DIY: HOME MADE LIP SCRUB

-

Have you ever licked your lips and that immediate reaction of squeezing your face and muttering "Hell no, that's some dry chapped lips" hits you?

 Well it's the dry season here in Nigeria and one has to constantly carry a lip gloss around. Even with the constant moisturising of the lips it still gets dry real quick hence you need to exfoliate your lips at least twice a week to keep it soft and (kissable).

 Ingredients
Grounded sugar (1 cup): Sugar is a good humectant hence it keeps the lips hydrated and it's also an excellent exfoliant.

 Lemon (1): Lightens the lips because of it's high vitamin c content

 Honey (1 dessert spoon): Softens the lips

 Oats: (1 dessert spoon): Rich in antioxidants and helps reduce the grainy effect of the sugar granules.

 Method of application

 Mix all ingredients in a bowl and scrub lips with it. Wash off with warm water and apply gloss on lips. This mixture can be used six more times. Store in a refrigerator after first use.

 Exfoliate twice a week and thank me after one month when you see the difference on your lips.

5 Ways To Get Out Of A BAD Mood

We sometimes get into a really bad mood either after having a conversation that didn’t end well, a work meeting that ended on a sour note, a bad hair or dress day or even having a bad mood that you have no clue at the moment as to why you feel so moody or sad.  These feelings can longer and end up ruining the whole day and disrupting a great opportunity for us to live this wonderful life. After the words “Once today goes by, you can NEVER get it back” sank deep into my consciousness and even my sub-consciousness, I take the most of each day and try to enjoy this life.  So here are my 5 ways to snap out  of a bad mode quickly.  1) Acknowledge the reason that put you in a bad mood. Now this is not the time to address it. It’s just for you to recognize that you are in a bad mood and what is causing it.  2) Change environment. Stepping away from the surrounding or change of scenery is the next best step to take if you want to get out of a bad mood. Remaining at the ...

The War Within

The brown rusty leaves rolled over her legs as she sat helpless on the grass. The park was sparsely populated which made it very easy to stay unnoticed. Lifting her head, struggling to see through the heavy clog of tears welling up in her eyes. The day was getting dark, darkness has become her place of solace. She kept a steady gaze at the kids running freely, playing catch while she battled with the decision of either staying back or going home. Home? That house didn’t feel like home and it hasn’t felt like home in a long while. The mind drifted to when she was a child with little or nothing contending for space or attention in her head except for love and the ‘’can do spirit’’, which spurred her to fly without wings and run without shoes to distances that were unimaginable. She lived as free as the wind and that was the bliss of childhood which she fought to get rid of and step into adult shoes. Since stepping into those overly talked about shoes, its been filled with ...

Recently I just discovered something about relationships. It had not really occured to me but I started noticing it lately and I just had to address it. The way people take relationship these days is so baffling. They wake up one morning and out of nowhere they want to be in a relationship. (like it's a child's play or it's worth nothing). The way people prepare for marriage should be the way they should prepare for relationships, since its the first step to marriage. In my own opinion, marriage and relationships are basically the same thing except for the intimacy/sex (which happens in most relationships now and that does not mean it's right) and the blessings from a Priest. The other things are basically the same thing. Being in a relationship entails so much. It's not just a fling, hearts are involved, emotions, ideas, sharing of visions and goals. People in relationships virtually plan their lives together and impact each other directly or indirectly. Am ju...
