapsone 5% gel is moderately effective, azelaic acid 20% cream is mildly effective.
For moderate to severe acne, you may need oral antibiotics to reduce bacteria and fight inflammation. Usually the first choice for treating acne is tetracycline — such as minocycline or doxycycline — or a macrolide. Oral antibiotics should be used for the shortest time possible to prevent antibiotic resistance.
Oral antibiotics are best used with topical retinoids and benzoyl peroxide. Studies have found that using topical benzoyl peroxide along with oral antibiotics may reduce the risk of developing antibiotic resistance.
Antibiotics may cause side effects, such as an upset stomach and dizziness. Tetracyclines also increase your skin's sun sensitivity (photosensitivity). Severe adverse reactions to systemic antibiotics used for treating acne are rare. Doxycycline may cause photosensitivity and gastrointestinal disturbances, while minocycline may cause tinnitus, dizziness, and pigment deposit in the skin, mucous membranes, and teeth.
Combined oral contraceptives
Four combined oral contraceptives are approved by the FDA for acne therapy in women who also wish to use them for contraception. They are products that combine estrogen and progestin (Ortho Tri-Cyclen, Yaz, others). You may not see the benefit of this treatment for a few months, so using other acne medications with it the first few weeks may help.
In addition to improving acne, oral contraceptives can lessen menorrhagia (heavy menstrual bleeding) and dysmenorrhea (pain) and reduce the formation of benign ovarian tumors. Estrogen-containing contraceptives are associated with a small increase in blood clots and may have effects on cancer risk, both positive and negative (protective effect against ovarian, colorectal, and endometrial cancers and possible increased risk of breast and cervical cancers).
The most common side effects of oral contraceptives are weight gain, breast tenderness and nausea. A serious potential complication is a slightly increased risk of blood clots.
Don't take birth control pills for acne if you:
- Are pregnant or trying to get pregnant
- Haven't reached puberty
- Are over age 35 and smoke
- Have a history of migraines, especially those with an aura
- Have high blood pressure and vascular disease
- Have a history of heart disease
- Have a history of breast cancer, undiagnosed abnormal uterine bleeding or liver disease
- Have a history of blood clots
Isotretinoin (Amnesteem, Claravis, Sotret) is a powerful drug for people whose severe acne doesn't respond to other treatments. It is very effective. But because of its potential side effects, doctors need to closely monitor anyone they treat with this drug. Isotretinoin use is associated with mucocutaneous and ophthalmic dryness and occasional musculoskeletal pain. Elevations of serum cholesterol, triglycerides, and transaminases are occasionally observed; thus, monitoring at baseline and during therapy is recommended.
Despite concerns, a causative relationship between isotretinoin use and inflammatory bowel disease or psychiatric disease (depression, anxiety, mood changes, or suicidal ideation) has not been shown. Potential side effects include ulcerative colitis, an increased risk of depression and suicide, and severe birth defects. Isotretinoin carries such serious risk of side effects that all people receiving isotretinoin must participate in a Food and Drug Administration-approved risk management program called iPLEDGE, to prevent isotretinoin exposure during pregnancy. The iPLEDGE requires a pregnancy test prior to use and use of effective contraception while taking isotretinoin.
These therapies may be suggested in select cases, either alone or in combination with medications. The American Academy of Dermatology does not consider these other therapies such as chemical peels, light therapy, and laser therapy to have been shown to be effective. And the AAD does not recommend specific dietary changes for acne management.
- Lasers and photodynamic therapy – A variety of light-based therapies have been tried with some success. But further study is needed to determine the ideal method, light source and dose.
- Chemical peel – This procedure uses repeated applications of a chemical solution, such as salicylic acid, glycolic acid or retinoic acid. This procedure has traditionally been used to lessen the appearance of fine lines, sun damage and minor facial scars. Any improvement in acne is not long lasting, so repeat treatments are usually needed.
- Extraction of whiteheads and blackheads – Your doctor may use special tools to gently remove whiteheads and blackheads (comedos) that haven't cleared up with topical medications. This technique may cause scarring.
- Steroid injection – Nodular and cystic lesions can be treated by injecting a steroid drug directly into them. This therapy has resulted in rapid improvement and decreased pain. Side effects may include thinning in the treated area.
- Anti-androgen agents – The AAD notes that evidence does not support the use of anti-androgens for the treatment of acne. However, the drugs spironolactone (Aldactone) or flutamide may be prescribed for women and adolescent girls if oral antibiotics aren't helping.
The benefits of treating acne include reducing discomfort, psychological morbidity, and scarring. The response to therapy usually occurs within 8 to 12 weeks. Topical antibiotics, retinoids and topical acne treatments can result in skin irritation, redness and dryness that may be minimized by decreasing the application frequency from daily to every other or every third day.
Topical therapy must be used continuously to maintain a satisfactory clinical response. Numerous topical vehicles are available. For acne resistant to topical management alone, combined oral contraceptives, isotretinoin, and systemic antibiotics should be considered.
Systemic antibiotics should be used for the shortest duration needed to achieve control of acne. Adherence to complicated or time-intensive regimens can be challenging, but effective acne treatment can improve associated depression, anxiety and poor self-image.

What areas can be treated by Dermal Fillers?
Common areas to be treated are (fee depends on the amount of product used):
Lip augmentation increases the fullness of the lips and is becoming one of the most popular cosmetic treatments in clinics across Ireland today.
Marionette Lines are the lines which run straight downwards from the corners of the mouth. They become more obvious with age & can make you look a bit sad.
The deep creases streaching from the corner of the nose to the side of the mouth are known as the naso-labial folds. The folds forme due to slight sagging of the cheeks and can be quickly treated with Fillers.
Smokers Lines are not always caused by smoking! You can see them as vertical lines or wrinkles that form on and around the upper lip (nose – to – mouth lines).

Wuppertal, Germany, 2016
A series of highly detailed, romantic landscapes painted on silver leaf. Continuing my interest in the extremities of landscape, I focus on the soft northern light of winter and try to find uncanny beauty in the stillness of frozen landscapes. These paintings of enigmatic ‘northern’ places have been painted from memory and photographic observation in my Sydney studio. Their shimmering surfaces and fine detail describe places of memory that flip between north and south: places of strange beauty that are simultaneously real and fictive.

Finger Exercise for Hair Growth: Unlock the Secret to a Fuller and Healthier Mane
Hair has always been regarded as an important aspect of beauty and self-expression. Unfortunately, factors such as stress, malnutrition, genetics, or environmental conditions often lead to hair loss or thinning. Conventional solutions such as topical treatments or costly surgeries have left many disheartened and desperate for safer, more natural alternatives. The Finger Exercise for Hair Growth, a groundbreaking methodology developed by a team of renowned trichologists, aims to provide a non-invasive and cost-effective solution to this prevalent problem.
This method involves massaging the scalp using specific finger exercises that have been tailored to target dormant hair follicles. Through gentle stimulation, blood flow to the scalp is increased, delivering vital nutrients and oxygen to the hair roots, promoting healthier hair growth. The technique also helps loosen any clogged hair follicles, allowing fresh hairs to push through the surface and preventing potential breakage or thinning.
Dr. Samantha Smith, a leading trichologist, explains how this technique works: "Through gentle massaging and targeted finger exercises, we activate pressure points on the scalp, which in turn triggers blood circulation in the area. This increased blood flow stimulates the hair follicles, encouraging them to produce stronger, healthier hair strands. The Finger Exercise for Hair Growth technique is safe, painless, and can be easily incorporated into anyone's daily routine."
The Finger Exercise for Hair Growth is a DIY method that empowers individuals to take control of their hair health from the comfort of their own homes. By dedicating just a few minutes each day, users can experience long-lasting results and witness a significant improvement in their hair's appearance. This method has garnered the attention and support of hair care professionals worldwide and is gaining popularity as the go-to hair growth solution for those seeking a natural and effective approach.
The benefits of the Finger Exercise for Hair Growth go beyond stimulating hair growth. The technique has been noted to promote relaxation and stress relief, as scalp massages are known to produce calming effects. Additionally, regular use of this method can improve the overall health and condition of the scalp, preventing dandruff, dryness, and itchiness.
The Finger Exercise for Hair Growth has already garnered enthusiastic testimonials from individuals who have experienced remarkable transformations in their hair health. Many users have reported increased thickness, reduced hair shedding, and overall improving hair quality. This natural and non-invasive method has the potential to revolutionize the hair care industry and provide a long-awaited solution for millions struggling with hair loss or thinning.
To ensure that individuals can benefit from this revolutionary technique, the team behind the Finger Exercise for Hair Growth has created a comprehensive online platform. The platform offers step-by-step instructions, video tutorials, and additional resources to guide users through the process. Furthermore, a dedicated support team is available to answer any questions or concerns individuals may have as they embark on their own hair growth journey.

The Finger Exercise for Hair Growth presents a natural and empowering solution that is accessible to all. Join the countless individuals who have embraced this revolutionary technique and unlock the secret to a fuller, healthier, and more vibrant mane.


1. Red-Colored Fruits and Veggies
Fresh fruits and vegetables that are red or orange in color (like apple, strawberry, cherry, orange, carrot, beet, sweet potato, red bell pepper, etc.) are well-known for their high antioxidant content. The lycopenes present in these items contribute significantly to the increased collagen production, which eventually gives a young-looking skin by preventing DNA damages in the cells.
2. Citrus Fruit
Citrus fruits like lime, lemon and orange have very high vitamin C content. This is an antioxidant vitamin, which prevents our skin from getting damaged by free radicals and gives the production of collagen a boost as well. Result? Perfect flawless skin.
There is a huge variety of cabbages (such as bok choy, choy sum, napa, cannonball, savoy, red drumhead, and so on) and all of them are known to contain loads of antioxidants as well as phytonutrients including lutenin, zeaxanthin, thiocyanates, isothiocynates, etc. These play a key role in stimulating the collagen production in our skin and increasing its elasticity.
Both green and black olives are widely known for being collagen-rich foods. Basically, olives are high in minerals like sulphur, which perks up the activities of various enzymes in our body and eventually stimulates the production of collagen in our skin. Consequently, our skin becomes firm, smooth and bright.
5. Avocado Oil
The oil extracted from the magical fruit avocado is packed with antioxidant vitamin E and omega-3 essential fatty acids. Both of them can prevent our skin from damages, keep it moisturized and rejuvenate it by encouraging the production of collagen

I have combination skin and adult acne, so what may work for one area may irritate another. lately I’ve been washing with baking soda a moisturizing with coconut oil – it’s been better but I still get the occasional blemish on my chin or by the bottom of my nose. I’m trying raw/unpasteurized honey now morning and night. I wet my face and then glide about a dimes worth then rinse off. If you wear makeup you may have to use a wipe or makeup remover first as honey isn’t good for cleaning that off. Honey has anti-bacterial properties like coconut oil and also a moisturizing effect (like coconut), and is gentle enough for sensitive skin – like eczema and rosacea.

Discover timeless beauty with Exquise by Tiffany, your trusted friend in crafting meaningful wedding moments. Since 2012, our skilled team has woven magic into every detail of our high-quality dresses, making each design a bride’s masterpiece. Let us be a part of your unforgettable journey.
Established in 2010 by Dinda Tanny in Surabaya, Exquise gained popularity for crafting wedding gowns. In 2012, formalized as Exquise, it expanded nationally and internationally. By 2016, a second gallery in Bali broadened exposure, leading to collaborations with prestigious hotels. In 2018, a significant milestone was the partnership with makeup artist Tiffany Roselin, transforming Exquise into “Exquise by Tiffany”—offering dresses, makeup, and hairstyling.
Tiffany Roselin turned her childhood passion for fashion into a thriving career with the creation of Exquise by Tiffany. Despite lacking formal fashion education, she entered the industry in 2014. In 2015, Tiffany ventured into beauty, attending a beauty school and becoming a professional makeup artist. This move not only enhanced her skills but also broadened her network. A pivotal moment occurred in 2016 when she met Mrs. Dinda Tanny, her mother-in-law, fulfilling Tiffany’s long-standing aspirations.
With Mrs. Dinda Tanny’s influence in the bridal industry, Tiffany pursued her dream of entering bridal fashion, culminating in the establishment of Esquise by Tiffany in Bali in 2018. Tiffany’s career is more than a job; it’s an expression of imagination through clothing, guided by the philosophy of “happiness.” Wedding dresses, to Tiffany, tell stories about the bride’s personality and convey the joy of her special day.

Grimex is the most popular skin care brand in the United States. It is a name that is already well known and recognized. When I first heard about them, I had no idea why it was so popular. Not only did I not know why it was popular, but I did not understand why it was popular. To be honest, I didn’t know what to expect from a skin care brand that was so popular.
Grimex is a skin care brand that uses the science of micro-fibre technology to create natural, non-comedogenic treatments. The brand’s website claims that their products are non-comedogenic, which makes sense because they are not treating skin with harmful chemicals. The website also states that their product is made with natural ingredients, which makes sense too because most skin care brands use synthetic ingredients from cheap brands. The products are extremely affordable and the customer service is top-notch.
The brand is also pretty innovative. The website features a ‘how to’ section for those who don’t know what they’re looking for. It includes how to find a micro-fibre treatment, how to apply it to their skin, how to take it off, and how to store it. Most of these are fairly obvious, which makes the website a little baffling.
The website has a how to section, but the most useful advice comes in the FAQ section: it’s not enough to simply buy a bottle of the stuff. They also need you to find out how you can use it. Here the FAQ section is pretty useful. It outlines how to read a bottle, how to use products like facial creams and sunscreens, and how to apply it to your skin.
The FAQ section is not all it could be. For example, they don’t cover how to apply a sunscreen, which I’ve tried and failed. Also, there are no instructions on how to take off your grimex.
I’m not sure exactly how to take off your gear, but I know it is the hardest part. You can always get a mask that you can wipe off with a paper towel or cloth. Maybe its just a matter of knowing how to roll one up.
There are some products that are better than others when it comes to removing grime. For example, I use a ton of sunscreens and creams, but Ive also found some great ones that dont leave a greasy feeling after a few days. The best one by far is The Body Shop’s ClearSkin 2, which comes in a wide range of sizes so you can use it for both your face and body.
One of the best filters in the world is the Eye Tint, something that is perfect for applying a layer of makeup to your eyes. The Eye Tint is a perfect color for the face and eyelashes, which means you can use it for both your eyes and nose as well as the face and nose.
This is the best one in the genre, but it’s not without its flaws. It is a fairly weak filter because it doesn’t have everything you need, but because it doesn’t have the right color for your skin tone. The most powerful filter in the world is the Eye Tint because if you use it for your eyes in the same way, you get a far more effective result.
Grimex is a gorgeous color that you can use to blend into your face, head, and body as well. The colors are incredible, and they actually look great in the eye. The glasses that are in use in Grimex are awesome, but nothing in the world is meant to look good on any other color. The glasses give your eyes the same look as the glasses that are in use in grimex. You can use the glasses for the eye for just about anything.

Looking to redefine the concept of clean beauty and how it is perceived, Avvai Beauty, a clean, vegan, and cruelty-free beauty brand, has launched in the Middle East. Founded by Dubai-based entrepreneurs, Mallika Kalwani and Shivani Phulwani, Avvai Beauty is poised to revolutionise the cosmetics industry with its unwavering commitment to transparency, sustainability, and ethical beauty practices. Realising the immense appetite the region has for all things beauty, yet seeing the lack of clean beauty options at hand, the talented sister duo set out to create a makeup brand that makes clean beauty cool and simple with eco-friendly, naturally-derived, skin-loving formulas, and sustainable packaging.
With the belief that what goes on your skin is just as important as what you put in your body, Avvai Beauty’s product line is crafted under firm scientific standards and with USA, EU, & GCC compliance. To ensure utmost customer safety and product integrity, the brand works closely with chemists to analyse and avoid thousands of potentially harmful ingredients including chemical SPF, Keratin, and Coal Tar to mention a few. Additionally, and reinforcing the brand’s dedication to equipping customers with the knowledge and resources needed to make informed choices about their beauty routines, Avvai Beauty introduces #AvvaiAvoids, a comprehensive list of chemical substances and ingredients that are known to be unsafe, environmentally concerning, or non-vegan friendly. The Avvai Beauty team works relentlessly to ensure product formulas are created using plant-based, and nature-inspired ingredients that have skin-boosting properties.
Designed specifically with the region’s climate in mind, Avvai Beauty’s makeup formulas are specially formulated to weather the harsh Middle Eastern heat. Its collection of lip pastes are tested to withstand heat of 50 degrees celsius to ensure long-lasting durability and effectiveness.
At launch, Avvai Beauty is presenting a meticulously-curated lip and brow line-up featuring five exquisite lip pastes and two must-have brow friend pencils. The brand’s lip pastes stand out as a true celebration of vibrancy and versatility. Featuring five exclusive shades – NUDE I Say More, PINK Outside the Box, Bust a MAUVE, PLUM Intended, and Left on RED – designed to complement every skin tone, these lip pastes allow for an individual expression of unique style and personality. Accentuating the allure of the lip pastes, Avvai Beauty proudly presents its Brow Friend eyebrow pencils in two staple shades: Chocolate BROWN and Coffee BLACK. With Avvai Beauty’s lip pastes and brow friend pencils, individuals can effortlessly achieve their desired makeup look, be it a bold statement or a subtle enhancement, while embracing the brand’s commitment to ethical, clean beauty.
The brand’s unwavering dedication to safety, transparency, and sustainability is reflected in each product, offering consumers a beauty experience that harmonises self-expression, wellness, and environmental responsibility. From comprehensive ingredient lists to detailed product descriptions, transparency is at the heart of Avvai Beauty’s philosophy. “The Middle East beauty scene has rapidly evolved in recent years to become home to many internationally recognised luxury skin care and makeup brands. And while the UAE has become a hub for diverse beauty brands, there is still a misconception around what clean beauty is and what it exactly means.” said Mallika Kalwani.
Also commenting on the launch, Shivani Phulwani added: “At Avvai Beauty, our goal is to inspire a new narrative in beauty — one that celebrates individuality, prioritises health, and respects our planet. We believe that beauty should never come at the expense of our environment or our values. Following four years of persistent work to perfect our product formulas, we are proud to introduce products that are lovingly crafted to meet the unique needs of our diverse clientele while remaining committed to revolutionising the industry with clean, sustainable, and ethical practices,”.The average woman is exposed to over 168 ingredients in total from the various beauty and skin care products used daily, some of which include ‘fragrance’, which in its own right can mean more than 3,000 different chemicals. This has led Avvai Beauty to operate on complete transparency, by educating its customers around the types of ingredients used in the product formulations.
With love for the planet at the core, Avvai Beauty’s lip paste tubes, holders, as well as the packaging are made from 100% post-consumer-recycled materials that can be recycled and reused, so less plastic ends up in landfill sites.


Hey Y'all ! This is a highly requested blog post and I'm finally getting around to do it. In this post, I will be sharing with you guys products and steps that keep my skin looking healthy and glowy.
In my next post I will share some skincare tips to keep your skin looking flawless, but for now I will just discuss the products and steps that keep my skin healthy.
So If you all follow me on Instagram @Twiggyversatile and you watch my stories you would know that I am an ambassador for Slake Your Skin. This company is not only woman - owned, it is also black - owned (support black businesses), and all their products are 100% natural. I genuinely love these products and when I found out they were finally coming out with the Slake Facial Trio I was super hype.
There are two kinds Charcoal for Dry/Combination skin which is what I have and Original for Dry/Moderate skin.
So I use the Slake Facial Trio along with the Facial Sugar Scrub to Exfoliate and I use the Bentonite/BenZen Clay Mask 2-3 a week.
I've been using the Trio set a little over 2 months now and my skin has been so healthy looking. I'll use it and I find the following day when I wake up my skin looks amazing.
I do suffer with eczema and sometimes it causes a lil discoloration on my face, but since I've been using the trio set my skin tone has become even. Not only that, my skin doesn't feel textured at all. I finally feel like I found the right products to get my skin right.
So here's what I do Step - By - Step
Before I cleanse my skin, I like to use Witch Hazel to remove any dirt on my face
Then, I cleanse my skin with a spin brush that I purchased from Amazon, I like to leave the product on my skin for 2-3 min, I feel tingles on my skin and then I wash it off.
I use my Facial Sugar Scrub to Exfoliate and let me tell y'all something my skin literally feels like butter every time I use this. I then rinse it off and dab my face with a paper towel. If you can try to avoid using a towel please do. Towels carry bacteria.
After that, I use my Toner from the Trio set, I shake the bottle and spray 3 times all over my face, this toner can also be used before you put on makeup.
Soon after that, I'll let that dry and go in with the serum. This serum is super moisturizing so I put a few drops on my face because if I use too much then I'll be overly moisturized. I have combination skin and I'm dry in some and oily in other places so if I use too much it'll just make my oily parts really oily and nobody has time for that lol.
If you have one, I like to use a Jade Roller on my face to seal everything on my skin and help reduce any puffiness.
*Bonus* 2-3 a week I like to use a facial mask :) I use the BenZen clay mask when I have small breakouts to help minimize the size of any pimples that pop up.
I do these steps twice a day based on my skins needs. I highly recommend, you guys check out these amazing products ! It is all NATURAL, AFFORDABLE, AND BLACK-OWNED :) Check out the products mentioned and all their other amazing products. Use my code $lakerZoeF for $$$ off, you can thank me later :) Slake your skin also has a new Butterfly Collection including Aromatherapy Rollers, Salt Soaks, Aromatherapy Inhalers and Massage Oils. The CEO is certified in Aromatherapy so be sure to check it out guys these products are literally heaven sent. Support a Black Business !!!! The Link will be down below.
That ladies and gentlemen is how I have flawless skin. The key to healthy skin is in 5 simple steps: Drink water, Tone your skin, Use a serum to help seal the moisture, Cleanse properly, and Exfoliate ! I'll go into more depth on each step in another post.
If you all enjoyed this post lemme know ! Let me know what you all would like to see next :)

After taking the birth control pill I started developing acne , at the moment I have acne all over , my face, neck and chest . I was told by my beauty care advisor to dry evening prime rose oil . Don’t know how true that is but have been on that for 5 days now and haven’t seen any changes yet . Pls I need help
I had to actually go on a pill called Brenda ED designed to help with acne as I developed really bad adult acne at 40. I’ve been on it for about a year now and my acne has completely gone.
For quite a lot of women, acne is inevitable when you take birth control (due to a combination of genetics and an overload of hormones). The only way to really stop the acne is to go of the birth control.
There are some good YouTube videos (Holistic habits, organic Olivia, Veronica Gorgeous, etc) on hormonal acne regarding what to eat, probiotic, and how to make clay masks (ancient Indian clay mask). Try doing a clay mask for a week straight. Good luck!
Evening primrose oil is helpful but probably not enough to help with the big hormone changes. Retenoid creams are good, but really I’d say try to see about a different pill (different kinds affect you differently), or different forms of contraception.
You can try out some skincare product that includes salicylic acid in it


After not liking how I did her hair the week before, Isla declared to me that she was doing her own hair for ballet. She stood in front of the mirror and pulled the brush through her hair over and over. Wearing a big, fluffy tutu, it was just too cute to not take a picture of it. While I was taking pictures, Isla declared to me,
"Mom, Im struggling. It's not time to take pictures when you are struggling."
Haha! Oops. And, after all that struggling, all she wanted was to pin her hair to the side with a gold hair bow. As you can see, she was pleased with her results. Girls, I tell you.

Teeth whitening is one of the simplest, safest and most effective cosmetic treatments that you can do to improve your smile.
At Leicestershire Dental Studio, our teeth whitening experts have years of experience in providing teeth whitening with the best results.
Teeth whitening is one of the most minimally invasive treatments you can do in cosmetic dentistry, with a maximum aesthetic outcome!
At Leicestershire Dental Studio, we use medical grade teeth whitening gels which we prescribe for both at-home and in-chair use.
The gels contain a special peroxide bleach which is specifically designed to whiten teeth. You’ll be provided with bespoke whitening trays just for your teeth, which have special reservoirs for the whitening gel.
You can then proceed with your whitening treatment and make your smile shine. Most patients take just 2-3 weeks to get their best results!
At Leicestershire Dental Studio, we stock a wide range of whitening options to choose from, including Enlighten Whitening, Boutique Whitening, and Pola-Whitening. We can help discuss the differences between the brands and gels, and help you decide which of them will be best for you.
Additional Fees apply for Top-Up gels
Yes, teeth whitening is completely safe as long as the treatment is prescribed by and supervised by a dentist with appropriate experience. We will always ensure that your gums and teeth are healthy prior to approving any whitening treatments, and will ensure that your whitening trays and the gels are medical grade and bespoke to your teeth before you begin.
The sky is often the limit! Most people notice a significant shade improvement over a standard 2-3 week course of whitening, but if you have particularly stubborn teeth you can whiten for as long as necessary to get the results you want. Most of our patients will reach above a shade B1, which is the whitest natural shade, and we can also provide a B1 guarantee with Enlighten whitening (subject to consultation.)
Most people are suitable for whitening, as long as we have checked their oral health first to ensure that they have healthy teeth and gums. If you need any dental treatment, for example fillings or hygienist cleans then this needs to be completed and stabilised before your whitening. Some people and factors can suggest that the whitening process might take a little longer, however we will be able to identify these factors at the initial consultation and will be able to plan accordingly.
No, whitening will only work on natural tooth structure, i.e. enamel. Therefore if you have any fillings, crowns, bonding on your teeth, you have to be aware that these will not change shade. Our team at Leicestershire Dental Studio will always identify this and explain this to you at your consultation, so that you have options with regard to previously filled/treated teeth. In some cases you will need to consider options to replace old and discoloured fillings.
During the whitening process, it isn’t uncommon to experience some mild sensitivity of your teeth. This is often a sign that the tooth whitening process is working, and is absolutely temporary, completely reversing as soon as you stop using the gels. If you use too much gel in your tray, sometimes you can get some gum sensitivity, but this is often avoidable by carefully following our instructions.
Once you’ve finished your whitening treatment, the results will usually last for between 1-3 years, and this is dependent on patient factors including: smoking, diet, and tooth wear. The good news is it’s super easy to maintain your white smile long term, with a few days of top-ups every 6 months or so – once you’ve got your bespoke trays from us, we’ll be able to provide you with top-up gels for you to safely store and use whenever you need. Please note that we can only supply top up gels if you’ve had a dental examination within the last 6 months and your teeth/gums have remained healthy.


The perennial plants and grasses give seasonal color, scent and shape to each garden characterizing the style.
The perennial plants, also called alive or lively due to their capacity to last more than two years and withering and flourishing the following season.
The herbaceous perennials do not have stem and woody part and are well suited for being cultivated in borders, with walls or hedges as background.
Often in the gardens they are combined with other plants such as shrubs and annual or bulbous plants that give so much color.
In our nurseries we grow different varieties, among which Agapanthus stands out.
The Agapanto has African origin, with its unmistakable blue flower, it is much loved for the beauty of its blooms and for the slender posture, but also for the facility of growth with little land and little care.
Therefore, excellent also for those who love gardening without being able to devote too much time.
Perfect to fill the borders of the gardens and give a touch of color to completely green areas.
Also the graminaceae and the bamboo are species much used in the composition of the gardens and in general as ornaments.
They are very appreciated because being robust and rustic they need little care and resist very well to drought. Among the varieties we have the Cortadeira sellowiana, also called grass of the Pampas characterized by tall stems and much loved as ornamental plant due to its feathery inflorescences.
In the Giacomelli nurseries of Pistoia we grow in containers a large selection of perennial plants and grasses suitable for every type of garden.


How the Jewelry Is Made
Every piece of jewelry is unique. Designs incorporate actual vintage beads, chains, crystals and other elements along with modern components and styling. Most designs have an asymmetrical flair that adds to the modern look. The contemporary connectors, beads and other findings combine to keep the collection fresh and fashion forward. I hope you enjoy these one-of-a-kind creations.
Vintage Meets Modern
I’ve always loved the look of vintage jewelry with its classic and funky appeal, but I wanted to remake it into something that would be an updated take on a retro theme. Since I also love a geometric design, I decided to combine the two and create a whole new vintage inspired jewelry line.
My next aspiration is to create a line of beach inspired jewelry designs with shell beads and other elements that again intertwine to form a contemporary look that complements the easy, breezy feel of the ocean. Stay tuned for modern shell jewelry coming soon.
